Anyone try this with the Sigma 50-500mm? or even the Sigma 150-500??

Picture is OK after I sharpened it with Elements 7.0. Shot Sigma 150-500mm at 500mm on tripod at ISO 100 f14 and 1/800 of a second.

I have Sigma 150-500 for Canon. It works great with Sigma Teleconverter AF 2x DG using Canon 5D MK III, 70D, T3, and T5 with Manual Exposure or Auto without 2x.

I have both the 150-500 and 50-500 Sigma lenses (A-mount) and it works with both of them. I use them on Sony E-mount cameras with a Sony A-mount to E-mount adapter. IS works with the teleconverter but AF does not. All other function work. This converter works especially well with these lenses for wildlife subjects.

I've had the 50mm 1.8 and the kit lens, and I can definitely say this will blow both of them away! This is essentially a high-quality upgrade from the kit lens, and in my opinion gives at least as good an image result as the 50mm prime - but with the range of a zoom. The 35mm I don't have experience with, but I would still bet that the Sigma would compete just fine :)

I use it with mine. Works well. Just need a 77mm filter thread or an adaptor for your particular lens.

I would suggest you check the page that sells this product separately, where there is a widget to check if the lens will work with a given camera. Sigma 150-500mm f/5-6.3 Auto Focus APO DG OS HSM Telephoto Zoom Lens for Canon Digital SLR CamerasBased on the answer I got there, it says it will work.

I have not been happy with the auto focus. I have used this lens with both a cannon T3 and a cannon 70D. The problem is it will no come into focus. I have contacted sigma asking if there is anything that can be done about this. I have not yet gotten a reply.

Thank you guys, really appreciate you help. I was in confused state in selecting sigma 50-150mm f/2.8 or tamron 70-200mm f/2.8 macro, but after a week study i have selected this sigma 50-150mm which is exactly in my budget. Once again thank you guys.

I use it on a d3000 and d7000 . Only time I have issues with it is when it's used on my APO 150-500 sigma lens . The lens has trouble auto focusing .

I didn't try this on rebel series...but since same lens goes on both t3i and 60/70 d, I am pottery confident that the sigma lens would fit as well

I used the 1.4X teleconverter with the Sigma 300 f. 2.8, for pentax. So I do not have experience on its use with the 18-250 Sigma lens. Any way I'm not very happy of it, there is huge decay in quality and in focus. I would not suggest to any friend of mine to buy it.

I am not using Canon 500mm but I expect it will work fine. The Gimball head is good enough to support my 600mm with the other gear (total ~ 15lb +)

What body do you use? This will blow the 50 out of the water. Amazing lens.

Anyone know if this will work with a Sigma EF-500? I can't see why one would need a Nikon-brand flash unit for it to work... anyone?

It works with the d5000, but not with all lenses. it has to be a special type of lens. I dont remember right now what it is called, but you will have to check if it works with the lens you have in mind to use. I use it for my 300f4.

No. In my review I noted it only works with canon lenses. Sigma and others will not work

I use my Sigma 19mm exclusively on an EM5 and am quite pleased with this combo. Quick focus, sharp images and looks and feels great on OMD too.....also have the Sigma 60mm lens and it is superb!

Yes, I used it with my Nikon D3100 (F mount) to adapt a couple sigma lenses (technically sony alpha mount, or equivalent). It feels great, no wobbles or anything. As noted in previous comment, must work in full manual control and may need to change flash settings (turn TTL off). There is an aperture ring on the adapter that is actually pretty nice, but makes it tough in low light w/o a tripod...make note of that when considering what lenses you are using. Overall I would highly recommend this product, especially since you really have no other choice!

I have to say yes. I use it on a d-5100, and they both have F lens mounts, so It pretty much has to work. I use it mostly coupled with a Sigma 150-500, and it works well, didn't lose auto focus either.
