great macro, ? long range

"Love the long zoom, but all my long range (100+ yards)photos require sharpening regardless of tripod use. OS works great again handheld vs tripod doesn't matter with long range. Focus is as fast as my Canon lenses. The photos I've included have been cropped and sharpened...." Read Full Review »

I returned this lens (not real sharp)

"I shoot primarily wildlife out in the wild, and I've always used nothing but Canon "L" glass - but when Sigma came out with this they had me hooked. Who wouldn't want a lightweight 500mm with OS that they could handhold? And for under $1000 ! It seemed too good to be true. Well, it WAS too good to be true. As soon as I got it I took it to Yellowstone. I shot a few thousand images in the first week and a hal..." Read Full Review »

"Bought this lens to replace the slow focusing Sigma 80-400. The toss up was between the Sigma 120-400 or the Sigma 150-500.

I decided to go for more reach enough it was a 1/3 stop slower.

It's worth the money. Focus is much quicker then the 80-400. IS seems to be even better than the 80-400 whic …" Read Full Review »

"With the conversion factor this lens has some serious " reach " very " up close and personal " with anything from a Blue Bird at 15 feet to a Hawk on a limb at 50 + feet.

"Mechanically, the lens appears and feels quite solid. The HSM motor is fast and quiet. Where the focusing speed lags behind is a lack of a focal length limiter switch. This is regularly evident when shooting wildlife, which is rarely stationary, and forces me to wait that extra second or two when I …" Read Full Review »
