Super photos! As always, tack sharp and correctly exposed. I think you are getting the hang of it 
Thanks for confirming its handholdable. One day… I want to handhold it.
Rental might be an option but that comes with a time frame which I can’t commit. I need to own in…

It's about 1.25 pounds heavier than the 800pf. It's not too bad at all, if you ever tried a 200-400 if I recall it's near the same weight.

Those are great shots. I have to ask as someone who's learning all I can. Why not crank up the iso a little to increase the shutter speed? Not that you needed to but just wondering.

Thank you! Yeah nothing wrong with doing what you suggested I normally keep it around 1/1000 or so when it's perched. Just a habit over the years unless I just forget and have it at 1/3200 or higher which I normally set it when flying. Like I said just a habit to dial it back when perched.
