Yes, this old man, grumpy post is more sad than insightful.  Sure, a young person's facility with current tech will, in general, outdo a boomer's.  But, that does not make them or what they do ...

I have been following Matt ever since he was That Nikon Guy.  I used to follow Dustin, but I shoot Nikon and he does not test Nikon gear.  His past reviews of f mount third party glass were ...

This seems to be a feature of your Mac, not Macs in general, as adjustments in NX Studio happen nearly instantaneously on mine.  2019 Intel 1 gb ssd.

I never said otherwise. My point was that the op was mistaken when he asserted that shooting high fps is widely looked down upon.  I haven't seen folks in this thread saying high fps is a waste of ...

I don't see any need to justify using high burst rates.  It's not as if camera companies are shying away from making high burst rate capable cameras.  In fact, quite the opposite.  It is all the ...

I don't see what is masochistic about the pleasure of twiddling with knobs.  Unless one has hand pain or blisters.  And, for some, spending time less usefully is what photography is all about. Folk ...

The picture control adjustments are the same as one has in camera.  They are more limited in scope and the effects are more subtle than the adjustments in the ABC section.  I like to view the ...

Having never owned a Df or any camera like the Zf (it does not look like any of the film cameras I have owned), I have yet to learn that lesson! I have been enjoying the use of a sling strap for ...

I have only Nikon gear, too, but see no advantage in looks over Sony or Canon.  The basic reason I am with Nikon is because years ago I bought a Nikon n80 film camera. Replacing a Konica. Konica ...

I don't think I connect beauty and price to complexity.  If I thought the Sony 6400 looked good I wouldn't be concerned that the more expensive Sony had the same basic appearance.  I would expect ...

Some have said performance outranks looks.  I think feel outranks looks.  The feel of the camera in my hands and how I feel when I bring the viewfinder up to my eye.  That felt simpatico between ...

Doesn't the light coming from ovf screen originate in the scene as channeled through the lens?  No matter how imperfectly. So, it is reflected through the screen while the light from the evf ...

How are you defining screen. I think most people are thinking along these lines the surface on which the image appears in an electronic display (as in a television set, radar receiver, or computer ...

I have owned neither camera so can't offer any thoughts about the comparative functionality.   On the other hand, I have seen and handled a Zf and all I can say is Wow, it looks fantastic!  You ...

So, the cost of switching to mirrorless is a, and maybe the, prime obstacle in your making the move. I can afford the move and can lessen the impact by selling my two DSLRs and a few of my FX ...

I am just saying the law was to enable repairs not limit them. Doesn't this only apply to cameras bought and repaired in California? Another factor is the repair records of the different cameras. ...

After they gave me the estimate, I had them return it to me. They did not repair it. The local shop did at half the price. Nikon had the parts. Well, they did the repair and the camera works so ...

I said Nikon gave me an estimate for the repair and I chose to have it done by a local shop. Nikon had the parts. Yes, I feel the same way.

And some people could improve the way they phrase things. For example: For those people who are 'still' using a D500, are you 'even' considering a mirrorless camera. I don't see the need for those ...

It seemed to me that your third question hinted at an agenda.   The idea that a D500 will at some point not be repairable is an oft stated con of keeping a DSLR.  Repeating that as a question does ...
