  • Fantastic value for the money!
Style: Canon EF Cameras
The lens covers a focal range from 150mm to 600mm, which is incredibly versatile. On my Canon 7D, the 1.6x crop factor effectively makes it 240mm to 960mm, giving exceptional reach. For example, at 600mm, you can clearly see details on faraway objects. Key features include a Zoom Lock, which locks the zoom at specific marked positions, and a Focus Range Limiter, allowing you to restrict the focus distance for faster performance. Autofocus is fast and reliable, and the Manual Override mode lets you fine-tune focus when needed. Image Stabilization (OS) offers two modes: Mode 1 for handheld shots and Mode 2 for panning or tracking fast-moving subjects. It’s lightweight for a lens in this range, thanks to its aluminum and composite build. The rotating tripod collar adds convenience for tripod use. The aperture ranges from f/5 at 150mm to f/6.3 at 600mm. While it’s not as bright as an f/2.8 lens, the tradeoff is the incredible focal range and excellent stabilization at a price that’s hard to beat. Conclusion: This lens delivers excellent image quality, versatility, and advanced features. While it’s not a bright f/2.8 or part of Canon’s L-series, it’s perfect for wildlife and sports photography at a fraction of the price. I’d rate it 5 out of 5 stars—a fantastic value for the money! ... show more

  • Great Value and Impressive Quality
Style: Canon EF Cameras
For a "cheap" telephoto lens, this Sigma really blew my expectations out of the water. It is relatively lightweight, maybe only weighing 7 lbs. when paired with my Canon Rebel T7 camera body, so it is great to carry, even on long hikes or birdwatching trips. The AF feature is fairly decent, getting a nice clear focus within the 100-400mm focal length, in my experience. Beyond 400mm, the focus is less accurate, but the option for manual override helps in those instances. The AF feature is also on the slow side, so getting yourself acquainted with the manual focus may be helpful for capturing flighty birds or other fast moving objects. The optical stabilization feature also works great, allowing for smooth viewing even in high movement shots. There are two options: full stabilization, or isolated horizontal/vertical stabilization for tripod viewing. Occasionally, there can be a slight jump or "jitteriness" in the stabilization, but this is typically minor and does not last long. Lastly, this lens seems to do well in a variety of lighting situations. Attached to this review are pictures taken by myself in everything from the beating summer sun to cloudy skies. The lens performed well in all situations! I find many of the limitations in picture quality may be stemming from me using an entry-level camera body, and aren't the lens itself. All-in-all, I strongly recommend this lens. It is well worth the money, and is probably one of the best values for a telephoto lens out there. ... show more

  • TOP NOTCH! I rarely Guve 5 Star Reviews
Style: Canon EF Cameras
I will start off by saying I only review items that I have gotten to use. I don't review anything right after I took it out of the Box to say oh well this is amazing.. With that being said after using this lens for a couple of weeks I can honestly say it's freaking incredible! With that being said this was my 1st serious lens purchase. Before this all I've been treating with have been kit lenses. I have this on a rebel T5I right now however I do plan to upgrade. The auto focus is sticky and tracks amazing.. Image civilization is Phenomenal. One problem I did have with it is it is when I had this attached to a shoulder sling when I walked the camera got switched and it's auto focus length from 10 Meters to infinity down to 2 m to 10 m. For 2 days I could not get any sports photos that we're coming out clear and was thinking I would have to send this back to Sigma. However the one day it just dawned on me to check that setting and I found that it had gotten switched perand switched. After doing something about it that's what I had realized what it that while I was walking with the camera at my side it probably just got bumped. After switching it back to The infinity setting the the lens works perfectly. Images are extremely sharp and crisp. The background Boca is amazing even at F 6.3. This lens is a terrific investment. I really wanted to get the sport model however the extra $500 was kind of hard to justify especially on my budget however the contemporary lens truly is an incredible lens. If you're looking for or a good sportsman or a lens to take photos of the moon or anything like that I would not not hesitate to get this once again ... show more

