Thanks once again for the passionate dedication! Jim, I would welcome your comparative comments on these numbers. You have more experience than most... Andrew

Testing is important. Not all VR systems are alike and that includes different Nikon lenses with VR.

Smart call! I'll wait a bit longer but the Z6 is looking very good :-)

The 300PF is so light... so little mass to push back. I can hold my Tamron 150-600 Gen 2 steadier at 300mm than the PF. Of course, it could be just me :-)

I have one of the lenses but no Z-mount camera... :-(

A Z7 back-up? :-D

I think Nikon "gets it". Getting it, planning it and executing it are a different matter. Especially when in the final year of a major restructuring... This from the Nikon Annual Report 2018 Strate ...

Thanks, Jim. Couldn't see the wood... :-)

I think it is motion blur. Typically, I would try for at least 1/1500 second in this situation to be sure. The bird may not be moving fast... but how good can one be panning with the wings? Cheers, ...

Any idea what might happen if "focus" mode was used in AF-C instead of release? That is my preferred option on my now obsolete D850 ;-) Cheers, Andrew

Thanks. I have already seen the existing thread and I admire Mark's work. :-) The point I was making is that links to reviews, etc should have the courtesy of the name of the link site. I believe ...

Who is the photographer? I do not click on blind links...

Now I am more confused. I thought Brad did wildlife etc. In the 8 points for the Z7and the 2 for the D850 I didn't see anything about either long lens work or AF-C tracking. I agree with Brad's ...

Canon, as overall market leader, followed Sony's lead with a tentative opening jab that stung. Nikon, as overall #2 and losing share, responded to Sony with a more definitive one-two counter punch ...

The Z-mount "sports model" MILC will have great AF and tracking. It will be launched in time for the Tokyo Olympics starting in July 2020. Expect the D6 DSLR before the same event. Just how those ...

Sure helps with planning :-O

Some buy in because of support and the overall business case. That may explain why Canon has half the total market and more than half of the professional market without the benefit of the best ...

They say patience is a virtue... I'll give it my best shot :-D

Jim, your post should be essential reading for everyone interested in the MILC/DSLR debate. Thank you for the professionalism, dedication and time to put it together. I'm glad you compared to the ...

JIm, I am confused. Are you suggesting that the autofocus accuracy of the Z7 is "off-the-charts" better than a D5? If so, in what situations? Thanks, Andrew
