Tim Cook (Apple) has enough leverage to enforce high quality standards (and so did my employer) - billion-dollar contracts get people's attention -  no one wants to lose a customer that big and ...

Because I've worked with Chinese manufacturers before.  (I used to work for a US subsidiary of a major European consumer and industrial technology company, and we did manufacturing and set up ...

I heard back from Zhiyun . . . Hello, That is your computer system compatibility problem, we just used our computer Windows 7 to upgrade Crane 2 firmware, everything is normal.

Your link says $279 (regularly $379) It looks like a knock-off of a Zhiyun Crane or a Gudsen Moza. I recently got a Crane 2. All these Chinese gimbal makers make products that are very similar in ...

I didn't see where the OP said what software he was using.

"This is a marathon, not a sprint." I live near the route of the Boston Marathon.  This may be a marathon, but if is is then we're not in Hopkinton, we're at Chestnut Hill.

Your whole post is hyperbolic... "With the best dslr's , an incredible broad F lens line working perfectly on both F as Z mount ," I have the Z7 and 14 F-mount lenses.   My F-mount lenses don't ...

I'm not counting the stuff that's made by Panasonic, Sigma, Huawei, and Minolta, etc, with a Leica marque on it.  Leica is famous for partnering with outside companies if it allows them to cash-in ...

Full-frame sensors aren't going away - there will always be professionals and someon e has to supply gear to professionals and really serious amateurs. Why not just do that? Professionals will pay ...

That just means they'll make some adjustments to bring costs more into line with business reality. Stuff like not wasting money on developing $8000 f/0.95 showboat lenses and deciding how many ...

I'm assembling a SmallRig setup now and I was wondering why NATO rails are called that?   I used to think it had something to do with the NATO accessory rail (NAR, Stanag 4694) specified by the ...

Good grief. All this doom and gloom is baseless. I've been using interchangable lens cameras since the 1960's (Pentax H1a) . In those days ILCs were only used by a few nerdy geeks. When I was ...

If I had to guess, your Crane has to be in a specific mode or state to upgrade the firmware . Either off or on, or some other settings. Depending on the mode it may give you a different driver. ...

While investigating https://www.dpreview.com/forums/post/63342303 I determined that the problem with Zhiyun Gimbal Tools was reproducible on Windows 7, but that it seemed to work fine on Windows ...

Which camera is that?   The D5 is 0 - 40 C

The D5 is supposedly a pro product but it's also 0C - 40C.

I'll be interested to hear the answer to this.  I had no trouble with my D800 and D810 in Antarctica, but I was there in the S. Hemisphere summer and it never went below 20F. But this February I'm ...

I have the Atomos Ninja V.  I've only had it a short time but so far it's got along very well with my Z7.

I don't want to wait until 2021.  I have 4 trips planned in 2020 where a good walking around lens would be very useful.  It pi**es me off that Nikon wasted R&D resources on that f/0.95 showboat ...

I want a walking around lens for travel.   A 24-120 f/4 or something like that, in a Z mount so I don't have the extra bulk and weight of the FTZ.