  • This lens is for the birds.....and any other critters that like to socially distance.
Style: Canon EF Cameras
I had my eyes on this lens for quite sometime, and am so glad that I made the purchase. I mainly use this lens for wildlife photography, and at my kids baseball games (easy shooting from the stands or down the foul lines). The build quality is great by my standard, the durable heavy duty plastic used in the Contemporary version is certainly tough. While it is not as fast or as sharp as some of the top of the line prime or other mega zooms (i.e., Canon EF 600mm, 500mm or 400mm USM lenses, or the EF 100-400mm F4.5-5.6L IS II USM, etc.), it is significantly cheaper, so for me the way lower price point more than makes up for the slight drop in speed/sharpness. I can't comment on how it compares optically to the Tamron G2 150-600, but the Sigma it is cheaper by at least a few hundred so to me it was an easy choice. Pros: - IMO the best price point available; - Great image quality once you figure out how it jives with your camera (re: ISO, shutter speed [min 2x focal length]); - Durable and tough, the composite plastic is great. Cons: - It is "heavy" at 4.25 lbs, but what can be expected for a well built zoom lens. I haven't tried a monopod or tripod with it, that would undoubtedly help, but I am mobile when I shoot wildlife so for me I prefer to shoot from the hip; - Sometimes focus hunts, especially with flying birds at full zoom (> 500mm); - Not great in low light, but at 600mm and F 6.3 what do you expect? If your camera can tolerate higher ISO then it shouldn't really be a problem (re: owl shot). I mean how many of us are shooting for Nat Geo? - The lens focal lengths switch (full, 10-infinity, 2.8m - 10m) on the lens body is lose and I tend to bump it when I'm walking around with it, so that can be annoying. Overall, the lens is great optically (not perfect, but damn good) and I'd recommend it to anyone looking for a mega zoom that doesn't want to break the bank. All of the accompanying photos were taken by me, shooting handheld, on a Canon 80D (APS-C). ... show more

  • This lens can't be beat for the price!
Style: Canon EF Cameras
First off, I'll say I'm an advanced enthusiast not into pixel peeping. But this lens is great! I got it primarily for some random nature walks and the 2 airshows I attend each year. Optically, it's very sharp in the middle all focal lengths but definitely visibly falls off in the corners as I'm using it on a full-frame Canon 6D. Not deal breaking but the outer edges are noticeably less sharp without pixel peeping. Color rendition is very good, similar to my Canon L lenses, but probably just a bit less saturated/dull. Focus speed is very good, I haven't missed any shots because of it yet. If you use the focus distance limiting switches, it's even faster because it limits the focus hunting. I haven't done any high speed tracking/panning with it yet, but that's not a super strength of the Canon 6D to begin with. Build quality is excellent for the price. Zoom and focus rings have good tension, no rough spots throughout the range. All the parts fit together nicely, no play or wiggle while zooming. The first part of the body (last 2" near the mount) is metal, the rest is thermally stable plastic as is pretty much the norm these days for non-professional grade lenses. The tripod foot is also removeable and the lens includes a nice silicone ring to protect the foot mounts when removed. It's also worth noting the lens comes with a nice padded, Sigma labeled bag with a strap to store/transport the lens. This is a nice touch and saved me a few bucks since any third party lens case big enough to hold this size lens is at least $40. Weight could definitely be an issue for some. At 4.25lbs its my heaviest lens by far. I use a Black Rapid RS-5 sling strap and it makes it relatively easy to carry, but a standard neck strap wouldn't work for anything more than a short stint. For days at the airshow, I plan on using my monopod. As a matter of habit and good practice I always put a B+W UV MRC filter on all my lenses. So just a warning that at 95mm, that size filter cost more than 10% of the lens' cost! I waffled between this lens and the twice as expensive Sport model. From the few online reviews available, the only real "cons" to this lens verses the sport is slightly lower optical clarity (but I'm not a pixel peeper as previously noted), slightly slower focus (could be an issue, but I'm no pro to begin with), and lack of the tank-like build quality and weather sealing. So given these 3 cons, the only one that would really affect my personal use is build quality and I couldn't justify another thousand dollars for that. The other obvious comparison for this lens is the similarly priced Tamron 150-600. So the following is what swayed me to the Sigma: I'll say that I generally prefer Sigma to Tamron for third party lenses (though I do own Tamron's excellent new SP 15-30mm F2.8), I really like the look of Sigma's new Global Vision lens line (personal preference), the Sigma included a nice padded case, and the final one up over the Tamron is Sigma's USB dock. And lastly, to cover the USB dock. This lens has two "Custom" mode positions, and I made C1 a setting to prioritize speed in it's focus and OS and C2 a setting to prioritize accuracy in its focus and OS. Update 11-16-2015: I still stand by this lens, it really is great. Added some pics from the Great New England Airshow. It was a cloudy, hazy, summer day and the lens still captured some pretty good color saturation. Pics taken with my Canon 6D, all handheld, really shows off the len's OS. Most pics were keepers (or at least good enough) given the fairly high-speed tracking. ... show more

