Unless I do some serious track/sporting event photos, I dont think I will ever need a glass like that.
Birds and wildlife. I'm just blocks from a wildlife refuge and minutes from the Rocky Mountains.

I'm really just getting started with the birds and just bought the 400mm. If I've taken between 1000 and 2000 images with it by year end, then I'll start budgeting for a 600 mm Big Bertha style lens. Those are urber expensive. Even a used Sigma is like 3-grand. I can afford it, but I don't want to spend money buying something that expensive and just have it sitting in the closet.
