That 500mm PF sure is a popular lens and certainly seems highly compatible for the Z9. I would imagine the price is a significant factor. I'll be curious to see how many shell out the $14k for the 400 f2.8 with built in TC when it comes out.

A pair of Barn Owls roosting in a palm tree way up high. I don't get to see many owls and to have two together like this and also to have them look at me for the shot is a highlight for me.

Z9 + 500 f5.6 PF + 1.4x TCIII, 1/250s f/10.0 at 700.0mm iso3200. Handheld.

Your final images with this combo Geoff?
Apart from the handling/AF, how do you feel the image quality compares between the Z9/500pf and A1/600gm?

Yes

In regards to the sensors...close enough not to matter to me.

In regards to the lenses...600GM is better (as I'd expect/hope). I shot ~2500 images with each combo yesterday in cloudy and then light filtered sunny. You can tell the difference when looking at a 600GM shot over a 500PF shot although it is hard to really make a direct comparison as yesterday I did a lot of 840/5.6 shooting and 840/5.6 renders the images (mostly similar subjects at similar distances) a lot differently than 500/5.6 no matter the other lens qualities. And then comparing 600/4 to 500/5.6 is also difficult. I guess I really should compare 600/5.6 to 500/5.6. This was the only Z9 outing that I shot the 600 side by side. My other outings I used the 200-600 to get a bit closer comparison. But I didn't do much shooting with the Sony kit those first 6 days as I wanted to concentrate on the usability and AF of the Z9.

I'm happy with the decision I made and glad I got to own the Z9 for awhile. For me it came down to a decision of keeping the Z9/500PF/TC kit or using that money to buy a Sony 400GM. I decided to go for the lens (although that isn't 100% decided yet).
