502 isn't really aimed at an 800mm lens setup. It's like anything else if you push things beyond what they're designed for you'll hit a wall sooner or later. It's not the heads fault if you push things beyond the limits.

The 608 isn't cheap but it's not 10X the 502 .

Can't comment on the 608, but I agree that staying within 135mm FL is not v. demanding.  Some folk will try using D500 w/800mm, etc....for reach.

My point was, good fluid head will shine whether using WA or tele.
