Description and Reviews

Key Take-Aways:

The Sigma 150–600mm f/5–6.3 DG DN OS Sports is a weather-sealed ultra-telephoto zoom for mirrorless with optical stabilization, dual-action (push/pull + ring) zoom, and L-mount teleconverter support in a ~2.1 kg package.  Professional reviews praise its very good sharpness for the class, effective stabilization, robust build and useful close-focus, while noting trade-offs such as heavy weight, a relatively slow maximum aperture, AF tracking that can lag behind class leaders, some vignetting/CA and softer corners at the long end; Cameralabs also reports copy variation affecting portrait-orientation corners.  As of Sep 14 2025, user sentiment on L-mount forums and Reddit is broadly positive. Owners highlight sharp results and stabilization/value—while recurring critiques mention heft and AF/FPS limitations on some bodies; recent threads also note ongoing firmware updates positively.
