When I first got into SLR photography, my lenses were all primes.  Then one day I was out trying to take photos at Kew gardens, accompanied by my wife and two young children, one of whom was an ...

So, looking the at specs for the Tamron 50 - 400 f/4.5-6.3, that lens is just 183.4mm (7.2 in) long (in Sony mount - it would be 2mm longer in Nikon Z mount, i.e. 185.4mm (7.3in) long) and ...

j2daV is correct. I experienced it on my Z6 ii with the silent shutter activated in my early days of using it. I used some pretty laborious editing to fix a number of important images that had been ...

Big opportunity for you to clarify in your forthcoming  guide book on the Zf!

From Managarm's description, the way Auto ISO works when the ISO dial is higher than the Max Sensitivity set in the menu would suit me very well. Can you describe how you would expect Auto-ISO to ...

Well spotted!  When I look at the Camera Labs site, it still shows as 'review so far'...

See this write-up on the Z8 by RC Jenkins. About half-way down is the answer... https://nikonrumors.com/2023/06/16/i-shot-the-nikon-z8-but-i-did-not-shoot-the-deputy.aspx/ It is a great review of ...

Looking at Ricci's initial Youtube video review of the 180-600, he compares it with a number of other Nikon telephoto options. At 22:08 there's a side-by-side of the 180-600 at 600mm against the ...

The announcement of the Z 180-600 at $1,699 brings a new dimension to the discussions.

Thom Hogan has reviewed essentially all the Z telephoto options. This article summarises his findings. https://www.zsystemuser.com/z-mount-lenses/nikkor-lenses/z-mount-lens-articles/best-telephoto- ...

Interesting comparison. I decided to put the ePhotozine test results for both lenses side by side. Not only is the 12-28mm significantly sharper in the centre across the directly comparable focal ...

I have been thinking along the same lines in terms of how long I would use a Z8. If a z8 could last one a decade, that is just over £1 per day (I'm based in the UK), or less than 100 Rupees a day ...

Thanks, impressive research on your part to find that!

bobn2 is on dprevived.

Hi 24Peter, Out of curiosity I checked Adorama, Nikon USA and also B&H for the Z30/12-28 zoom lens bundle you mentioned, without success. Was it a short-lived offer; are you able to see it still?

I did wonder if you already knew that about the Z8 after I'd posted my contribution...  (You often seem to be well-informed about Nikon product developments.)

According to the latest Nikon Rumors post, the Z8 will be able to copy files to an external device via the USB-C connector. https://nikonrumors.com/2023/05/02/nikon-z8-vs-nikon-z9-specifications-co ...

LOL!!!

OK, I accept your point that the Flash button is missing... Odd.

While there doesn't seem to be a single image of the Z9 at the same angle as in the NR image of the Z8, if you take a look at the available images of he Z9 and look carefully at the dial on the ...
