Sigma Announcement: 150-600 mm f/5-6.3 DG OS HSM

Hi all,

Just found this announcement here - same zoom range as the Tamron.

http://www.optyczne.pl/7378-news-Sigma_ ... S_HSM.html

Weighs in at 2860 g, whereas the Tamron stays just a little below 2 kg.

Re: Grosseto (LIRS) - 2014

Hi all,

I'm staying close to Grosseto airport this week.
Today (Monday) so far no military flying activity between 8:00 and 13:30 local.

Does anyone know how much to expect for the rest of the week?
When are typical flying times in the morning and during the afternoon?
