Those who've switched DSLR to mirrorless....

Zero regrets. From a Nikon D500 crop sensor to a full-frame Z6ii. I went from a great camera to a fantastic one.

Z50ii vs Z5ii

No, in normal shooting cases in good lighting with people who know how to use the cameras, you won't be able to know which shots are from either sensor without looking for clues, like resolution, EXIF data etc. Some here will violently disagree with that statement and some "professionals" will tell

Just how bad is the Z7II's autofocus?

I'm not sure where this idea comes from, perhaps other than maybe the Z8/9 and newer Expeed 7-based cameras just being so much better by comparison (which they are). That said, I used Z6II and Z7II bodies for work for a few years, and they were "fine." I didn't like their subject tracking implementa

Is going from a Z7 to a D850 a downgrade, an upgrade, or a side grade?

I'm a professional and owned both. The image quality is near identical... They produce incredibly similar files. The D850 is a much more agile, and responsive camera though. It has way better AF and a faster drive. That comes with a huge weight penalty though. The Z7 is probably in the discussion fo

Switched from Nikon Z FF to OM-1 MK2 a couple weeks ago!

I did the same exact thing. I was a Nikon boy for over 8 years and was always curious about OM. I switched to the OM-1 Mark II back in October and never touched my Nikon stuff again. I sold my Z6ii and lenses after. The OM-1 made my Z feel like an antique with how much tech the OM-1 has. Of course t

What is it with Nikon and Social Media

If you're a landscape photographer, sure. But as a wedding or event photographer, the Z6 was completely underwhelming and literally generations behind the competition.. Tracking was rudimentary. AF could not keep up with moving subjects, especially in low light. It didn't even have eye detection out

Z6 III or Z8? I have the 45MP FOMO but my bank account is in DX mode.

Yeah get the z6iii with the lens zoom!! I have the Nikon 200-500 zoom lens and I rather use that on my z6ii than to crop in! I mostly use it for landscape and random wild life I see . I do also wants the Z8 and I do want it for 8k video since I do both but I rather also get the Z6iii and use it's 6K

Upgrade my gear from Nikon Z6II to Nikon Z8

The Z8 far, far exceeds the Z6ii in almost every way, so I am confident in saying it will be better “in terms of performance and technical features”, since you haven’t actually said what your needs are. AF performance, subject detection, 3D tracking, speed, resolution, controls, video, low latency v

Passing the torch Z6 -> Z6iii

My Z6 is ironically pretty much a dedicated video camera now, in a rig. Because even though its internal video can't keep up, its 10-bit UHD output for Prores 422 recording is great. And I've set it up to be easy to grab out of its rig when I want to use it as just a normal camera again. And ironica

In love with my Fujifilm X-Pro 2

The X-Pro2 is one of my "special" cameras. Most cameras, I could use them and love them, but if you present me the upgraded model, I probably wouldn't have any problems when it comes to switching to the newer model. Like, I used to use an X-T2 + X-H1 for event photography. Change them for an X-T3 +
