Post by Trev Sawyer »

I know there was talk about the new Sigma 150mm macro lens with Optical Stabilisation a while back...

Maybe I should start doing the lottery :wink:

Looks good Trev, and if the OS is as good as it is on my Siggy 150-500, it'll be well worth it. :D Tiz a bit pricey tho. :(
Cheers,,, Zonda.

Its got the same RRP as your 150-500 Zonda, £999. The best price I can see on the web for that is £589.00, so I recon the 150 os will drop quite a bit soon.

Hope their a bit sturdier than the flipping flimsy old 150. :x

Which reminds me did you ever get the autofocus switch working on your one as my switch only works intermittently now?
