Z 6II

"....looking on upgrading to the Nikon Z6ii or Z5ii next year." The Z6II will not feel like much of an upgrade. When you do get around to upgrading, don't bother with anything other than an EXPEED 7 body - they are an order of magnitude better in the AF department. Currently that means a Z50II, Z5II

High-end crop sensor, i.e. north of $2,000 USD, is a hard sell. Even Fujifilm, the most successful crop sensor vendor, couldn't move X-H2 and X-H2S bodies when all of their other cameras were regularly out of stock. I also think Nikon was pretty successful in moving their higher-end DX DSLR customer

I had the same with one of my Z6III's and my Viltrox 35/F1.2: all settings equal, but closing down the aperture... it resulted in the camera thinking you're closing down the aperture, but you actually don't. Result = overexposure. When I looked at the iris, it seemed to be closing ... slowly... like

Skip the first gen Z6, the Z6II is a bare minimum. But if budget is tight, go for a D750 (FX) or D500 - but the D500 (DX) will tie you to crop lenses, while a full frame (FX) camera will give you the option to use the same lenses on mirrorless (if recent lenses) with the FTZ adapter. Using a Z6 pure

I did, for the optical view finder and to easily swap lenses between my F3. I sold my Nikon Z6ii and picked up a D700 body and it’s been great. All I needed was a decent DSLR body to shoot vintage glass with for my use case.

The difference IMHO is overblown for all but professionals, your skill, luck, good lighting and good lenses will be more important than sensor size. The potential niggle could be astro, but I haven't found any critical issues with noise on my Z50 (same sensor as Z50ii) that makes me want to rush out

Hey, Looking for some advices about some gears. I do mostly photography while traveling. I used to have a Nikon D600 with a 24-85 3.5-5.6 lens that I loved but sold it a few years back. I wanted to get back into photography so I bought a used Nikon Z6 II with two lens : Tamron 16-30 f2.8 and a Nikon

On F-mount cameras, there's always space (be it just few millimeters) between button and body edge. Similarly when you look at Z6 III - button is slightly moved towards body. In contrary Z5/6/7 II has button directly on the edge - perhaps more prone to be pressed when camera bumps to things. I'm una

Honestly, I feel like mirrorless cameras are more about marketing than anything else. I'm a Nikon user, owning a D750, a Df, and a D850. And I was lucky enough to try the Z6ii and the Z50II. But the battery life is truly terrible, the equipment is expensive, using the EVF for many hours damages your

Offering starter kits has been around for decades amongst all brands, that was not a move to correct anything. Before the D3xxx series, they had the D40. Even in film SLR's, you had cheap entry level kits. So did Canon. Sony (and Canon) are solid in the cine & vlogger world. Nikon would need to offe
