Pros: Fast AF, Excellent focal length, Very low CA, Excellent sharpness from 150 to 400mm ( Very good sharpness from 400 to 600mm), Close minimum focus
Cons: Strong vignette, Heavy weight
Opinion: A very good lens for wildlife photographers with an excellent focal length range.Although the aperture is 6.3 at 600mm, so it is not a negative point for this price range.The lens has vignetting problem at all focal lengths, but it can be fixed in editing. The heavy weight of the lens is painful.
Also, the lens body is very good and can be easily used on mirrorless cameras with a firmware update
Pros: focal length, the cheapest way to achieve 600mm. sharpness, stop down to f7.1 or f8 for best results. AF. comparative size/weight. price.
Cons: not as sharp as the primes. focus ring turns opposite way to canon and ergonomics not as good as canon tele zooms. Size weight, heavy lens.
Opinion: I really like using this lens, not perfect but very very good. Best IQ on full frame or 1.3 crop. APSC still good. I think I may have got a good copy as I understand some others have focus sharpness problems. Not as good as my canon 100-400 ll lens but very hard to tell the difference. Build quality very good. heavy lens but manageable with a strap to take the weight. arch swiss tripod foot as standard. I previously owned the sigma contemporary which I sold as had issues with sharpness and focusing. The lens is relatively heavy but still able to carry around for hours easier than a prime, therefore the better option as will use more often. Ability to blur the backgrounds at F8 given the right circumstances, very pleasing results. No hesitation in using this lens instead of my 100-400. I recommend this lens.

Opinion:Preferring landscape photography - lunar alignments - timelapse I find it an excellent solution without having to break the bank. The lens is solid, the anchoring arm to the ring is just as "massive". Anchoring takes place directly on ARCA Swiss or alternatively with a plate on Manfrotto or other systems. The "plasticky" lens hood. The lens is sold with a bag that I promptly replaced with a JJC padded case that cost just over 20 euros. In my opinion, a protective shell with padding should be included with the lens from the moment of purchase, as for Sigma lenses. I don't understand certain choices - 1200 euros of lens and a bag for transport? On the qualitative side: I don't practice birdlife or sports photography, I abstain on evaluations related to autofocus, moreover I have not used it with camera bodies known for this aspect, so if I spoke well or badly of it it would not be true. Stabilization: I must say that it looks great, also adjustable depending on the movement to be made (generic / panning v/o) Color rendering: excellent for the photos I take Sharpness: I don't like it at f/5 and f/6.3; minimum is f/8. Among other things, by focusing the flag or antenna 5-6-7km away to align the moon, it is evident that the diaphragm must be closed. there is a loss of sharpness even at maximum extension, I think from 580 to 600, at least on my sample paired with Canon bodies. Lens promoted for the type of photo I'm interested in. Probably photographers interested in birds of prey and rallies should opt for something else and go up in price
Pros:Very handy. Definitely the price. Well stabilized and robust.
Cons:A bit dark and sometimes the autofocus leaves you.
Opinion:I consider it an excellent lens especially from the point of view of price / quality ratio. If you know it well, despite being a bit dark ( f / 5-6.3 ), you can get excellent shots even in less than ideal conditions. With moving subjects, unfortunately, sometimes it loses autofocus, but with the right compromises you can get, even in this case, good shots. It is an excellent adventure companion, robust, very manageable and well stabilized. The weight is well distributed so that you can use it freehand without any problem.
Cons:It loses some sharpness at longer lengths (550-600mm); cost (but worth every penny)
Opinion:What can I say, I'm having a lot of fun with this lens, comfortable to use once you get used to it. Practically no flares, excellent color rendering, exceptional stabilization, excellent minimum distance (2.2m). Unfortunately it loses a bit of sharpness at higher focal lengths but it is an excellent compromise between quality and price. I use it a lot for landscape and I don't regret it
