Key Specs
- Lens Mount Compatibility: Canon EF
- Lens Type: Telephoto Zoom
- Minimum Focal Length: 150 millimeters (The minimum distance between the lens and the image sensor that allows the subject to be in focus. The shorter the focal length, the greater the area of scene captured.)
- Maximum Focal Length: 600 millimeters (The maximum distance between the lens and the image sensor that allows the subject to be in focus. The greater the focal length, the smaller the area of scene captured.)
- Maximum Aperture: f/5 (The limit to how wide a lens can be open, typically expressed in f-numbers. The smaller the number, the larger the aperture and the more light that can enter the lens. A larger aperture creates a shallower depth of field, helpful for keeping subjects in focus and blurring background details.)

Owner's manual

Q: Will this lens work with a Pentax ZX-60 AF?

A: No. It's a Canon EF lens.

Q: s this lens compatible with the canon 90D?

A: I am certain it is. I am using it on a Canon 80D and the lens mounts are the same. Be mindful that the 90D has an APS/C sensor - as does the 80D, so the effective focal length of this lens with those cameras becomes something like 225 to 900mm. That having been said, the IS works very well and I have found this lens, while somewhat heavy, to be very sharp. Auto focus seems to be spot-on right out of the box. I am very happy with the way it works on my 80D should not be a problem with a 90D.

Q: Is this lens compatible with a cannon T6s?

A: undefined

Q: Would this work with a Canon EOS M50?

A: undefined

Great Alternative to a Canon L Series
I love this lens, I've had it for nearly a month and to date have taken over 1500 pictures with it. Yes it's heavy, but so is a Canon L series lens, 200-400mm with the 1.4x extender weighs more at nearly 8lbs, this Sigma weights 6.6lbs. This lens is also a fifth the price! If you cannot deal with the weight, get the Contemporary (which my partner has and loves). I love the reach this lens gives me, I primarily shoot wildlife, this lens has put so much into my reach. If you buy this lens, do yourself two favors, buy a good monopod/tripod, and get the Sigma TS-81 grip, which improves the balance of the lens a thousand-fold, it also makes carrying the lens easier.

Super fast focus speed!
I purchased this lens to replace my Tamron 150-600 (1st Gen). The Tamron lens cost me quite a few wildlife shots because of it's abhorrent focusing speed on moving objects, so I steeped up to the Sigma 150-600mm Sport. First off, this is a large, metal lens, so yes, it's heavy, but if you've ever used a super telephoto or large prime lens, the weight won't be too much of a shock. This lens is as solid as it gets. It's extremely solid and well made. For some reason, though, this lens doesn't come with a lens cap. It comes with a large, cloth cover that goes around the top third of the lens. While it offers adequate protection, it is cumbersome when changing lenses out in the field, because that ginormous lens cover ain't gonna easily fit into your pocket. The lens hood is metal and extremely easy to apply. You simply place it over the lens and secure it with a thumb screw (knob), no more twisting the hood, trying to line up the grooves on the lens. The focus speed on this lens is incredible! The lens has several focusing modes, that are customizable with the proprietary Sigma USB dock (sold separately). The dock allows you to adjust several settings, as well as update the firmware on the lens. No more sending it away to have it recalibrated. Do it yourself. This a great lens for shooting birds, wildlife or sporting events. It's pricey compared to the Tamron G2 150-600, but the Sigma is a solid lens, and does what I need it to do. Pros: - Super fast focusing speed - Solid metal construction - Customizable features (with USB dock) - Metal lens hood (won't break like plastic versions) Cons: - Heavy - No lens cap - More expensive than it's contemporaries.

Great lens but slow
I purchased this lens for my 7D Mark II in the summer of 2015 to photograph birds. The lens really brings the birds close, and there is no distortion at the corners even when shooting at 600 mm. My only gripe is that at f-5, it is awfully slow. While the advertisement claims that it shoots well in shade, that is not quite true. Unless you are shooting a still object at a slow speed, your picture will be slightly blurry. Unfortunately, birds do not tend to be still. I try to fix some of the blur on the computer, but I have limited success. Overall, I do like the lens, however, and, since I cannot afford the $11,000 lens my friend bought, this $1,650 one will have to do--for now.
