Nikon 70-200mm f/2.8E FL on Nikon D4S, f/2.8, 1/400 s., ISO 1400 Visit time are restricted to one hour; strictly enforced by the park guides and park guards accompanying you on your trip. So I was rather disappointed, to say the least, when our first 30 minutes were lost as the biggest torrential rain I had ever experienced came washing down on us.
In fact, when the Nikon F-mount 70-200mm f/2.8E FL came out in 2016, we praised it for its relatively light weight compared to prior 70-200mm f/2.8 lenses. While standards have risen in recent years (partly Nikon’s own doing thanks to their excellent and lightweight Z lenses), the fact remains that the Z 70-200mm f/2.8’s weight is 70-200 FL has a lot of sample variation at 200mm f/2.8. Stopping down a little to f/3.2 should help a lot. 70-200 FL is rather weak at close focus distance. It is optimised for mid to far distance. 300 PF is optimised for close to mid distance, it is weaker at far distance.

This *lesser* f4 lens gets extremely good reviews, even citing it better than the 2nd generation 70-200mm VR. The 70-200/4G is lesser in price and weight but not in performance. I also own the 70-200/2.8E FL and they are equal in sharpness overall. The E is a boat anchor in comparison and I always use the G except in low light situations.

Next-best is a plate with a flat rubber surface like the plain 200PL. The "pro" plate that comes with the head looks completely inappropriate to use with the 70-200's tripod foot. It's made to attach to the large, flat bottom of a camera body, not a lens tripod foot. When using a plate with a single screw, choose whichever socket on the foot
I took all three lenses, the Canon 70-200mm f/2.8L IS II, the Nikon 70-200mm f/2.8E FL ED AF-S VR, and the Sony FE 70-200mm f/2.8 GM OSS, and I shot our test chart with all of them on the Sony a7R II. For Canon, I used a Metabones T Smart Adapter IV, and for Nikon, I used a Novoflex Nikon to Sony E adapter. I manually focused all three lenses
