I agree with you David. The difference with the latest versions is not so significant. It's interesting to compare how dramatically the model changed in 22 years.
An unfortunate incident happened yesterday. I was changing the converter, perhaps I didn’t turn the mount to the end, and the battery become dead a while after that.
I took off the lens and put it in my backpack. At home, I discovered that the stabilizer did not park and the lens unit was floating in the lens barrel during my way home. I called the CPS, they reassured me that nothing terrible had happened, but the incident was unpleasant.
I don't own a current version of the 600, but I rented the RF 600 f4 L IS for a trip to Yellowstone end of September / beginning of October. I believe it was the first batch of lenses received by Lensrentals. Lens worked geared and IQ/IS were very good. I am personally holding out for a RF 200-400/200-500 f4 + 1.4x TC with the Version II weight loss program which will order the day it is announced. I sold my EF 200-400 f4 prior to transitioning to R5 more because of weight than the new mount. I like size/weight of my 100-500, but miss the faster aperture, integrated TC and better IQ of the 200-400. Hoping for this lens in late 2022 or early 2023. It was a popular wildlife lens, so I hope Canon will replace.
