Hi,
I am really loving my new (used) 600 mm f4 FL ED, since it gives me really tack sharp images with great backgrounds and I always shoot wide open. Autofocus is super fast too in combination with my d850. In comparison to all of my more normal priced glass, it has been a huge leap in quality for me. I have not been using my slower PF lenses any more and might sell them.
I am now considering to get some new glass - also faster - for closer targets and am considering something like 70 - 200 mm f/2.8 E FL. In reviews you find…one of the best lenses Nikon has ever made…
What is your opinion? A good buy or are there better alternatives in this focal length area? I thought a zoom like this - if it really has the great quality described - could come in handy as a second lens to the 600 f/4.
