The 500 PF is clearly the better lens, but given that it costs exactly 4.5 times as much as the 70-300, I’d say the Fuji holds up pretty well indeed.

I agree, and not only the cost but the weight, flexibility as a zoom, etc., I love my 70-300. I just did some comparisons between the 16-80 that I got as part of the x-h2 kit and, while the 16-80 did not fare too well in any of the comparisons with my existing lenses (27mm, 60mm, etc.), the biggest and most obvious difference was against the 70-300 in their overlapping ranges.
