Finally getting around to running tests to find what works best with this lens,starting with what shutter speeds will work with VR,on my tamron i found i could go as high as i liked,not sure the weather was right today as its raining but i was bored.

Just been having a quick go with the V2 and Sigma,its was on a tripod and Gimble head, not stable enough for slow shutter speeds with a 600mm lens giving a FOV = to 1620mm @ 1/60th,although in another thread i had been told never use VR on a tripod:D just occasionally i know what ime talking about,the problem was at that shutter speed i picked up a bit of subject movement.

More tests needed but here are the first two
