I’m traveling and don’t have my Z7 with me so cannot absolutely verify this, but I don’t think that is correct. The camera will use the shutter speed you set in S or M exposure modes, or choose ...

I’m on my way to Taiwan in the morning and will go hiking there. I have the 24-70/4, the 24-120, and the 24-200. I packed the 24-200 because it is very good and has great range for its size and ...

Now you know what percentage of respondents read the messages they are responding to. I wouldn’t put much credence in the number that person gave you. We have seen many posts here with outlandish ...

The question is not relevant, because an f/1.4 lens set to f/11 still AFs at f/5.6.

If by “tiny apertures” you mean smaller than f/5.6, that is not a problem because as several here have pointed out, if you set an aperture smaller than f/5.6 the cameras only stop down to f/5.6 to ...

If I understand correctly, the AF system in a DSLR is underneath the mirror so at least that area of the mirror is not fully silvered. However, the silver coating still will steal light from the ...

I think that your NPS colleagues not answering after weeks of waiting should tell you something: this is not something you need to worry about. As others have replied, AF on all Z bodies works the ...

Defective? I don't agree with you. Assuming you're still reading ... I have a Z7 I bought in March 2019 and have used all over the world since. I have a Z8 I bought the day it was first shipped and ...

The problem is, to my knowledge the only way to check the shutter count is to take a picture, then look at the EXIF data. Then the shutter count won't be zero anymore. And we've already discussed ...

Good ideas, but I think the only way to check the shutter count is to take a picture - and then the shutter count is no longer zero. The battery may also not be charged (if I remember correctly ...

I doubt that is the case. The OP is in Sweden. The handwriting on the repair note is "Ilmar," a Swedish-sounding name. The dealer likely returned this camera unopened under the service advisories, ...

If the store returned the camera because it was subject to the service advisories, and then it was repaired, Nikon's message when you subsequently plug in the serial number is "this camera is not ...

If I remember correctly, my Z8 was not packed like that. It was in a plastic bag, not bubble wrap, and it looked like a factory fresh boxed camera. What you illustrate there is not a factory-fresh ...

I didn’t realize it was that much bigger.

You can get the Z8 grip for $350. If you don't want the extra bulk and weight of an integrated grip you can get essentially the same camera (except not having two CFe slots) in the Z8 for a lot ...

It's not a zoom ... it's a prime lens. 1,500mm.

Dual-tilting monitor so I can use it for low-angle portrait shots.

Have you used the combo on your Z7? Whatever it is on that body, it will be better on the Z8. Others say that the D500 is the best still, others say the Z9 equals it (and the Z8 has the same AF ...

Meh - I used that on my Z7 for quite some time and it worked fine. AF was as good with the TC14iii, I felt, as it was just with the bare lens. The stop of light loss didn't make any difference. ...

I've read LOTS of posts in this forum where the OP wrote one thing but meant something completely different. I'm not sure why you are concerned that I wanted to clarify that for him.
