I purchased this lens after using a Canon 100-400mm for years, and I was blown away at the results in post! It’s so much fun to use, yes it’s heavier, but I’m getting use to it. I paired it on a Canon 7d2, with battery grip….so I’m sporting about 6 pounds, but I’ve decided the results outweigh the weight! Pun intended!

Nice review ! I myself just got the Sony A7R III and the Sigma 100-400(I kept my G9 as a back up for now). It's a really nice lens but I still have to get used to it since it's my first real telephoto lens. I'm hoping I'll be able to get some nice wildlife shots in the near future but for now I'm stuck at home... I didn't realize how hard wildlife photo was until I got this lens ! So much harder to get a sharp image(I think I still struggle mentally to crank up my ISO that much, coming from a G9 haha). I'm also probably pixel peeping too much 😅

Thanks for the review, as prime lenses are awfully expensive these days :). I've been using this lens for wildlife for about 18 months; like you, I've been happy with the results. I use a mix of auto-focus and manual focus, with manual necessary in low light. But on a sunny day, the auto-focus works well. I shoot on a crop sensor body (M6 II). With a 32 megapixel sensor and an effective reach of 960 mm, there's room to crop, and I've felt no need for a teleconverter. I've had no problems with edge effects, perhaps because only the centre of the lenses is seen by the crop sensor? Although I bought the M6 II mostly for video work, it's turned out to be surprisingly useful for birds, and I think I can comfortably recommend it. For larger birds or hand-held applications, I also use a 100-400 mm zoom (Tamron 4.5-6.3 VC). Thanks again.

Thanks Kelly! Personally, if the price were the same, I would choose the Sigma 150-600 still unless amazing AF is super important to you, then I would maybe purchase the Canon RF 100-500 instead. However, since the prices are drastically different, I think it's a pretty big no brainer to get the Sigma but that's my personal opinion! Canon overprices everything (especially their lenses), and consumers often pay double the actual value. Choosing a third-party brand like Sigma which has a proven track record of great quality will be much more worth the money! Personally, Sigma is my favorite lens brand and I own 3 of their lenses, 2 Canon lenses, and 5 Lumix lenses.

Hey Ivan! I have and my Panasonic S1R with the Sigma 150-600mm is actually my main wildlife photography setup now. In all honesty, with the adaptation that I use between the two with the MC-21, the autofocus is still slow. However, if you are already used to manual focusing, I would say just put in the little bit extra work to learn it in wildlife photography as well and you should be golden. I only shoot manual focus with my Sigma 150-600mm, and because of that, I think undeniably this lens is the best bang for you buck, but the AF is the only part that doesn't hold up to the standard. I think if you got the Sigma 150-600mm and went out in the field practicing MF you'd probably get it down pretty quick if you are already used to it. If you decide to go for it let me know!

Interesting that you are fine with the focus ring, i think its much too stiff and too small. I am used to the RF 800 F11 and EF 100-400 II focus rings, these are GREAT and big with nice grip, the Sigma is horrendous to manual focus, also much too sensible to nail focus good enough. I am also wondering how you can see this wobbly clip as "good stabilized", coming from RF 800 F11 i was used to very good stabilizer already with IBIS, even the adapted EF 100-400 glass is MUCH BETTER STABILIZED than the adapted sigma. At least on the R7 the stabilizer is bad and i really have to rely on a tripod with this lens (but the optical stabilizer compensate the rest of the wobble and movement very good on a lightweight/crappy tripod at least, but unusable for video handheld in my opinion, probably 120fps+ slow mo is usable but thats it)

@harrison00xXx

Жыл бұрын

but despite the heavy downsides for handheld video and the "bad" focus ring, its also my favorite widllife lens, too versatile on APS-C with its 240-960mm at Canon bodies. The 100-400 II 5.6 is often too short, even on APS-C, but a lot better for macro (0,9m MFD vs 2,5m), lighter, very nice stabilized (nearly or at panasonic level) and the 100mm on the short end are especially a charme on full frame. But the 150-600mm are a pretty much unbeatable focal lenght range, only the 60-600 is better but lets be honest, that is again about 2x the weight of the 150-600, just NO (beside the high price) Funny thing is... basically ONLY Sigma lenses were the best value for its money in my collection, the 150-600 is absolutely no exception, probably even the best value sigma lens beside some smaller macro primes.

No problem! Personally, I would go with the A7RIV almost always. Really the only perks in my opinion to the A9 is the rare occasion where I would need incredibly fast burst rates (but I’ve gotten along with lower for a long time now) or if I really needed just a little better low light performance. Otherwise in my mind, the A7RIV wins in pretty much every other way and is cheaper by a decent amount too.

Great Video! Quick question Jeromy, would you recommend this lens, with a Canon R6, to shoot people as well? (P.I Jobs) thanks!

@JeremyNeipp

3 жыл бұрын

I would most definitely recommend it! If you’re a MF shooter than hands down I think it’s the best option, however, if you’re reliant on AF I would say it’s a 50/50 cause the AF is slightly slow. So depending on your needs I would recommend it, but you won’t find better bang for buck in my opinion.

@@andreaspahan9578 I have owned this lens for a while, and just over a week ago bought the Canon R6. My experience has mainly been with bird photography and have found the combination generally very good. I have found that with both the R6 and my 80D I can get 2 pics taken on burst mode where one is pin sharp, then the next is slightly out of focus (and I have yet to work out if that is down to the lens, or more likely user error). I have not taken any people specific shot yet, however did go to a bird of prey centre, where they were doing some flying displays, and I found that the eye focus was very quick on human faces compared to birds. I have not used the RF 100-500mm lens, but have read on forums that the focus on the Canon lens is slightly quicker, however here in the UK the cost is almost 4 times the price of the Sigma, so I'd be disappointed if it wasn't better.

Hey João! The one I reviewed was the contemporary lens, you can see the link to the product in the bio to see more specs on it. In terms of the Tamron or Sigma, the Sigma 150-600 beats out the Tamron 150-600 anyday in my opinion! The IQ is distinctly sharper on the Sigma and in my opinion, the color accuracy is better too. Hope that helps!

@@JeremyNeipp I found your G9 Sigma 150 600 video, thanks. I understand the benefit of the almost 2 stops with the speed booster, but I have that covered with my Lumix 100 400. I am after a longer focal length. I was wondering how it would fair with the Metabones Smart T adapter. No gain in f stop but you keep the full 600 mm. With the 1.4x converter, would this be practical? 600 X 1.4 = 840 mm (1680mm equiv) lens at f. 9. . Would this be practical?

@JeremyNeipp

3 жыл бұрын

So the Sigma 150-600 with the speed booster adapted goes down to a 4.0 f-stop, so it gets lower light then your Leica 100-400mm which I why I recommended it that way... however, doing the smart adapter wouldn’t be a bad option at all either! Personally, since MFT struggles a little more with low light I like the idea of getting two extra stops of light but that’s my opinion. I would say however, that if you keep the full 600mm focal distance, I wouldn’t get the teleconverter cause you are losing just too much light at that point. For the MFT line, you start to really limit your low light capabilities once you’re over that f/8 line in my opinion.

Hey Martin! No worries! Yes any micro-four thirds lens will fit and work... however depending on the brand and comparability autofocus and image stabilization may or may not be compatible.
