Comments about 70-300mm f/4-5.6 DG Macro Autofocus Lens for Sigma Cameras:
Even though the info says it's only for Sigma camera's, it works very well on my Nikon D90. The lens focus is very fast and allows you to take sharp pictures. I read somewhere else online that the Sigma lens is compatible with the SLR nikon cameras and that the quality is of the lens is excellent choice for the value of the len's. I would recommend this lens to all level's of photography.
