Can't. Nikon doesn't make a 400mm in the $1200 price bracket for Jr. The 500 is still a little large for him to shoot all day with yet.
Plus the amount of cash lost wouldn't make up for the near negligible gains.
If it wasn't a loss I'd love to try the D500 with a 500mm F4 through.

Just get Jr a 150-600 G2, easy... :1219:

Best thing about that G2, you can get it in an F mount :barbershop_quartet_member:

Excellent photo. I really like the detail in the fur. It looks very painterly. I wish that I could get my dogs to stand still long enough for me to take a decent photo.

My dad the one who took the photo most likely used a treat to keep our dog sitting still

Thank you.

Luna seems to have taken to the camera. As Jr. has eluded to I think it's the treats she really likes. In order to get her to look up and to the left I had placed the house phone on a shelf and dialled it with my mobile. When she looked I shot.
