Sigma 100-400mm f/5-6.3 DG OS HSM Contemporary - Nikon F

Sigma 100-400mm f/5-6.3 DG OS HSM Contemporary is a full-frame telephoto zoom with 100-400mm reach and optical stabilisation. Announced in 2017, it was Sigma’s lighter, more affordable answer to big 100-400mm lenses, aimed at wildlife, air shows, travel and outdoor sports where long reach matters more than constant aperture. The lens uses Sigma’s HSM autofocus motor, so focusing is quiet and generally brisk, and the built-in OS helps steady hand-held shots at longer focal lengths. Compared with heavier pro telezooms, it is notably portable for the range, but the variable f/5-6.3 aperture means it is best used in good light or on bodies with capable high-ISO performance. Optical quality is solid for the class, with the usual expectation that the long end is the most demanding. The 67mm filter thread keeps accessories manageable, and the minimum focus distance of 1.6 m gives a useful close-up capability for larger subjects. On the used market, check autofocus smoothness, OS operation, signs of mount wear, zoom creep, front-element scratches or haze, and any impact damage from tripod or carry use; also confirm the lens has a clean aperture mechanism and no fungus or separation.
