thanks for the link
but im looking for people on the Forum who have the lens
so i get a personal point of the lens rather than blurb from a journalist

sorry to bring up an old thread, but anyone the forums got one yet and any opinions?

 

[holty]

don't think anyone has one !!!!
gets a good write up but i would rather get opinion from real world photographers on the forum

I agree with you when it comes to reviews and I never knew that lens existed until this thread.

 

[rackhs]

yeah, that's the thing. see lots of good reviews (not really seen a bad one yet!) but very few 'user' reviews...

Another link worth a look.

thanks, again a good review overall!

Also been looking at things like Flickr for shots taken with it and seem to be some good ones out there!

I've got the lens and have used it pretty much exclusively this year.
I posted a couple threads about it here:
https://www.talkphotography.co.uk/threads/pretty-impressed-with-the-new-sigma-60-600.689207/
https://www.talkphotography.co.uk/t...h-the-60-600-vs-120-300-2-8-and-300-4.689276/

And you can see some examples on my flickr feed (they look better on flickr).
