Thanks. The thoughts behind choosing the 800mm over the 600mm was mostly something like "if it has to be f/11, then at least get it as powerful as I can"
But I definitely understand your choice too. Sometimes it is simply too long or you are too close to your subject. And catching a bird in flight is very difficult (also because of the limited AF-area, I don't know if AF-area is equally limited with the 600mm?).
But still, lots of fun and new possibilities. Ironically I now have longer reach with my fullframe than with my APS-C camera
