Right now, I think the combination of any Z camera, with any High end Dslr, is a good kit to have. I use the same combo of D500, and Z 6, with a mix of F mount and Z mount lenses, and the FTZ, of ...

I have the Z 6 with the Slide Lite. Everything that could touch the Screen is plastic. I do have the latest versions of the PD. I fail to see the issue. I think the chances of plastic scratching ...

In a nutshell: lighter, smaller, GAS. But stayed for the lenses, the EVF.

I don't consider compatibility to be limited in that circumstance. Yes, you do not get IBIS in the z 50, but that does not make a lens like the 85 less compatible. It will still function fully as ...

I live in the States, so all I can comment on is Roberts, and even that is based on one experience, several years ago. I wanted the D3 so badly, that I couldnt wait for my usual sources to have ...

MY VOTE GOES TO THE SB500. It is  a commander or slave flash; rotates and elevates; and has a LED for video. Its more powerful than the pop up flashes on a lot of DSLRs, but small enough to fit ...

The Z 6. Besides being a great camera with better video than the Z 7, better low light capability faster burst speed, exact same UI, and stills that are hard to tell the difference in detail with ...

I'm starting to feel the same way as you. I understood that CoVID-19 had an effect on production. But now I'm starting to wonder if Nikon has the funds or credit to finance production. I guess its ...

I traded in my Af-s 28-70 f2.8d. I miss it. I had it for close to 20 years and it never failed me. It had the krinkly skin that Nikon used on their pro lenses.

I wouldn't use it if I was being paid to do a wedding. I like primes for that purpose, sp while I use a 70-200 2.8, it spends more time in the bag than on a camera. The 24-200, is of unknown ...

I have that same feeling, but I don't know if its true or if Nikon's plan is just different from Canon's. Canon has some pretty nicely spec'd lenses. They primarily are designed for the pro or for ...

Why don't you just get a Fujifilm X100f (older than the V,  but still available), for almost the same price as the Z 50 + lens? Rich Rosen https://www.flickr.com/photos/richardrosenphotography

I gave up my D810 to get a Z 6. Don't regret it. But the D 810 was no longer being produced. The D850 is not only current, but considered by many to be the finest DSLR ever made. But if you're not ...

Among some other iconic Nikon traits, controls and user interface is legendary (a bit much). One can trace the evolution of the current Nikon control through the F401thru the f90 (N90); which is ...

I have two F mount telephoto,  Both are Zooms. Neither one of them are $1K new, Chances are used models, depending on the edition, can be gotten for a K or less. My favorite is the Sigma 120-300 ...

I thought the price of the 14-30 was little high as well, when I bought it. It's a really good lens , however. We're paying for the lens and the auto correction firmware, which gives us less ...

no interest have 1.8 no interest, have 14-30 Strong interest...up $500 Same as 28 No interest Strong interest....up to $900 Strong interest for f4 constant. If as good as 24-70 f4 , trade that in ...

Perhaps. Things change, especially if there is no money being made.

I think we have to wait...perhaps a long time, for either the 28 or 40 pancake. The bottom has dropped out of the camera market, and CoVID-19 has put the kabash on whatever market was still alive.

There are some factors, that are interesting about these cameras. The retail price of the M6II is $799 US. That is without the EVF which is an accessory. The Nikon is $856, but has the EVF built ...
