I have had a new 500 pf for about a week now. It being lighter than my 200-500 I am having a little trouble with technique and steadyness. I am making progress in that area and I am excited about the lens because it usually gives me super sharp images, better ratio all the time. I have heard that the lesser weight of the lens was a concern for some, I was not ready for the effect it had with me. I wasn't sure why I was getting many super sharp images and many not so much, but have since decided it is all my technique, it seems to me that the heavier telephoto lens has enough bulk and weight that it dampens the shutter and keeps the shake down, especially while resting it in something. Also I am shooting with a D850 which amplifies those errors over lower pixil cameras. The lighter weight is what I wanted and it is nice.
