Re: Canon 200-800mm vs the just announced Sony 400-800mm
If I had the 200-600 I would be tempted to switch to the 400-800 as a majority in my catch is at 800mm. But as I have the 200-800, I would not switch to the 400-800 (hypothetical) because much of the rest of my images with the 200-800 is at 200 some closer to 300. For my often opportunistic freehand shooting the 4x zoom is a great tool. The extra half kg of weight, no thanks! The 200-800 is massive enough during our three months of continuous daylight.
I cant avoid to smile when reading all the ooohs and aawhs around the 400-800 zoom range, compared to the poop the 420-700mm and 600-1000mm gets thrown its way, the 100-500 with 1.4x or 2x. Yes, I do understand it as it is such a great lens by itself, the 100-500. Oh well, its so much far more important that I cant comprehend these days.
