I am using ExifTool 11.26 and those items are right. Contrast Detect AF: On (2) AF Area Mode: Single But Phase detect is shown as off in every image I looked at. Most others seems right, but sure, ...

No. The solution is use the right light, or find out the flicker frequency and adjust the shutter speed to that. The "banding" you see can happen regardless which shutter type you are using. It is ...

I don't think anyone can measure focus speed on equal terms, except maybe Nikon. If the Z6 would be better camera for you than the Z7 or not, only you can be the judge of that. In any case "much ...

Why is that? II mean, I understand higher frame rate, less pixels should be faster, but in terms of AF speed performance, why would there be a difference? AF speed depends on the processing, AF ...

Modelling light is NOT auto focus assist light. It can be used, but it is NOT the primary purpose and it actually works differently. The AF assist light turns on or off at need when you half press ...

This thread is about the absence of functionality of the external AF assist light which is built in some flashes. There is nothing you can do about that, regardless which mode you are using, it ...

...like the Z. :-) The N1 started off with a really well made marketing, but then after a while it died out. The Z started off with practically zero marketing campaign. Like the Z, Canon, Sony, or ...

Actually... my Nikon 1 V1 experience made me buy and trust the Z7. I believe that the N1 was the breaking/playing/testing ground for the mirrorless Nikon future. My V1 and all the gear I bougt back ...

IBIS is always engaged (when necessary) assuming VR is on and the lens/camera is not faulty. Otherwise you can see in the EXIF data if VR was on or off, but there is no separate VR and IBIS data ...

This lens I was thinking of, right? I am not familiar with Tamron, perhaps they have other models as well, but to use this one you definitely need the electrical contacts, perhaps you can focus ...

...that would cost him the loss of AF and aperture control also.

Yes, the camera gets information about the lens type, as well as if it has VR or not, and if the VR is on or off. But if the VR motor inside the lens is disabled and the VR lens element is locked ...

...at the 50 second mark. Have also seen it in some Nikon information leaflet or brochure, but can't find it now.

Yes of course they work in tandem. That was not the question.

I think a bigger threat to APS-C and MFT are the mirrorless FF of every possible brand, not the cell phones. After all, larger sensors will ALWAYS make better pictures, and if you can make cameras ...

Smaller than F lenses... of course, the flange distance is different. But could be made even smaller if the lens mouth was not as large as it is.

Highly depending on you, the lens and the situation. Yes, it can make a difference, especially with longer focal length.

E and F are on the recall, and yes, they should be replaced. The recall is still valid and is actually originally from 2012, not 2013, in case someone has those. Nikon updated their information, ...

Yes, MANY did keep their DSLRs but MANY also dumped the bricks and MANY just have it as sort of a safety belt, most of the time collecting dust. I still have an SLR, several film compacts and even ...

You do know that the battery on the right is on the Nikon recall list from 2013, do you? So if it is not been replaced, you should send it to Nikon for a replacement.
