Robert E Posted October 9, 2021 Share #21 Â Posted October 9, 2021 Advertisement (gone after registration) Don't other photos on this forum come clear through as being sharp? Maybe we could get some compassions with the Leica 90-280 on this post? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sad to say, I'm just not seeing the sharpness I was hoping for. Is it just me? Did u click on the photos ? Because it displays the actual photo once you click on it. Otherwise it’s always alittle blurry Edited October 9, 2021 by Ktsa5239 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

biswasg Posted October 10, 2021 Share #27  Posted October 10, 2021 Advertisement (gone after registration) Those who have both Leica’s VE 90-280 and the Sigma 150-600, I would like to hear your experience on image quality created with Sigma 600mm full frame and Leica 280mm cropped for an equivalent subject size.

Robert E Posted October 10, 2021 Share #28 Â Posted October 10, 2021 Ktsa5239, I stand corrected. When clicking on the photos that do enlarge, I see much sharper detail, thanks. Looks like the lens is working out very well for you. My experience has been once you find a good combination that works, keep it. You may not get another lens that works the same, too many variances in quality control. Hate to think what a Leica 600mm lens would cost, probably 6 times the Sigma. Looking forward to more of your BIF shots! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The image quality of both the SL90-280mm & Sigma 150-600mm are indeed very close on, 1  Sharpness; 2  Contrast; 3  Colour. However the handling on continuous AF tracking performance do differ on challenging situation of BIF, 1  Lock-on success rate (mainly due to size of subject against focus tracking box); 2  Sharp images after successful lock-on.

Robert E Posted October 11, 2021 Share #35  Posted October 11, 2021 Capnord, Those two shots are great, good capture on the Cormorant in flight and the Pipit is tack sharp. Really shows what the Sigma is capable of on the SL2. Thanks for sharing and appreciate the settings info. 😊 Robert 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
