Cons:Absence of tripod mount and cost of the latter
Opinion:Sharpness equal to the Sony 100-400 at f8 only that costs less than half. Tripod mount essential for landscape photography that I had to buy separately and at a decidedly excessive cost (150 euros). The only sore point: it suffers from the wind and even on a tripod it is not very stable. I find too high the attack that in most cases fails to cushion the micro vibrations.
Pros:Excellent sharpness, easy to handle, top quality / price ratio
Cons:The only flaw is that there is no multiplier on the market.
Opinion:Many complain about the lack of the tripod ring, but given the cost and knowing it from the beginning you can not judge it as a lack, with less than € 50 I took it through the internet and end. What matters is the quality of the glass and here we are, center in full. Even at full aperture it goes great at all focal lengths and a slight drop to 400 mm. you can see it only by going to magnify in an exaggerated way and all at just over a third of the cost of the Sony. For those who make occasional use, but not only, it is definitely convenient, If used on APS-C it becomes an excellent 150 / 600. For me who have a Sony kit both FF and aps-c I find two lenses to use, to choose, depending on the need. As mentioned, a good 1.4x multiplier would be useful. We remain hopefully waiting.
Pros:Lightweight, Crisp, Carefully Built, Great Q/P Ratio
Cons:Lack of tripod ring, Zoom lock only at rest (at 100mm)
Opinion:I have had this lens for a few months and I have to say that I am very satisfied. I found myself buying an alternative ML system to the 7Dii + sigma 150-600S choosing lightness without giving up quality. This lens combined with the Sony a6400 is for me an ideal solution for those who find themselves hiking in the mountains but do not want to carry useless weights. It is sharp at every focal length (perhaps it loses a little at 400mm when compared to the Canon 400L f.5.6 that I own), has a fast and good AF that I personally use only for the central points, has a valid quality of construction for a lens that Sigma has cataloged as a "C" series and an unsurpassed Q /P ratio. Compared to the same GM model as Sony, it holds up the comparison in every field leaving forum discussions to the fanboys. I found it in bad taste not to use the typical case of Sigma lenses which for this lens is absent. The lack of a tripod ring is also noticeable, but I personally use it exclusively by freehand.
Pros:Light, very sharp, good MAF, good construction
Cons:The trepidal ring is missing, but I use it freehand so it doesn't cause me any problems
Opinion:I have just taken it and use it on the A7 III and I am very pleased with it. Excellent sharpness even at full opening and very responsive the MAF, I use it for naturalistic photos and these parameters are fundamental. The tests I have done have yielded excellent results, regarding stabilization in symbiosis with the Sony sensor so often criticized, I can say that I took 400 focal shots with 1/40 without micro moves and I consider it a very good result. It is not tropicalized, but the construction is very good and from a sense of solidity. Finally I want to highlight the really remarkable value for money, certainly the 100-400 Sony will have something more, but it costs more than double , so good Sigma another great lens.
Pros:weight,crisp,costs almost a third of the respective Sony,built well,autofocus
Cons:tripod ring
Opinion:I replaced it at the 100-400 Canon that I used with Sigma adapter, it's fabulous, paid around 900 (if we think about how much the Sony costs) already for this reason I consider it a best buy, it is light for the type of lens compared to the Canon was a boulder compared, very sharp and stabilized, I also really appreciate the zoom lock button very useful if you hold on your shoulder or shoulder ,I have to try it a little more to give further opinions but so far it seems great! One thing I really don't understand is why they didn't include the tripod bracket ,this is something that made me turn quite a bit!
