Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 500mm f/5.6E PF ED VR lens review


Here is a quick Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 500mm f/5.6E PF ED VR lens review by Axel Güthner:

The reputation of 300mm PF lens is top, therefore I was curious about this new AF-S 500mm F5,6 PF lens. I was always looking for a long telephoto lens suitable for travel purpose.

More Nikon Z7 reviews


Based on the information I received from readers, the first batch of Nikon Z cameras in the US did not even fulfill the pre-orders placed at B&H on the first day after the official announcement.

Since the Z7 camera is now shipping, I will reduce the number of reviews I post here on NikonRumors. If you want to continue to get the latest Nikon Z tests and reviews, you should follow the Nikon Z Facebook Page and the Nikon Z Facebook Group. I will, of course, continue to cover Z accessories, selected reviews and other Z related topics on the blog.

Here are the latest Nikon Z7 reviews:
