Does the Sig have tripod detecting OS? (ie. turn itself off)

Depends on the user. Sometimes it's built in although my stickie thread shows otherwise.

Oh, new addition, one from the sells thread.

Best to leave sarcasm to the English :rolleyes:

GyRob, you are probably getting sick of all the requests but would it be possible to see comparisons when on a tripod with OS off.
If you can't be bothered then don't worry, I'm sure there will be plenty of tests soon.

Can't imagine it any different than the Bigma. Hand held is hand held, more or less based on the user.

Nice again Lars ... good that we're now getting a much more varied selection of shooters showing results. I'm starting to think this lens can now fill a clear gap: high quality 500mm with OS for a very attractive price. Be great if more folks can start shooting birdies and wildlife and getting good results without having to go out spending silly money.

Yup. After seeing Rob's shots where he stopped down to f/8 and the image cleaned up rather nicely I think this will have to be on my very short list of "To Buy" items.
