If you don’t believe in religion I strongly recommend you buy this product. While trying to get a close up picture of Neptune, Jesus Christ jumped into view. After sharpening the image you can see my reflection in his eyeball. I will never question my Nana again.

5.0 out of 5 stars Don’t hate– Compensate!

I was born with a small f-stop. For most of my adolescence, my Meager Ratio (what I call him) was a source of shame. But later on in life, as I matured, I was able to come to terms with my lot in life. I’d tell myself that it’s fine; some girls like a really narrow depth of field. Afterall, “it’s not the size of your lens, it’s how you work your aperture” and all that.

But then I came across the Sigma 200-500mm and now my life has totally changed. When it arrived, I told my girlfriend I was bringing her a huge bokeh and showed up with this bad boy. She didn’t get it, but I laughed super hard. She was probably just distracted by the sheer girth of this thing. I bet she’ll get the joke later.

When I whip this puppy out, everyone stares. I might still be shooting with a 2.8, but with the focal length of this lens, you’d never know. My friends have all been asking me what’s different; a new workout routine? new job? hair transplant? Nope, it’s this beast I have slung over my shoulder. At the gym, work parties, weddings or funerals – everyone wants to talk about it’s sheer size and the diameter of my glass.

So if you’re thinking about getting a souped up, lifted Super Duty truck just to misdirect folks, save yourself a little cash and get this lens instead.

Don’t hate– Compensate!
