Well done Ari. I do own the competition lens as you speak of, the Nikon 600mm VR II. If I wasn't already a Nikon shooter before I got into wildlife photography, Canon would have been the clear choice for me right off the bat. I wasn't going to change systems, though, because Nikon has done so well for me in my storm photography (the total opposite end, ultra wide angle). I think Nikon has a slight edge over Canon in the ultra-wide optics, but that's a discussion for the Canon/Nikon boards. Anyway, the 3 pounds of weight difference is huge.

you are right, I also wish Canon made better wide lenses.

I completely DISAGREE. Just the other day, I bought some expensive pots and pans. And now, I'm a master chef. That being the case, I went to Sears and purchased their most expensive tool set. And now? I could be a mechanic for Ferrari if I wanted to. Well, maybe not Ferrari but certainly Lexus or something. Then............ I woke up.

Another masterful set, Ari. I always appreciate the insight that comes from your blog (I have your ebook, and find it very useful). But, in addition to technical prowess, and ensuring one has the right equipment for the image, perhaps an even more important skill set for wildlife photography that receives very little formal attention is wildlife knowledge. Where and when to look for subjects, how to approach the subject, and knowing the biology of the subject are areas in which many of us would benefit from your (and others') experience.
