You are seriously missing something here. You are talking about Nikon Ambassadors. For Nikon to survive they have to transition to ML. Nikon's Ambassadors have to be seen using the Z7ii and Z6ii. ...

Yes, and *this* specific MILC body is the minimum Nikon would need to replace either my D4s, D850 or D500.  *This* one should AF as well as these, something that none of Nikon's current offerings ...

Is it possible that both of you wandered into the wrong place? This is, after all, a gear forum, which typically means gearheads discussing, debating, gear. :)

Thanks for the link. Very interesting. Z9 would almost have to be lighter. And a little smaller.  There are less parts ya know.

As said above - "Looks the size of a DSLR. Wasn't the main selling point of Nikon ML that it was small?" 90% of the fellows here on the Nikon forums had the complaint that Nikon DSLRs were huge ...

Not true.  It's starting to get somewhere near what I would want in a mirrorless camera if I wanted a mirrorless camera. But it flies in the face of all the fellows that raved over the Z7 and Z6 ...

Looks the size of a DSLR.  Wasn't the main selling point of Nikon ML that it was small? But to get a really good one you have to make it big. And lower the bar when creating the D6 to be able to ...

Who do you work for that requires you to be interviewing Nikon pros?? Michelle Valberg is a Canadian Nikon Ambassador that will shoot with whatever Nikon ask her to shoot with. I could do ...

No Z9s hidden there?  They will eventually get there for the reason they have to compete with Sony, and Sony is mirrorless, if for no other reason. However, it’s been a long time getting this far, ...

DPR didn't realize this until after the D5?? Slow crowd.

Excellent! Gentec, who distributes Sigma in Canada operates similarly.  I haven't sent anything for repairs, but they've been quick to answer any questions that I've had over the years.

That's likely your problem.

Only to you and someone else that might skew what I said.

Neither do I.  And I did not suggest that.

Agreed. Very much a second tier camera. And that's not changing. And nothing that's been changed on the D750 with the D780 update brings it any closer to a D850. A D850 is a basically a stills ...

This has been going on for years. He had / has a different username for when he collected Canon gear. I mentioned earlier about a 200 f2 VRII that I bought from a "collector" For him, the camera or ...

My thought is forget worrying about the multiplication factor for the focal length and get your shutter speed up. I rarely shoot any wildlife or BIF less than 1/1600 sec and most times much ...

The vertical AF-ON button on my D4s wouldn’t work  I dropped it in to Nikon in Toronto and they wanted $600 to fix it. I sprayed it with a lubricant called Fluid Film and after a couple of days ...

Let's take all your points 1. The EVF time delay and any blackout is simply related to readout speed, I don't see EVF delay as a problem for me. Even if EVFs are not "there" yet, it will be at some ...

Take a photo and read the exif.  If it says D700 it's a D700.
