quatpat: Wow, 3.6kg... My Minolta 400/4.5 + 1.4x converter + A77 body weight around 3kg all together. But then of course I shoot at f6.3 instead of f5.6 at 560mm... just didn't know that 1/3 f-stop weights more than half a kilo! Oh, sorry I forgot that I counted mine with the camera... so the 1/3 f-stop weights more something like 1.2 kg. Too much for me.
Talk about fanboyism, roby...

Hahaha nice one micahmedia... go check out on DxO the good Canon sensors and compare to their equivalent bad Sony sensors. :-)
Btw, my combo has cost around 4000$ all in all, not 13000 Euros. Have fun shooting...

Very nice shot this one! (Actually much better than some of the better placed raptors with a leather band around their feet.) And a good angle of the bird, too.
