The Sigma Sport is a beautiful, well-built lens. If you purchase it I'm sure you will have many years of enjoyment from it.I had the chance to use the Tamron for a few hours couple of months ago, shooting baldies, on a very cloudy and overcast day. I shot with my Nikon D610. The response of the Tamron was great, the weight was not noticeable, the images between 500-600mm @ F6.3 were soft - due in part to lighting of that day. same evening , I went to my local store to see if they had the Sigma 150-600mm in stock, they did so they reserved it for me, they could not give an ETA on arrival, so I went ahead and processed the reservation. To my surprise three weeks later my Sigma 150-600mm Sports arrived. The weight is quite noticeable, adjusting your posture with the lens, will be helpful as well. I will also mention that using a Black Rapid or Carry Speed Strap attached to the tripod foot on the lens will come in handy or you can mount a gimbal head to a monopod, if you are out shooting for several hours. Images from this lens are sharp from 150mm to 600mm, I have shot in decent light to overcast all day light and images are sharper than that of the Tamron. The AF response is very fast much faster than the Tamron. The build and weather seal is a very big plus....Show more →
This is exactly what I wanted to read! Now do I give up the 80-400G and replace it with the siggy sport
