It went through Nikon QC and Nikon should stand by that that they ship! -- teleportation kills |

Yeah right... -- teleportation kills I think the Canon 1DsMKIII is doing in-body colour correction compared to the old Nikon D3X. If you switch to the D810, it does more or less the same thing. In this comparison, the Sigma looks better though. But then that particular Sigma is also $600 more than the Nikon, so I'd expect better images. The camera can handle the expected resolution, other samples shows that. The problem is obviously the lens. http://www.the-digital-picture.com/R...le-Crops.aspx?

Yeah right... I did my own testing with that lens. My go, no go results: Sharp , contrasty, with faster focus tracking on my D500 than either the Sigma, the expensive one, or the Tamron. Practical limitation for me. I gave it the ultimate test, which it failed. The lens was too heavy for me to carry for more than about an hour. -- PeterN |

Went to Nickerson last week, without my chair and caret. It too me longer to get back to my car, than I spent shooting. ;-( It was a big mistake not taking a chair. BTW your comment about C/A: While I didn't test for that, here's what Thom Hogan has to say: http://www.dslrbodies.com/lenses/nikon-lens-reviews/nikon-200-500mm-f56-lens.html -- PeterN |
