Z 7II

If you have already made up your mind to continue with film, I’d have them give me the Z7II. It’s worth more, and when you resell it, the extra money will help you get to the F6 faster. I would like to make a suggestion; why don’t you bang a couple of frames off and give the new camera a chance? You

Don't repair it. Try to get something with the expeed 7 processor (Z50ii, Z5ii, Zf, Z6iii, Z8, Z9). If these were out of my budget, I would stick with the first generation mirrorless bodies (Z5, Z6, Z7). You can find very good deals for those. The Z6ii, Z7ii are only worth the price difference if yo

They don’t share a sensor. The Z8 has a stacked sensor with a higher readout speed and no shutter paired to an Expeed 7 processor. It’s a Z9 in almost every way except for the grip and a few other niceties. The Z7ii has a BSI sensor (non-stacked), shutter, and 2x Expeed6 processors. It’s also physic

1.5x isn't necessarily how it works when comparing sensor sizes if the megapixels are vastly different due to pixel pitches. The z7ii has a pixel pitch of 4.35 um while the z50ii has a pixel pitch of 4.22 um. For reference the z6iii has a pixel pitch of 5.94 um. This translates into a pixel on the z

I’d be interested in a Z7iii too, but I doubt we’ll ever see one for the reasons already mentioned in this thread. That said, maybe your “pure photo” camera is already here in the Z7ii. I know—the autofocus isn’t as good as what you get with the Z6iii, and it lacks many of the newer Expeed 7 feature

For the same reason Samsungs and Pixels now follow Apples lead of 7 years of software updates. It makes the devices look less of an upgrade cycle and more of a life cycle. My Sony never got anything close to this level of support and was a big reason I went to Nikon this time last year. I'm on my th

Personally I'd go for the Z5II just for the AF, especially for using F mount lenses with the FTZ as the difference is even bigger there. But I think your use cases are the only use cases that the Z7II may at least be as good if not better. So it depends on whether you're looking to branch out from y

Size wise the z6iii is more carryable than the z8 (I have z7ii & z8). I like the bigger images the z8 gets me and carry it everywhere over the z7ii. Most of my pictures I either print (running out of wall space!) or display on a digital picture frame at 1920x1080 pixels so cropping is something I’m

The Zf is the better camera in most situations. Yes the Z7ii has a higher MP sensor so if you need that, it’s a good option. But in the digital world, megapixels aren’t everything even if marketing pushes people to get the higher about. 24mp is more than enough in so many circumstances, both hobbyis

I was an early adopter of the Z7 and ran it alongside the d850 until I got a z7ii. Even if it was marketed as a d850 replacement (due only to resolution), it was immediately obvious it was more of a d7xx series camera. I suspect there was an attempt to “line match” the d series at some point, before
