Ah ok, that makes more sense. Thanks!

Thats good news, it is a lens I am quite interested in. Have you personally used that lens on Z cameras? Is the IBIS + VR better than just the VR on F-Mount cameras? Cheers.

Just to clarify, is this relating to Nikon F-Mount lenses? I do know how people are very happy with them on Z Mount cameras and how they operate flawlessly, and it's good to hear that the 300 f4D ...

Thanks all for your input. It has been very helpful! I think I've decided that I will be choosing either the Tamron 100-400 or Sigma 150-600. If a Nikon 80-400 comes at a good price in decent ...

That is worrying, so maybe it is a better idea to avoid that specific lens and go for the zooms then. The 300 PF is very nice but out of my budget unfortunately. That model had issues as well, ...

Ok, I will have to use both focal lenses at some point and make a decision then... Cheers.

Thanks for the info - this is basically what I was looking for. So there is definitely reliability issues when it comes to AF?

I think I'll stick with the newer lenses for the time being, then. Compatibility is quite important for me as I may change bodies in the near future. I have found a used copy of the 300 f/4D with a ...

Thanks for the response. 400mm on a D7000 is 600mm equiv. on FF. I would like to check whether you are saying that 500mm focal length is minimum on an FF body or a APS-C crop like mine? Because ...

Depends on where I am to be honest. Locally it would be any sorts of animals and birds. Abroad I would mainly be shooting much more tropical birds. I also like macro and butterfly photography, and ...

Thanks for the reply. This is something I've been thinking about. Do you know any good renting options in the UK? Also, just curious, but in the unlikely event that the lens I receive is damaged, ...

I was just wondering if people have used these lenses on any of the Z bodies - I would love to hear how they perform. Specifically in the AF department, please. (1) Tamron/Sigma 100-400

After reading my old thread, I just realized that the D7000 can only use centre focus point at f6.3 and beyond. Does that mean that all the Tamron and Sigma lenses mentioned cannot use any other ...

Hello, Quite a few months ago I put up a thread discussing different telephoto options for my D7000. I currently use a 55-200 and was thinking about a longer zoom lens at the time, as I'm very ...

In the end I ordered the TT350N, I do travel quite a lot and the TT685 is double the size and weight (ish) so hopefully the compromises won't be that bad. Thank you all for the help, I received the ...

Wow, that's a very comprehensive answer - thank you! I think I will go ahead with a TTL flash, it may come in handy at some point. Probably the TT350N, as its cheaper and portable, which would be ...

Ah ok, thanks! Neewer TTL flashes aren't too expensive, and I have also found a Godox TTL flash that is well priced. What other accessories would you recommend especially for macro, if I may ask?

Thanks for the input - I shall have a look at a used SB600, as it seems to be a good flash.  As it is quite an old model, would still be ok to buy it used? I've heard varying opinions on used ...

Hello all, I have decided to buy a flash for my Nikon D7000, as I would like to be able to control lighting more, especially indoor family shots, macrophotography, and more creative things too! I ...

Also I would like to ask how the autofocus system is on the Nikon 1J5, vs a Z50 and D500 for BIF, nature and wildlife photography? I know all of these systems are capable, but have heard the D500 ...
