Description

A Sigma 400mm, f/5.6 APO telemacro, it never ceases to amaze, I tried with a Kenko 2X teleconverter and still managed to get sharp images. The lens is old and works properly only with my 1D and 1Ds.

Perfect clarity, and gorgeous detail, color, and DOF. I see what you mean about the lens. Could the photographer have something to do with it? #8141187
