I let the lens auto focus in each of these shots with the built in HSM motor that works with my D3200. I may get a 1.4X extender in the future, not sure.

Thank you so much.

I also have the lens, auto-focus works fine as long as you don't put a teleconverter on it. Especially a 2.0 TC will kill autofocus.

Thank you.

I have that lens and that camera. It takes fairly good shots as long as I have it on my heavy duty tripod. It's a lot of fun! Enjoy! :lol:

Thank you Norman. Does the autofocus work seeing that it is an older lens? Do you have any sample photos posted using that lens/camera? Thank you for the thread link. I think I might pass on the converter.

Thank you Jack. I know its an older lens but the newer version
of it is about a thousand dollars more. Yikes! I didn't know wether it was compatible or not.

I'm an amateur photographer and I'm looking for a good, affordable telephoto lens. I want to take pictures of the moon and birds. I have an opportunity to purchase a SIGMA 50-500mm F4-6.3 APO DG EX and a
SIGMA APO TELECONVERTER 2X DG for my nikon d3200. I'm wondering if this is a good fit for what Im looking for. I would appreciate any suggestions. Thank you.

I think he's ok. Rhode Island has not had any really cold temps yet.

Nice photo sparklgrl, but why would you want 'em to "hang in there"?
These critters devastate one's flower and vegetable garden quickly!

Might want to capture him and others, bring them in the warm house, feed them, get them fat and then . .
use him for fishing bait in the late Spring!

Still, a good photo though!

Lol! As appealing as housing them sounds, I think I'm going to have to pass.
