The Nikon F-mount 150-600mm f/5-6.3 DG OS HSM, produced by Sigma, presents an impressively adaptable range within a compact design. This Contemporary-series telephoto zoom lens is distinguished by its advanced optical performance and user-friendly handling. It incorporates one FLD element and three SLD elements to effectively minimize color fringing and chromatic aberrations across the entire zoom spectrum. Furthermore, a Super Multi-Coating is applied to reduce flare and ghosting, enhancing contrast and color fidelity, particularly in challenging lighting situations.
In addition to its optical excellence, this lens is equipped with a Hyper Sonic Motor, ensuring rapid and silent autofocus capabilities, along with the option for full-time manual focus override. An Optical Stabilizer is also integrated to reduce the effects of camera shake, facilitating sharper images during handheld shooting.

- Telephoto zoom is designed for FX-format Nikon F-mount cameras, however can also be used with DX models where it provides a 225-900mm equivalent focal length range. It is also compatible with the Nikon D5000.
- One F Low Dispersion (FLD) and three Special Low Dispersion (SLD) elements are featured in the optical design and help to reduce color fringing and chromatic aberrations for improved clarity and color accuracy.
- A Super Multi-Layer Coating has been applied to lens elements in order to minimize lens flare and ghosting and contribute to producing contrast-rich and color-neutral imagery, even in backlit conditions.
- Integrated HSM (Hyper Sonic Motor), along with a rear focus system, realizes quick and quiet autofocus, which is further complemented by an optimized AF algorithm to produce smoother focusing performance. The HSM also permits full-time manual focus control simply by rotating the focus ring at any time.
