    Isaac is right. You should have a backup support. I use the tether kit from blackrapid http://www.blackrapid.com/products/tether-kit

    The ones taken with the 1D look sharper to my eyes

    And canon vs tamron 560mm vs 600mm @ f8 http://www.the-digital-picture.com/Reviews/ISO-12233-Sample-Crops.aspx?Lens=972&Camera=453&Sample=0&FLI=5&API=2&LensComp=929&CameraComp=453&SampleComp=0&FLIComp=5&APIComp=2 Tamron looks better in center. Hmm

    What about the weight? What was the first impact? Easily hand-holdable?

    The difference wide-open is notorious (in favour of the sigma). I also like the bokeh. Only problem is the weight. I like to walk around and I don't like to take a tripod with me unless if I'm going to stay in a hide or to a cliff for sea birds.. I wonder if I can carry it for a few hours...

    That's true. But I will barely be able to afford the Sports version (if I decide) so I won't get another body. My wife would throw my things outside hehe. So 840mm is the best I can wish for :)

    I sure do hope so. being able to have AF @840mm on a full frame camera would be something amazing! :)

    2 lenses. One heavier(better) and the other lighter? I'll be damned! :)

    and a larger front element and more elements including 2 Fluorite ones.. It looks liked Sigma picked theTamron and improved it... time will tell. It's only good news for us.
