I HAVE to give that a try some time. It sounds like a hoot to fiddle with.

Sure, if you have an alpha mount body, you can borrow it.

Awesome. Big lenses rule!

By the way, would something like that work on my Canon XTi?

Sigma does make that lens in canon mount, but you won't get IS, which is pretty much mandatory at 500mm because the max aperture is f6.3. You'll need a lot of light.

All current cameras except for some Voightlanders use what is called a bayonet mount. All of the curent SLR makera use their own version of the bayonet mount. Nikon uses the F mount, canon the EF mount, Pentax the K mount, Leica uses either the M mount or R mount & Minolta/Sony uses the A mount, otherwise known as the Alpha mount.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. The lens seems quite affordable, but like you said, with no IS, dragging a tripod everywhere I go would be a bit of a pain...

Yeah, but you're going to have to pay $6500 for the 500mm L IS lens, no?
