I shot with a Sigma 150-600 C on a X-T3 with Fringer Canon EF to Fuji X adapter. The lens focus fast and tracks well, even in low light. When a subject is closing directly toward you, At about 20 feet, the lens cant focus fast enough. For a static subject up close it dose just fine and can track a subject up close moving from side to side.

I tired out a pre-production Fuji 150-600 on a pre-production X-H2s at a show and found it to struggle to focus in low light requiring me to lift my finger and start focusing over about 1/2 the time. Otherwise AF and tracking was fast and snappy. The Fuji has better build quality and as it's internal zooming and focusing it stays balanced. The Fuji is also WR while the Sigma is not.

i think comparing the XF 150-600 to the sigma 150-600 Sport would be more fair? the Sport version is sharper at 600mm. i've personally had the S and the C and many tests do show this to be true. then my questions are which one is faster focus and sharper at 600mm?
