[QUOTE="jakraig, post: 826209, member: 54332"] I am a Nikon shooter and have a D850, Z7 and Z9. I have the F70-200 and the S24-120 F4 but I find myself using the F28-300 frequently. In Daylight I have no complaints with the lens even when using the adapter on the Z7 and Z9. All my cameras perform well at high ISO's but when doing night sports like a football game, even well lighted I find I do have to shoot with pretty high ISO's when using a shutter faster than 250. With noise reduction it still works out pretty well but I do often have to use noise reduction for a printed picture, especially if it is larger than 5x7. Using the Z9 with pre capture being limited to JPEG's gives me a bigger problem than shooting RAW but if you want to get the shot the lens will perform well enough even with pre-capture. The lens is all over the place used and for a walk around can't be beat. I have the G2 Tamron 150 - 600 but it mostly stays in the case since getting the 28-300. For serious high contrast extra sharp images I like my 50, 85 and 105 primes but those are almost studio conditions where the focal length is pretty much constant. When you need a zoom this super zoom all the way to 300 really performs. For basket ball I will use the S24-120 but for field sports the F28-300 is now my go to lens. [/QUOTE]
