I am torn between the 200mm f2 and the 300 f2.8, which do you think would be better for me; I would use it for indoor sporting events and wildlife ?

The 300 F2.8 is one of the best lens Nikon has ever made and is better. The added reach and the fact that the 300 F 2.8 works perfectly with 1.4, 1.7 and 2.0 converters makes it the perfect choice. I have tried the 500 F4 and it is way to big to carry around or hold. The 300 f 2.8 is still large but can be handheld which is huge. Thanks for asking.

Will this lens fit a Nikon Z6 and what is the zoom power in (X) ?

no. completely different mount but there maybe an adapter but not certain

Specs show 52mm photo filter thread size? based on current lens design, it looks more like a 72 or 77mm. what it the size?

The filter for these huge lens is on the back of len, not in the front. All Nikon 300mm 2.8 version(I, II, VR) use 52mm filter.

Is this lens compatable with The Nikon D7000 camera?

It is a FX lens, that is full format. I do not see why it would not be compatible with a DX body like the D7000. Nikon USA site says, answering a similar question about the D200 and The D300, that Yes this lens is compatible with these 2 cameras.

AF May Not Be Accurate

Please see the attached graphs. I used LensAlign and FocusTune to test the Nikkor 300mm f2.8G ED VRII lens, Serial Number L 209819. The lens was mounted on an Arca-Swiss Z1G (giant) monoball and Gitzo 5000 series carbon-fiber legs, at a height of 107cm. The ISO was 1600 and the shutter speed was 1/320. The lens-to-target distance was 8 meters and I used a shutter release cable. The camera body was a Nikon D4 that last week came back from Nikon after being adjusted for a back-focusing issue. For an overview of the lens AF performance, I took 4 shots at each micro-adjustment value from minus 20 to plus 20 in steps of 5 units. Based on this overview test and to look for a peak in the curve, I took 9 shots at each micro-adjustment value from plus 10 to plus 20 in steps of 2 units. As you can see both curves go up from left to right, but do not come down. Jeepers, there is no peak. Conclusion, this high-priced lens is focusing in front of the target by greater than 20 micro-adjustment units.If this was my first such experience, I would not be so appalled.Sad to say, that last month I tested a new Nikkor 85mm 1.8D lens, only to find that it was focusing behind the target by greater than minus 20 micro-adjustment units.Caveat emptor; or do you think that we pro photographers can still trust Nikon's Quality Control?
