What I can do is keep using the Z6 without this ever being a problem - as do most actual Z owners, I would suggest.  If I can't get the shot at 5.5 fps, it's me at fault not the camera.

I didn't bother answering it - because it's not true. The D5 User's Manual on page 99 specifies that you get the maximum of 99 cross sensors with AF-S / AF-P lenses of f/4 or faster, then lists a ...

It's unusual, but not new. Some years ago, an AF Nikkor 50mm f/1.8D that I bought new from an approved retailer came with the white plastic push-on rear cap. PS - I just noticed that (at the time ...

Logic, common sense and long Nikon experience. The updated lens will work the same on your D4s as it does on your D5.

The firmware is for the lens, not the camera.  I can't make it any clearer. I apologise for trying to help by linking to the download page.

That's a very long post for a simple question...! The firmware update is for the lens, not the camera, but only the D5 / D850 generation (and later) cameras have the ability to install it on the lens.

Please define "best". Oti... ;-)

Feel free to believe that if you wish - I think it's a long way from reality. Not really - polls like this are both influenced and limited by the options that the pollster chooses.  Treat them as a ...

Agreed.

This post is not a "review", and should be removed.

This looks like a Minolta AF mount, later adopted by Sony as the Alpha Mount when they bought Minolta. I think you would need a Sony Alpha to Canon EF-S adapter like this one: https://fotodioxpro.c ...

Yes, and in the previous generations, the 400mm was lighter than the 600mm: (1) AF-S G - 400mm 4,800gm / 600mm 5,900gm (2) AF-S G II - 400mm 4,400gm / 600mm 4,750gm

Yep - and some people sound dumb, and are often wrong... I used to think the same as you, but Marianne's work clearly showed that I was wrong. I had always assumed that, because the lens is wide ...

I would check out Marianne Oelund's posting history at DPR before doubting her claims :-) edited to add: This thread is a good place to start: https://www.dpreview.com/forums/thread/3713509 (sadly, ...

I'd say it's more usual than you may think :-) AF Fine Tune has been a hot topic on forums for quite a while, led (IMO) by those for whom the desire to coax the last bit of sharpness from their ...

It is.

Nice one :-) I expect some people will think that's a serious piece.

You realise the questions you're trying to answer were posted almost 2 years ago?  And the OP hasn't posted at DPR for a year...

I answered that question when this thread was new, 3 years ago :-) https://www.dpreview.com/forums/post/59504258 (the answer is no, it doesn't)

How is any of that relevant to the OP, who is renting a 500mm PF and simply wondering whether to purchase it outright?
