What am I doing wrong, movement on Z7II.
It's absolutely possible to shoot movement on the Z7ii, just not super easy. I treated it like a decent DSLR rather than a mirrorless. I had most luck using the expanded single point (the one that looks like a single point with 9 dots around it) and doing my best to keep my subject centred. I did pr

Finally making the switch! DSLR ---> Mirrorless
Z5ii unless you’re planning to do lots of video, in which case Z6iii. Z5ii and Z6iii have the newer EXPEED 7 processor and have much better autofocus as a result than Z6ii or Z7ii. Z5ii has more dynamic range than Z6iii under ISO 800 (they’re about the same above ISO 800). Z6iii is much more capable

This should have been impossible while using z6ii if you listen to YouTubers lol
As someone with two Expeed 6 bodies (Z50, Z7ii) which I used for years before getting my Z9...it's not impossible, but you're going to work much much much harder for those BIF shots than with the newer processor. I should know, because I spent years with the Z50 and Z7ii, and especially for birds th

Nikon Autofocus quality? Z5II,6III or 7II
Anything but the z7ii. I find it’s great on a tripod but recently shot a wedding and found it losing/missing focus a lot..

Z7 II vs Z8 real life differences?
I went from z7ii, sitting still subjects and about 80% of my photos max were useable in focus on the eye or what I wanted it to be. Same circumstances on the z8 I’m at 99% in focus on the eye or what I wanted keeper rate. There z8 is just amazing.

Stay with DSLR or go Mirrorless: That is the question
The z7ii is not a replacement to the D850 as the D850’s tracking ability for moving subjects is better. The z6iii tracking ability is on par or better that the D850 but you take a loss in resolution. You can use your current lenses with the mirrorless body without penalty. If you are wanting to get

I always tought my Z6ii was enough..until i brought my Zf to the Track!
I had to shoot an Indy race for assignment one time and i had a d850 and z7ii. My goodness I hated the z7ii so badly, the D850 became my main body for that entire weekend. When I got a Z9 for a follow up race, my goodness that was a night and day difference... And the zero black out EVF allowed to m

Is the z7ii at all useful for wildlife photography?
Can it be used for wildlife? Yes. Will it struggle to catch focus on moving subjects? Also yes. People have taken excellent wildlife photos on cameras far less capable than the Z7ii, so it's by no means incapable of being a wildlife camera, but you will notice that it struggles with the speed and ac

Nikon Autofocus quality? Z5II,6III or 7II
I do a decent amount of event coverage in lowlight settings. The Z6III is a great performer and I’ve been able to get very detailed shots shooting at even 12,800 ISO. Autofocus wise, it performs great. I would say it’s 98% of Sony’s, but with more customization available in the controls/menus. Z5II

So Long to the Z7 Platform?
To me the D750 was perfect and I wish I hadn’t traded it in to buy the Z7II. Got so many great images and years from it with our kids growing up. I actually used the built in flash too. I almost immediately traded up to the Z8 when Nikon had a promotion because the AF on the Z7II was so frustrating.
