Thank you for really pushing this lens to it's limits! Other reviews showed this lens in ideal conditions and those are few and far between in the world of wildlife photography!
Happy New Year... Thanks for the video, I must say "very well done" I too have this Lens. And I must say it is very nice. It is a Beast! Thinking about a monopod for a little help, when the tripod and other gear is getting a bit much. So again... thanks for being the other Two-Legs to my monopod.
Last 4 years I've shot with the tamron 150-600 g2...for what I needed to learn, it was a very good lens... recently I purchased the Canon 400mm f2.8 iii...WOOOOOOW... that's all I have to say about the 400mm...🤤🤤
Hi Nicole, Great video with mega impressions of your wild animals and landscapes because it makes watching even in Corna times Really fun Greetings from Rheine from the Münsterland, Germany, Markus
Beautiful photos! My Fujifilm has a built in zoom lens, so I have never gotten a lens like this. Videos like this help for the day when I get a new camera/lens.
Great video! I have recently started looking into this lens as a replacement for my Canon 70-300MM. It's been a good lens and takes great pictures, but I find I'm still longing for more reach. I mainly use for my son's lacrosse and baseball games, plus I captured some great shots at a Buffalo Bills game in 2019! I think your example photos really helped make my decision. I was going to spend money on the Canon 100-400 L lens, but it's not that much longer than my current lens and the price tag is really hard to justify. The Sigma looks like a winner! Thanks!!
Finally a new video, thought a bear might have got you. Well, my popcorn is ready, but not sure my bank account is, but I know I am going to want this.
As a Nikon 200-500 user, I really like this new Sigma. The wide angle (if you can call it that) 60mm side is very appealing. Thanks so much for introducing us to it. As usual, great video Nicole!
@@saabvanderlinden9214 Absolutely love it. Been a reliable performer and gotten countless pro-level photos on my pair of D7200s. It has my recommendation.
that lens looks really good! love my canon 100/400 and i have a camera body dedicated to that lens only but that means i am carrying two cameras most of the time. i was getting dust on the sensor from changing lenses too much.
My husband bought me the 150-600 for Christmas. I haven’t tested it out much yet but am anxious to try it. He also got me a Pistol grip tripod. Helped out so much with stabilizing the weight of the lens. You should check them out.

