Sigma 150-600mm f/5-6.3 HSM DG OS Contemporary - Review / Test
A little while ago, we reviewed the mighty Sigma 150-600mm f/5-6.3 DG OS HSM | Sports - quite an impressive lens in terms of size and weight and despite its long zoom range, it's also pretty good.

Not sure yet
I haven't fully used it, yet. I did try to capture an eagle and got nothing but blur. Perhaps operator error. Still working out the kinks.

Love...Love...Love this lens!
I can't begin to brag about enough about this lens. I bought the Canon EF version and use it with the Sigma MC-11 Adapter on my Sony A6300. Great AF and Stability Control performance.

Sigma 150-600mm f/5-6.3 DG OS HSM Contemporary Review
Although Tamron pioneered the release of the first 150-600mm lens, Sigma followed suit by releasing two versions of lenses with exactly the same focal length and aperture ranges.

Sigma 150-600mm f/5-6.3 DG OS HSM Contemporary
Rented for 4 days from Lensrental.com, $67.91, shot lots of hiking/wildlife/nature/zoo pix, almost all hand-held (on Canon 70D). I'm no bodybuilder but had no problem with weight - when walking the support came from my Kinesis (kgear.com) chest-worn holster, ideal for support and quick-draw action...
Pros:
- Quick focus
- portability
- sharpness
- colors
- stabilizer
Cons:
- Manual focus ring too stiff
- stabilizer drifts off focus point

Sigma 150-600mm f/5-6.3 DG OS HSM Contemporary
The Sigma 150-600mm f/5-6.3 DG OS HSM Contemporary lens offers very similar image quality to the Sports version at a cheaper price, whilst being much lighter and therefore more suitable for hand-holding, although it doens't feature the same level of weather-proofing.
