Has anyone got any examples of image from this lens and their views on the lens itself.

Cheers

I had seen those ones but was wanting to find out some first hand info as well.

Many thanks.

Ok. I have a 50-500 and I know of one member that has the 17-500, but that's not a lot of help is it. I do like my Siggy mind. Given the right lighting it's pretty sharp all the way through.

Have you looked at the reviews on FredMiranda.com ?

Hi, I got one of these earlier in the year but I'm not going to be able to help much as I haven't used it in anger really. It's a big beast though with good build quality. The OS is quite noisey but that's not a biggy for me. I have some concerns over the sharpness of mine and it may be going back to sigma for calibration.

If you have any questions then let me know. If you haven't already then just search for sigma 150-500 in flickr and you'll get hundreds of pics back.
