I didn’t realise the sigma needed an adaptor for cannon, I can understand why you would see that as a potential issue.
When I bought my first digital camera I spent months trying to decide which brand to go for. In the end I picked Nikon because of the backwards and sideways compatibility of the lenses. I’m too heavily invested in it now to change, but in the early days I might have considered it.
I must admit to enjoying the comments section on DPreview when I looked up your new lens. I’d forgotten what an enjoyable shitshow the fanboy posts are like; arguments over mtf charts and youtube reviews, that was 20 mins well spent lol.
Not sure I saw the same line of comments, but the one I started with guessed at no weather proofing, which wasn’t a good start at truth. I feel I’m now committed so will take the normal fanboy choice of defending my choice to the death (errr … maybe not).
Too invested to change - oh yes: 16mm, 35mm, 50mm, 100mm macro - v. nice, and a cheapie zoom I never use as it has no AF/MF switch, and the aforementioned 600mm. I do wonder if I should have gone the zoom route rather than prime, but choosing “today’s lens” helps settle my mind in the right mode. So, a zoom is definitely an experiment.