  • So far a great lens. Will update.
Style: Canon EF Cameras
Just got this lens today, will provide updates. So far, it is an awesome lens. Great build quality. I took it outside and got some nice bird pictures with it. I previously had a Sigma 400mm f5.6 lens but I upgraded to an M6 II which didn't support that old lens so I had to switch lenses. I decided on this rather than the Canon 400mm f5.6l because from what I have seen online it is roughly the same IQ but with more reach and image stabilization. I can add a 1.4x teleconverter to the lens and not notice any degradation in autofocus on my M6 II. On my T3i adding a teleconverter made the autofocus almost unusable. So I have a 1250'ish mm lens for only $833. My sigma was used on my old T3i, if I crop 640mm to 1250mm I get a roughly 4.7 megapixel image but this lens on an M6 II with a teleconverter I get a 32.3 megapixel image at 1250mm. That is roughly 7 times more resolution. I haven't done a side by side comparison yet, but it should be a notable difference. This lens is definitely heavier than the Sigma 400mm (which is about the same weight as the Canon 400mm f5.6l), so a monopod would make things easier. I might get that but it is not essential. The autofocus at 600mm with a teleconverter is definitely not as fast as the Sigma 400mm without one. I don't have the dock yet so I'll do more experimenting and update this sometime in the future. I don't need to calibrate my lens to my camera cause I have a mirrorless camera, which is awesome. More to come. ... show more

  • Incredible.
Style: Canon EF Cameras
I'm loving this lens, I'm getting some shots I never thought I'd be able to get. Sigma's products are the real deal and worth the price they charge for them. If you're thinking of making an upgrade to a nice long focal length, you can't go wrong with this one. Pretty light for it's size too. I'm able to get super clear pictures from a long ways away, and although I'd love a wider aperture so i dont have to rely on ISO as much, I know that'd be impossible without shelling out a ton more money. I highly recommend this for people who are looking to get into some real deal wildlife photography but aren't willing to make the jump to a lens that costs as much as a car. Excellent for starting a career or really drilling into a hobby. ... show more

  • Better than the Tamron 150-600
Style: Canon EF Cameras
I purchased and returned two copies of the Tamron 150-600 because I was unable to obtain sharp handheld images on any consistent level, particularly above 500mm. I'm honestly not sure what the issue/s were, maybe the Vibration Compensation, maybe the AF, maybe the glass, maybe a combination of issues...but, all I know is that this Sigma 150-600 C was consistently tack sharp as a handheld right out of the box! The Optical Stabilization is fast, solid and dependable, and when coupled with the compact size and relative light weight, it becomes an exceptional handheld super telephoto lens...the best I have ever used. At f/8, this lens truly competes with the image quality of much more expensive lenses. Sigma has found a way to offer nature photographers excellence in form, function and price! Here's a completely unedited crop of one of the first images I took from my back porch while testing the lens. Here's some photos I've taken so far with this lens. It's coupled with a Canon 70D and all shots are handheld except for the moon. ... show more
