I have and shoot the 400 f2.8TC, 100-400S, and 180-600 regularly. My most used lens is the 400 TC… probably 50% w/ 1.4x engaged (560mm), 40% @400mm, and 10% w two converters. While I can see the value of the 120-300 for wildlife, I suspect that I’d be shooting at 420mm more often than not… For a place like Africa, this is an ideal lens, but I suspect that for many other locations, it will be a bit short.
I think if Nikon made a Z180-400TC f4 and shaved the weight off the F mount, I’d be ready to rebuild my kit… I can’t say the same for this new lens.
