Ideal for shooting wildlife and birding. :)

do they have for camera bodies as well?

I'm interested as well.

I use one for my 500 f4 IS to protect its finish when hand holding. Workmanship is very good. The neoprene material is elastic and has a nice feel to it (much better than the bare lens finish). I highly recommend it when you use your glass in rough situations.

I ordered mine online from http://www.naturescapes.net/store/home.php and had it shipped to Manila, arriving less than a week after ordering.

Here's how it looks on the 500 f4:

Lol, Carlo... that's actually the good guy among my birding lenses.

Here's the real bad guy - Sigmonster + 16x TCs. The camera works at 12,800 mm f/91, but only for fun shots. In real life, I only use a 2x or 2.8x TCs....:Grin:

Lol... the DG Sigmonster is currently quoted at B&H at USD 6.2K, though as a first adopter I got it from Sigma Japan (thru JT PHoto) at a better price. The 500 f4 IS is USD 5.5K at B&H... got mine at a higher cost at SG because I want to test the copy first before committing purchase.

My bird galleries are in the link below my sig....:Grin:

Romy

what the..?

do you photograph birds with that or blow them up?

Wooow! How many birds can you shoot with that with just one bullet? :D

Hahaha you know what they say, Chicks dig big lenses :Grin:
