Then I put my 500mm f/5.6 PF on my Z9 and used my 600mm f/4 to. In comparison, the Nikon 200-500mm f/5.6 really did a great job. It's a heavy bugger but so what, of course the Quality was not good enough when it came to Auto-Focusing, just a little sluggish. So then, I put my new TC1.4III converter on it, focus slowed down, but the shots were pretty darned good. A lens that you might want to try is the Tamron 150-600mm g2. Great lens, especially if you send the Camera Body with the Lens and let them Calibrate it for FREE, you pay shipping. My Friend also has the 600mm f/4 Nikon and yes it is a great lens, it should be for the $13,000 that it costs for the both of us. Now, if you are going to be serious, then if I were you and depending on what your intent to use it for, Wildlife and Sports, just spring $3700 and get the 500mm f/5.6PF. It all comes down to what you shoot. If you want, you can PM me and I have a Camera store right here in Michigan and I can get AAA+++ quality gear at a great price break. Plus, the Tamron 70-200mm g2 is a great lens. I like to stick with my Primes because I shoot for Our 4 Major PRO TEAMS and I'am one of the Staff Photogs for my Alma-Mater, University of Michigan. I have a Brand new Tamron g2 150-600mm that I could sell you, but I would want what I paid for it. My Equipment is a part of my life and I take care of it accordingly. If you really want the 200-500 Nikon, trust me when I say that you won't go wrong. Good Luck and if there's anything that I can advise you on, just drop a dime.
