Let's be honest, you were about five towns away from your subject when shooting at times. But you looked like you had a lot of fun with this vid even if it was a awkward beast.
I couldn't find an official ruling on it, so I didn't want to say something technically incorrect. But yeah, it may well be. Unless someone knows of a larger one?
Theres also a ready mix concrete corporation called the Summit Sigma Ready Mix Concrete Corporation. I somehow remembered this from like a concrete truck on the highway
For street photography tou might want to switch to an alternate ghillie suit - one using trash instead. Blends in much better in most urban areas (sadly enough) There are some nifty videos here on UA-cam, a sarch for trash ghillie or urban ghillie should deliver.
@@zahnatom I already told the guy above he has a good point.. But if you really want a long lens and don’t want the bulk, get one of those mirror lenses.. You can get an 800mm lens that’s a third of the length and probably 1/4th the weight.
The problem is that one needs a justifiable low-light situation to use the f/2.8 (e.g., fast moving objects in low lights). Otherwise, the high ISO performance of the modern cameras would really make such large aperture obsolete.
It's kinda cool as ideas go. Instead of lenses being an attachment to cameras it's a main set tool. Almost like a lenz build into a camera. To be fair it sounds counter intuitive. But funny to see
When I was a projectionist, our then only digital projector was having a problem with the lens assembly. A Barco tech came out when I was on shift and pulled the entire lens assembly out of the projector and had me hold it. His only words were "don't drop it". I asked why, and it turns out that single lens assembly was $30,000. I held that thing with a death grip the next 15 or so minutes he had me hold it while he was working on the unit.
Do you have a license to carry that cannon?
Trust me, officer. this thing can only shoot.
But Sir i was talking about the tank, not the telescope.
That's what she said
Would be even funnier if this was made by Canon.
He be packing
Street photography? Tom, are you strong enough to handheld this thing? You don't look like Hulk.
Honestly, I was a broken man after about an hour of shooting with it 🤣
Back in 2007 Juza of JuzaPhoto hand-held the 200-500mm version of this. There's a photo if you google it. Looks absolutely hilarious.
@@TomCaltonpeople would ran away seeing a random person holding an RPG.
it’s only 34 pounds
15kg is nothing dude
Equip ghillie suit: 100 stealth
Equip sigma lens: -100 stealth
Perfectly balanced, as all things should be.
Obvilion logic right there
dat look like a cannon and i cant even see the small camera 😂
em what the sigma?
The sigma lense IS an army color green. They tried. ::shrugs::
Ermmm... what the sigma?
Gross fishtank reference
Ohh no someone best me to it
🗣️🗣️GET-
Of course, it's called Sigma.
😐
That word was latched onto for a reason lol
Yeah you're gen alpha
what the sigma
Erm what the sigma
Some youtubers will still call this setup "travel friendly"
MKBHD could pull this off
Some aren't fcking weakling like you lol
I was just thinking about him trying to stuff this into that giant case he used to put an iMac in
As well as budget friendly
Well it IS in a pelicase...
There's also the little version called "The Ligma".
what’s ligma?

Definitely, i heard the "likde" is better, especially the updated version
Even the Miata in the back approved 😂
i saw it
@@promartin2093 ok and now?
there's a 992 on the side lol
tbf Miata’s are easily amused
That's an anniversary edition
500mm Zoom with AF at f2.8 is bananas
It's also STUPIDLY heavy 😅
No wonder that the af struggles😂😂
And that's before the metabones makes it act more like F2.0

