Sigma 150-500mm f/5-6.3 DG OS HSM APO AF
Sigmaniacs and assorted bloggers have, over the years, dubbed Sigma's longer tele zooms with nicknames that seem to have stuck. The 50-500mm f/4-6.3, for example, is known as "the Bigma." The 300-800mm f/5.6 is the Sigmazilla.

Good range but slow low chromatic aberation excelent value for money
Pros:
- Heavy not as fast as the canon 100-400 F4L lens
- The material marks easily
Cons:
- Impresive up to 400mm gets a little weak after this OS works well
- If you stop down at 500mm just stop down one stop helps with the sharpness
- If thats a problem with a Digital SLR just increase the ISO used on 50D body

Overall a good lens for bringing in the
I take pictures for a baseball team. The lens takes good pictures and brings the subject close to you. Also with the 150mm you can still get close action shots without switching the lens.
Pros:
- Consistent Output
- Durable
- Easily Interchangeable
- Fast / accurate auto-focus
- Strong Construction
Cons:
- Heavy

Suveränt objektiv för pengarna
Jag rekommenderar objektivet till alla som är ute efter ett prisvärt långt objektiv. Det går att handhålla vid bra ljusförhållanden och det hänger med att fota flygande fåglar med. Objektivets svagheter kommer inte som någon överraskning och det dras inte med några onödiga designfel.
Pros:
- Sigma 150-500 mm ger en fantastisk räckvidd till den digitala systemkameran och fungerar bra att fotografera vilda djur och fåglar till en av marknadens lägsta kostnader
- Man ska komma ihåg att det här är ett stort objektiv som väger över 1,5 kg och det kräver lite annorlunda arbetssätt en kortare...
Cons:
- Det här ett av de billigaste långa objektiven på marknaden och naturligtvis har man kompromissat i konstruktionen
- Ytfinishen är mer rå en sofistikerad, bildstabiliseringen oväsnas överraskande mycket och drar en hel del ström och objektivet är ljussvagt och kantskärpan är inte den bästa vid full...

REVIEW: Sigma 150-500mm f/5.6-6.3 DG HSM OS
The Sigma 150-500mm f/5-6.3 DG OS HSM is the company's latest offering in the extreme telephoto zoom budget marketplace and it kicks in with a few eyebrow raising surprises! Replacing the 170-500mm model that is now quite long in the tooth the new lens has a good specification for its price.
Pros:
- Fast focusing
- Good stabilisation system
- Excellent value for money
- Relatively compact
Cons:
- OS system slightly noisy
- Tripod foot could be half inch longer to make more comfortable handle

Good Lens for the Price
This lens is pretty sharp out to about 400mm. At 500 its acceptable only. If you are trying to shoot wildlife and birds it works well but it certainly cannot compete with the better Nikon long lenses but then again it is only about $900.00 and the good Nikons can run 4 to 5 grand.
Pros:
- Consistent Output
- Easily Interchangeable
- Strong Construction
Cons:
- Heavy

this is an excellent lens you can leave your tripod at home the OS works very well. optics are also excellent focusing is very fast it seems to function similar to an f2.8 or f4.0 we were a little worried about buying a 3rd party lens but no more we have been using this lens for about 4 months now...

Covering 150-500mm is a great zoom range, especially when you factor in a digital crop like 1.6x found on our test camera, the Canon EOS 50D, as this takes the focal length range up to 240-800mm!

Sigma 150-500mm f/5-6.3 DG OS HSM Review
The Sigma 150-500mm f5-6.3 DG OS HSM superzoom has the most important aspect of any modern long-focus lens – an efficient AF drive system. This is very much the Sigma superzoom's forte.
Pros:
- Impressively quick and quiet automatic-focusing
Cons:
- Significant softness at wide aperture
