It's getting rave reviews and I've seen lots of great shots taken with it. The difference between 400mm and 600mm is huge when it comes to birds.

The problem is that im that im shooting racing cars on track. Im branch out from relatively close GRC stuff to trophy trucks and TUSC. I worked the Red bull Frozen Rush event and I was really limited by my lenses. So I need a really long and very high quality lens thats capable of dealing with the way I beat things up.
