      Ooo I always wanted to try the 800mm, but never got the chance! - the 600mm is a very special lens and even though it's a prime and 600mm it's incredibly versatile for highly detailed shots, as well as far reaching views etc

    Lovely lens. Are you doing the review on the 200 f/2?

      Thanks for the comment, a review for the 200 f/2 is recorded. I've just got to edit it and then it'll be on the channel

    I still own this beast of a lens and use it on my D5 and occasionally on my D850.
    I use it for birding after I stopped with sports photography (soccer), I don't think I'll sell this lens.
    Thank you for sharing this video.

      No worries, glad your still enjoying your lens. Unfortunately, mine doe st get to see the light of day often due to switching over to the Leica M system.
      But it's a cracking lens !!

      Hi , like to know what size UV filter can go over the front element please 🙏

    • @SebastianOakley
      @SebastianOakley  Před měsícem

      There are no filter threads to put filters on the front unfortunately. But I believe the internal drop out filter is a 52mm

      Thank you, I really appreciate that, funnily enough we don't hear prais that often so thank you :)

    I thought it was equally interesting that you used a D800 over a D3/D4. You must have gotten some questions about that, I'm sure.
    I don't know why anyone would criticize the lens. Most photographers would just assume that you would have one, given what you shoot. It's just logical!

    • @SebastianOakley
      @SebastianOakley  Před 4 měsíci +4

      It was a world full of 400mm lenses, and I had the biggest lol...
      I chose the D800 over the D4 at the time due to the higher megapixels, which clients and advertising loved, so I suck with it!

    as an MFT fan when I see this I feel like a little girl who's just seen a BBC for the first time 😢 and it has a hood on its hood 😮

      @SebastianOakley  Před 4 měsíci +1

      Don't be shy, it's fine haha. Now I use a lot of Leica gear I can appreciate the compactness of MFT and their lenses... The weight of this lens strapped to a D800 on a monopod, changing horses around... Wasn't a fun experience haha

      It's an incredible lens, how do you find it with the Z adapter?
