70-200mm F2.8 DG OS HSM | Sports overview
The Sigma 70-200mm F2.8 DG OS HSM | Sports is a 70–200mm f/2.8 zoom for full-frame cameras on Canon EF / EF-S and Nikon F, announced by Sigma in September 2018. 41 cameras we track take it without an adapter. It is discontinued, so new stock may be limited.
Going by its spec sheet, it suits portraits. It is a weaker pick for travelling light.
New, it sells for A$1,849 to A$1,999.95 at the 2 stores we track in Australia that have it in stock.
Worth comparing it with the Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 70-200mm f/2.8E FL ED VR, Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS III USM and Tamron SP 70-200mm F/2.8 Di VC USD.
