The details
At a glance: Sigma 70-300mm tele-zoom for Nikon FX - screw-drive AF, no VR, macro mode at 300mm.
About this lens
The Sigma 70-300mm f/4-5.6 is a long-running consumer tele-zoom for Nikon F DSLRs. A simple, affordable long-reach option covering 70-300mm with screw-drive AF (requires a Nikon body with built-in autofocus motor). Older Sigma generations of this lens predate the DG (full-frame optimised) and integrated motor updates.
Build & handling
| Autofocus | Screw-drive AF (uses body motor) |
|---|---|
| Image stabilisation | No |
| Minimum focus distance | 1.5m (0.95m in macro mode at 300mm) |
| Filter thread | 58mm |
| Weight | 545g |
| Construction | Plastic mount, macro focus mode at 300mm |
Works with
- Nikon F-mount full-frame DSLRs with built-in AF motor (D750, D780, D810, D850, D6 and older pro bodies)
- Nikon F-mount APS-C DSLRs with AF motor (D500, D7x00 series)
- Nikon Z mirrorless via FTZ/FTZ II adapter - manual focus only
- Not autofocusing on entry-level Nikons (D3xxx / D5xxx) - no in-body AF motor
Best for
A simple consumer telephoto zoom for occasional long-reach use - wildlife, sports, distant events. Macro mode at the long end gives useful close-focus capability. Uses screw-drive AF, so won't autofocus on entry-level Nikon DSLRs without a built-in AF motor.
Frequently asked questions
Will it autofocus on entry-level Nikon DSLRs (D3xxx / D5xxx)?
No. This is a screw-drive AF lens and entry-level Nikon DSLRs don't have a built-in autofocus motor, so you'd be stuck with manual focus.
Does this lens have image stabilisation?
No — this lens does not have image stabilisation.
Why buy from Bass & Bligh
Bought from a real shop, not a warehouse.
Dispatched on the Monday… great service
Ordered a Panasonic four thirds lens dispatched on the Monday after purchase and delivered on the following Tuesday great service. Tried on the camera and initial thoughts are wow pin sharp and clear photos. Thank you
George P.Ordered a lens onlineA proper little treasure trove
3rd time I've been to this shop to treat myself to some new kit. Always very friendly and knowledgeable. Fairly priced too. I would highly recommend a visit if your nearby and looking for camera gear. I'd say if they don't have what your looking for, it's probably not possible to find anywhere. It's a proper little treasure trove.
Philip B.Third visit to the shopBrilliant advice with awesome customer service
Sure you can buy online and possibly save a few pounds.. but if you require and appreciate knowledge and brilliant advice with awesome customer service then it's a no brainer...This is a real camera shop like it used to be back int day..
