Ouch! Maybe I should hope for delivery from FedEx.


UPS is NOT my shipper of choice. To me they are as bad if not worst than USPS(although I have a good mailman). Had problems with UPS on quite a few occasions with shipping damage. All of which they deny. Fed EX is the way to go. If I have a choice I'll pay the extra for Fed Ex.

How many here have pre-ordered the new to be released Sigma 150-600mm Sport model Lens and what are you hanging it on?
I also wonder if it will be the frenzy of the Tamron when it was released? Any opinions?


I found these sample pictures http://qicai.fengniao.com/479/4793567_all.html#p4793567
These are from a lens at photokina I am unsure if it is a production model.

Trying to decide on canceling my tamron order or not!

I have a feeling there may be a few used Tamrons showing up when this lens hits the streets!

That sure looks like the 150-600 sport. Even though I don't read Japanese or whatever language that is. I like the Eagle pictures.

That's funny. Maybe Tamron might get caught up with demand......Soon.

When hundreds of orders get cancelled then others will get theirs faster, thats a given.

Very true. Frankly, the Tamron never interested me after hearing of the marketing fo-pah! Plus I liked my 150-500 Sigma. Have to stick with what you know.

Well put. I'm used to waiting for what I want. This will prove to be no different.

Was just on the Sigma site and it doesn't list the 150-600 Sport as being compatible with the usb dock. I thought it was...

hmmm....
