Fantastic wildlife lens. Even handheld on an R5C without IBIS, the images are sharp at 500mm. I do wish it reached 600mm, but the 1.4x teleconverter works great, and with good lighting it still delivers super-sharp results. Fast autofocus, strong stabilization, and surprisingly lightweight. Excellent for bird photography.

Great reach, much lighter than my 150-600mm Sigma, fast autofocus, very sharp pictures. Only complaint is the Tripod collar doesn't completely lock down, it gives a little. A bit too pricey, also.
