Go and read his article about Sony influencers, clickbait, and “the crowned king of footnotes” (spoiler: it’s Sony). Here is a quote from the article:

The Nikkor Z 400mm f/2.8 TC VR S lens is also listed at B&H but pre-orders are not open yet.

Given the current global part shortage and shipping issues, I expect the Nikon z9 to be out of stock for a long time. Make sure you place a pre-order early even if you are still not sure if you need one – you can always cancel the pre-order later.
