In this Nikon Z 180-600mm review I talk you through my experiences using the Nikon 180-600mm lens and how it has worked for me as well as some of the slight issues I have had with this lens.
After using the Nikon 180-600mm lens now for over 6 weeks I kind of have a love hate relationship with it for a few different reasons that I get into in a good bit more detail in this lens review.
These slight issues have delayed this review being posted as I just honestly didn't know how I personally felt about the Nikon 180-600.
In saying all that if you are a budding Nature or wildlife photographer then the Nikon Z 180-600mm lens could very well be the best lens for you, in fact I would say this is possibly one of the best wildlife photography lenses you can get for the money.
So join me in this review where I walk you and talk you through my experiences and the pros and conns that I have found in this 180-600mm Lens.
