Nuclear Warhead or Insanely Long & Fast Telephoto Zoom Lens

I’ve always turned up my nose at Sigma Lenses, I guess you can call me a Nikon Snob. But Sigma keeps putting out these really Exotic Lenses that even the hardcore Nikon or Canon Fanboy can’t ignore.

200-500mm f2.8!!!

And I’m guessing it is about a couple grand cheaper than a Nikon or Canon equivalent (if they even have something like this).

Update:

“The lens (which is cosmetically reminiscent of a piece of military hardware) weighs nearly 16kg and uses a dedicated Li-ion battery to provide power for focusing and zooming. It will be available in Sigma, Canon and Nikon mounts”

It’s so big it needs a separate power source to run.
