Recomendation for beginners

Okay, so a couple of things That is absolutely the right camera to start learning photography - good job. Until the Z50II came out I always recommended the ZFc but for various reasons the Z50II is now the better choice Don't buy new. See if Nikon has that exact gear available refurbished at a discou

I wish they made a black OM-3, this is what it would look like.

every camera that has any aspiration in being a retro body should be available in both silver and black, as both silver and black film cameras were generally available. Fujifilm undestood the assignment, all of their retro bodies come in either black or silver (if not more). But both OM and Nikon re

OM System Now Majority Owned By Former Olympus Camera Division Lead

The big one is that the Continuous AF with Tracking is nowhere near as good as Nikon 3D Tracking, and you can't set it to "any subject detect" like the Nikons. Then other things like you can't re-center the focus point by long-pressing "OK" unless you have moved it recently and it is active. Punch-i

Looking to upgrade.

Nikon Z50 II and with an FTZ ... Nikkor 18-140 mm f/3.5-5.6, Nikkor 70-300 mm f/4.5-6.3, Nikkor 50 mm f/1.8G, Tokina 10-20 mm f/2.8G I mean, you can do that, but I wouldn't. Simply put, the new 16-50, 18-140, 50-250, and all wide angle options put the older F-mount lenses to shame. An FTZ is an expe

Just upgraded my Z50 to a Z50II.

I sold my Z50 and Zfc, bought the Z50II body as soon as it was available. The amount of customization is worth the upgrade by itself, let alone EXPEED7 improvement. I have mine set up virtually identical to my Z8. I wish Nikon had an f/4 16-80 zoom.

Snapbridge app, does it work seamlessly now in 2025? About to buy my first Nikon.

The Z50/Zfc/Z30 all have EXPEED6, which was released in 2018. It was behind the times in 2018, and although Nikon did a lot to make EXPEED6 cameras less awful than they were at release, they're still "usable" at best. EXPEED7, on the other hand, is competitive with Sony and Canon today. Unless you'r

Can you shoot with film recipes on Nikon Zfc? Thoughts on the Zfc?

-EVF -Fully articulating screen -Flash -Film simulation in camera (less work in post) -Vintage/ retro camera design That's a long list, but due to the vintage/retro design that limits it to three Nikons: Df, Zfc, and Zf. The EVF and articulating screen limit it to the last two, and none of them have

Hot take-Most photographers can live without Aperture and MF rings

Most of my lenses don’t have an aperture ring, it depends on the camera I’m using. On my Sony a7riv, I don’t need an aperture ring because I have a bunch of dials to use. On my Nikon zfc i much prefer an aperture ring because it’s much more comfortable. As for Manual focus, I only use it when doing

Am i crazy for wanting a zf so badly when the z6iii is available for pretty much the same price?

Yeah I'm confused, having less grip makes it more usable? It's fine if you like the zf lots of people do, but it's definitely not smaller than most bodies these days. E: if Nikon gets a full frame sensor into the zfc body I will switch in a heartbeat btw

what would be a good compact photo-camera for €500-€700?

A mirrorless camera should outperform a compact because it'll have a physically bigger sensor, plus you can choose what lens you want - in your case, some sort of wide angle. You'll be looking at older mirrorless cameras within your budget, but basically any camera made in the last 10ish years shoul
