Comments about Sigma 800mm f/5.6 EX DG APO HSM Autofocus Lens for Canon EOS:
I bought the lens after reading several reviews, positive and negatives. Anyway I did not want to pay [$] for a 800mm from Canon and found out the Sigma served me perfectly. The lenses is sharp and has good contrast, it has that yellowish tinge of sigma but easily correctable. I took good pictures at 200 sec with a monopod, any way for more consistent results I will advise the use of a solid tripod like Gitzo 4330 ls. I love this lense i use it for surf and wild live.
