Hi! I'm looking for exactly this lens for an Olympus E4100 mount, but I do want the old version of Sigma105mm macro, not the OS... can you get it?

The Sigma 880-101 is an older lens and does not have Macro capabilities. Several websites say it's no longer available as new. The Sigma 883-101 is the replacement for the 880-101 and is Macro capable. I just received this lens for Christmas and have put it through it's paces at Zoo Miami.It's a great lens for amateurs who want quality photos.

Thank you guys, really appreciate you help. I was in confused state in selecting sigma 50-150mm f/2.8 or tamron 70-200mm f/2.8 macro, but after a week study i have selected this sigma 50-150mm which is exactly in my budget. Once again thank you guys.

I had a Canon 50mm 2.5 macro ,it is real reliable, it is an older lens, very sharp also great for portrait work it creates a soft bokeh.

Only if you have an appropriate adapter. The lens was originally created for the Olympus4/3 system cameras. That being said, used as a macro or portrait lens, it gives really nice results.

YES...... I would highly recommend this lens and it is now used as my general lens of choice. To use the macro, it is necessary to stand back further than most lenses but it still produces a very crisp image. The weight of the lens helps to keep the camera steady as it is weighted well making the whole unit more sturdy. So far I have no regrets.

I have. I love it. I'm often using my old Yashinon 50mm/1.2 on it. I also have the same Olympus lens that you do... works great. I shoot on the 7D.

Sorry but I do not know if the 15mmF8 lens has the same mount as the older Olympus Zeiko lenses. If it does it should work. The adapter has worked well (perfectly) with my lenses which includes 50mm 1.4, 50mm 1.2, 35mm 2.8, 300mm 2.8 and a 75-150 zoom. There are all late early 1970's to 80's lenses. I would check to see if Olympus mounts changed and/or whether their current lenses for digital cameras are the same. Good luck.

I'm curious . Did you return or keep your lens and are you satisfied with it ? I'm looking to order one for my camera . Thanks .

I also have not seen this reference in any printed material. All true macros should have this. I have been satisfied with the image quality. My only problem is on auto focus. If the focus has to search and cannot lock focus it falls back to infinity focus even if the close limit is chosen. Otherwise it is a fine lens.

Dear Mr. Varlack, The product I received was exactly as described on the Amazon website. It worked as described and consistent with the reviews. I use is effectively to adapt old Nikon lenses to my Olympus EM5 micro 4/3 camera. You must set everything manually but the optics seem fine. Regards, R.Fisher

it fit mine. Wast of money if you ask me. I wouldn't buy it. I would save your money and get a dedicated macro lens.

I got it a long time ago, but I think you have to specify to Tamron which mount you want. There's one for Canon, an e-mount, and there is probably one for Nikon, too with a different mount.

Brandon. It doesn't say when you asked this question but I figured the answer out. First, I just purchased the last one that a storefront had for $289, so i'm sorry if I stole the lens from you :X. Second, the price is going to be interesting on this lens from here on out. It has been discontinued due to a recently announced new model. The question is how much will this new model cost? To my knowledge that hasn't been answered. I decided to snag it at this price because if the new model is upwards of $400 then it out of my price range anyway. If the new model comes out sub $400 this older model might tank in price. Supply and demand will dictate based on that information. As for big stores, I don't see you having much luck. Most did firesales and liquidated their stock already to mitigate the price risk. I can tell you that this is my first fixed lens for general photography. It hasnt even arrived yet, but when it does I plan to test it out. If its not to my liking I can resell it to you at the price I purchased + the tax I paid + shipping. I would generally just return it but that lowers your chance of it ending up in your hands. If this was a recent post just come back to me and I can show you proof that it hasn't even arrived yet :). Take care!

suggest you visit the Sigma Website to determine whether Sigma sells the lens with a Sony Mount adapter. Initial research into such matters usually resolves many easily answerable questions.

I don't have that lens, however if you call Olympus, they'll be able to tell you or send a replacement cap.

The one that includes "Macro" in the name is the newest version: "Sigma 18-250mm f/3.5-6.3 DC Macro OS HSM". It is smaller, lighter, and has improved close-up capability; hence the inclusion of the "Macro" monniker. The older lens is still available on Amazon for $329 versus $399 for the new one. Hope this helps!
