Has anybody got any tips on Gopro's? We are going to Lapland in December and have husky rides and snowmobile rides and was thinking of using a gopro to capture it all on either a chest harness or a head strap. I don't want to spend loads as will probably be only time using it so an older one...

Help please I’m looking at this piece of glass Sigma DG 150-500mm F/4.5-6.3 APO DG OS Lens For Canon Will this be ok with the 7dii? What does the DG stand for?

I’m aware of that. Thanks for pointing it again though.

Is the sigma 150-600 a good lens for taking pictures of the moon?

Do you wanna sell it?

I I like it Eloise lol. Right decision is made and I’m gonna get a sigma 150-600mm I think. But then I worry about the weight and think would the canon 100-400 be better due to weight...... oh my god never thought this long and hard about buying my house lol.

There is some more great advice thank you. I am leaning towards the sigma 150-600 because I’ve then got the full length. (Plus being black the Mrs won’t know its new so won’t have to explain like I would if I got the canon 100-400.) But because I’m looking at getting the canon 24-105 l lens am...

Canon 100-400 L F4 lens is similar price to the sigma 150-500mm f5.6 on the 2nd hand market. There are none of these near by to go and try so it’s going to have to be a leap of faith I feel.

Sorry if you don’t like that, but for me to get out there sometimes and take pictures is hard, and to have the massive white lens on front of my camera which draws attention to myself is something I struggle with.

Only thing that puts me off from the canon 100-400mm is the colour of grey/white. As much as I would like L glass for this range that is what’s putting me off it. Now looking at the sigma 150-500mm.

This is great advice everybody. Thank you.

Is this posted in the right section?

Hello everybody. I’m looking at getting a new long lens to go with my new to me 7dii Looking at the canon 100-400 Or the sigma 150-600. Are there any other lenses I need to be looking at that are good quality and good price? Probably going to buy 2nd hand due to cost of these lenses new...

Thanks for all your help. Luckily today I was sorting out some stuff and I come across my canon ixus 970is. I actually thought I had got rid of this. Charged the battery up and away it went. It will do for my holiday snaps and that means saving from that I can put some more money into my dslr...

Yeah I know what your saying, I’ve not looked at cameras for a while so I will go to a shop and have a hunt. Sadly not many proper camera shops around anymore.
