Re: Is the XF 150-600 overpriced

Jerry and others, I know this is a subjective question based on which camera body etc, but did you notice faster continuous focus acquisition or subject stickiness and correct focus throughout a continuous burst of photos when you changed to the XF150-600 from XF100-400. I feel the XF100-400 loses focus throughout a burst shoot when panning sometimes. I'm intrigued by the XF150-600 for photographing very fast military jets flying low in valleys at 500 mph. I've stuck with the XF100-400 up to now as it's perhaps a slightly brighter aperture at given focal length, but I'm considering the longer newer lens.
