Nikon Japan has temporarily suspended orders for the Nikkor Z 600mm f/6.3 VR S lens due to an “overwhelming number of pre-orders.” This is strange because the Z 600mm f/6.3 lens was announced back in 2023, and it’s currently in stock at major retailers:
- US: B&H Photo | Service Photo | Paul’s Photo (now $500 off)
- DE: Foto Erhardt
- UK: WEX Photo
- CA: Camera Canada
