Why did Nikon do away with the gorgeous ct-402 hard case that came with the older 400 2.8 lens?

bro~ super.you created amazing edition.😉

[@danielparent5512]

I'd like to hear your views / review of the sharpness with both internal and external teleconverters at the same time...

[@RyanMenseWildlife]

I wasn't given an external teleconverter to use, and I'm not sure Nikon would let me do that test right now anyway. The lens itself is from preproduction so they don't want me to give "final" thoughts on it as it's not from the public production run, which makes sense.

hi,
if it's possible I'd really like to know how this combo is working with an external 1.4 z tc and the intrnal 1.4 tc engaged
many thanks !

No 500 pf?

Nah, I'm just reviewing the new Nikon products. These are borrowed from the company.

Is that your copy or a loner? The 400 not the Z9
