The Sigma 18-250mm F3.5-6.3 DC OS HSM is a very talented multi-tasker, as the reach and range of the images shown in the story illustrate. It’s a long walk from water’s edge to the beach parking lot past those distant dunes. And it’s 94 steps plus a ladder up that distant lighthouse. I was able to lighten my bag significantly by choosing to shoot with a multi-zoom on this photo adventure. Packing a bunch of different lenses may have given me a bit wider view here or there, or a touch more reach with a faster aperture, or a bit higher macro magnification, but each of those lenses adds weight, and cost, to your camera bag. When versatility, flexibility, and even economy matter most, there’s a whole lot to like about a multi-zoom lens like the Sigma 18-250mm F3.5-6.3 DC OS HSM!
