will the 2X work with a 150 - 500 sigma len

Hi there! This teleconverter will fit in any EF Canon EOS lens and body but not in a EFS lens or body. Make sure your lens and body has the red dot mark. Hope this helps. Have a great day.

I honestly do not know. I have a canon camera and I love this added lens. Learning curve at first though.

Assuming it is for your camera, it will work fine. Two issues are to be remembered. It reduces the light by half so automatic focus may not work properly and forget low light pics. The other is that a sturdy tripod and external trip are essential because of the telescopic magnification also increases the movement.

I don't know, but I can tell you that the converter I bought was terrible - even my 12 year old could see that it reduces quality unacceptably. I guess this sort of lends is good only for observation photos where quality is less of an issue. I wish I hadn't bought ours.

Not sure. I have a tamron 17-50, which is a dx lens and not bad but am selling it anyway to upgrade to an fx lens.

Hello, the 50-150 is an APS-C sized lens, so it will work with your camera in the DX crop mode, and will give the reduced resolution that mode results in. The effective focal length would be as if the lens were on a DX body, as well as the commensurate impact on depth of field.

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.

No, the 2.2x does not work well for macro. The wide-angle lens works for macro with the included adapter. The wide-angle less uses part of the lens.

It works with 2 different models, the rox series and the older model sigmas

I use mine with a Sigma 150-500 zoom on a Nikon body with a mono-pod. Works great.

Yes, the other people who are talking about the diameter of the threads, at the end of the lense, where the filters thread on, are correct. The reference of 4.2 to 129mm, they are talking about the effective, equivalent, length of the lense compared to a 35mm film camera. Because the sensors on the sx500 is smaller, it acts like a longer lense. Buy the professional kit that says it works with the sx500, and it will have the correct diameter lense filters.Enjoy!!!!

Of course it will, I have a Canon 60D and love this lens...But if you want full format the DX Sigma's are great.

Not having this zoom lens, I cannot answer. If Sigma claims it needs an 85mm thread, it ought to work.

Search for this, should be fine: Sigma 150-500mm F/5-6.3 APO DG OS HSM Autofocus Lens For Canon EOS Lens Kit Bundle

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'm pretty sure it would work quite well with the 500mm lens itself, but if you use the included 2x extension plus the 1.4x extension for a 1400mm focal length, I suspect the image quality might leave something to be desired.

That's the same camera I have, and I use a Tamron 70-300 for my moon shooting. Sure, the 2x converter works, but remember that you won't have automatic focusing.

With Sigma look for DG in the lens description to identify FX compatible lenses. In the case of the Sigma 150-500mm f/5-6.3 AF APO DG OS HSM. the letters DG are what you care about and OS (optical stabilized) for long lenses like this one. I use this lens on my D700, D800 and D80 (IR converted) with good results. Go for it. Good price and my experience is that it is a good lens.

I checked the Sigma website. It appears to work except for built in flash. http://www.sigma-photo.co.jp/english/flash_and_accessory/flash/flash_610dg_super_match.html

Probably, but I'm not the expert. There's a table of lens compatibility on Sigma's web site. I also spoke with a Sigma tech Rep --- very helpful.
