Honestly didn’t check at shorter distances as mine is almost always used at 400.




Thanks Roaming... I just edited my post with some additional results. The only scenario I'm getting less than stellar capture is close up (~3 feet), 400mm, wide open. If I just stop down to f/6.3 things tighten acceptably at that distance, or if I zoom out to 380mm close-up wide-open results get tight. For more normal wildlife distances (e.g. 20 feet), 400mm wide open is looking great.

My next test is to use a focusing rail close up and see if its just that the Z7 sucks at close focusing the new zoom, and it is just good enough that its only noticeable at f/5.6 at 400mm. FW 3.4 mentioned updating Z7 compatibility for the Z 24-120mm but no mention of this one.
