Needed a macro with a little more reach, so I begrudgingly sold off my razor-sharp Canon 100/2.8 USM macro and picked up the Sigma 150 APO DG HSM macro. Wasn't sure what to expect since I had some bad luck with other Sigma lenses, and knew what the Canon macro was capable of delivering. Took a few test shots with the Sigma, and I'm really surprised...the lens is living up to its reputation. These are straight from the camera, shot in RAW and converted to JPG...no other PP:

Yeah, it's a high quality lens. I also absolutely love the look and feel of it in your hand. It is a really well constructed lens. The bokeh on it is outstanding as well.
