Lens Showdown: Canon vs. Sigma 70-200mm f2.8

The Canon and Sigma 70-200 f/2.8 lenses each retail between $1300 and $1400, so which one is right for you? The Canon offers slightly better durability and image quality, but the Sigma offers optical image stabilization (which is only available on Canon’s $1800 equivalent lens). I did a few test and explained my opinions on the comparison. Regardless of which lens you choose, a good reliable and fast 70-200mm lens is an essential part of any photographer/videographer’s gear kit. •Canon 70-200 2.8 https://geni.us/jFxG (Amazon) •Sigma 70-200 2.8 https://geni.us/MqjoR0G (Amazon) Episode 57: Lens Showdown: Canon vs. Sigma 70-200m f2.8! » Ready to start your own podcast?