For ultimate reach and IQ I use my 500 with 1.4 or 2x TCs. If I need light weight and versatility I use my 100-400 II, with or without the 1.4. I used to have the 60-600 but I got screwed by eBay and had to sell it to make up for lost money. I just rented it again, and I think I'll stick with my current setup. The 100-400 (with TC) isn't quite as wide or long, but it's a heck of a lot lighter and more compact, and it's a bit more macro friendly (although the 60-600 has a pseudo-macro mode at 200mm).
Good to see you after a gap. I have the Sigma 150-600 and D500. Both are going to be converted into cash. I am finding the weight pretty difficult and think I may go mirrorless. I have a Nikon p950 and a Sony RX10iv. They will cover my telephoto requirements. I would like a full frame for landscapes and I am thinking of the Sony A7 although I do not know which version yet. As I get older the issue of weight gets more significant especially as I usually like to spend at least half a day to a full day in the field. After a day carrying my big lens in my hand or on my arm bits of me start to seriously ache. I suffer from osteoarthritis which may be partly responsible. Great pictures, really high quality, Nicole, the lens, sadly, is not an option for me.
I always totally forget to keep up with Sigma lenses as a Canon RF shooter… This definitely caught my eye thanks to you! Thanks for the video and look forward to the comparison to the 150-600! I love my RF 70-200 2.8, so it's definitely a comparison to see if I truly would need that widened range…
It's fun to see you in my part of the country. Glad you enjoyed it. If you're in this area again I'd be happy to point you towards some other fun places. Check out Gooseberry mesa for one. Happy New Year. :)
I've been planning to get either Sigma C 150-600 or this 60-600. Can hardly wait for your comparison video. Though I guess I prefer Contemporary due to it's lightness and price, but if picture quality and especially OS are better in 60-600 then decision making becomes a nightmare. For me the extra range between 60-150 is not so important, the picture quality and OS operation means more.
PLEASE READ- SAVE SOME BUCKS!!!: Several commenters have stated the price of 105mm filters being prohibitive. Simple solution is buy (or may already own) a 95mm CPL, ND...whichever! Then purchase an inexpensive 105mm-95mm step-down ring, screw your 95mm filter onto it and screw that combo onto the front of your 60-600 OR 150-600mm Sport and there you have it! No vignetting whatsoever at any focal length/aperture setting. I even have the Sigma 105mm Protector filter on the front of this lens, then the 95mm combo and still NO VIGNETTING! I have the Canon EF mount version of this adapted to my GH6. Great lens...mostly used for video of wildlife, landscape and the moon.
I own this lens and a Sigma 100-400mm for wildlife shooting (Canon 6D Mark II). However, I haven’t got any satisfactory crispy sharp images, probably I haven’t known these lenses well. Now I practice daily in my backyard on bird photography with the hand-held and tripod.
thanks for the review on this, working towards saving up for one, as a newbie, in Central Utah Mts. need some more reach out to touch the subjects, and I was thinking this could do it. someday....
I watched this video last night and it made me laugh. I went through the exact same process as you: I was going to buy a 2x teleconverter, then realized it was already half the cost of the lens, so I bought the lens! :)
Nice review, thank you for share it,, I am on the road to buy this lens and the Canon R6, also I was been considered the CANON 100-500 RF, but believe me more money for almost nothing..
Just bought a Canon 400 f5.6 with 1.4 extender for my 5dm3 body. Just couldn't buy a Sigma after looking at sharpness reviews, etc. Working great so far.
Ive had one of these lenses but opted to sell it in favour of the 150-600. This lense starts at 60mm i dont know any wildlife lenses that starts at 60mm.. The one thing i found with this lense is the range is to long. when your at 600mm the photos will become less quality because of the longer range. The more you zoom the less quality The 60-600 is a massive range and the glass is coming to far away from the sensor leaving less quality. stick with the 150-600. i woudnt consider any wildlife lense what dosnt start at or around 150mm.. 60mm is not a wildlife distance unless you are shooting when the actual subject is right next to you so which will prob be in a zoo or enclosure (Not really wildlife then)
@@NicoleGlass Just so you know, it's a bad idea to feed the animals. Once they get used to people feeding them they can get aggressive and demanding. People have been bitten. Those chipmunks are cute but they also pack a powerful bite. They can also chew through Styrofoam coolers etc. to get at your food. And people food is bad for their health.
@@zenphotojourney Yeah I saw the signs. I didn't feed them, but they were searching my bags and pockets for food when I wasn't paying attention. They are clearly not afraid of humans.
Thank you for your review. The lens sounds and your photos look amazing at long telephoto. Did you find your photos at a wider angle as sharp at the one's zoomed out? How did you find the quality of the lens, as far as it's construction and durability? How fast did it focus on the wildlife for you? Did you shoot any video clips? I sincerely appreciate your review and all the effort you put in to produce and post it. Bravo! 👏 😃 📷
Hello! Long time no see! I just wanna say have a great year 2021! I loved your photos. Do you still load photos in Shutterstock? Greetings from México 👍😃
Great explanational video! The drops of moisture on the lense was a nice detailed touch! I am curious as to the camera that you are using to video yourself? Thank you!
Thanks! I am using the Canon 5D Mark IV both to take the pictures and to film myself:) Which means sometimes I’ll put the lens on a different body just to film some broll.
Hi Nicole this might be my next lens if I had the money. I’m just getting used to the sigma 150-600 with m arthritic wrists. I love your videos your very thorough keep up the good work. Do you prefer using manual, aperture or shutter priority with the 150-600? Do you have any recommendations for a lightweight backpack for just the lens and cam?
You took some beautiful shots! I can’t wait for your in depth comparison video on the two lenses. I’m really torn between the two. I’m a full-time college student so obviously the 150 - 600mm is more appealing price wise but I also would prefer to save up if the 60 - 600mm is better than the 150 - 600mm. I almost exclusively photograph wildlife and I know both are good for it! I’ve see complaints of fringing on the 60 - 600mm when photographing at 60mm, have you experienced this?
Yes I saw the video where another photographer mentioned the fringing. It wasn’t an issue I noticed. The only time I saw a little bit of fringing was when I photographed a dead tree in front of a white sky, and the branches of the tree had a small amount of it. If I wasn’t intentionally looking for it, I wouldn’t have noticed it. Both lenses are great but I am keeping the 150-600. You’ll see in my video soon:)
@@NicoleGlass Thank you for sharing your experience! It’s interesting that the fringing issue seems to involve tree branches, but that’s great to know that it wasn’t anything too noticeable. I have notifications on for your channel so I will definitely keep an eye out for that video. Thanks again!
A very nice and convincing video. I'm still shooting with my Tamron 200-600mm G1 with a Canon APS-C camera. I was planning on getting the new Canon RF APS-C when it comes out in Q2 2021 (based on rumor) rather than getting a new lens.
Santa brought me the new Canon EOS R5 !! I brought it down to the duck pond to shoot some ducks. The eye detect focusing is a game changer. All of my Canon lenses appear to work fine with the Canon control ring mount. I have the older 150-600 Sigma lens but I have not tried that on the new camera yet.
April 26 2024 Hi Nicole: Annotation says 60-60MM instead of 60-600MM. I would like to know if you get noticable ghosting when pointing it at the Sun. Thank you.
At 4:50...How in the world did you hand hold that smoothly? I just got the 150-600 C version and can confirm your thoughts. Amazing lenses. This will round out my lens selection as I use a Nikon 18-200mmm 3.5-5.6 VR which I also use as a pseudo-macro.
I filmed at 60fps, slowed it down to 40% and used warp stabilizer on top of it. I think the focal length was between 300 and 400mm too. So that combination of factors allowed me to get a smooth clip. The 150-600 is great! Hope you enjoy it:)
Great video...I have the 150-600 C... on a 70D canon..I am going to try it on a monopod...just unwieldy for me...The shots I get are really great but the weight is against me ! Might sell it...

