Great product
Great service! Love the lens!

SMALL, LIGHTWEIGHT, FAST FOCUSING, SHARP!
I have used a Nikon 200-500 for the past 6 years, and have loved it ... it produces superb, crisp, images, especially for its price. To be honest, the images from The 500 PF are maybe slightly better, but close in quality to the 200-500. What makes this lens more desirable, and worth the extra money is its small size, light weight, and extremely fast focusing. As an older guy, the size and weight are a welcome change from the heavy 200-500. The focus speed is much faster, blistering fast, ... very close to the speed of the Nikon 70-200 f2.8 E FL. Combined with a fast body, like a D500, or a Z9, the 500 PF with its fast focus, and the size and weight making for quicker handling, are likely to get many more of those crisp images.

Worth the wait!
I have been waiting for this to be in stock for a very long time. Totally worth it! I like shooting wildlife and it frequently takes me on long hikes. The weight savings over my Nikon 200-500 is worth it alone on a 6 mile day. Image output is what you would expect from a Nikon upper end prime. This is also my first lens with assignable buttons on it. Didn’t realize how much I would use them. I now usually just take this and my 300mm pf with me on my adventures. If you move around a lot, this lens is for you.

Worth the price
Probably my go to lens for bird and wildlife photography. Having used this lens almost everyday for 6 months I can say that this lens is great and is worth the price. I actually went with Nikon because this is the most affordable (lol) 500mm lens on the market. The AF is snappy and responsive, and the manual override feature is great for trying to capture fast moving targets like Golden-crowned kinglets and warblers. Also works great with my teleconverters ( 1.4x and 2.0. with Nikon Z7). Leave the VR in sport mode and thank me later! However this lens is far from perfect. It has issues with acquiring birds in flight, and will do the focus in focus out shuffle until you miss your shots completely. The normal VR is almost unusable and causes the camera to bounce around, which, as I stated above, is why it is imperative that you leave it in Sport mode. This lens also has trouble capturing sharp pictures of birds in water, however I'm not sure if this is a lens issue or Nikon camera issue since I had the same problem with my D850. Overall, way more hits than misses and would highly recommend this lens to anyone who wants to get into bird or wildlife photography and doesn't want to take out a second mortgage to purchase a prime telephoto lens.

High Quality photos with very light lens
I use this lens for wildlife. It focuses very well and fast with my Nikon D850. It is very light making it easier to carry attached to my camera than my Nikon 200-500. I find myself too close at times but most of the time it is just fine and I learn to position myself for the 500mm. Very pleased with this lens.

Excellent prime lens
Quite simply, than this is an excellent lens. I photograph birds and wildlife, and this lens is part of my go-to kit. It is much lighter than the f4 model (and much less expensive). I use it without a tripod, which is almost impossible with the f4. The only thing I swapped out was the lens foot in favor of a Wimberley AP-500 replacement (Arca-Swiss Style). Nikon should make these standard on their lenses, but to me this is a minor gripe.

Wonderful 500mm lens
I love this lens! My images are sharp, and it is light enough for me to handle easily without a tripod. I strongly recommend this lens for any photographer, particularly for those who enjoy photographing birds.

Wow Just Wow
Purchased this lens because i cant afford (as most cant) The 500-600-800F4 Lens at about 8-10 grand for starters. This is just a fraction of the price and yes its only an F5.6 but you get one hell of a lens, I have mine paired with a D850 and Wow Just wow... I love this lens and i have also paired it with a nikon 1.4 tele and ive seen about a 3-4% loss in picture quality. So its a win win... If you are thinking about getting this lens, DONT just buy it you will not regret it
