Dariusz Breś tested the new Sigma 200mm f/2 DG OS Sports lens (price: $3,299 | more info) on Nikon cameras with the latest Megadap Pro+ adapter (price: $249 | more info).

Today, it is becoming a viable option for a much wider range of users. Honestly, I appreciate Sigma’s bold and unconventional approach to building its product range . The brand not only produces high-quality standard lenses but also isn’t afraid to introduce extraordinary designs to the market – often unique or even unavailable from other manufacturers. It is enough to mention models such as: Art Fisheye 15 1.4, Art 14 1.4, Art 40 1.4, Sports 300–600 4, or the described Sports 200 2. These are lenses that go beyond the typical framework of system solutions and really expand the creative possibilities of photographers. It may...
