Blogalicious: a philippine photo odyssey

I want this one!!! thinking of buying a bazooka lens? this is it! Just wondering how much this will cost once it hits our shores…  Can you imagine carrying this around.. once you remove it from the bag am sure heads will turn.. and chances are you will get a lot of attention even before you start shooting… shoot fast before people start asking questions and wondering what you are doing with a Bazooka!

The Sigma Corporation introduces the new APO 200-500mm F2.8 EX DG Ultra-Telephoto zoom lens.

The APO 200-500mm F2.8 EX DG is the world’s first Ultra-Telephoto zoom lens that offers a fast aperture of F2.8 at 500mm focal length. It covers the widely used 200 to 500mm focal length range, and maintains its fast F2.8 aperture over the entire zoom range. Four SLD (Special Low Dispersion) glass elements provide excellent correction for all types of aberrations and produce a high level of optical performance throughout the entire zoom range.

Shooting distance and focal length can be viewed on LCD panel. You can also add a filter inserted at rear of the lens, and a circular polarizing filter can be used with its  rotation mechanism.

A dedicated 2x APO Tele Converter EX DG II is supplied as a standard accessory with the APO 200-500mm F2.8 EX DG.

Its Bazooka/Canon design minimises image degradation usually associated with tele converters. When this dedicated tele converter is used with the APO 200-500mm F2.8 EX DG lens, it becomes a large aperture 400-1000mm F5.6 AF Ultra-Telephoto Zoom lens.
