Super-tele meets superzoom

This unique Sigma super-tele boasts a 10x zoom range

-

The Sigma 60-600mm f/4.5-6.3 DG OS HSM | S is unique in stretching all the way from a standard 60mm focal length to a super-tele 600mm. This makes it ideal if you need to adapt from long-range shooting to capturing subjects that are close by, without the risk of missing shots due to swapping the lens out. From Sigma’s ‘Sports’ line-up, it has robust build quality and an up-market optical design that features three top-grade FLD (‘Fluorite’ Low Dispersion) elements and one SLD (Special Low Dispersion) element. Fluorine coatings are applied to the front and rear elements and the lens is weather-sealed. Handling refinement­s are similar to those of the Sigma 150-600mm Sports on test, but quality isn’t as great in terms of sharpness, colour fringing and distortion.

 ?? ?? Priced at £1699/$1999, the Sigma 60-600mm Sports is a very versatile propositio­n, but it’s weighty at 2700g.
