Sigma 150-600mm f/5-6.3 DG DN OS Sports Lens for Leica L Mount Summary
The L Mount alliance is seeing a host of new full frame models added to the  including this Sigma 150-600mm f/5-6.3 DG DN OS Sports Lens. This super telephoto zoom arrives with a brand new design made from the ground up to harness the best of Sigma’s optical experience combined with lightweight mirrorless camera technology. Features include a series of pro-level controls and customisable buttons for quicker workflows when capturing sports, action, birds and wildlife subjects.
Uncompromising optical performance is apparent throughout the zoom and aperture range with high resolving power to keep up with high resolution sensors. You can also isolate subjects with smooth rounded bokeh and soft out of focus areas and you’ll notice reduced ghosting and flare with high contrast results. The 150-600mm Sports lens also offers high precision AF, which is fully compatible with ,  and  Autofocus systems.
The optical formula for mirrorless Leica L camera is made up of 25 elements with 4 FLD and 2 SLD special elements. These counteract aberrations whist maintaining formidable sharpness and clear details. Naturally with Sigma’s professional Sports naming we also see dust and moisture resistance along with a casing which incorporates temperature resistant aluminium and TSC (Thermally Stable Composite).
Sigma 150-600mm f/5-6.3 DG DN OS Sports Lens for L Mount in More Detail
Uncompromising optical performance
Users can expect consistently professional results from the 150-600mm f/5-6.3 DG DN OS Sports Lens for L Mount cameras. This is apparent throughout the zoom range and across all apertures, which are notably bright for a lens of this type. Optical aberrations are well controlled by the new mirrorless design, which harnesses 25 elements arranged in 15 groups including high-performance glass. This allows the lens to keep pace with even high resolution Lumix and Leica sensors to render excellent sharpness with clear details. You’ll see this resolution right through to the maximum 600mm zoom, being a trait for which  have garnered a formidable reputation.
Sigma also paid considerable attention to out of focus areas for the 150-600mm f/5-6.3 Sports lens, by including a 9-blade rounded diaphragm that renders extremely pleasing bokeh. If you shoot backlit subjects you’ll also notice well controlled ghosting and flare with the lens maintaining contrast and sharpness even in difficult shooting conditions.
The 150-600mm includes a very useful maximum magnification ratio of 1:2.9 at 180mm and you can also shoot impressively close at 58cm at 150mm down to 280cm at 600mm. This opens up further versatility for tele-macro and close up images and videos.
High-precision AF and pro-level functionality
Sigma’s Sports range is designed with professional users in mind and the 150-600mm f/5-6.3 DG DN OS includes their latest technology to keep up with fast moving subjects. The lens combines fast and quiet internal focusing with excellent tracking of moving subjects from an AF actuator controlled by a stepping motor. There’s a high-precision magnetic sensor that enables extremely accurate positioning to assist this fast accurate AF. Fine tuning focus on more difficult subjects is supported by DMF and AF+MF, of appeal to those who might shoot birds in foliage, or subjects behind a foreground for example.
Optical image stabilisation offers up to 4-stops of compensation benefitting handholding at slower shutter speeds or in darker situations. An OS switch along with custom mode switches also allow the user to change between settings to suit different shooting situations. A focus limiter switch caters reduces focus hunting to speed up AF performance and there are also three customisable AFL buttons.
Sigma’s Dual Action Zoom mechanism supports both straight zooming and ring zooming, allowing you to change the angle of view in a quick and intuitive way. You can also change zoom resistance with a new Zoom Torque switch and there’s a useful lock to eliminate any creep.
Robust build quality
Sigma has made the 150-600mm f/5-6.3 DG DN OS Sports Lens as robust as possible, complementing subjects commonly found with super telephotos. These include incorporating a dust and splash resistant structure with a water and oil repellent coating on the front element. The lens body includes aluminium and TSC parts (Thermally Stable Composite). TSC ensures the lens works consistently at different temperatures, acting in a similar way to aluminium.
We’re also happy to see the addition of a replaceable Arca Swiss-type magnesium tripod socket which is compatible with a huge range of  and  straight out of the box.
Other features and specs
Great results are delivered without the need for editing through camera-based lens aberration corrections. The included lens hood (LH1034-01) is long enough to reduce stray light and internal reflections, helping achieve high contrast and reducing ghosting or flare in images. As with all of Sigma’s professional lenses you’ll find a durable brass bayonet mount together with overall high quality ‘Made in Japan’ craftsmanship.
