Absolutely,
and sometimes there is simply nowhere to climb.
I have 300, 500 and 1000mm (soviet) reflex lenses in my old cameras and
lenses collection. I've had an opportunity to try Sony 300/2.8, Nikkor
500/4, Canon 600/4 IS... sorry, but not my kind of lenses. I think twice
before I take DA*300/4 with me, but compared to those it's lightweight.
So, I still have to get closer...

Well, of course it depends on what you are going to use the lens.
OTOH, one of the best Estonian bird and animal photogs answered the
question about how much he needs extreme focal lengths very simply -
No, I don't need 600 or 800mm, it's heavy to carry and animals are
afraid of such a large "eye" - I'm just learning to get closer.
Great for some things.
No matter what I do, though, if I start climbing the tree, the warbler
will fly away.
-- Graydon, who is rather too large to consider climbing some of those
trees in any case
