DC.watch posted a set of new images of the new Sony 200-600mm and 600mm lenses. The image on top caught my attention. You see the new 200-600mm size compared with the 100-400mm lens when fully extended. It’s hard to choose between the two lenses because:

The 100-400mm lens should be sharper, is a tiny bit faster and it’s definitely a lot shorter and easier to carry around
The 200-600mm lens has way more tele reach, no extending zoom and it’s cheaper than the GM

And here are a few more images:

600mm f/4.0 on the Sony A9

200-600mm FE on the Sony A7III

And here is the “naked” 600mm f/4.0 FE lens:
