Were these shot hand-held or with a tripod? Not to say that one could not express an opinion if they were hand held but comparison between the two lenses would be meaningless - e.g on one of the shots you may have not held the lens quite as steady as the other (at macro distances you would only have to move the lens a tad to render it out of focus).Well seeing as I had nothing to do this morning, I thought I would try and take the same image of a fly on a rhubarb leaf with the Sigma 150mm and the Canon 100mm IS and crop and process it exactly the same, just going in the house and changing the lens over, on the same leaf its a different fly one is older than the other, anyway here is the two shots can you see if one is better than the other ?
Both handheld
It would be interesting to see a comparison between the two under controlled conditions: Static subject at macro distance, Tripod and remote release (or timer). That way you would have a fair comparison.
Edit: I see they were both hand held so my post is applicable IMO.
