Well I'm trying to get my hands on two lenses and having no luck at all.

The Sigma 150-500mm has been promised so many times, but we are still waiting for it in a Nikon mount.

Then the new Nikon 24-70mm AFS is like hens teeth, just cannot find anyone with it ACTUALLY in stock.

Doesn't it annoy others when websites say they have stock and they are telling porkies?

Absolutely! It is a pet hate of mine and I am sure many others. Means you have to ring around all the suppliers which somewhat defeats the whole object of the web!

I saw a Nikon fit Sigma 150-500mm in the shop window of London Camera Exchange Bath on Saturday :)

Check these guys for stock as it is a very good price:

Look at the very bottom - the Canon is showing as in stock, not so the Nikon!! :mad:

Sorry, did not spot that bit. I guess that with a new lens it is brought out in Canon first as they have the biggest market share and so the biggest number of potential customers. Nikon will be next, just be glad you are not waiting for a mount for another manufacturer.

No you didn't - the shop confirmed it was a 170-500mm :rolleyes:

Yes they also had a 170-500mm in the window. They normally sell for £500.

The price was about £750 and it looked very much like the 50-500mm.
I was very tempted to go in and try it out until I noticed it was a Nikon fit.

Checking the Sigma website the 150-500mm looks a bit different so I think they must of written out the label incorrectly. I did look at the label twice because I thought it was a 50-500mm.

Sorry to get you excited for no reason. :rolleyes:
