I think the sanest way would probably have been the new 500/4. And I almost had decided to go for that one. But salesperson turned out to be a great bird photographer and also a very skilled birder. And he, of course, had the new 600/4ii. And after having showed me some spectacular photos with marvelous bokeh, combined with some other highly qualified salestalk - I had nowhere to go but down the 600-route.Yes - anticipation is great right now! Also a bit curious. Will mrs recreationalbirder notice the difference between a 500/4i and a 600/4ii and start asking questions? And does mrs recreationalbirder know her way into the pricerunner sites? Lets hope not.</blockquote>
