Low light photography?

Your main issue isn’t the Z30, it’s low light + autofocus limits + movement. First thing: in dark scenes, autofocus struggles because there’s not enough contrast. That’s why it feels like it’s “not focusing.” Try switching to manual focus and using focus peaking. It’s way more reliable in abandoned/

Beginner Nikon camera recommendation $1000–$1200?

Serbia, if there is something new within this budget, I would probably prefer that. I was also looking at the Nikon Z30 kit (16–50mm + 50–250mm), but used gear is also completely fine for me if it offers better value.

Please Nikon make a Z7 III

Segmentation is more justified at the lower end of the market where $400 is a lot of money. There’s a lot of cameras Nikon could make. Z7iii, Zf with 45MP sensor, a high-end APS-C camera, etc. Zfc and Z30 are still waiting on EXPEED 7 updates, as well, and there’s probably a bunch of R&D work going

Is the Ricoh GR xiii a good first camera for my use case?

I don't recommend a Ricoh if you want to do any amout of video work. It's a photography first camera and video is very limited. Get something like a Nikon Z30 or Z50ii with the Nikkor 24mm f1.7, or a Fujifilm X-M5 with a similar lens. It'll cost you less and get you better results. Plus you'll have

Looking for gear advice (body upgrade from rebel t6)

Link to a listing of a Z body with fast and accurate animal eye tracking AF (i.e., has an EXPEED 7 processor in it) in that price range. Because that's the premiere AF feature every bird/wildlife photography has to have. Understand all the Canon Digic X bodies (and that's everything except the R, RP

Nikon refurb site is "upsidedown" Z30 prices again.

There is a web site that lets you directly compare images for different cameras. I set it to JPEG and selected Your D810E, The New Nikon Z50ii Hasselblad X1D and older iPhones I think I see this... The X1D wins, hands down. Between the 810E and Z50, the 810 has more resolution but the Z50ii ios very

Help, which camera for a beginner. NIKON Z50?

Yes, go for the crop sensor. The Z50 is a great choice. Nikon's naming system means the Z cameras with a 0 at the end are crop sensor (DX), so Z30, Z50, and Z50II. The newer Z50II has quite a lot of improvements but it may not be worth the extra money if you're just starting out and not sure how ser
