Lame-Duck I have indeed had pine nuts  More info | Sep 30, 2019 13:47 | #48664 BlueTraveler wrote in post #18935740 Thanks Mike. I have not tried the Sigma. In May, I entered my favorite camera store (Foto Forum, Phoenix) with cash in hand to buy a new Canon 100-400mm, but a trusted store employee, along with a customer who already owned a Tamron 150-600 G2, strongly suggested the Tamron. I decided to go for the extra reach while saving $1,000. I'm really happy with the lens, but I always do some sharpening in lightroom as per Anthony Morganti's videos on youtube. My guess is that everyone does some post production sharpening, though. Thank you Mike. I appreciate your answering my question about the Tamron 150-600 G2. I've been intending to purchase the Tamron or the Sigma for quite sometime now. I keep flip-flopping back and forth between the two. But I guess it's basically the old Chevy, Ford question. I am very impressed with your results using the Tamron lens, but I know that the great results you get are really due to the photographer, and not so much with the lens itself. LD, or Mike

I was very lucky and fortunate to see this bird. Very nicely photographed, Paul. Vintage Racer wrote in post #18935890  DSC_0695 by Glynn Hobbs, on FlickrWow...What a nice close-up shot, Glynn.

R5 , 600mm. F4 L IS II , RF 100-500, EF 100 F2.8 L IS macro, 1.4 Tc.III . 
When I shoot with my 500mm plus a 2X, on a tripod...I don't get the amazing sharpness that you do hand holding your 600mm plus 2X.
