I just bought a 500/4L mark i. Reasons are:
I can only afford $3000-ish CAD.
It's lighter than 600/4. Don't feel much difference between 500 and 600.
It's same price as 100-500, but 1 and 2/3 stops brighter. I prefer under 1600 ISO, the brighter aperture will help on this. If I buy 100-500, I'll very often go 6400 even at day time, especially if I put any extender in behind.
And I have a lightweight tripod.
Last, I found a mint copy at low price. It said excellent condition in the ad, but I checked the ad photos, couldn't find any flaws on exterior. When you found a bargain, it will help for the decision.
Enjoy! - even the mark 1 a great lens! Sharp wide open without any teleconverter I found and still sharp at f/7.1 with a 1.4X TC at 700mm. My experience matches this old review here:https://www.juzaphoto.com/article.php?l=it&t=canon_500_f4ii_review
that is a click-bait link.
??? How
Shows the mark1 in these tests performing as the mark2 wide open with TC's - and stopped down very competitive. Matches also my experience.
i appreciate your comment about the lens but when you click on the link, many things come up and ask you to accept cookies...and god knows what else.

That's standard fare these days, especially since such notices are required now on many places.