Yeah I saw that too. The only time I saw a small amount of fringing was when I photographed a tree in front of a white background. It was quite minor though.
Question from a newbie: I would like to take videos of birds in my backyard similar to this example on RUclips: ( ruclips.net/video/xbs7FT7dXYc/видео.html ) where the camera is stationary on a tripod and pointed at one spot while recording birds landing and eating food ( not flying in the air ). I have am considering buying a Sony A7Siii and a Sony FE 200-600mm F5.6-6.3 G OSS Super Telephoto Zoom Lens but don't know if that is the best option. I am concerned the SonyA7Siii does not have enough pixels and I am concerned the Sony FE 200-600mm will not work well at dawn or dusk which I read is a problem with that lens. Do you have any advice on which camera and lens to buy to take bird the type of bird videos I want to capture ? Thank you.
Yaaa zzzz little gurlymon lens..Are you sure it's not to heavy for you? You don't understand lens F-stops or speed do you? I use a lowepro supertrekker to haul around my 300 F2.8 Nikon. Oh and it's pronounced H'a va' li'na
That's a gross over exaggeration of 60mm to 600mm at 3.36 minutes. Know way a 60mm to 600mm lens would magnify the animal that much. You must of cropped the picture. If my 600mm lens could magnify an animal that much I would be so happy.
Picture is not cropped. Perhaps it looks more exaggerated because the first photo was taken vertically, making the sheep look even smaller on your screen.
@@NicoleGlass With all due respect, a 60 to 600mm is a 10 times magnification not 100 times. I just have to measure the animal, then times it by 10, to get the size it would be at 600mm. That how it works with most lenses. Unless this lens is really special. Also the sun is to the left on the 60mm picture, then to the right and behind you on the 600mm picture. You may not of cropped, but moved and got closer. At 60mm picture you are looking down on subject, then at 600mm, level with the animal. All the best.
Hope you enjoyed the video and had a Happy New Year!! And yes, I know I mispronounced javelinas... 📷 🐷

Thank you for really pushing this lens to it's limits! Other reviews showed this lens in ideal conditions and those are few and far between in the world of wildlife photography!
I love my contemporary lense. I sold my first stock photo too recently 👍😊
Where and how?
@@tobiaszc12 Shutterstock. I only made 10 cents but it’s a start.
Thanks for this, I have the sigma C lens 150-600 and it’s my go to lens for wildlife. I was so impressed with the quality of photos I was able to get.
Happy New Year... Thanks for the video, I must say "very well done" I too have this Lens. And I must say it is very nice. It is a Beast! Thinking about a monopod for a little help, when the tripod and other gear is getting a bit much. So again... thanks for being the other Two-Legs to my monopod.

