I purchased this telephoto lens, and tried it out ! it definitely handle the job for shooting wildlife and racing cars on the track ! If you don't concern about its weight, you should rock this lens ! Why strongely recommend this lens come on !

After reading and watching reviews, I decided to buy to replace an aging 70-300mm nikon lens as wanted the extra reach. There's a good array of feature considering it's in the entry category of lenses. 3 focus settings plus 3 Optical stabilising settings and the option for programming user settings.

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.

For the price, this lens is an absolute star. Light enough for hand-held use throughout the day (though it will build your muscles!) it focuses quickly and produces wonderful shots. Mine is used mainly for airshow photography, including magazine work, and the results have been wonderful.

This lens has an excellent range for birds and wildlife, it appears well-built, and it focuses quickly on still subjects. It could be a real bargain for someone who doesn't use it on a tripod. The tripod collar's foot is very short, apparently not very strong, and there is only one point of support.

On opening the item i was suprised to find it comes with it's very own well padded carry case, Barrel lens hood and rubber cover to replace the tripod mount when removed, The lens is quite heavy so a tripod is a must for prolonged use.

THIS IS BRILLIANT, I'M A SPORTS PHOTOGRAPHER OF 27 YEARS AND THIS LENS ON MY 5D MKIII IS AS GOOD AS MY COLLEAGUES 100-400 MK II AND 400MM,500MM AND 600MM I'M NOT KIDDING, IT'S REALLY QUICK,FOLLOW FOCUSES WITHOUT LOSING THE SUBJECT IT'S SO CLEAR AND CRISP,IT'S QUITE HEAVY, BUT I LIKE THAT EVEN ON ISO...

I bought it for my Nikon d7100 but when I use it, one minutes it was good but next minutes it suddenly tells me the lens connection is failed. It's really panic, I have to return it.

When paired, the teleconverter and lens offer 210-840mm F6.3-9 zoom lens reach, with full autofocus functionality with most recent DSLR cameras.

Build quality is superb, and image quality is excellent. It is much sharper than the Tamron 150-600mm which I have subsequently sold, as the Sigma is clearly a better lens than the Tamron in every way, most importantly in outright image quality.
