Really enjoying the images on this thread. It's been great to see some of the capabilities of the 150-600 in terms of images captured.
Tony, did you manage to find a workaround for carrying it given how short that tripod foot is? Curious on your thoughts on whether the optical performance at 600mm made the extra physical weight and ergonomics worth wrestling with out in the field vs. the 100-400.

I might have some answers to all of those in a month or so.
- The strap eyelets are different and larger, so one can't use the Peak Design anchor links.
- The tripod mount foot should be twice as long, as many like to carry the lens with their hand around it, but it is too short.
- The zoom lens lock is a great idea, but the switch is too small and very finicky to use.

Brian, I found a couple of longer anchor links that fit on the lens.
The 150-600 is definitely more cumbersome and gives me some great images, but I am finding too many instances where focus is off and I can't pinpoint why.
