FS: Canon mount Sigma 120-300 2.8 lens with matched 1.4x and 2x extenders

[paul engstrom]

SOLD


This lens completely changed my opinion of Sigma. The build quality is very, very good on this lens (reflected by relatively high cost of the lens for a Sigma product).
Made in Japan.

$2400 for the 120-300 and the 1.4x and the 2x extenders.

The extenders have sold
\
Only the 12-300 lens is available now for price of $1950

Awesome glass. Extremely Sharp(!)
Fixed 2.8 aperture with very smooth and nicely dampened focus and zoom rings.
Takes the included matched 1.4x and 2x extenders very well - converting it to a still sharp (and still fast!) 170-420 f.4 or 240-600 f.5.6 lens.

Comes with great nylon cases for all three lenses, plus a hood and removable lens support (but you don't really want to remove it - pretty big lens here).

In excellent condition. I am the original purchaser.

Reason for sale: I will be switching over to Nikon and have begun selling my Canon glass.
Pictures to follow.

Regards,
Paul

120 - 600mm of extremely sharp glass

Had this on the set of Arctic Air - crew was impressed with sharpness of the glass. I'd keep it if I were still in Canon...but alas.

Hi Paul,

Does it work with Epic with Canon mount well?

 

[paul engstrom]

Good question! I don't know. I'm sure it fits -- its a normal Canon mount. And I would think that the Epic can control the iris on it. Question would be whether they've mapped out the focusing on it. I'll try and get that figured out for you.

 

[paul engstrom]

Bump -- Still waiting to hear from Jarred if this particular lens has been mapped yet.

Looks like Kaku Ito confirmed the 120-300 works with the RED Canon Mount -- I copied this from the 'everything about RED Canon mount' thread:

Jarred, can you please update the list of Sigma lenses support now?

We tested with 120-300mm F2.8 and 500mm F4.5 and they work great.

Jarred mentioned that my comment about it is working does not mean officially supporting but I had no problem using with manual. I'd say the auto focus is probably not optimized without official support.

 

[paul engstrom]

Thanks for the clarification!

[paul engstrom]

Yup, still have it.

Not the lens combination for everyone, but perfect for someone needing relatively lightweight ability to capture wildlife, 2nd unit, etc.

 

[paul engstrom]

The 1.4x and 2x extenders have been sold.

Just the Sigma 120-300 2.8 Canon mount Lens is available now.

Price is $1950.

 

[paul engstrom]

Bump.

120-300 asking $1950

 

[paul engstrom]

Perfect lens for Scarlet/Epic shooters that shoot wildlife. Relatively compact for fast long lens and great optics.
