We now have all the information on the 150-600mm F5.0-6.3. Compared to the Sigma 150-600mm F5-6.3 DG DN, which is rumored to be the base model, the specifications such as lens configuration, number of aperture blades, and filter size are the same, but the OM version has the same minimum shooting distance. It is 2cm shorter and weighs 35g lighter. Although the overall length and maximum diameter are slightly different, it seems safe to say that they are almost the same. The price is likely to be considerably higher than the base lens, but synchro IS support is a big deal.
