I have the AF 300/4 and the AF-S 300/4. Love the handling of the former, but it's almost useless by hit rate (and by that, I mean that I get about equal outcomes with MF vs. AF). The latter is just too big and heavy. (Not longer, but much, much thicker and it weighs a lot more.) If only the D850 was cheaper. I want more megapixels than the D500 can offer. It bothers me to not have a meaningful pixel "premium" vs. the 5K iMac.

The D850 margin for focus is pretty razor thin, so I'm not sure your hit rate would improve much with the 300 lenses...But it's decently fast with and without the grip to provide more opportunities for focus. Maybe Clyde needs to move this up to the photo forum... |
