70-200 vrii vs prime lenses quality

to be fair, the 70-200 is weakest at 200mm, strongest at 70mm. This is typical of Canikon zoom lenses btw. So if you are going to compare this zoom to a prime, you would have to consider which focal length. I'm sure for your purposes the Micro Nikkor 200m would deliver substantially better IQ than the 70-200mm @ 200mm. But at 70mm, the 70-200mm might "hold its own" compared to the Micro Nikkor 60mm. The Micro Nikkor 105mm is Nikon's sharpest lens period. So no fair comparison there.
