Sigma 150-600mm f/5-6.3 Sports OS (Canon mount)

Remember when you first got into photography? If you're like a lot of us, there was something magical about the "long" lenses. Don't you love the idea of zooming in really tight from far away? But then you see the price for those big lenses and have to sit down to catch your breath. Anything over 300mm is out of budget for most of us, and anything over 500mm is simply out of the question unless you are a paid professional or your last name is Kardashian. That becomes especially true if you want decent image quality along with the long focal length.

Even renting (ahem) that focal length is cost prohibitive for a lot of people. We get it. The 100-400 does a pretty decent job and is by far our most popular wildlife / safari lens, but our clients consistently ask for more reach. Until recently, there weren't a whole lot of options. Then Sigma drops this amazing 150-600mm lens on us. Wow. 600mm is a huge amount of reach-out-and-grab-something. You can do a lot with that.

Sporting events and wildlife photography is made so much more accessible now. You can't get close to those nesting birds without scaring them off? No worries with this lens. Need to get a shot of your kid catching a fly ball all the way in the outfield? This has you covered. Prefer to stay a little further from that lion sleeping under the tree? This lens will help prevent you from becoming a kitty toy.

No, it's not a super-fast prime. But, it doesn't have that super-fast prime cost, size, or weight either. Seems like a fair trade to us. Rent the Sigma 150-600mm Sport lens and rediscover the joy of long-distance photography. Or just use it to feel like a super spy. We won't judge.
