Well it's no more expensive than your A1 for example.Nice
Bit too steep for me that one, will be intesting to see what it's like with the 2x TC though as you say, a 1700g 600mm f5.6 sounds great. I'm sure I read something a while back about new Sony TC's but not heard anything since, it owuld be nice if we could finally get a 2x TC that's useable.
It's not cheap but with some discounts and such I think it's possible to get one in the realms of affordability (for me).
The lens looks super sharp which is why I am hoping it'll hold up even with the current 2x TC. Only time will tell.
My alternative was buying Nikon Z8 + 400mm f4.5. the lens is lighter but the body is heavier.
A1 can be had for £500-ish more than Z8 at the moment (the difference might be larger later on) so it's not as massive a difference as release prices.
I was expecting £10k-ish 2-2.5kg behemoth of a lens. So in comparison I'm pretty pleased with what was released. It's certainly been enough to make me hold the trigger on Nikon.
