Perhaps the most surprising optic in this week's announcement of two new Nikon lenses is the Z 180-600mm f/5.6-6.3 VR.
We knew that a mysterious 200-600mm lens was listed on the Z-lens roadmap, but with no fewer than four super-telephoto optics announced in 2022 – as well as the Nikon Z 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 VR S, announced at the tail-end of 2021 – I’ll readily admit that for a hot minute I’d completely forgotten there was still a Z-mount contender for the best 150-600mm lens in the pipeline.