I have the Canon 80D with the Sigma 60-600 lens and love going out for wildlife shots with this set up, what an amazing lens. Worth the money
Beautiful photos! My Fujifilm has a built in zoom lens, so I have never gotten a lens like this. Videos like this help for the day when I get a new camera/lens.
Thank you! The eye of the photographer is always more important than the gear :)
This video was put together so well! Great editing. The zoom photos on those sheep came out so nice too!! 😍
Thanks so much Anna! 😊
You got rid of a big headache that I had with its heaviness. Now all clear. Thank you very much. subscribed..!
Sure thing! Best to always rent/try it out beforehand if you can, that way you get a feel for it.
clear, to the point and a very practical review...thank you so much
Very good reiew, getting convinced that i have to buy it.
Glad you found it helpful!
Great video! I have recently started looking into this lens as a replacement for my Canon 70-300MM. It's been a good lens and takes great pictures, but I find I'm still longing for more reach. I mainly use for my son's lacrosse and baseball games, plus I captured some great shots at a Buffalo Bills game in 2019! I think your example photos really helped make my decision.

Getting rid of my 70-300 as well... this is the go I think.
Great review! Super zooms are incredible. I'm so happy you were able to get those amazing shots! Well done!
thank you so much!
Finally a new video, thought a bear might have got you. Well, my popcorn is ready, but not sure my bank account is, but I know I am going to want this.
Thanks for the kind words and the concern! No recent bear encounters, but I hear the javelinas can get aggressive if you get too close 😅
As a Nikon 200-500 user, I really like this new Sigma. The wide angle (if you can call it that) 60mm side is very appealing. Thanks so much for introducing us to it. As usual, great video Nicole!

@@saabvanderlinden9214 Absolutely love it. Been a reliable performer and gotten countless pro-level photos on my pair of D7200s. It has my recommendation.
5:44 wow the subject separation from the backround seems pretty good for a zoom with this aperture!!!
Yes definitely :)
that lens looks really good!

@@NicoleGlass I know I am happy with it thanks to you I shot an Owl with it and some other birds. Hope to really use it more in the New Year

All of my Canon lenses appear to work fine with the Canon control ring mount. I have the older 150-600 Sigma lens but I have not tried that on the new camera yet.
Wow, Santa was nicer to you than he was to me!! What did I do wrong? 😅 Enjoy the new camera, I’m jealous! 📷
Check for attentiveness on 9th second ))), focal distances range 60 to 60 mm. Nevertheless, video is great as usual, thanks. Happy New Year!
I know 😩😩😩 I saw it right after I posted it and I am kicking myself. That, along with my pronounciation of javelinas. But thank you. Happy New Year!
0:06 real supertele 60-60mm 😀
Hi Nicole: Nice video. Very informative and helpful. Can you please share the tripod head you use for this lens ? thanks Tanmay
Have you considered getting the cotton mounting vest or other similar for that lens. I got one and made bearing this lens to maximum confort.
No but I should look into it. Do you have a link?

