I do not think you need to worry about delivering the goods! This lens is magnificent! The only significant difference between this one and the MkII is weight. Every other improvement is "slight" at best.

Thank you, I've read that and now that it can be found at pretty inviting prices, it was too good to pass up. Was undecided between this and an used 600 F4 IS, but at the end the more "reasonable" package and potential hand-holdability (at least for short periods) of the 500 made me prefer this one at the end :-)

Was it active at the dam this year? I didn't make it to the dam this year.

I only made it up once and there was less activity and fewer eagles than normal while I was there.
