Sigma 150 - 600 mm F5-6.3 DG OS HSM Contemporary Lens with TC-1401 Converter Kit for Nikon

By far the best superzoom lens I've ever used. I rented the Nikkor 150-600 last year, and was disappointed with the soft edges on tripod-stabilised shots. Well, with this Sigma 150-600, I'm able to shoot HANDHELD, with crisp sharp details (in daylight, anyway - wouldn't dream of shooting handheld in low-light conditions with any zoom lens) This lens (and the Sigma 105mm Macro I also purchased at the same time) have made me a full-on Sigma lens convert! Less pricey, and (so far) better image quality than the Nikkor equivalents. Do it! You'll be glad you did (even if a little worse-off in the pocket)

I'm not sure if my lens were checked before sending or it was a copy that someone didn't like it cos I found 2 fingerprints on the front glass along dust... anyway it's very good lens and I like it, quality of picture is great,I need to learn more about it but my first impressions was very positive, so yes I would recommend it,it won't be used all over the time but definitely I'll have it often for use.Im still learning this lens and can't wait to use them again.

I like this lens a lot although it is pretty heavy. The teleconverter is a big disappointment as it softens the image far too much. I can get better shots cropping the ones from the lens alone.

I've used this lens with a Nikon D750 over the past 5 months for bird photography, airshows and even moonshots and lunar eclipse. It works brilliantly with the Nikon, but what really surprised me about it is how good the image is when using the teleconveter; image degradation is minimal if at all present. One should note that the Nikon D750's AF system is only partly usable when the teleconverter is on (not all AF points can focus at F8). I got superb images of the moon and eclipse as well as perched birds with the TC on, but at airshows I found I preferred to use just the lens without the TC, as AF struggles with fast jets when restricted by the TC and Nikon's 3D tracking cannot be used at all with the teleconverter. Build quality is excellent, tripod collar is very useful and a padded carry case is provided for both the lens and the TC. The lens is tunable via the Sigma USB dock, and I was positively surprised that it's not just a gimmick.

I’m literally blown away by how good this lens is. I was after a super-tele for my D800. Initially I looked at (possibly like many Nikon owners first choice) the AF-S NIKKOR 200-500mm f/5.6E ED VR. However, after doing some research the Sigma seemed to stack up very favourably, and with some greater flexibility. I haven’t tried the Nikon lens, but given the price differential, I felt it was worth giving the Sigma a go. Despite the many glowing reviews, I wasn’t quite expecting the image quality & super-fast auto-focussing that the 150-600 provides. Images really are super sharp (certainly, it is worth experimenting with aperture settings) – but on a nice sunny spring day, subjectively I cannot perceive much difference in quality of the images produced, between this and my go-to ‘Nikon 24-70mm f/2.8 FX AF-S G ED’. The ability to attach to the Sigma USB dock (~£39) adds another dimension to the lens’ features. Assigning ‘Dynamic View Mode’ to one of the custom settings really makes auto-focus amazingly quick – even on full reach. Again, I really was not expecting this level of performance. This is an absolute steal and really should be considered before opting for the native equivalent.

This is my go to lens absolutely fantastic lens

Worth every penny, I have Nikon D3500 and this works perfectly including autofocus with and without teleconverter on my camera , great zoom lens, really big only wish is that I'd bought it sooner rather than some of the cheaper lenses I did buy.

Seems to be an excellent lens , using it on a D750 with a 1.4 converter. Easy to handhold and get sharp shots when using over 1/ 1.000 second. Not too heavy to carry around, quick auto focus and seems well built

+ Wonderful and superfast objective, Autofocus is excellent. Picture quality are extremely good. + This objective got extremely good quality on the photos. + Very good value for the lens. - Very heavy weight, it's very frontheavy and can be little difficult to use tripod. - Recommend monopod or tripod, since you will be tired to hold the lens really fast. The best tripod i found to this objective is K&F Concept 170cm Camera Tripod, TM2515T1 Tripod, so this can give this lens pretty good stability and balance.

Excelente teleobjetivo sigma para nikon, muy contento. Excesivo peso, será cuestión de acostumbrarse a el. El problema no es del objetivo, es del usuario.

Pour une lentille de se prix je trouve que la boîte était endommagé et sur la boîte il avait beaucoup de collants comme si c’était un retour j’espère que ma lentille elle était neuf

Ik vond ze beter dan verwacht, en met de 1.4 converter ideaal voor mij.

Super tel objectif bien conçu reçu rapidement et c'est une très bonne marque
