NIKKOR Z 400 f/4.5 vs 70-200 f/2.8 with TC 2.0x Shootout

#nikonz8 #nikkor My first 400mm focal length lens was actually the F-mount AF-S NIKKOR 70-200 f/2.8 G ED VR II zoom coupled with the TC 20E III. So, it followed that when I switched to the Z System and bought the Z 70-200 f/2.8 VR S I'd also add the matching TC 2.0x teleconverter,
Then, along came the Z 400mm f/4.5 VR S. How could I resist? In this video, I compare image results (at 400mm) with both lenses.
