Why switch systems? Nikon will be running circles around Sony in a couple of years. Sony can’t even get enough parts to make all their cameras right now and their service is a nightmare. Why the rush? The Nikon 600mm f4 will be out within 18 months. And mid next year the 800 pf will be out.

If you sell the Sigma and have the $ for the 600 GM, I would not wait for the 800.
I've talked to several 600 GM owners, including one last night, who bought it when it first came out and still enjoys it.
You can get so many good images with an a9 or a1 and 600 GM between now and when the 800 PF comes out.
When it comes out and people starting using it, if the 800 PF is more appealing to you, you could easily sell the 600 GM
for not much loss .. it is in demand and the supply chain issues won't get better till 2023.
I would just go Sony if I were you, ChrisMak, and look at Nikon again next year.
If you decide to keep the Sigma, then please use it on a z body and you will be very happy with how freaking sharp
and colorful the images can get, with help from Adobe Raw Enhance. And no need to AF tune!!
We are all entitled to our opinions but in my opinion that is a lot of hyperbole backed by little to no evidence. I have no dog in this race as I'll shoot both systems. Because this is the Nikon forum I won't go into evidence refuting your claims as to not drag down this thread. But I couldn't hold my tongue completely after reading your comment.
