Focus Distance???

[leeharrison2]

just wondering if anyone could help me, I am considering buying a Sigma 150-500mm for a my Nikon D40, but I can't find the minimum forcus at 500mm, if there anyone out there that knows this????

on the spec if said 220cm but I presume this is as 150mm???

Thank you
Lee

I think it's less than 2.2 @ 500. 2.2m is the last figure on the dof scale but the ring turns a little way past that.

I'll check & let you know exactly.

Quick check tells me 1.6m @ 500mm

No problem, Lee.

I should say that the measurement is from the front element.
