I have the same thoughts - I have every CX lens, except the 10-100 PD, V1, V3 and J5 and they don’t get much use…….. apart from the 70-300! A 200-800 equivalent is more than useful, limitations ...

Wow - that’s a really useful update Nikon - thanks for that. Keep that to ourselves - I won’t tell about that, if you don’t ! 🤣

I agree entirely - we all know that Nikon’s last iterations of DSLRs were/are the peak of the technology and there is no way that I would have moved on from my then Df/750/850 if ML didn’t offer ...

Without doubt - an hour really well spent in understanding what the camera is doing. That alone made it worthwhile in that I could make informed mode choices based upon circumstances and not in ...

Entirely agree - I don’t doubt the abilities of a 500/850 etc (I owned an 850) but the negativity around the 6/7 bodies is way overstated - I recall Thom Hogan’s comments even with the V1 firmware ...

Oh boy, another ‘where’s my firmware update?’ whinge (which was never promised) - here’s a novel thought, how about buying a camera on what it will do there and then, not what it might do in the...

Thanks for letting us know. Useful.

Glad you can speak for every wildlife hobbyist out there.
Thanks for letting us know. Useful.

I might finally sell my V3 + CX 70-300 combo now! 🤣🤣

I don’t pretend to understand the mechanics behind the VR systems (body or lens) compared to other systems but just by way of ‘reassurance’, as others have said, it is not exclusive to the Z9 in ...

I’m guessing that irony/sarcasm/satire, deadpan humour etc doesn’t exist in your part of the world? Either that or you’re attempting some kind of double (or is it triple?) deadpan etc etc comment? ...

I came to a Z6II from a 7100 (via a 750/850 and Z6!) ) and I have both the 24-200 and 24-120 f4 I traded in my 24-70 f4 for the latter and you may like to consider that if you can accept the ...

Yes, I have no doubt from all that I have read that the 50-250 is an excellent lens for the money. I’m also of the opinion that the 24-200 is also an excellent lens of its type - a general, ...

Well, of course you’re going to get various opinions based upon nothing more than peoples own personal preferences - and they’ll try and convince you of those! My own take on questions about ...

This lens is constantly at the back of my mind! I bought a Zfc + 28mm saying ‘I’ll never buy a DX lens, I’m happy using my Z FF lenses (and adapted AF-P 70-300) ‘ where the Zfc could be a useful T/C! ...

If I’m being obtuse, (insensitive and slow to understand, lacking intellect etc), which is another personal comment, then perhaps you could give examples where that has been the case?

I wouldn’t drop money on a whim either - where do I give the impression that I did? My whole decision to ditch flapping mirror technology was based upon sound reasoning as to what ML offers and ...

Seems a fair summary of what the lens can do from folk who, y’know, have actually used it! In contrast to the OP my reasons for going Z were camera, rather than lens, based (silent shutter, no AF ...

Others have mentioned that there are some advantages in using DX mode. It isn’t something I do regularly on my Z6II but, if required, I just remind myself that the resolution isn’t a million miles ...

Hello Paul I have never owned a Z50 so I don’t quite fit your ‘entry criteria’ for your question, so apologies but I thought I’d chime in! I think your opening statement that you ‘prefer the form ...
