Sigma APO 50-500mm f/4.5-6.3 EX DG OS HSM Review
An impressive 10x zoom range for just over ￡1100, but has Sigma been a little over-ambitious with this superzoom optic?
Pros:
- A very versatile lens
Cons:
- Poor performance at 500mm

Sigma APO 50-500mm f/4.5-6.3 EX DG OS HSM Review
With a 10x focal-length range, Sigma's 50-500mm lens truly deserves to be called a ‘super-zoom'. It has a robust feel and offers excellent handling that is complemented by an efficient two-mode optical stabilisation system and Sigma's high-speed HSM AF mechanism.
Pros:
- A very versatile lens
Cons:
- Poor performance at 500mm

Value for money
I am an amateur photographer owning this lens for last 3 months, spending every weekend for bird and wild life photography. This is a very good,solid lens. It produces good image in f4.5, and step down to f5.6 very good, f.6 -f8 tack sharp image. I got some excellent shots.

Great Lens
I was torn being a Canon user for years and buying a non-Canon lens. The price was $1300.00 less than the Canon 500mm. Weight and size were an issue also, the lens head is smaller and fits better in traveling cases. Carrying this lens (6.9 lbs) on a monopod you will notice the difference.

Sigma 500mm f4.5 EX APO
I have used the Nikon 500mm f4 and the Sigma is just as sharp as the Nikon. The color is probably just a tiny bit more accurate with the Nikon, but without seeing the pictures side by side and of the same subject I don't think you would every notice anything.

Great Lens
The only one thing that does work dispite what Sigma says, the lens does auto focus on a Canon 1 series body with a teleconvertor, but with the 2x times it does hunt a bit, but with the 1.4x + tripod great combo.
Pros:
- Consistent Output
- Durable
- Easily Interchangeable
- Quick Focus
- Rugged
- Sharp Focus
- Strong Construction
Cons:
- Heavy
