If you’re a pro and can write the Z 70-200mm f2.8 then by all means, it’s reported to be the best.   If not the give the Tamron a look.  It’s supposed to be as good as the E version.

I have the Tamron, no experience with the Nikon VR II or Sigma sport.  But reviews that I've seen rate is just a fast as the Newest Nikon FL lens.

Not me, my kit lens does everything I need it to do and for those who want to pick one up used there are a steal.

I've heard (not owned) that the Nikon 24-70mm F2.8G version is the sharpest in the center compared to the ones mentioned.  That said for your type of work I'd also take a look at the Sigma ...

Thanks!  These were taken before the updated firmware was released.  The animal eye AF was hit or miss, so I'm looking forward to trying it again.

I picked this lens up over a month ago, been busy.  So I took it out for a spin a few nights ago with my favorite subject. Nikon Z6 w/Nikkor Z 85mm f1.8s shot wide open.

If you don't need 12FPS or the added video features of the Z6 then yes.   I don't but I'd rather have it and not need it than the other way around.  :-)

Timing is everything, you just missed the Nikon June sale, you could have picked up the FL lens with your insurance money.  That said I've seen them on Ebay (used) in your price range. I have the ...

What do you plan on using the D610 or Z6 for?  I you don't need eye AF and IBIS then you should go for the D610.  Or wait for the Z6 prices to drop when the rumored Z6s and Z7s come out later this ...

Nooo.

That's a tuff one, like picking your favorite child tuff (and we have have one, admit it). The 50mm...

Selling my Nikon Z 85mm f1.8s in mint condition. Comes complete with box, caps, and everything else a new one would. USA version.  Only selling to fund the 70-200mm F2.8 Z mount lens. Price is $750 ...

The 50 or 85mm.

Looks like a Z body and D-3/4/5/6 had a baby.  I doubt the final version will look much like this.  The top doesn't look hardened or pro enough.

I did, very impressive performance given the reach of the 24-200mm.  Is he the only one doing Nikon Z reviews?  :-)

Do you have the kit lens?  My kit lens will make a noise when changing apertures, so I'm going to say this is normal. I'm looking at this lens too.

Real world examples from the youtuber Ricci Talks shows how good this lens really is. It stands up well to the Z mount F2.8 version of this lens. And how well it holds up to primes. The only real ...

Thanks for all the replies.  It works, tested it on my Sigma 24-105mm F4 and Tamron 70-200mm G2.

I'm doing something wrong (newish Z6 owner).  I seem to get it to work with my Kit lens but not with my 3rd party lenses.  I'll play with it some more. Thanks!

Thanks for the clarification.  I must be doing something wrong with my Tamron 70-200mm G2.
