Opinion:I took the lens to use it for indoor sports (gyms are often very dark) and in the theater (light even worse!) and I must say that, used with R6 I found myself, weight aside but that was known, very well. I can't compare it with the Canon 2.8 fixed, but I'm really happy with it. To be used exclusively, for a common mortal, with a solid monopod.
Pros:Incredible clarity, construction, stabilizer and excellent yield even with 2x multiplier
Cons:High weight, lack of focus limiter and autofocus speed not comparable to newer models
Opinion:After a few months of use I can give a review of this magnificent lens. I was looking for a lens for naturalistic photos and bird life, I wanted to replace the tamron 150-600 g1 and I was looking for something more performing especially in case of little light and I came across this lens right here on the market and, given the interesting price I decided to buy it. The construction is what is expected from a lens that from new cost about 3000€, beautiful, heavy and massive, only the lampshed is a bit plastic. The optical yield is exceptional, very sharp and with a wonderful blurr. The stabilizer works wonders while the focus is not comparable to canon house tops but is still accurate. In combination with the 2x sigma converter it loses almost nothing and turns into a 240-600 of respect. The only negative note of this objective, as far as I am concerned, is the weight. Combined with the canon 1dx it becomes really heavy and obliges the use of the monopiede. Highly recommended lens

Pros:Superlative sharpness, boken, quality with 2x multiplier, very robust construction, the bracket comes in handy for transport being very heavy
Cons:High cost, weight (long walks are not recommended), lack of a focus limiter, FAST AF (but very far from L-series canons) and unfortunately not up to all situations on fast-moving subjects.
Opinion:What to say, once you buy the wallet for sure it is lighter, but its image quality gives great satisfaction. It's not for everyone, its weight really makes you feel, and carrying it with it sometimes was really gruelling, if mounted on monopod sits very well on the shoulder, and also the tripod bracket is very comfortable for transport. Too bad I don't have a focus limiter, and sometimes on fast scenes I missed some great scenes for this problem as the Af goes into tilt and does the whole lap before hanging up the subject, this for me is a big flaw in such a goal. Certainly if at the same cost the Af was on the same level as an L-series Canon would be the perfect target. Gives stratospheric bokens, holds up well the multipliers (2x in my case) Af slows down a lot though, but on subjects not in rapid motion churns out really remarkable files.
Pros:Sharpest, at least my copy, heavy (I like), fast AF and stabilizer top class.
Cons:footprint and maneuverability hands-free
Opinion:Extraordinary lens, heavy but well balanced, saturated colors and neutrals, af fast and stabilizer perfetto.rnse she weighed 3kg and was a real space-telescope as it would take forever behind, unfortunately, sometimes the convenience and practicality becomes necessary and this objective loses its plus.rni 300mm seem a little optimistic, compared several times with the Biancone if the beats hands down, sometimes I prefer images sigmone.rnUnico its limit as mentioned the weight and size, the weight that I also mentioned the virtues simply because we have the impression that he had in his hands the substance and having spent well over 2k to buy ... excellent lens!
