That's what I am doing - in my case, it just means that I am using the Z9 with the 800PF almost exclusively nowadays. The only other Z-mount lens I have is the 24-70/4 that I got at a good discount and that I have used maybe a handful of times so far. Even the 500PF lingers in the bag for lack of opportunity to deploy it. The F-mount equipment is pretty much unused as well - I occasionally grab the D850 with the Tamron 35-150/2.8-4 mounted. Sometimes, the SIgma 150/2.8 OS macro or the Tamron 90/2.8 VC macro. Really no need for the Z8 at this stage. I already got rid of a lot of my F-mount equipment, the rest I will continue to share with my wife (who has no intention to get a mirrorless anytime soon). Appears to be in line now with the original price of the 500PF: 1.2x longer, 1.2x more expensive. Of course, with the discount on the 500PF now, the 600PF should cost just shy of 4k. Given the current cost for the 800PF, the discounted price for the 600PF should be around $4500 (without discount, the 600PF cost 0.75x of the 800PF, exactly in line with the ratio of their focal lengths). Of course, nowadys used 500PF lenses can be had for around $2k - which is a real bargain in my book. -

I have an old pair of Pentax binoculars with yellowed glass. Maybe the same treatment will work. But I've always wondered if it's safe to hold this glass close to my eyes for long. -

I've never used plastic tanks. When I was in school, it was always "Real men use stainless steel!" -

Essentially all F-mount bodies and lenses, similar to other (D)SLR equipment, worth a lot less today, regardless of whether you dump it or not. I am still holding onto most of that, but I have mostly newer Z-mount lenses now. Life is too short to worry about cost, and I feel that I might as well use top-of-the-line equipment while I still can.
