JustinHoffman Posted May 30, 2012 Report Share Posted May 30, 2012 Hello All, Decided to treat myself to a new camera lens this past week, a Sigma 150-500mm F5-6.3 APO DG with Optical Stabilizer. This thing is BIG, but, is equally at home being hand-held or used with a monopod or tripod. With a trip next week to Northern Quebec to shoot moose and bear, as well as a three week excursion to the East Coast this fall, a lens with more power and better quality was on the "to buy" list. To say I am extremely pleased with this purchase is an understatement! Here are some shots from the past few days. Decided to turn my attention to our feathered friends: Ruby-throated Hummingbird Hairy Woodpecker Osprey Caught this guy in a private moment, haha!! And of course, a shot of "Buckwheat".... Enjoy the Outdoors, Justin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillM Posted May 30, 2012 Report Share Posted May 30, 2012 Great pics Justin! I borrowed a Cannon 100-400mm off a buddy a few weeks ago, that thing fully extended is a monster! LOL! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishnsled Posted May 30, 2012 Report Share Posted May 30, 2012 Great shots! That osprey looks like it wants to shove that new lens where you do your private business from in the first pic. LOL!! Can even pick up a bit of the detail on the band on it's leg. Nice lens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
