Re: 500mm vs 600mm?

Thanks for the quick reply!

I know the 300mm f2.8 is a great lens, but I'm not really interested in it. I know I'd never use it at 300mm, so why not just get the 600 that I want.

Anyway, appreciate your insights. Yes, I will pair it with a nice tripod & gimbal head. I'll check out the RRS options. I have one of their very small ball heads for my smaller tripod and love it - it supports a lot more than the spec'd max weight.
