The advantage of the Nikon 200-500mm over Tamron/Sigma 150-600mm, aside from higher image quality, is that the Nikon 200-500mm is a fixed f5.6 and can be combined with a 1.4x extender to reach f/8, while the 150-600mm are f5-6.3 and will reach f/9.
Reportedly the D750 can actually still handle f/9, but the D7200, D4s and D810 apparently can not.
That's a good point to consider. I don't think I'll be getting any of those lenses just yet, but the idea of using the TC on them hadn't occurred to me. Thanks
