I own both and use the 500 WAY more than the 600. My main use is bird photography and I find the 500 to be easier to use in the field and much easier to travel with. Since I am not as tied to the tripod I find I miss many fewer shots with the 500. To me this would be an easy choice.

That was my issue with the 600mm.  The 500 ll is so much easier to carry and so is the DO ll.... although 600mm/840 is very nice.
