Sebboh I am tempted by the 350mm (currently I'm using a 180 Telyt multiplied 2x) but I'm worried by the weight for hand-holding it, and the ring of focus that - I do not remember in which forum I read - would be too long. Can you confirm, beyond your great photos?
i don't find the weight to be any problem for hand-holding, i don't use a tripod (but i am reasonably young). the focus throw is quite long though (350 degrees) and well damped. this makes tracking very difficult at short distances.
