  • I need an advice for new lens .

    Hi,
    I'm Nikonian and I'm planning to buy a new tele lens for spotting . I think Sigma 135-400 is good (80-400mm lenses are expensive for me) . Who did you use this lens can give me an advice ?
    Thanks and Merry Xmas all

    I have it and I think it is very medicore at best. If you do not absolutely need the 400mm I would strongly recommend the Nikon AF-S 70-300VR, which I just got new and I am very pleased with its performance.

    Nikon
    [photoid=5885012]

    Sigma 135-400
    [photoid=5734613]

    You should get many more keepers with the Nikon imho.

      70-300mm VR is more expensive than 135-400 and it don't have tripod colar . I don't need VR (I'll chose 80-400 VR or OS but not 70-300 VR)

        It does not need a tripod colar. It is sol ight and compact that you can easily attack the tripd to your camera bodue. Here it is less then 10% more expensive, but imho the optical quality is clearly more then 10% better.

        And considering both are 5.6 at the long end, VR is not to be discounted.
