From Z6 to D750: dumbest move ever?

That's exactly what I did with my Z6. The Z 40mm f/2 is the only Z lens that I kept because it's both cheap, good and small. But Z cameras have advantages over D bodies. The First one is obviously stuff like goof live view AF that you don't get on any Nikon DSLR save for the D780. The other is IBIS,

Long lenses

I've used all the lenses in question for a long time and I primarily shoot birds. Most people should get the 180-600. It is ridiculously sharp even at 600/6.3, well priced, covers a wide range, has a super short zoom ring throw, has a good MFD, excellent VR, and solves every complaint people had wit

Nikon Z6iii vs Nikon D850 vs Nikon D780 for Military Use

I understand. I just upgraded to the Z6iii from a D800. I compared the D850 and rented it but decided to go with the z6iii. The D850 is still a great camera but it’s old technology that is getting older by the day. The image processor on the z6iii is 2 generations newer than the D850. It has higher

Camera for combat photography?

I've been a newspaper photographer for nearly 40 years, and spent a few years covering conflicts in South Africa back in the 90's. I'm kind of semi retired at the moment, but this is my experience. If you're not using a full frame camera, you might as well just shoot everything with an iPhone Pro. I

Talk me out of a Z7.

So I come from a unique perspective, where I did the same thing 5 years ago, except I went from an E-m1II + E-M1X to a Z9 and Z6. Had all the 1.2 Pro lenses too, like it was balls-deep-peak-Olympus. What I learned, was no matter what you get in Nikon-land, it’s going to be better than an E-M1II, whi

Looking for (relatively) unbiased comparisons from Fuji X/GFX users that moved to the z range

Hi, I came from an XT-5 myself (having an Xt-3 before), going to a z8, and I have made several comparisons on reddit over the past 2 ish years detailing the difference between the two. I have also shot a Zf, z6, and z6iii. Here are my findings: Pro Nikon: Fuji build quality is in the toilet, in my o

Is the Z6III right for me?

TL;DR: If you’re coming from a Canon T7 and want pro-level autofocus without the $2,500+ price tag of a Z6 III or A7 IV, the Nikon Z5 II is the move. 1.Better "Brains" than Sony (The AF Argument) While Sony has historically led the AF game, the Z5 II inherited the EXPEED 7 processor from the flagshi

I am switching

Well, you have a 20 year old 6 megapixel camera. There are a LOT of better cameras out there. If you want to stay with the f-mount lenses, I would recommend a D7XXX series. Heck, even D3000 would be a huge step up for you. If you want to move into the mirror-less world (and want to stick with Nikon)

Having issues with IR photography on Z6-II

I have an original Z6 along with a full-spectrum converted Z5 for IR photography. To convert it to full spectrum, they removed the hot mirror in front of the sensor. The difference in IR sensitivity between the two cameras is huge. If you haven't had the camera full spectrum converted, there is no w

Now is the time to hold Nikon accountable for the third party lens situation

You can vote with your wallet. I owed solely Nikon cameras my whole life and enjoyed every single one of them, but i only can choose between the (overpriced) nikon 1st party lenses and a few Tamron lenses that don't overlap the focal lengths of the Nikon lenses, I'm switching to Sony or another comp
