SUMMARY
Nikon Japan has temporarily halted orders for the Z 600mm f/6.3 VR S lens, citing an "overwhelming number of pre-orders" that surpassed expectations. This suspension, active since August 8th, comes despite the lens not being new, having been announced in 2023. Retailers reportedly still have stock, and the reason for the sudden surge in demand is unclear, though the lens has received perfect five-star reviews for its lightweight build, high-spec construction, and superb image quality.
