The 200 mm F/2 prime lens has been years since the market has been a hit, and Sigma has finally brought back one. For portrait work, the lens opens the doors in a unique form that you will not get from the normal 85 mm or 70-200 mm zoom.
Coming from you Manny OrtiseIt shows detailed videos Sigma 200 mm F/2DG OS Sports Lenses in the process. The Ortis moves through a portrait shoot, indicating how the perspective with such a long focal length changes dramatically. Change the entire image, such as small movements, such as one step or a shooting height. The perspective of the lens levels the background and creates a powerful theme appearance, but you need a lot of work distance. In some cases, Ortis stood about 40 feet away to frame a full-body picture, which communicates with the subject.
In addition to portraits, Ortis also tested the lens for baseball in the Wrigley Field. Additional compression allowed them to separate the players from the crowd, which could not match small zooms like 70–200 mm f/2.8. He notes that while the lens is heavier than a specific picture lens, it is still lighter than the canon’s 200 mm F/2, shaving about a pound and a half. Weight decreases when you are handholding for a long time stretch. It also makes Sigma fit to fit a standard camera bag that enhances the obstacles that you will actually bring with it.

Is it that the f/2 aperture of Sigma is compared to 135 mm F/1.8 or 70–200 mm F/2.8. Ortis suggests that 135 mm can give you about 70% of the same look, but 200 mm F/2 still has a special character. The additional compression combined with that wide aperture makes a three-dimensional pop that simply does not appear with f/2.8. For the Games, the foggy crowd and isolated players show why this lens has appealed beyond painting.
Ortis also breaks physical characteristics. The lens includes a focus limit, custom switch, aperture lock, aperture click on/off, and three adaptable AFL buttons. Image stabilization consists of two modes: standard and panning, it makes it versatile for both static and moving subjects. Compared to the version of the canon, which costs $ 5,700, Sigma priced at $ 3,299. It is still expensive, but if you are considering this type of lens then the price difference is quite big.
