Regardless of weather sealing, condensation can happen and then freeze. This occurs when equipment is taken from a warm place to a cold place too quickly.  Ironically, one  my most memorable ...

Been a while since I was there, but the Sumo wrestler training facility is interesting.  I prefer the countryside to the city.  Take beer.

I have a D810 and was considering upgrading to D850.   I have held off to see the mirrorless  cameras.  I have come to believe that the Z7 will exceed my needs in all  but  AF.  I have waited this ...

Thanks to commiebiker and akmtshun doe posting real pictures.  They were great to see.  I particularly like the photo of the Bullet Train.  Many years ago, I was in the US Air Force stationed in ...

where are the photos?  Have only seen a few posts with example photos.  Most of the serious ones have been terrific, but seems we should be seeing more

I have the 800mm lens, but not the camera.  If anyone in the Seattle area has the camera and curiosity, lets get together.  I would like to find out.

My post was partly reality ad partly sarcasm. I have not seen any stunning BIF shots yet, even for the easier subjects. I know the varying levels of challenge of BIF photos, but have not seen the ...

When we start seeing postings with great BIF photos from the Z7, we will know it is good for BIF.

Great photos! where's the banding? Thanks for sharing.  Good to see some real photos after all the weeks of reading about spec sheets  and speculation.

Doesn't really sound like it, but you should check for exposure bracketing unintentionally on.

Interesting story!  I may have made the wrong decision, but I would like to be confident that the next camera is an improvement in important ways  over the last one.  Since my priorities are ...

I was number 2 on the peorder  list at Glazer's in Seattle.  They called on Thursday and said that they had a camera for me with adapter.   Unfortunately, I am very busy building a new house and ...

Auto focus equivalent to D850.  The rest of the camera seems to meet my needs (based upon  pecs, not product observation).

Thanks two all for the comments.  I thought the first photo was interesting for several reasons.  The size difference was an interesting tension.  The bow showed respect between teacher and ...

I use ACR version 6(not Cloud).  I recall that if you use a binary editor to change the source model in the raw file, ACR will process a D850 file thinking it to be a D810 file.  I did get a ...

My wife asked me if I wanted a drone.  I told her no.  She and our children got one for me anyway(It was a birthday ending in 0).  It is a Phantom 4, a really nice machine.  I can control its ...

Yes, that's me in the mirror.

I attended my grandson's Tai Kwando evaluation for the orange belt. He is 5. The P7800 is not exactly an action camera, so the board picture took some planning and anticipation.

It seems that when there are numerous responses with quotes, what follows is argumentation  rather than information.  I seen threads deteriorate into acrimony when this starts.

I just ant autofocus at an equivalent level with  the D850.  After all the discussion and limited use reporting, I do not know where theZ7 is at with AF.
