I do, one of my favorite lenses ever. The Nikon has 3 major advantages though…10 degree shorter zoom throw, and no lens creep. The Sony will creep even with the zoom tightness ring maxed out. Third advantage, but one I need to test, is the MFD on the Nikon is 20% closer than the Sony. I use the Sony for pseudo macro more than I use my actual macro lens because the results are so pleasing.

Still not buying a Z9 but picking up a 24-120 and 100-400 on Monday to give them a thorough test on the Z7ii. If I end up not liking them, check the B&S board in a few weeks
It pays to call around!
Do you not like your Sony 100-400GM?
I use the 80-400 AFS for same. Just screw in a Canon 500D into the threads. I've owed two micro Nikkor and this is just as sharp.... at least.
