Sounds like they were having trouble sourcing lenses for whatever reason. The Nikon 17-28/2.8 profile will also become available in the same March update.

In 2018, DXO split lens test hardware part of the company [DXOMark] off from the software [PhotoLab/NIK] part of the company. Since then, they have really fallen behind on keeping up with lens corrections. Which is a shame because DXO's lens corrections, when available, are superb.

Still not available, I missed some fine print in DXO's email haha:
"This latest round of updates is available immediately for users of DxO FilmPack, DxO ViewPoint, and Nik Perspective Efex as part of the Nik Collection. The DxO Optics Modules for DxO PhotoLab and DxO PureRAW will be available very shortly."
This has got to the the most labored release I've seen from them - normally they are actually very good at getting these profiles out.

These are terrific.
The Z 100-400 f/4.5-5.6 S is a pretty astounding optic. It can literally go from near-macro (.76x), to 800mm (w/ a 2x TC), and achieve these kinds of results all across the spectrum ... all the while being light and easy to deploy.

Yes it's pretty amazing and nice and easy to carry even in addition to a big lens by putting it in a belt system (what I normally do) or whatever way you like. Thanks!!

Sure, I would have loved to use a 600mm f4 for this, but this lens is a really nice compromise when travelling with its size and versatility. These were taken without a teleconverter on a Z7 (i), with some cropping as needed. I was at ho'okipa beach park on Maui for about 30 min. Could have stayed there for hours but the family was waiting! I'm on the road so only quick edits for now and sorry for the photo dump....I couldn't decide
