Lovely shot, Huss
🙂
But it's a myth small body can't take big lens.

However, photographer must change technique.......not a given....and hold by the lens, not the body.
This I handhold all the time:
300/2.8 ais by
unoh7, label is wrong

No Leica Lens I prefer....
Bo Peep by
unoh7, Nikkor 300/2.8 EDIF
The only 300 I've ever liked, which saved Nikon amoung the 80s press photographers, when Canon was getting so strong.
I never wanted a heavier body, that's for sure.

This thing was so expensive when new, few private individuals bought them. The newspaper or magazine bought one, and you checked it out. So it is not really that well known. First "ED" lens I think. Later they made the 180/2.8 ED which is a legend, but while it's really sharp, bokeh is crap, like so many Nikon SLR lenses. However, the 500/4 P is equally dreamy and sharp, and is also built like a tank. Both are lighter than any modern AF version, and just as good when you hit the focus.

I'd shoot them both on M10 with EVF in a second, with care, of course

They say the Lag/blackout is way better shooting LV or with EVF than 240 and EVF much improved too.
