Goldfinch from Scotland on a good bright Winters-day Nikon D500 with the 500mm PF. I wish I had a lens like this for the Sony A1.

The new Sigma 500mm f5.6 seems very similar to the pf

I enjoyed my D850& 500PF combo but I still think the Sony A1 with 200-600 gives a better result. 

Unfortunately, the A1 combo is 500g heavier.

Just a passing observation…..the Sony 100-400 is lighter than the Nikon 500PF, so might be an alternative, to reduce the weight in the hand. And at £3400 for the 500PF, you could have both the Sony zooms for the same total!

I like my Sony 100-400 it is very sharp and has quite a good range and you can get 560mm with the x1.4 extender but for small birds, the 600mm with x1.4 lens gives 840mm and we all agree it is a super lens and with a remarkably reasonable price.
