    It's a tremendously interesting lens, it took me a while to even think if it is something I would even use. And after some shooting, I could definitely use it. But I have a hard time justifying 10k...

    Get a 500mm f/4 IS or 600mm f/4 IS first gen.

    I love my 500mm to bits, and I'm not sorry for skipping the weight of the 600mm. Although I think I will still get one because I would still find it...

    Not to take away from what you said, but the 5Ds could also do 1.6 crop modes. Which is a bit of a misnomer because it doesn't really crop anything and just basically a guide for you to crop in post,...

    I'll take a look at my 500mm f/4 IS tomorrow morning.

    I'm very glad I purchased it. And while I often wish for a 600mm f/4 IS, I don't miss the nearly 12lbs it weighs! My hands are really sore...

    Yeah, that's pretty cool. Personally having used the 1Dx III, I would spring for that. I have a 1Dx and it is fine body, but it is a far cry from the Mark-III. Night and day the difference. And they...

    Well at least you still have your gear, I also had a phase of not doing any birding. But I find that I never dropped the hobby completely even if I took a hiatus. Do you have a site or a flikr page...

    Good to know, all my lenses get used regularly. So knock on wood that won't happen to me. LOL.

    I agree with you 100%, the 600mm f/4 IS II is a fantastic lens. Very versatile and still very modern. If you are into computers at all reminds me of some of Nvidia's Titan version of their graphics...
  23. RF 800mm and 1200mm lenses, do they make sense?

    The 800mm doesn't make a lot of sense to own in my honest opinion. It is much more expensive than a 600mm f/4 and extender and less sharp. If you compare it to the EF 800mm f/5.6, the EF version is...

    Well I guess there is a new firmware that allows you to shoot 195fps in RAW on the R3.
