Maybe Nikon is trying to boost the price of the older version!

It IS lighter - think about that while sweating up a hill with the previous version & calculate how much per drop you'd pay to cut down on the effort...

No doubt there will also be a lighter weight, super expensive 600/4 soon as Canon has had one for a few years. The old ones may not lose too much value when the new models are so pricey.

I'm about as giddy as one can get.

This means all the guys with 400's and G.A.S will have to dump their crappy old 400's in place of this..... much better one . And they'll be more really great used 400's out there. This is the one lens I want.

John, there is that thing about used prices following new prices upward, that might be a bit of an additional pain.

I'm a very patient man.. Been with the same woman for 9 years. Not a lot in the larger picture, but you'd have to know the actors.

All the items listed as having replacements, DROP.

I give you.... the 70-200 2.8 ! Vignetting my Royal Canadian !

Interesting. It's lighter than the older version. Just like 800mm is lighter than 600mm. I like where Nikon is going with this. I'm sure they soon will replace 600mm with even lighter version and they'll ask 14K for it. If weight doesn't bother you get the current version now because it's less than 10K.

no rumors of a 400mm f5.6 prime (ala canon) for anybody with budgets a fraction of this size huh?

More samples captured with this amazing lens on the D810.











The last 3 are very high res panoramic stitches.

Cheers,
Bernard

A few more recent images shot on the D810 as well. BTW, I just got my replacement foot from RRS last night, it is the same part designed for the 800mm f5.6 E.







Cheers,
Bernard
