The 300mm F2.8 lens with a large aperture is a popular choice among professional photographers due to its excellent image quality and low f-stop number. With the idea of taking this specification to the next level with a powerful zoom function, Sigma developed the 120-300mm F2.8 zoom lens. Composing shots with conventional 300mm lenses can be challenging. At sporting events, stage performances, and other situations where changing positions is difficult, the desired shot is often lost when switching lenses. With a 120-300mm zoom lens with a large aperture (F2.8), most lens changes become unnecessary, allowing the photographer to adjust the zoom and easily achieve the desired composition. Even in the most challenging situations, this lens enables true photographic expression.

Mit Anfangsblende 2,8 und einer Brennweite von 300 mm ist das Sigma 2,8/120-300 mm DG OS HSM (S) fraglos ein enormes Zoom, für das man auch immerhin 3000 Euro hinblättern muss. Seine optische Leistung geht aber auch in Ordnung. Die Unterschiede zwischen langen und kurzen Brennweiten sind nicht zu groß, und selbst die offene Blende ist trotz sichtbarer Einschränkungen in den Bildecken nutzbar...
Bei der Auflösung zeigt das Sigma EX 2,8 / 120-300 mm DG OS HSM im Test gute Werte, wobei auch der Autofokus mit leichten Abstrichen gut ist. In einem sehr guten Bereich bewegen sich zudem die sehr hohe Objektivgüte und auch die Ausstattung kann sich sehen lassen.
