Would you pay $14,000 for a lens?

Nikon officially announced the NIKKOR Z 120–300mm f/2.8 TC VR S, and the U.S. price is $13,999.95.

I hoped it would land under $10,000. Several of my subscribers predicted closer to $15,000.

Even at this price, I think Nikon has built a compelling option for demanding sports and wildlife photography. The native 120–300mm f/2.8 range and built-in teleconverter offer flexibility that could matter when the action changes quickly.

In my latest YouTube video, I cover the official specifications and explain why I think the price is fair—even though it’s certainly expensive.

A $99 lens on my Nikon Z8 - would you expect portraits like these? 👀📷

I tested the TTArtisan 85mm f/1.8 NEO with model Iona. Sharp results, smooth background blur, and a lightweight build—but autofocus speed is the trade-off.

Could this be the telephoto zoom you’ve been waiting for? 📷

My latest video follows up on Nikon’s NIKKOR Z 120–300mm f/2.8 TC VR S development announcement with a new rumor update.

Beyond the headlines, I’m discussing what this kind of lens could mean in the field: changing compositions, unpredictable subjects, and the flexibility of an integrated teleconverter.

Does it excite you—or does your current setup already cover what you need?
