Well After My Last Thread Which Lens . I Went For The 135 -400
After 3 Day Trial Which I Sapose Is Not Long I Found That Its Was Not Long Anoth Searched To Often With Object Of Simaler Colour.
Have Since Taken It Back And Ordered The Bigma Dg
The Question Is Cant Realy Find Much On This Apart From The Extra Coatinging On The Rear Glass . Has Any One Got This Lens If So Wots It Like Any Pic Would Be Great.
Many Thanks

I think that Snappy has recently switched from the old Bigma to the DG. Check out his gallery!!!

If the DG is much better than the original then it must be good!!!! Great value when compared to other lenses.

Hi
My wife and I bought this lens recently to use with our Canon 350D and have been pretty happy with it so far, neither of us are experienced photographers, but the joy of digital is its free too practice. I say go for it, it's reasonably priced but just remember you wont get the quality of a prime lens! I find that the Digi Bigma works best in bright conditions. I have seen some stunning shots taken with it by more experienced photographers so the possibilities are certainly there.
