Some wildlife with the Z50
4 months ago
25
Popped down to the park today for a couple of hours after work. Used my Nikon Z50 and 500mm5.6pf. It is a very lightweight set up. Also 1 photo from yesterday.
Haven't taken many pictures with this camera recently but recently uploaded some pictures from a year ago and I thought I would try the camera out again. I would say definitely the autofocus does seem better for wildlife after the recent firmware update ( about a month ago maybe 1.30 not sure) With human eyes it is definitely MUCH faster as it locks on my kids eyes way quicker than before. Wasn't sure about birds but it does seems more sticky in all modes but especially auto and the subject trracker is more sticky too...still not great for flight shots but pretty good for shoot and recompose situations especially for bigger birds.
Anyway a definite improvement in an already good camera. Anyway here are a few shots.. light wasn't good today so nothing special....the Osprey is a heavy crop. The White-eye from yesterday the light was good but I was still impressed how the Z50 kept up because these birds are tiny and really move fast and constantly. Thanks for looking!

The new Panasonic Leica 9mm F1.7 sure is tiny and cute, but is it a good choice for Micro Four Thirds users? Our team at DPReview TV has the answers.
It says Olympus on the front, but the OM System OM-1 is about the future, not the past. It may still produce 20MP files, but a quad-pixel AF Stacked CMOS sensor, 50 fps shooting with full AF and genuine, IP rated, weather sealing show OM Digital Solutions' ambition. See what we thought.
Is the GH6 the best hybrid camera there is? Jordan has been shooting DPReview TV with the Panasonic GH6 for months, so he has plenty of experience to back up his strong opinions.
DJI's Mini series has always been a great entry-level option for beginners, hobbyists, or those willing to sacrifice features for size. But with its newest model, the Mini 3 Pro, DJI promises to bring pro features to its most compact model. Does it succeed?
After waiting over a year, Chris and Jordan finally had a chance to test the new Canon RF 100mm F2.8 L IS Macro. Is this the macro lens to beat?
