Sigma 150 - 600 Contemporary Clear Image Zoom Sony a6300 Sigma MC11 Converter | Great Gray Owl

For the best experience, I recommend you to watch the video on a larg screen and activate 4K in youtube settings so you can see what the lens and Sony a6300 using the Clear Image Zoom performs.
You will find a complete review of Sigma 150-600mm Contemporary. • Sigma 150-600 Contempo...
Here are some video samples of how good sharpness, it will be using the Clear Image Zoom on Sony a6300.
Sigma Contemporary 150-600mm Converter MC-11 Canon EF E mount for Sony a6300. Most clips are shot with Clear Image Zoom enabled on the Sony a6300 camera.
I had the good fortune to see a Great Gray Owl who willingly let it be filmed. It was a wonderful experience I have been waiting for.

Absolutely the best wildlife video I've seen with this camera & lens combination. I have the same setup for whitetail deer and will be encouraged to use clear image zoom more for my video's after watching this. I'm jealous of your editing skills.

[@benkelino]

Thanks so much! I highly recommend using Clear Image Zoom. It's an amazingly good feature on the a6300.

[@knutfugl]

Absolutely beautiful. Very well filmed. My favorite owl.
I wish you a great weekend.
Best regards, Knut.

[@benkelino]

Thanks so much Knut. I really appreciate your praise. Now I will look into your channel. It looks interesting.

Fantastic shots and great cut to a "story"! .... typical Bengt :-)
Fantastiska bilder och bra skuren till en "Storry"! .... typiska Bengt :-)

[@benkelino]

Thanks for the kind words Schmitzlinden. Yeah, that's probably me. I find it fun to make a story of nothing. :-)
Danke für die freundlichen Worte Schmitzlinden. Ja, das ist wahrscheinlich ich. Es macht mir Spaß, aus nichts eine Geschichte zu machen. :-)

Superb photography.

[@benkelino]

Thanks :-)

If you are seriously interested in what this telephoto lens plus the Clear Image Zoom feature of the Sony a6300 camera performs, watch the video in a computer with the highest resolution (4K)

Whats your experience wih autofocus on video? I have heard both good and bad reviews of the combination of this lens and the mc-11 for afc. Great video!

[@benkelino]

Thanks so much! Af with that set is not as fast as one would like. In this video I have only used manual focus and it works quite well I think. It may be a little slower to get the sharpness that can be seen in some scenes in the video. But it is something you can practice getting faster. If you expect a quick Af then this solution is not the best unfortunately. However, I am very pleased with the image quality of this lens.

Tjena! Hur tycker du den funkar med autofokusen när den måste reagera fort? Såsom flygande fåglar,fåglar som ska lyfta/landa etc. Grym video! :)

[@benkelino]

Hej! Tack för att du tittade på min lilla ugglevideo.
Autofofokusen funkar inte speciellt bra dessvärre.
Den är extremt långsam och dessutom är det ett knäppande ljud
som hörs när den söker skärpa, vilket hörs på inspelningen.
Jag ställer alltid skärpan manuellt.
Nu har inte jag kollat på länge så det kanske finns en mjukvarauppdatering
till objektivet och även MC11 Convertern som fixar det problemet.

[@balu1321]

It looks great, can you tell me, how works the Autofocus? I have hearing, that it needs many time. Thank you

[@benkelino]

Thanks! I almost always use manual focus. Auto focus is slightly too slow and a ticking sound is heard from the lens.

[@grzegorzkrajewski1095]

Haven't you use tripod?

[@benkelino]

I have used a tripod but not a world-class tripod. You are probably referring to some shaky images. The ground in that area was soft and muddy in some places. If you just rub the tripod a little, it shakes and the shaking is greatly enlarged with 1800mm focal length. (600 x 1.5 crop factor plus the Sony camera´s 2x Clear Image Zoom = 1800) Even a little breeze makes the tripod shake. Filming the handheld with that lens is a major challenge. 😊

Why use the sigma just buyy the sony 200-600mm

[@benkelino]

Yes why.
1. Sony 200-600mm was not for sale when the video was recorded.
2. Sony 200-600mm is twice as expensive as Sigma 200-600mm.
But if you have a large wallet, buy a Sony 200-600mm. 😉
