That\'s a great find, Stu.....perhaps the first time we see the lens cross section or a cutout. Looks like it has 24-25 elements (out of which two larger ones could be fluorite, thus lighter a bit) + 4 elements in the TC. (Nikkor 200-400 has 24 elements, but no fluorite).
Hi Peter, I\'ve got the 500 ii in my grubby paws It is amazingly hand holdable. It\'s going to be a steep learning curve using it out in the field tomorrow morning. I\'m going to start hand holding and then try the monopod.
