[QUOTE="ryanwphoto, post: 288896, member: 23475"] Well, I've been testing this Sigma for a few days now and I love it sometimes and hate it other times! Here are a few test shots.. The one of our dog isn't sharp, I took about 25 shots and this was the sharpest at 500mm. Yet the one of my truck is at 500mm and tack sharp! I'm using back button focus. Does anyone have any tips for grabbing tack sharp shots of my dog/wildlife while they are on the move? I did try 3D focus track but it didn't seem to make much of a difference. All shots are handheld.[ATTACH]81674._xfImport[/ATTACH] The dog shot was taken at ISO 200, 1/1250sec. f/10, 500mm OS on active [ATTACH]81675._xfImport[/ATTACH] My truck shot was taken at ISO 100 1/640sec. f/8 500mm OS on Normal mode [ATTACH]81676._xfImport[/ATTACH] Moon shot was taken at ISO 100 1/250sec. f/8 500mm OS active mode [ATTACH]81677._xfImport[/ATTACH] Window shot was taken at ISO 800 1/160sec. f/8 300mm OS Active.
