Odd request but anyone who has this lens mind measuring it's length with caps on front and back? Not sure if listed specs include caps.

I just recently bought this lens for my new to me R5. I'm quite impressed with it so far. The MFD hasn't been nearly as big of a deal as I expected it to be so far. No great shots yet, but snapped a couple landscape shots as I was leaving the local nature preserve last night that I think turned out well.

I don’t think there’s anyone on this forum that ridiculed this lens more than me, but I’m man enough to admit I was probably wrong to do so. There’s no denying - judging by these images - that it’s a great lens.
It’s just getting my head around the F11 that’s stalling me.

Bought one of these while my EF 500 F4 is getting repaired, had one before and sold it.
Quite happy with these with the RF800 F11 and R6mk2

You need to shift out of that old paradigm... advances in lens, sensor, and post-processing technologies have rendered it moot for the way the majority of images are viewed nowadays.

I just picked one up on the B/S board & looking forward to even closer moon shots then with my 600 on the R100

Question: Will you keep both the 600 f11 and the 800 f11? I'm thinking about adding the 600mm f11 to my kayak kit...

I'll probably keep both, but there is one for sale on the B/S forum, and it's very reasonable. https://www.fredmiranda.com/forum/topic/1854135

This was mostly a test, shot from indoor through the at least dual layer glass. This crop basically took the middle 1/9th of the sensor.

entertaining the idea of getting the 800mm. I wonder if this is better or worse compared to canon EF 400mm f5.6L + 1.4 or 2.0 TC?
I currently have the 400mm f5.6 EF, and it's been with me since i owned the first canon camera, and i love it.
After looking at the images posted here, i don't think the 800mm f11 would out-perform the 400mm f5.6 + TC.

Size+weight would be better with the RF. Nevertheless it's a good idea, with the IBIS at 2x TC the 400/5.6L could make a nice stabilized 800/11.
