(LINKS BELOW): I’ve had the privilege to shoot and test Nikon's new ultra-light, ultra-sharp 400 f4.5 S lens for the past few weeks. How does it perform? What do I like about it? What could @nikonusa have done better? How does it handle the Z mount teleconverters. How does it compare to my 100-400, my friend David’s 400 2.8 TC S, and my 800 PF when using the 2.0 TC with it? Why am I choosing not to keep it? Who should consider buying it? I’ll talk about all that in this video while sharing sample images from the lens.
