OS equals doubling the price? Sigma 70-300 anti-shake version sample

IT168 sample 70-300mm F4-5.6 DG Macro has always been one of Sigma’s most well-known cameras. In September last year, this lens ushered in its OS anti-shake version, the 70-300mm F4 -5.6 DG OS. The new lens is equipped with an Optical Stabilizer system that claims to be able to lower the safety shutter by 4 stops, but its price in the domestic market has reached about 3,000 yuan, which is almost twice as expensive as the non-anti-shake version. So, is it worth the price?

Today, we specially found a number of sample photos taken with the EOS 7D as the platform and using the 70-300mm F4-5.6 DG OS from dc.watch. You can judge for yourself the 70-300mm F4-5.6 DG Is the OS worth 3,000 yuan?
