Daniel Meier Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 Hey Guys!I'm looking for a good telephoto lens with a zoom range of about 100 - 600mm (more or less). EF Mount.I want to use the lens on a Sony E-Mount and Bmpcc Camera via Speedbooster.The following lenses have caught my eye, since they seem to have a good zoom range and optical stabilization, plus they are not too pricy:- Sigma 50-500mm (http://www.lenstip.com/244.1-Lens_re...DG_OS_HSM.html)- Sigma 150-600mm Contemporary Version (http://www.lenstip.com/434.1-Lens_re...roduction.html)- Sigma 150-600mm Sports Version (http://www.lenstip.com/417.1-Lens_re...roduction.html)- Tamron 150-600mm (http://www.lenstip.com/403.1-Lens_re...Di_VC_USD.html)- Tamron 150-600mm G2 (https://www.amazon.com/Tamron-150-60...amron+g2+canon)My favourite one seems to be the Sigma 150-600mm Contemporary. But I heard that the focus ring is a bit tiny and akward to use. So I'd rather go for the Sports version.But since I haven't found that many videos on the web about it's cinematography capabilities, I wanted to get some information first hand.Do you guys have experience with any of the listed lenses? Any recommendations or advice?(Considering image stabilization, f-drop during zooms, focus behaviour...)Thanks,Daniel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Field Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 All of the links are 404'd so I'll just give an alternative recommendation: If you're looking for intense lens flare coloration effect, consider some of those older FD telephoto zooms. http://www.ebay.com/itm/CANON-FD-100-300mm-f-5-6-Zoom-Macro-Manual-Focus-Lens-for-FD-6909-/222539028052?hash=item33d05c1654:g:hocAAOSww9xZNT2P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