may i use this lens for my DSLR
April 26 2024 Hi Nicole: Annotation says 60-60MM instead of 60-600MM. I would like to know if you get noticable ghosting when pointing it at the Sun. Thank you.
At 4:50...How in the world did you hand hold that smoothly? I just got the 150-600 C version and can confirm your thoughts. Amazing lenses. This will round out my lens selection as I use a Nikon 18-200mmm 3.5-5.6 VR which I also use as a pseudo-macro.
I filmed at 60fps, slowed it down to 40% and used warp stabilizer on top of it. I think the focal length was between 300 and 400mm too. So that combination of factors allowed me to get a smooth clip.
The 150-600 is great! Hope you enjoy it:)
Wow versus what? Better than 200-500?
Nice video. This lens is very versatile. But I wonder why did you put a cover on your camera ?
It protects it from scratches, dust, dirt.. I’ve broken cameras before so I’m more careful now
Nice video, Like n.155 and Happy New Year from Italy :)
Thank you! Happy New Year :)
I am thinking to buy RF 100-500 for Canon R5. How Sigma 60-600 will perform with RF adapter on R5. Any suggestion...this is a great 👍 Video. Thx

Great video...I have the 150-600 C... on a 70D canon..I am going to try it on a monopod...just unwieldy for me...The shots I get are really great but the weight is against me ! Might sell it...
Try out a pistol grip tripod. Helped me so much!

Thank you...will look into this
I had sigma 100-400mm for a while now, it's fantastic both the zoom range and the quality.
Lately I’ve used sometimes my 300mm F4 on an APS DSLR 🙂
Awesome! I bet you got some great shots
@@NicoleGlass just a few, thanks!
Ive seen reviews on the 60-600mm lens. At 60mm most say there is fringeing. What are your thoughts?
Yeah I saw that too. The only time I saw a small amount of fringing was when I photographed a tree in front of a white background. It was quite minor though.
What kind of tripod are you using
This Manfrotto tripod I got years ago - Manfrotto MT190CXPRO4 4 Section... www.amazon.com/dp/B00G36G76Q?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

Nice one
Thanks!
What kind of tripod do you use with that Sigma 60-600mm? The other day mine did not hold up to it.
I use this Manfrotto tripod - I've had it for years: amzn.to/2X7mKSO Which one do you have?
Now, if I could just figure out how to afford that lens...........LOL.
Yeah it’s definitely not cheap
Is it a constant 4.5?
No at 600mm it is 6.3
Thank you
Question from a newbie: I would like to take videos of birds in my backyard similar to this example on RUclips: ( ruclips.net/video/xbs7FT7dXYc/видео.html ) where the camera is stationary on a tripod and pointed at one spot while recording birds landing and eating food ( not flying in the air ). I have am considering buying a Sony A7Siii and a Sony FE 200-600mm F5.6-6.3 G OSS Super Telephoto Zoom Lens but don't know if that is the best option. I am concerned the SonyA7Siii does not have enough pixels and I am concerned the Sony FE 200-600mm will not work well at dawn or dusk which I read is a problem with that lens. Do you have any advice on which camera and lens to buy to take bird the type of bird videos I want to capture ? Thank you.
Yaaa zzzz little gurlymon lens..Are you sure it's not to heavy for you? You don't understand lens F-stops or speed do you? I use a lowepro supertrekker to haul around my 300 F2.8 Nikon. Oh and it's pronounced H'a va' li'na
Great info...but work on spanish.....Javelina....pretend the j is a h
I think hi this very heavy...🙏...??
6 lbs !
8-10 seconds in and the top left shows SIGMA 60-60MM .....oops Eh! Yeah we all know it's a SIGMA 60-600mm but hey it's not my channel LOL
Yeah I noticed that after I posted it... but you guys know what I mean 😬
@@NicoleGlass Just my inspector/designer/artist coming out ...sorry
don't feed the sqwirls nicole.
That's a gross over exaggeration of 60mm to 600mm at 3.36 minutes. Know way a 60mm to 600mm lens would magnify the animal that much. You must of cropped the picture. If my 600mm lens could magnify an animal that much I would be so happy.
Picture is not cropped. Perhaps it looks more exaggerated because the first photo was taken vertically, making the sheep look even smaller on your screen.
@@NicoleGlass With all due respect, a 60 to 600mm is a 10 times magnification not 100 times. I just have to measure the animal, then times it by 10, to get the size it would be at 600mm. That how it works with most lenses. Unless this lens is really special. Also the sun is to the left on the 60mm picture, then to the right and behind you on the 600mm picture. You may not of cropped, but moved and got closer. At 60mm picture you are looking down on subject, then at 600mm, level with the animal. All the best.
