This is a pretty traditional design that looks and behaves much like their DSLR equivalents, though with an important caveat. While Tamron has taken a unique approach to design on the Sony platform, Sigma has largely elected to go head to head with Sony offerings. The 150-600 DN will also be released in a Leica L mount. These tests and the photos shown in the review have all been done with the new Sony Alpha 1 which will serve as my benchmark camera for the foreseeable future ( my review here). There are still some variables to consider here, but there’s no question that Sigma will make some waves with their new lens, which we’ll refer to as the Sigma 150-600 DN for brevity in this review. It “sports” a larger zoom range, has a great built and good autofocus, and really delivers on the optical end while still undercutting Sony in price. But now Sigma is dropping its greatest challenger yet an optically excellent big telephoto that reaches all the way to 600mm – the Sigma 150-600mm F5-6.3 DG DN OS Sport. The most recent challenger to the Sony FE 200-600mm OSS was the Tamron 150-500mm F5-6.7 Di III VC VXD ( my review here), which made for a different alternative due to a different kind of design that resulted in a much more compact lens (and a fair bit cheaper). The Sigma 100-400mm F5-6.3 DN OS ( my review here) later came to market as an affordable alternative, though that lens is more of a cheaper alternative to the Sony 100-400mm G Master lens ( my review here). I gave it very high marks in my review and eventually purchased one for myself.
I found Sony’s development of the FE 200-600mm F5-6.3 G OSS lens in 2019 very welcome because it gave Sony shooters the first long lens with a somewhat affordable price point. The Sony telephoto wars are heating up! For a long time the big hole in the Sony lineup was anything over 200mm.
