As usual, my local squirrel is a willing test subject when new equipment arrives.   ;)

Are you sure his willingness to pose results from the excitement of the new gear rather than the food he gets :) :)

The Nikkor 500mm f/5.6 is a very nice lens, though. With or without squirrels.

Thanks, no human-sourced feeding occurred. :)  the willingness was all about the nice cached cones he was peeling. (Feeding wildlife beyond what results from bird feeding is illegal in Alaska.)
While the 500PF for sure is a nice lens, I have had it for quite a wile now, so the test was not specific to that lens.  ;)

Since Daniel is probably still on vacation in Croatia, this little impression from southern Germany will suffice.

This looks rather Switzerland...
