With lenses, yes. But the cameras & sensors themselves have been great. In the past, Nikon has also had a poor record of supporting mirrorless as well. But I see this changing. Nikon has also ...

As I mentioned in another thread (and here above), I already have m43.  m43 is not the same thing as a Nikon quarter frame sensor.  Turns out more than one company can use a format. Just like Canon ...

That's an interesting point. If they are "clear", they should be sensitive to any frequency, and so wouldn't be limited to detecting AF for subjects of a certain color only--it would essentially be ...

Does this imply that the PDAF pixels are only blue pixels?  Is that standard? Being more 'centered' (and having double the pixel count) I would think that they'd want to pick green, no?

https://www.amazon.com/PANASONIC-12-32mm-Stabilization-Display-DMC-GX85KK/dp/B01DOKHSH0 That camera has: (1) 1-stop slower sensor than APS-C... (2) ...but better lens ...

As I noted in my post above, there are different techniques to counteract this.  Sony probably interpolates the values for these pixels using the surrounding pixels, pre-raw.

I agree. Though I do think there is / will be a need for cameras & systems between phones & full-frame mirrorless. So I would recommend Nikon take an approach of quarter frame. Maybe even do 16x9 ...

I think people often don't think critically or creatively. Even though it's relatively large, the mount really isn't that big in absolute terms. 54mm. That's tiny. My phone's face is 145mm x 70mm. ...

LOL! For the question: essentially, it means that certain rows of pixels (likely the PDAF pixels) have different sensitivity--and that when you take a picture--especially one with completely even ...

I agree with wanting to see more compact lenses as well this (and I also have the existing 50 1.4)... ...but it brings up 2 points: 1)  I think this is a strategic decision.  Nikon is launching ...

Yes I agree with what you're saying.  I tried to check many different sites--including Nikon's own.  Haven't seen anything I'd consider absolutely clear & reliable.  Eg.  is this AF-C or AF-S?  ...

I see.  Then I assume you will not be purchasing the Z7, since the mirrorless system here is more bulky than a D850? In this case, the native lens is adding more bulk and weight than the adapted lens.

Fair enough. There probably is. So why don't we say: (1) bursts will almost certainly be captured at higher shutter speeds, and will almost certainly end up being over ISO 400 800 (at which point 12-bit ...

Medium & Small raw on the Z7 records at 12-bit lossless compressed. Source: (1) https://imaging.nikon.com/lineup/mirrorless/z_7/spec.htm

I may be wrong here too (please correct me), but my understanding of the burst rates: (1) 12 FPS, for 12-bit + autofocus + locked exposure (2) 9 FPS, for ...

That's if you equalize the framing and (can) move closer .  This is out of scope for my statement, because then you don't have "a wider field of view anymore"--something I explicitly stated above. ...

What are you talking about? Who said consumer demand is the sole input on product price? Which 7 or "6th sensor format" are you referring to? Do you realize that those aren't all formats you ...

On which lenses on Nikon's roadmap would you use a TC?

Simple:  our experiences differ because I don't complain that my adapters are too big or heavy.  They are about the size of 2-3 lens caps, and I leave them attached to the camera body or lens, ...
