Is the Z5ii really that good, or is it just all hype?

I bought one a few months ago. Very impressed with it. The low-light capability blows away my D850. I took shots of hummingbirds at 10k-40k ISO and with the denoising in Lightroom, they look like butter-no grain, clean. The AF is much better than the Z7ii I used to have (sold it and bought the D850)

Please Nikon make a Z7 III

The Z7 or Z7ii are still a leading class landscape camera. If landscapes are your thing, pick up a used Z7 on Marketplace for cheap. The only disadvantage to the original Z7 has to do with its slower AF and tracking algorithms. You don't need lightning quick AF for landscapes. That being said, how o

Nikkor DX series lens vs lower quality full frame lens?

if you're using a full frame camera, unless you're using one of the higher resolution bodies (z7, z7ii, z8, z9), then i feel it wouldn't make sense to use the dx lens, mainly cos it turns your camera into a 10-12 MP camera (not that it's unusable, but it's quite the crop). Also, I wouldn't necessari

Second lens after 24-120 f4 S

Don’t worry about ISO. Just make sure sure you use the “Camera matching profiles”, I.e “Camera Standard”. People don’t zoom in to look at photo details, only photographers do. VR is very good on the cameras. Unless your subject is moving, you should be able to offset the f/4 with shutter speed. A li

For a Z7iii to ever exist, it needs to be really high res, like at least the 61mp that Sony has. I think it would be cool to get an IQ focused camera as well, like PhaseOne levels of DR while also having a lot of MP but I just don't know if that is possible on the full frame sensor or not...

Wait Nikon z7iii or take Sony A7R V

For pure landscape a Z7 or Z7ii is still absolutely top notch. It's been discussed many times, but I don't think a Z7iii is coming. The Z8 has that covered.

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

For me the Z7ii excels in every aspect except focus. That's the only reason I'd go for a Z7iii over my Z7ii. Better focusing and the pre-release shutter would be nice to have. Aside from that, the Z7ii is the perfect size and weight of mirrorless camera for me. Do I need 45MP? No, but when you put i

Please Nikon make a Z7 III

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

What am I doing wrong, movement on Z7II.

AF-C Also, this is the Achilles heel of the Z7II - gorgeous output, sucks at focusing on dogs running towards you (this is literally how I test AF). It's the dual Expeed 6 - they just can't keep up - and it's why I want an Expeed 7 Z7III (NOT A Z8!!! - I WANT THIS SENSOR). It was a night and day dif
