Thats some steady hands you have Stan 1/160s woooo... I try anything below 1/400s on my 150-500 and I get shake handheld.

Looks like a great lens.

And all this time the experts on here have been telling me @ 600mm you need 1/800th to get a sharp shot
Looks like you have it working well Stan and great focus on the eye

Cheers guys

no one was more surprised than me, its a heavy beast, weighing in at around 3.5kg inc the camera, although of course it does have IS which helps

Very nice image, looks like the new lens is working well for you. I'm quite happy with my 150-500 at those kind of shutter speeds tbh.
