Yes, I have the Sigma 500/4.5, which is a VERY nice lens (you can have the
lens CAP for $500). It's "small" for a 500 - just about the same size as
the Zuiko 250/2 (the cases are almost identical). They made an 800 in OM
as well, but I've only ever heard of one known specimen. As for 300's, I
don't know anything at all about the Sigma 300, but I'm sure it's worth the
$500 price. The green Tamron 300/2.8 is so good, we'd never consider using
anything else for our 300.
