Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. What tripod would you recommend with this lens as well as a Gimbal?

A: For use with a gimbal, we'd always recommend slightly taller since when aimed skyward, the working eye-level of your camera is lowered. Too low of a tripod and you'd have to bend forward to use. I'd recommend a series 3 or 4 systematic-style tripod from Robus, Gitzo, Induro, RRS, etc. for use with a gimbal like the Wimberley WH200 https://bhpho.to/3ow9kMh or Gitzo fluid gimbal head (may also be used quite well with spotting scopes) https://bhpho.to/3sfbmmi.

Q: 3. Anyone use the 600 for sports? I currently use a 300mm f/2.8 on a D850 and find it too short for soccer/rugby fields. great for baseball and basketball. Not sure if I need to go to 400-500-600mm.

A: Given the much greater 600mm telephoto reach, if your current longest lens is a 300mm then this would be a worthy addition. To get an idea of what that would be like, at 600mm you're seeing 25 percent of the frame you see when you're at 300mm. That's four times as "close." Having said that, especially since you're shooting with such a high resolution camera, you'll want to use a tripod or monopod so that camera shake doesn't rob you of any of the detail that your sensor can capture.

Q: 10. Would this lens work with my Nikon D7100 camera and would the AF work at all f stops?

A: This lens will work fine with the Nikon D7100. Concern about f/stops comes into play only if the maximum aperture is too small for whatever camera is being used to focus with. This is a concern with tele-extenders and cameras less than the top level. Since you are not using any tele-extender, and the focus aperture is f/4 and the lens will stop down to whatever aperture you select for the shot, there will be no issue regarding AF or f/stops.
