The thing about life JoJu, is we are all different.
I know from the amount of bird shooting I do, that M3/4rds wouldn't cut it for me, F2.8 or not, you say that the lens is $10,000? You won't find many S/H then.
FF is what I like shooting best if I can get close enough, Apsc if I need to get even closer, the noise difference is still quite a lot I still think it's around a stop and a half, and the images are sharper and cleaner.
So ML still remains something I can't use for birding, as you say you can wait several hours for a shot and camera has to be on and ready, battery life is key, I think I've only run down a battery a couple of time in a few years.
I got my first birding shot of an egret yesterday down at the river, so that cheered me a little, nothing great but I had put it up on Flickr. Tamron@600mm.
