Sigma APO 200-500mm F2.8 EX DG

At first, when I saw the picture, I didn't notice that there was a camera attached to it! :lmao:

Is that made by "Hubble" ?

The Sigma is an auto-focus lens :shrug:

Anyway, people did fine before auto-focus existed...

They think the Sigma APO 200-500mm F2.8 EX DG will be around $20,000 but it could be as low as $15,000.

If all the photo people on the board drop $1k in the pot we might be able to acquire one! Every contributor would have possession of the lens for 2.5 - 3.5 weeks for the year. :larry:

My that is a big lens or are you just happy to see me

vanbells · Mar 11, 2007

I can't imagine the case for that. It's probably a golf cart.
