Nice video! Really appreciate you showing handheld video shots. There are so many reviews that only focus on photography and completely skip the video aspects a lens can be used for. Seeing the stabilization of a lens is huge for people that film. Great review, thanks for the video.

Very much like your reviews because you move quickly through the important subjects and provide your personal opinion often in comparison to other products, specifications or brands. It's very fluent and one never thinks: "OK, now, move on, I've got it". Well done, thank you!

Thanks for that - very pragmatic review. This may be my next lens for my S5, but only after I have recovered from my planned acquisition of MFT's anamorphic Sirui 50mm L mount conversion 😋

Great review and video pav. The video was surprisingly impressive

This was the 2nd lens I purchased after buying the ubiquitous Sigma 16mm f/1.4 while converting from Canon to Sony Cams including the new a7 IV and two ZV-E10's. It is an Awesome lens and the tripod mount fits Arca-Swiss heads. It IS heavy but doesn't feel a whole lot different from my previous use of the Canon 100-400 L on my former 1DX. Everything about this lens is solid, smooth, and feature-rich. I seriously like it a lot better than my old Canon lens. 95mm K&F UV filter is fine on the lens and a lot less expensive than others and has equivalent quality in my opinion. Perfect for my use in Aviation and catching wildlife and birds. The price of this new Sports lens is an extremely great value for the performance and features you get! 👍 The lens handles stabilization extremely well, even when shooting at full 10 burst mode on the a7 IV. One note about the firmware mentioned in Pav's review. There is no USB Dock from Sigma for any Sony E Mount lens. Firmware, when released, is updated via the camera, not with a dock, like Canon's and others require for Sigma Lenses. (One more reason I went with Sony, and most of my new lenses are Sigmas with a couple of Tamrons and Sony's kicked in!). Can't say enough good things about this lens, and I have also come to rely on Pav for honest and highly informative reviews! Kudos to both Sigma and Pav....Excellent! ✅😜

Nice overview of the lens. I like your photography style - fun and moody, not at all boring. Good job! The heat problem is an earth problem. Not a lens problem. Damn this bloody planet of ours! :(

Again. Another great content. Your shots are cool.

How would you compare it against the sigma 100-400? In sigma 100-400 video you mentioned you like to take portraits with longer focal lengths. These lenses obviously aren't typical portrait lenses though ☺️ but I'd like to know what is your opinion on that. I also consider the tamron 70 180 f2.8. 😅 I also love the longer focal lengths for portraits 🙂 Szczęśliwego nowego roku!

Great review Pav, I have the Sigma 150-500 (Canon Mount) but have been considering something a little more up to date. This could be the one :)

Wow! Early unit :-)

I’m getting chromatic aberration 😭 is this normal with this lens. Blue edges

Nice video Pav! This lens is certainly a workout 💪

Hello would you recommend this over Tamron 150-500 the Sigma is cheaper by 150$ where I live buy some reviewers tell that af is better on Tamron

Not having little window for polarizer of VND is kind of dumb. Most hoods do not have it though.... Squeezy sound is interesting, "that you expect" - nope... I have some zooms and do not have that yeee-yeee

For Lumix S1 : must have

“Best for events, social distance events” hahahahaa, nice one!

Is the lens suitable for shooting in the gym? Sports like judo, swimming, boxing

This lense or the tamron 150-500? Idk which one I want

It is a beast

Did you use it with Sony or L mount? Thanks for the early review!

Too bad it doesn't zoom internally, I would have preferred that like the Sony 200-600. All in all seems like a good modern super telephoto. I am more excited to see sigma's 70-200 f2.8 (I hope they made it as compact as possible)

Hey pretty cool 😎

Best lens for my compact 6400

Anybody know work does it work with sony 2x teleconverter

Would be nice to see with 2x tele

5:40 Are these shots with Lumix or Sony?

I guess this would be overkill for photo and just streaming huh?

This lens should be called creepy lens lol🤣 it’s cool tho

Marzę o takich pro recenzjach po polsku😍

I think the 60-600 will be worth the wait...

Gutted that I bought the 100-400 now

How sharp is it?

"zoom compression" haha. Also I would disagree with "build like a tank" have you ever used proper telephoto lenses? like the 600mm f/4 ? this sigma is made mostly out of cheap feeling creaking plastic. I own it and the nikon 600mm f4 and it feel like an AliExpress special compared to Nikon

its comfortable for indoor shoot like function not sports

You can save on gym membership though....

Well, Stopped watching after you mention how big the lens is

a product review needs to let viewers see the product ... in your hand the product is out of focus all the time ... ???
