Big hunking piece of glass. Hope it comes with its own motorized tripod.

I,on the other hand, hope it's light enough to hand hold at an air show. And costing less than a luxury car... Rob

Seems like getting a Nikon 400mm f2.8 with a Kenko DG300 Pro x2 (like I currently have) is a smaller and lighter (relative term!) option.

Think you missed cheaper JK? (Also relative term in this case.) Good, long, light and fast lenses don't come cheap.
