Questions our customers asked
Will this fit my Sony camera?
Yes — it's built for Sony E-mount full-frame bodies (and also covers APS-C).
What's in the box?
The lens, a case, the hood (LH1034-02), the detachable TS-151 tripod socket, and front/rear caps.
Isn't a 500mm prime too heavy to handhold?
Not this one — Sigma built it specifically to be light for its class at 1,365g, and the 5-stop stabiliser helps keep handheld shots sharp.
Can I add a Sigma teleconverter for more reach?
Sigma's TC-1411/TC-2011 are matched to this lens for up to 1,000mm, but they're L-Mount only — not compatible with this Sony E-mount version.
A 500mm F5.6 prime you can actually carry all day.
The Sigma 500mm F/5.6 DG DN OS | Sports is a mirrorless-native ultra-telephoto prime built for wildlife, birding, aviation and sports shooters who need serious reach without a 500mm body's usual bulk. Sigma calls it "remarkably compact and lightweight" for the focal length — on Sony E-mount it weighs just 1,365g (48.1 oz), noticeably lighter than most 500mm primes.
