Get the 600 and a 1.4x or 2x tele convertor :)
What are you photographing ?
 
If you're really stuck you could try finding photo agencies that handle surfing shots and ask them. The 1200 (often with 2, 2x converters:eek: :eek: ) is a common tool of the trade.
 
Any more and the weight would upset the Earth's orbit around the Sun!
 
Don't forget you need to deposit the full value of whatever you're renting - ouch!
 
ah it's blatently going be a Golden eagle or something :p

Ps. I like near you, invite me over :eek:
 
It's a kwyjibo.

(Little nod to the Simpsons there :D)

LOL i just called Calumet to find out how much rental of a 600MM L lens would be !

I have just picked myself up off the floor and have stopped laughing/crying ! lol

Lens is £71.50 a day plus insurance and VAT, so roughly 100 quid for a days hire, now copmes the crunch ! lol Deposit is £5-6000 paid up front, and i have to collect from them in person ! LOL Damn i dont think i can quite stretch to that ! ;) LOL
