I am thinking about buying these two lenses is anyone awhere of any problems with these lenses and the 10D. Also, does anyone have any feedback on these lenses. How do the Ex Sigma Lenses stand up against the canon non L lenses and against the L lenses in general.

Zoom Normal-Telephoto 50-500mm f/4.0-6.3 EX APO RF HSM Autofocus Lens for Canon EOS

Zoom Super Wide Angle 15-30mm f/3.5-4.5 EX Aspherical DG DF Autofocus Lens for Canon EOS


My current lense is the 28-135 IS canon lense and I am thinking that these two lenses will fill out my bag with the both ends of the spectrum for the cost of one L canon 100-400.

Thanks for the help

I have both sigma lenses the 50-500 works well with My D10 & 1D. I like my 100-400 Canon better because it is sharper. Thw 15-35 has a couple of issues . It doesn't seem to meter properly in bright light and the photos are always washed out. It does fine in the shad and low light. I ussed a freinds Canon 17-35 f2.8 shooting the same shots and did not have the issue. Canon EOS Canon EOS lens more compatible EOS 100-400 stabiiized lens focus is quicker and shaper
see http://danphoto1.tripod.com scrol down to airshow photos and look at them the soft ones are with the 50-500mm Sigma. But there are some good ons with that lens. You get what you pay for and Canon in my book just works better with Canon.
