Nikon Nikkor Z 600mm f/4 TC VR S

Nikon has another winner in its line-up of long telephoto optics. Their Z 600mm f4 TC VR S is an excellent lens with one extremely compelling feature over rival systems: It has a built-in 1.4x teleconverter which changes it into an 840mm f5.6 lens at the flick of a switch. The lens also produces very sharp images with virtually no field-curvature or colour aberrations and can confidently be used wide open and with the built-in 1.4x teleconverter. Its Bokeh is very nice and the optical image stabilization of over 5 stops together with its reduced weight proves really helpful with hand-holding the lens. All this makes the Z 600mm f4 TC VR S another unique "two-for-the-price/weight-of-one" lens for sports and wild-life photography and rightfully earns it a Highly Recommended - despite its eye-watering price tag.
