The following opinions have been automatically translated with Microsoft Translator. | UniqBall UBH 45 Pros: Compact, lightweight, precise Cons: It is not as fast and "smooth" as a high-end gimball, not recommended if you are photographing flying or fast subjects. Opinion: I've been using it for 2 years, for my use I would never go back to the classic, bulky and heavy classic gimballs. It allows you to go out with a tripod and a single head on which to effectively mount both a 500mm and a 16-35. In any case, it does not have the fluidity or speed of high-level gimballs, if you take a lot of photos in flight or very fast subjects those are still to be preferred. sent on November 09, 2023 |
 | Canon EF 600mm f/4 L IS USM Pros: Blurred, sharpened, AF precision, cost (always important, but nothing compared to IS II or IS III) Cons: Size, weight (compared to the last is III), original front lens cap, suitcase Opinion: Before I took it, I was worried about size and weight. After using it for 2 months I can only talk about it well. The only thing that still keeps unsettling me are the size, the weight (for me) is quietly manageable and it is also possible to use freehand. I almost always use it that way and I'm using very little both tripod and monopod. Lenscoat accessories such as folding lampshades and neoprene caps are almost obligatory to replace the originals and save weight and a lot of space in the backpack. Practically useless the suitcase with which it is sold. The slightest focus distance makes it unhelpful on small birds, in that case better use it with 1.4x sent on December 18, 2019 |
 | Sigma 150-600mm f/5-6.3 DG OS HSM S Pros: construction, feeling, focal range, sharpness (after microregulation) on subjects not too distant, stabilization, customization, size (if compared to the maximum focal length), purchase price (especially on used), speed af (to be a zoom) Cons: keys and levers too small and difficult to use with gloves, tripod bracket too close to the lens that limits the use for transport only when you have bare hands (and small): impossible with winter gloves, tripod bracket too short (to balance it to 600mm on the gimball it takes an ark swiss plate that protrudes from the original bracket), speed af (especially if used without limiter) Opinion: I'm definitely happy with the purchase, I went from the Canon 400 5.6 to this because I wanted a stabilized and tropicalized lens. The bigger size (and weight) do not weigh me, in fact: the Canon is too small to carry it on the shoulder, with a ridiculous tripod bracket to take it from there and still too heavy to carry it for hours around the neck. The Sigma I tie it to the shoulder straps of the backpack and I take it (almost) safely in the high mountains.rnUsed for hours under a blizzard at -10 ° did not show the slightest sign of slowdown af or other problems.rnAfter microregulation made by Sigma is excellent on subjects close or not far away. The loss of detail on distant subjects is quite evident.rnSome defects to be corrected (see keys and various small levers too small and tripod bracket too close to the body of the lens) but all in all is a great goal.rnrnSurely not at the level of the Canon L, but it costs much less and has much greater ranges of use. 600mm on APSC are really many.rnrnIl all used on Canon 7d Mark iirn sent on December 18, 2017 |
