I've got it, but that only gets me to 420mm equivalent.

I'd like 600mm Equivalent or more. I like the look of the Nikon D7200 + 200-500mm F5.6, but the weight is marginally too much. But maybe the lens I want would be equally as heavy

What we need is a 2x TC for the 40-150. It would be a bit slow, but it would give the same reach and speed as the xx-300 zooms, with better build and a tiny additional bit of kit.

Well, it could work as well, being a stop slower but with much lower contrast. And it would eventually require to stop down to f/6.7-8 range to get the highest contrast.

But it would give exactly the required 80-300mm focal length range that many would like.
