Product Overview

Sigma 70-200 F2.8 DG OS HSM | Sport is a telephoto zoom lens for Canon EF-mount, Nikon F-mount, and Sigma SA-mount. It covers the full-frame image circle. Introduced by Sigma in 2018, it has 24 elements in 22 groups.
Photographers will be pleased by the fact that the lens is internally-zooming, meaning that the barrel does not extend when the focal length is changed. This helps balance and weather sealing; it is also great for long-term durability, as there is less chance for moisture and dirt to get in. For incremental weathers, Sigma is kind enough to include weather sealing.
As a telephoto zoom lens with a bright maximum aperture, the 70-200 F2.8 DG OS HSM is well suited for sports and portrait photography. Built-in image stabilization makes the lens easier to use handheld, and can be quite valuable for landscape works. Owners will also like the available tripod collar.

Reviewers from pcmag have found the following***:
At 70mm f/2.8 it manages 3,817 lines on a center-weighted evaluation. Resolution is just shy of excellent at f/4 (3,913 lines) The weakest performance is at 200mm. There's a little bit of barrel distortion at 70mm, but it's not enough to notice in most shots.
