Brilliant comparison review. Many thanks indeed for taking the time to do this. This shows just how good the D850 is even few years down the track. Truly one of the best ever DSLRs. It is also really interesting how canon's 100-500 fares so well against that 500. I do wonder what happened to the compact 600mm canon prime with DO that we were all teased with a few years ago.

That would be the RF 600mm f11 IS STM with the gapless DO front group.  I had one until I bought the RF 100-500mm. But the 600 f11 is still a very good lens and remarkable value for money.

There is also an 800mm f11 also with DO front group.
