Interesting. You and I have followed an almost identical path, right down to the Leading Edge brand and a Timex Sinclair kit.

Finally, a dual pivot screen for those of us who shoot a lot of verticals. It is about time. Now if they would please roll it out on the next Z7. Here's hoping.

You nailed it vockman. For someone who wants to use their images straight out of camera (which would imply JPG), then ADL is a great tool. For everyone else who shoots RAW, ADL doesn't really make ...

The OP has a valid point. There are plenty of places on this planet where haze, humidity, air pollution, etc. reduce the amount of light that makes to the ground. Especially at sea level. And the ...

Indeed! Talk about timing. In a place where the sun shines pretty much every day, most of us welcomed the cooler weather (for just one day). But right in the middle of the event? It got pretty ...

Actually, all 4 of these formats reach right to the edge of the sensor. It is a rather unique arrangement. The format that uses the highest portion of the sensor is actually 1:1 (fewest discarded ...

Oh, you mean like this? As Alan already pointed out, Panasonic/Lumix has been doing this for a while already. I rather like having the capability.

It is not everyday that a world class sporting event shows up in your back yard. But that is what happened to me over the weekend. The world championship triathlon came to St. George, Utah. And ...

Definitely tripod. I carry and use a tripod on all my landscape photoshoots. I like to print large and I want to take advantage of the high resolution offered in the Z7. Hence, tripod is a must. ...

Yes, the 24-200 makes for a pretty good travel lens. I rented one for my recent trip to Italy and took that along with my 14-30 and Z7. Over 90% of my images ended up being taken with the 24-200. ...

I honestly don't think it is shutter shock. I have experienced that with lightweight bodies like my D5500 with a light lens. The Z7 is a much heavier kit. And more importantly, I was still seeing ...

I meant to say my experience with the 24-200 was mixed. My experience with the F 24-120 was solid and very positive.

I photographed extensively with the F 24-120 f/4 on my D800e for several years. I held the lens in high regard and captured many fine images with that combination. I rented the Z 24-200 for my ...

The lake scene is Lago di Braies. If you would like to view my full gallery from Italy, it is available here: https://stevehorne.smugmug.com/Italy/ And here is a portion of my interchange with Thom ...

Nice set of images! I particularly like the village scene of Vens. Very well done. I, too, was in Italy a few weeks ago on vacation. Also with a Z7 + 14-30mm + 24-200mm (rented). I discovered an ...

Cool! I work right across the street.

I grabbed these shots Monday evening on a ridge above a nearby reservoir, Sand Hollow State Park, Utah. Really rough road to get there, but some fun formations.

I picked up a 14-30mm shortly after it was released, and never looked back. It is a little gem of a lens. Even wide open at f/4 the images are impressive. I prefer to shoot it at f/5.6 to f/8 ...

I am a semi-pro and shoot primarily with a Z7. My most used lens is the 24-70mm f/4. It and the 14-30mm f/4 are surprisingly excellent optics. Not quite as good as their outstanding Z f/2.8 ...
