I've had a D3 and D3S before and liked the balance when using them with 'pro' 2.8 zooms. The other camera's that I've used over the the years that did not have a built-in grip, like the D700, D750 ...

I've used the 1st generation AF-S 70-200mm f/2.8 lens with its original lens hood over the years on several full frame DSLR's and the Z6 (1ste version) before switching to the Z-mount version and ...

I might consider buying a full frame fisheye like the Sigma 15mm f/2.8 or the Nikon AF-S Fisheye 8-15mm f/3.5-4.5E ED and use it with the FTZ/FTZII adapter. Reason: Nikon has yet to announce or ...

I was talking about cameras, not lenses.

The Z9 is not the successor to the Z7. Nor is it aimed at the same audience as the Z6/Z7. And I've heard that a completely different group of developers worked on the Z9 that did on the Z6/Z7 ...

I'm not saying that the Z6II or Z7II are crappy cameras. All I'm saying is that Nikon is lagging behind because the competition have upgraded their cameras and Nikon to date has not. Nikon ...

True. But Nikon might surprise us yet with a camera that fulfills (almost) all our demands and wishes in one non-pro body. There were 26 months between the announcement of version 1 and version 2 ...

The Z6II has what is now considered to be a relative low resolution. Especially when compared to the competition. Besides, the image sensor is basically the same (resolution) as in the D750 from ...

I've added some lines in the first photo of in the original post. Lines added to first photo in the original post One pair of lines run from the upper and lower right corners of the photo all the ...

I believe there a a lot of users for whom there cannot be enough custom controls on a camera. The control ring gives them yet another control that they can map to certain functionality of the camera. ...

I am 'all in' the Z system, with a Z body, 3 Z lenses and a Z tele-converter. I don't even have an FTZ or FTZ II adapter anymore.

I've shot with a Z9 and have experienced banding. The Z9 has a automatic flicker reduction that didn't help (much) and the high flicker reduction added since firmware version 3.0 was unusable due ...

The Z7 II also works quite well for concerts (as does a Z9, performing equally well at high ISO's)...

Shot these shortly before Covid hit with the version 1 of the Z6 (didn't have the photos close at hand, so took them from my Facebook page)...

It aged pretty well. A day into CES and there's no news (yet) about a possible new camera. But CES isn't over yet. Nikon might still surprise us all (or not)...

This seems like a lens hood problem. There have been three versions of the 70-200mm f/2.8 zoom: (1) Nikon AF-S Nikkor 70-200mm f/2.8G ED VR (2002) Lens hood: Nikon HB-29

Could it be that the D400 over time became the D300S and that some of its supposed more advanced features were deemed not 'mature' or solid enough that Nikon decided to put more R&D into it and ...

The "middel of December" article that Thom refers to can be found here: https://www.zsystemuser.com/nikon-z-system-news-and/what-will-nikon-introduce.html

It's not that there are actually products 'missing', although the 200-600mm lens that's been on the road map for ages has still net yet been announced. No. It's the fact that the competition has ...
