This review relates to lens repair. I dropped my 150-600 telephoto lens on a rock (and had sand in…read morethe lens/issues with focus). I shipped it to Sigma from NYC last week and I have it back in my hands today as good as new! Their customer service was communicative throughout the repair process and really put me at ease. I was happy to have it back so quickly. This repair is a third of the cost of buying a new lens so I'm happy that it worked out.

I'm a Canon girl, but truth be told, my favorite lens is the Sigma Art 14-24. It has beautiful…read morecolor rendering and the wide angle is unmatched for architectural photos. So when it stopped working, making a crunchy sound when the focus barrel turned, my thought was to just buy a new one until I dug in and realized, Canon has a repair center, Sigma must offer it too. Lo and behold, they do... unfortunately it's on the other side of the country from me so it took sending it to them overnight and patiently waiting for them to repair. All in all shipping to New York, to payment, to shipping back to me in California, the process took a month... BUT my lens is good as new after paying the $380 fee all in... which is much more reasonable than paying $1300 for a new lens. I didn't mention the lens coating being worn in my work order but fixed that too anyway. While its not close by and drivable like Canon repair in Southern California, it's absolutely worth using their Sigma repair service if you can wait a while to get it.
