They all look sharp. The D810 bokeh looks the best. The Canon, not so much.

Is this the most recent 500/4L IS II?

No, version 1. I would be terribly surprised if it was as sharp as the version 2!

Not according to Nikon's reference for the TC, 300mm x 1.7x is 510mm in my books
Although some people say it is an 1.67x TC so opinions do vary

The 7D2 and D7200 with a TC are rather comparable- which is a testament to Nikon's efforts with regard both to their TC and to their Phase-Fresnal technology.

As for the bokeh- they're all noisy, though the D810 is understandably a bit less noisy due to more inherent focus isolation. Shooting at f/5.6 would have made it more comparable with the crop sensors but it's not a big deal as the result is as expected.

Thanks for the comparison!
