Why am I not getting that tack sharp focus?

Not sure why nobody has, ahem, focused on the obvious… It focused on his chin. The whiskers are sharper than his eyes. Either you missed the focus area or he moved as the shot was being taken. Are you using AF-S or AF-C? With the d7200 you’re going to need to spot focus on the subject’s eyes, and it

Most photographers don’t need better gear, they need better taste

This is the part I strongly disagree with. The difference is keeper rate and expectations. With a modern higher end mirrorless like Sony a7v Nikon Z6III or something, even a beginner can get like a 40% keeper rate, and a moderately skilled amateur can get into like 70% rate. But if you're shooting a

Red Sprite over Oklahoma 7/24/25

Modern mirrorless cameras can shoot a continuous buffer of images until you as the user see the flash of an event like this. You then press the shutter button all the way down, locking in that moment. You then scroll back through your image buffer to find the exact moment the flash was photographed

Considering the move from Fuji to Nikon as a pro photographer

I went H2 to Z6iii- the biggest thing you will see is that the autofocus with Nikon blows the socks off anything Fuji has. The S line lenses are way better than the red badge XF glass as well. I miss the aperture rings though.

Nikon D850 vs Z6III

I have the exact same setup. D850, D5, Z6iii. Z6iii video is outstanding. I don’t do professional video but the quality is great for home use. For stills, D850 is the best quality. Obvious answer there. Z6iii and D5 are comparable in image quality. I like the D5 autofocus better in fast, crowded env

Reluctant start

Z5ii is the best camera under $2k and the z6iii is the best camera at the next price point up. Nikon struggled for a while, but Expeed 7 is the tits and now that they’ve got subject tracking autofocus nailed down, they are the most well-rounded brand.

Switched From Canon To Nikon, I think I made the right choice.

"....looking on upgrading to the Nikon Z6ii or Z5ii next year." The Z6II will not feel like much of an upgrade. When you do get around to upgrading, don't bother with anything other than an EXPEED 7 body - they are an order of magnitude better in the AF department. Currently that means a Z50II, Z5II

Is Lumix unaware of their pricing issues?

I think it's the z6iii that it's cheap, nikon is getting pretty aggressive with their pricing

Are DSLRs still a thing or has mirrorless pretty much taken over?

With mirrorless, you need to consciously turn them on and off, and there is a noticeable startup time Nikon Z6III starts up in less than a second and I've left it on accidentally more than once for an entire day with no impact on battery at all, it just goes to sleep and there's no difference if it'

Switching to Nikon, pitfalls

As a professional, if your kid is the reason for the BM6K, you’re way overthinking it. Just get good with the Sony, or if you really want to switch (it won’t matter anyway), just get a Z6III and call it a day. You’ll get the “Nikon color”, you get the raw video of the blackmagic, and 24MP is plenty
