But is it better at 400mm than the 150-600C @ 400mm. Given you can often get the 600mm for around $800-900, IMO it's a much better buy unless you really can't handle the extra weight.
Agreed. I have the 150-600C and can't see someone owning both unless the 100-400 is superior optically. I purchased my 150-600 new for about $800 where the price on the 100-400 won't be coming down for a little while most likely. I would like to see how it compares at the same distance.

Sure, I was more commenting on the progression of spend $500 get 70-300, spend $800 get 100-400, spend $1000 get 150-600 (retail pricing), and that quality isn't going to be a factor, just how much reach you need versus how much you're willing to spend .
The 150-600 has been out for long enough now that paying retail is quite foolish. You can get the 150-600 price for nearly the same cost as the new 100-400.
