Tamron easier to hand hold?  Much difference in imagae quality between the two lenses? Awesome photos. thanks

The Canon 6DII is not the Nikon D500.  However, it is not bad.  Would a 1.4 or 2x teleconverter be best? Thanks. MB

I know this is complete heresy to bring Canon into the picture in this section of the form. Please let me know if this is out of bounds.  I have a Canon 6D Mark 2 which I have not used very much.  ...

You make a very compelling argument.  Razor-sharp.  1.66  pounds.  This are photos like mine (except yours are better).  I have to give this some thought.  Thanks for sharing. MB

This helps a lot!!  I don't photograph snakes.  If I did I would purchase the longest telephoto money could buy. Many thanks. MB

Will never, ever get rid of 200-500.  Out of my cold, dying hands.  I love it. Budget would be in 1400 or under range.  Nikon 500 pf is out of range.  Have to look at 300pf with extender.  I may ...

I have a 70-300 now and don't find the 300 gives me adequate reach. I was thinking 100-400 and 1.25 extender. Thanks MB

I have the Nikon D500 and 200-500 which I really like. However, I have to use a tripod and gimbal with the 200-500 and I am looking to keep it and perhaps get another lens to complement it. Image ...

Good place to purchase? I noticed B&H is out right now. Thanks MB

Very helpful.  About to pull the trigger. Any other crop sensor Nikon bodies to consider?  Nikon mirrorless bodies? Is there a teleconverter anyone recommends or too much of an assault on image ...

Thanks-very helpful. What is your next camera going to be? mb

If you used the 200-500 with a lighter camera, like an older D5500 model, the lightweight of the D5500 might be a disadvantage?  This is just an example. The lower resolution does not bother ...

Is the D500 and 200-500 well balanced? Thanks MB

General question and maybe too vague. How hand-holdable are a Nikon D500 and a Nikor 200-500? I like to take photos of birds, loons, etc. Thank you. MB

I thought the Canon EF 100-400mm F4.5-5.6L IS II USM was selling for about 1779.99 at B&H. Now it is $2,199.00. Been thinking about this for months.  Have bee one click away from buying. Now the ...

I shoot a variety of things.  Mainly waterfowl this is sitting.  I am at peace with this now.  I have wanted that lens for quite sometime.  I agree, when you need something, buy it or wait.  Be ...

I actually don't plan to switch to a Canon mirrorless anytime soon. MB
