Sigma 150-600 C is excellent on D500...

Post by Stany Buyle »

I did not have the time (yet) to publish a complete user review as I did with the Nikon 200-500, but, TMHO and with 400 gramms less, the sigma 150-600 C is optically about as good, with 150 mm more to use...

From this week, a bird in my garden, picture taken handheld with Nikon D500 and sigma 150-600 at 600mm.

The Original scene:

and a crop resized to 1000px longest side. Click on the image to open the 100% crop in full size. Feather detail is very OK to my opinion... :D

Die sigma docking station is een onontbeerlijke accessoire als je die lens gebruikt, en het is niet duur.
Hier een paar gerelateerde links: Vriendelijke groet,

Hey Stany bedankt voor de links, zeker die laatste.
Is een heel werk om een lens zo aan te passen aan je wensen, ik was toch echt van het gedacht dat Sigma een lens zou leveren die standaard perfect ingesteld is,

Ik zit idd met front en back focus problemen, zal eens een dock moeten aanschaffen en experimenteren ...
