this lens is not really intended for BIF
The 500/5.6 PF on D500 has been one of the most popular rigs for BIF. The 800mm on a fullframe will give essentially that same field of view. So for me the Z 800 is going to be perfect for BIF and many will enjoy handholding it, and for those who find that too much weight they'll enjoy it on a gimbal'd tripod, or use a monopod. After this lens comes out you will see some amazing BIF captures here on FM by the resident experts.
