It offers good image quality and build quality, although the corners can be a bit soft at wide-angle and telephoto ends. The lens is enjoyable to use and is a good option for a full-frame image stabilized standard zoom lens.

The Sigma 24-70mm f/2.8 DG OS HSM is a solid lens, with a nice zoom range and relatively bright aperture. The lens offers good image quality, with sharpness in the middle and soft corners at wide-angle and telephoto ends. The build quality is excellent, with a sturdy feel and well-made construction. The lens does exhibit some breathing when zooming in closely, and the autofocus motor operates with a huge turn of speed. However, the lens is not without its issues, particularly with softer image corners at wide-angle and telephoto ends, as well as some distortion and vignetting. Overall, it's a good option for those in need of a full-frame image stabilized standard zoom lens, although it may not compete with the very best in its category.
