BillyBobSenna: Looks like a great lens to shoot my kids rec soccer games.
I'm looking for a nice starter kit to learn how to use these new-fangled cameras. This lens seems like it would be able to capture the excitement of a U8 soccer game.

I think I saw a Tesla.
Will the optics be good enough to make use of the 50 MP? Even under ideal lighting conditions, I can't imagine having the optical clarity to use 50 MP.
Pseu_Pseu_Pseudonym: This A1 user is jealous.
Yep A1 is old school tech. I’m sure you will be able to buy A1’s on the used market for cheap.
Stefan Hundhammer: I thought this was a photography site.
Did it change?
BillyBobSenna: It's a free service, they can do what they want.
@ hjs_koeln: I think lies can be spread anywhere. Is your thought to control content on all media outlets? Who would the judges be to determine if the content is allowed?

dan_darkroom: I wonder a bit what is the point of the review? Who would buy an expensive performance laptop now - with Alder Lake imminent? Alder Lake should get you a huge performance boost.
I agree, the review is 6-9 months late.
Callus: I'm sorry but all other things aside, how on earth is it possible to design a 17'' laptop that doesn't have a numeric keypad? I can't even call it form over function. It's just .. nonsense
I agree. There is plenty of room on the 17” to have a number pad.
edvard s5: Absurdly big and heavy.
I think you just need to eat more. This way it will seem smaller relative to your body weight.
BillyBobSenna: I ask myself, how happy would I be with a Z9 and adapted lenses. If the answer is I could live with it a couple years, the Z9 makes sense. If not, it may be time to switch brands since I need to sell everything to move to mirrorless anyway.
I wonder how much I could get for a heavily used D500 and D850? $750 total?
@photography-lover I guess the price is about the same as a new D500 and D850. If it replaces both, I guess its a wash. The only issue is I will not have a back-up which was critical to me 1 time in 10 years.
razorfish: It’s good Nikon users are getting a really competitive mirrorless. Of course I’d never consider Nikon or Canon as long as the lens options remain so highly expensive. They need to open to third parties if they want all of us who are non-billionaire enthusiasts.
It looks like a great camera but it does me no good until the tech comes in the form of a $2K body.

@Adam007 The cameras work great however they have several 100K activations each and signs of wear. The shutter on the D500 was replaced by Nikon at 350K. I need to do some research however I have never seen cameras for sale with as much use as my cameras. I also have a 300mm, 24-70mm, 70-200mm, and a 14-24mm. All f2.8. Maybe if I sell everything I could get a Z9 and a 100-400mm.

Costco doesn't have it in stock yet, darn.
whitelens: For a long time I was very insecure and lived in constant fear that Nikon might release a camera that is better than my beloved Sony.
Now since I know that did not happen I can relax and enjoy life again.
And for that, I thank you, Nikon.
(Note: watch for sarcasm in this post)
I just buy one of each so I don't need to be insecure.
Would this be a good upgrade for my D600? Looks cool. Would it be able to shoot my kids playing sports in middle school?
Outstanding. One less reason to round trip into Photoshop. This is a big one for the types of editing I perform. Looking forward to the new Lightroom capability.
p51d007: Cue the "just as good as a d-SLR" articles. ;)
Sorry, until they get AT LEAST an APS-C sensor, not even close.
I have judged several photo contests with outstanding photography. After the judging is over its amazing to find how many of the winners were taken with camera phones. Even low light photography.
