Douglas,
Is this the lens you’ve been waiting for in native FE Mount? I recall you’ve wanted something in this range to pair with a class leading APS-C camera from Sony.
Hi Mitesh, yes this is the lens I have been waiting for. I rented a Sigma 60-600 from Roger and liked it enough that I bought my own one two week ago, now this!. I am quite happy with the sharpness of the Sigma but haven't had much chance to try the AF for BIF. I took some pictures of a family of wood ducks with the Sigma on the A6400 yesterday, it looked like sh*t at ISO 6400, maybe good enough to look at it on iPad.
Affordability aside, I use these type of lenses for airshows more than for birds, so the flexibility of a zoom is more important to me.
