So both are worth to buy? I must confess I can't afford neither, nor any other 
more
expensive lens at the moment. Still I would like to have them as I love to photo
wildlife. Therefore I bought a 300/4.5 to get more close to animals instead of 
using
the 200/4 (still using it however, but to other than wildlife). I now find the
300/4.5 too short a focal length and I guess adding a Zuiko 1.4x TC and get 
420/6.3
will not be enough. So, the thing is to get the 600/6.5 first as they are much 
more
common than the 1000/11.

Arghh! Money needed!

Folks, I WILL accept any donations!
