I recently attended the air show in town and wanted to shoot it with my Z9 and 180-600mm lens. I found it near hopeless trying to find focus on the fast moving jets. I have shot them in past years with a 500PF and picked them up fine. I used the same setup, the Z9 and the 180-600mm, to shoot the eclipse earlier this year and I was worried that I may have damaged one or both pieces. I inadvertently had the camera/lens pointing at the full sun for up to a minute before noticing. I did some quick test like shooting against a white building and looking for spots and everything seemed normal. But I think something it off. What's your advise, more home testing or send it to Nikon?
