Can anyone help to recommend any good, sharp 500mm Tele or zoom?
My budget is around S$1,500.
I've some options:
1) Get a used M42/Nikon mount 500mm Mirror (Don't know whether is it sharp?) Anyone used one before care to share your experience?
2) Looking at sigma 170-500mm non DG? Any comments on this lens? read many reviews but are very mixed? Is there a major diff between non-DG and DG? some reviews said DG is better?
3) Sigma 50-500mm, review showed that this is a much better lens but it's out of my budget?
My objective is to own a 500mm lens that's reasonably sharp and if I can save $$$ on the lens like buying a M42 mount lens, that would be preferred.
Please let me know you recommendations......and experiences if you have used any of the lens.
Thank you
