Its probably the cheapest Nikon lens between the Sigma 150-600mm and the Nikon 200-500, between that there is a whole lotta nothing for Nikon shooters, an amazing 400mm with tele but its more expensive and then this beauty of a 500. I think Canon and even Sony have much better selection but this prime is super sharp, even rivals my 105mm 1.4 and 105mm 2.8 macros (and both are formidable in their own right). That reminds me to post some macro shots sometime near spring hehe

What I've been addicted to for the last couple years two crops (the portrait of the coopers and the rabbit eye shot) but everything else is original, unedited (I don't edit my images just prefer to be in the field rather than editing behind the screen). ...
Beautiful body of work ...

I use the Nikon D850 with the Nikon 500pf (used to use a sigma 150-600 but it jammed last summer and they never honoured warranty a real piece of cake )
Pack light. Go big.

Not a Nikon expert so I had to looked up the AF-S NIKKOR 500mm f/5.6E PF ED VR. Seems to be the perfect light travel / handheld lens for wildlife at 236 mm x 1451.5 g ... a little out of my price range and I'm not a dedicated birder / wildlife photographe...
Thank you so much...I got so lucky with the Bohemian Waxwings

I'm coming back from my local park that day, horrible day, I think I spotted only 1 cardinal lol and I look towards a tree in the neighborhood that I call the "lucky tree" and there are about 40-60 waxwings just relaxing in it, first, I've only seen waxwi...
Outstanding!