Your lens has a nice camera
Underrated
You know it's bad when the tripod is on the lens instead of the camera
Most are 🤦♂️
@BraedenRoesler no!
Why?
@@arthur7295 the lens offsets the center of gravity that much
@@BraedenRoesler nah, most aren't wanna mive back to yappsville?
Everyone mounting a lens on a camera, Tom mounting a camera on a lens 😂
Lumix's image engine is on a whole another level. Also the UI is snappier and better looking than the rest. Extremely happy with my GX85.
Haha... The weapon came out again😂
That's what she said
The end broke me 😂😂😂😂😂
That lens is amazing. The photos I took from Atlanta of my Disney Land vacation came out great!
500mm f/2.8 and that too in a zoom lens. That is some incredible glass and hard work in manufacturing it.
Astrophotography.
À ce tarif, un C14 fera l'affaire 😅
terrorist alert, someone is carrying a canon. For street photography look behind you, there are someone in cops uniform following you.
I'm genuinely surprised the cops didn't come tbh
Bro if I knew nothing about photography and saw a guy in a ghilie suit holding what looks like a mini bazooka I’d be OUTTA THERE 😂
I was not ready for the street photography ending ❗️😆
"Bigma" 😂😂 the perfect word for that lens
Ligma bigma
I found wearing a ghillie suit has really improved my street photography. Glad im not the only one. 😂
this is the best Short ive ever watched lol.
If you want even more: Leica made three 1600mm 5.6 lenses.
This is the perfect setup for travel photography
You tried to sneak a Miata in and thought we wouldn't notice
r/sneakybackgroundmiata
Judging by his accent that's not a Miata, but an MX-5.
Nice spot!
A 30th Anniversary one as well!
@@user-zf5vp5so9xr/beatmetoit
I bet that would take amazing low light shots of the stars. If only a star tracker was strong enough
Your lens has a nice camera!

Dammit! You got me there! 😜
this man is asking the important questions!!!
Miata fan here, I noticed that miata at the start, now I need a photoshoot 🗿
“One of the largest commercially available lenses” you’re telling me it’s not THE largest?
I couldn't find an official ruling on it, so I didn't want to say something technically incorrect. But yeah, it may well be. Unless someone knows of a larger one?
@@TomCalton effectivement ! Pour 2 millions d'euros, un 1600mm f5.6 c'est vendu ;) beaucoup plus lourd ! Il faut être 2 personnes .
Oh I gotcha, If you do find one larger I would love to see a video on that haha
@@golden4523 il n'y a pas plus grand pour l'instant. Les plus grands sont les 1200mm canon (commercialisable) :)
Have you seen the Fujinon lens boxes they use for live sports, tv and films, this is tiny in comparison
Appropriately named 'sigma'.
I scrolled back to your video.. to see the yellow mx5, the new ones look good :)
Wow, impressive pictures. Wished u could up more of them for thosw lilkes me (who can only dreamed of such setup) to see.
The sigmonster!
The only thing where I'd describe "sigma" as "not pretentious"
Theres also a ready mix concrete corporation called the Summit Sigma Ready Mix Concrete Corporation.

What the sigma
Erm what the sigma
Normally one would attach a lens to a camera, but with this thing you attach a camera to the lens
Sigma and Canon. Two of the most famous companies when it comes to photographing.
Shit i thought ol gregg was making a comeback at the end
will it balance on my gimbal?
Only if your gimbal happens to be an observatory

Canon been real quiet since this dropped
Perfect for wildlife
And spying on your neighbours... I mean, I guess... 👀
Carries in a gillie suit :
What did you shoot ??
" A DUCK "
Huh ??💀
I have had this question since I purchased an GM-1 years ago. Thank you for showing me.
I chuckled at how you said "attach the camera to the lens" instead of the usual "attach the lens to the camera"
Just 500mm?
200-500mm mais en f2.8 ;)
@@gabrie10cordes good point
broo its f/2.8
or yknow just add a telekonverter lmao

Tbh totally worth it, the Photos look dann good
Result is breathtaking 🙌
Most sigma lens out there
Great efforts 💯💯
Please take into account that using the speed booster will make your small camera front heavy. 😅
literally a "what the sigma" moment

The lenses got a camera on it

That ain a lens
Thats a whole ass telescope
I disagree. The lens is not discontinued. It is available to customers who are willing to pay the exorbitant price tag of $26000.
Maximum upgrage for the starter weapon
Watch gen alpha goin wild with this one
Is no one going to talk about those cars back there
"What's bigma?"
"Bigma balls lol got em"
That's a Javelin 👀🚀
'tis not discontinued, you can order it directly through Sigma
Imagine you are at the park and there is a guy in a ghillie suit and a machine looking like it’s from Raytheon 😂
Me and my family used to live in one of those lenses. The view was amazing.
Another example why the lens matters more than the camera
"Jesus Christ" I laughed so hard hearing it
bro gonna be carrying that like a handheld M134 minigun 💀💀💀
it looks massive too, goddamn.
¡qué privilegios las personas de los países desarrollados!

Nice shots.
