In our tests, close focusing averaged around 12 inches, and magnification 1:3.1. Quiet in operation, and sharpness was above average on our optical bench.
WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW:
Like Sigma's other DC (for Digital Camera) lenses, the 18-125mm f/3.5-5.6 is mountable only on DSLRs with APS-scaled image sensors. (You'll get severe edge vignetting on a 35mm camera.) This $269 optic will be available in the Olympus E-series mount, the most affordable lens for Olympus E-1 and Evolt owners.
