Agreed. No buyer remorse here when it is a perfect copy and performs as expected.

Many beautiful images in this thread. I am seriously interested in the 800mm but I am concerned that I am buying a lens released 5 years ago at a jaw dropping $16.5K.
What are you concerned about? Should not the IQ of the optics Nikon super telephotos (all versions) are fantastic. Should not be a concern about new type of glass as nothing has been introduced since FL and these incorporate FL. Should not be weight reduction unless one wants to wait for a 100% carbon fiber tube.
My wife explained to me years ago that for somethings Want and Need were the same.
Go for it, I do not know of anyone that has a 800mm that suffers from buyer's remorse.
