Customer Reviews

Great lens, and very affordable.

I use this lens constantly for bird photography, and it gives consistent clear results from 150-500mm. Auto-focus is quick, and VR works a charm.

Sigma 150-to-500 Lens

The lens provides good quality photos -- better than the photographer, as a matter of fact. It does what I wanted. My minor complaint is the weight, but I still lug the lens for long shots.

Good lens but not what I needed

I had this lens for about a week but sadly I am returning it. I was too sure what to expect when I ordered it but was hoping for something a little sharper.

My biggest complaints are that:
1. If shooting something over 50ft away it always seemed to be soft or at least not as sharp as I wanted.
2. In order to get the speed I wanted I had to turn ISO up to 1600 or more and on my D80 this just doesn't perform the way I would like on a D3 or D700 I'm sure I would have been happier.
3. While the auto focus was very quiet it was also very slow, shooting hummingbirds and dragonflies had to be done manually

the good:
1. In bright daylight I was able to get some great shots of dragonflies (handheld) and Polar Bears (on tripod) at the local zoo, even at 500mm.
2. The 150-500mm is a very useful range for zoom

Sigma 150-500

I love it so far. Haven't had the time to take as many photos as I'd like but the tests I've done I'm happy with it. It is a bit heavy but shooting hand held is pretty doable considering the OS (anti vibration system).

Great for the price

I purchased this lens primarily for sports photography and I have taken several hundred pictures at speed boat races and summer football. I find the os to be a little slow for fast focus so I turned it off for the boat races and the photos were very nice. I was able to use the os for football and this also resulted in good quality prints. I am pleased with this lens, particularily as its cost is about one sixth the cost of the comparible Nikon lens.
