Thank you for your reply. Will definitely try out focusing at infinity as suggested. Yes, close focusing is definitely strong feature of this lens, which I plan to investigate further. Especially, ...

I finally decided to get M42 adapter for Nikon Z. Finally adapter arrived and I went for a walk yesterday to try it out. It has been a long time since I used manual lens and I find infinity stop ...

I would prefer smaller camera with most photocentric G9 tech. I purchased G9 after owning GX85, which was fine camera, but had worse AF, worse sensor, worse VF etc. Actually for the last year I ...

I believe it has. Even tiny RX100V has it.

I have Nikon Z7 which is probably better compared to G9. Never did comparison, since both are mostly good enough for my 4 and 1 years old. Biggest difference is probably that Z7 is smoother during ...

Thank you for your information. Actually I am also in a process to send camera for inspection/repair, but due to current virus situation, things are little bit complicated.

I have both and when I want more portable package I mount 15 1.7 on camera, when I want advantage of zoom, 12-100 is hard to beat. I use these on Pansonic G9.

I would propose diferent approach. Sell MFT cameras and lenses and get full frame camera with compact zoom lens. For instance Nikon Z6 + 24-70 f4 or newer Z5 with smaller variable zoom. With ...

I am in similar boat. I also have quiet big m4/3 system and purchased Z7 by chance. It was second hand, almost new from disappointed owner with one of early firmware versions. I got it for ...

Mine is same. It is quiet annoying. I did not compare to another one. Otherwise mine work normally since day one. I noticed that I can not hear it when camera is set into video mode and then back ...

I got it 2 dayys ago, and noticed same noise. I am not sure if this is normal or specific cameras (from same production batch) got problematic electronic elemet(s).

To clarify things further, to hear this sound all I have to do is turn on camera. Don't have to operate any button or anything. It sound similar to some in-wall adapters that we use for our ...

can you elaborate more? Not sure if your comment is serious or trying to make a joke? My camera is set to silent operation, it does not produce any sounds or beeps. I set all items in Sound menu ...

I got new X100V yesterday and first impression is very positive regarding functions, operation and AF. Using it with EVF/OVF I noticed audible electric static noise coming from the area of the ...

My fist photo in Z forum: Z7 with Z 50mm 1.8 lens @ F9, ISO64, 1/160 s Took this during saturday hike with my son. Was eying these threes for a week, but always forgot my camera. So, this one was ...

Did you notice that GX85 has crop in 4K? So you don't record whole sensor width. Not sure how much it is, just remember there was crop specified. I used to have GX85, but unfortunatelly never used ...

We are lucky to have possibility to more or less freely walk outside of urban areas. I prefer nature and woods anyway, so no change for me. Only thing is, that now I meet more people, but ...

I had XF10 for about 10 months. I made some fantastic photos with it, but it was almost useless for kid and family outings photography, which is big part of my current photographic life. So ...

Lately I started to use Nikon Z7 more and that is leaving my m4/3 system in a drawer. Sad and unused. I am planing to unload some of my m4/3 stuff, but would like to keep some lenses to pair with ...

Difference in shadows could be due to Active DLighting option setting in photo menu of Z6. I currently have Z7 and G9, but with 3 lenses from Nikon I am mostly happy and carry less stuff than with ...
