Richard,

As far as hand holding a 500mm CAT is concerned, yes, you can hand hold, but
you need to give yourself the best chance you can by:
* Bracing your body as best you can
* Use fast film
* Shoot in bright light
* A flash can help if you can get it close to the subject
I recently hand held a bunch of shots with a 600mm cat; see here:
