The Tamron 150-500 is only 1725g + 95g lens hood + 155g tripod collar, the Sony 200-600 is 2115g (without lens hood or tripod foot), the Tamron 150-600 is 1784g + 108g lens hood + 200g tripod collar.

tripod collar) plus 150g for the lens hood the new Sigma is much, much lighter than its predecessor: the Sigma 150-600 HSM Sports was 2860g (without lens hood). All lenses except for the Sony 200-600 extend when zoomed to their longest focal length: The Sigma 150-600 DN extends 100mm to a total length of 431mm (incl.
The Tamron 150-500 is 93 x 209mm + 55mm lens hood, the Sony 200-600 is 112 x 318mm and the Sigma 150-600 HSM Sports is 121 x 290mm (both without lens hood), the Tamron 150-600 is 108 x 260mm + 97mm lens hood. Size (diameter x length): 109 x 265mm (4.3 x 10.4in.) plus 66mm for the lens hood (120mm diameter). As usual I’ve rated the features with a (or ), when it’s better than average or even state of the art, a if it’s standard or just average, and if there’s a disadvantage. Although both lenses are older DSLR designs they were popular lenses then and still can be used via Sigma’s MC-11 Canon EF to Sony E mount converter – which adds 26mm in length, approx. For good measure I’ve also added the Sigma 150-600mm f5-6.3 DG OS HSM Sports (Sigma 150-600 HSM Sports”) and Tamron SP AF 150-600mm f5-6.3 Di VC USD G2 (“Tamron 150-600”) to the mix. But I’m pretty sure Sigma is working on Z- and RF-mount versions of their lenses too. The lens is priced at 1399 EUR / 1499 USD / 1199 GBP and so far only available for Sony E-mount and Leica L-mount. And for those who like to shoot small objects the 150-600mm f5-6.3 DG DN OS allows for a maximum magnification of 1:2.5 at the short end. This comes in handy when you prefer to push/pull the zoom instead of turning the zoom ring. Sigma has equipped the lens with a switch to either lock the zoom (at the short end) or provide more or less friction when zooming.
lens hood) it is still pretty big and heavy – extending another 10cm when zoomed in. The lens is much lighter and shorter than its DSLR predecessor but at 2.2kg and 33cm length (incl.
It also is fully weather-sealed and comes with an Arca-Swiss style tripod interface. Like its shorter sibling, Sigma’s new 150-600mm zoom lens features optical image stabilization (OS) – an essential feature for long telephoto lenses. Announced in July 2021, it complements Sigma’s 100-400mm f5-6.3 DG DN OS Contemporary for those who need more reach. The Sigma 150-600mm f5-6.3 DG DN OS Sports is a long telephoto zoom designed for full-frame mirrorless cameras with Sony E and Leica L-mounts. Alternatively get yourself a copy of my In Camera book or treat me to a coffee! Thanks! But other than that Sigma has designed a very compelling super-telephoto zoom which clearly earns a Highly Recommended - with the caveat that you need to find a good copy! Buy it now! Check prices on the Sigma 150-600mm f5-6.3 DG DN OS at B&H, Adorama, WEX UK or. A serious fault that Sigma hopefully can remedy. But 3 out of 3 copies I tested could only reach these results when used in landscape orientation: As soon as I turned to portrait orientation, corner sharpness deteriorated significantly. Summary Sigma has finally come up with a modern mirrorless design for a super-telephoto lens with a 4x / 150-600mm zoom range: They managed to make it much lighter, optically better, and also cheaper than its predecessor - not a small feat! Optical performance is the best I've seen so far on a zoom lens reaching beyond 400mm focal length.
