Z 30 Body

The 16-50 collapsible lens is one of the best lenses of any mirrorless system imo. It’s basically an APS-C version of the Panasonic 12-32. Being collapsible, it’s ultra-portable like a prime lens but with a versatile 24-75mm equivalent range. It’s decently sharp too! I love my Z30 despite owning a z

it has the same exact sensor. It doesn't have the same sensor. Although Nikon introduced a 20.9MP sensor in 2017 with the D500, it's undergone two major upgrades since then: the first to the Z30/Z50/Zfc's sensor to add phase detect autofocus and improve readout speed, and again for the Z50II to give

I owned the Sigma 150-600C and used it on the Z8, Zf and Z50ii. Optically it's very good, basically so close as to be negligible in difference to the new 180-600, the mids and corners are a little softer, nothing crazy. The 180-600 improves with all the other stuff, motor, VR is much more, internal

Nikon was selling a refurbished Z30 with a kit lens for $399. This camera is tiny but will outperform any DX-size DSLR Nikon ever made. If you want, you can use your old F-mount lens if you buy the ZTZ for $100 (used). Shooting with only an LCD screen will horrify all the grumpy old men on the forum

Do you have any other cameras? I find having a dedicated monochrome camera is like a dedicated anything. You are in the right headspace for it. And that is transformative for how you approach photography and train your eye. However, having that color camera is there if you aren't trying to work for

Refurbished options that come with a short, usually extendable, warranty, but nothing new out of Nikon with a flipping screen and a flash at $700 or less. The closest is the Coolpix P950 at $750. Though it's party trick is a ton of zoom, not so much on the image quality front. The Z30 with 16-50 len

I had a Coolpix A, Ricoh GRiii, GRiiix, GRiv, Nikon 1 J5, and Z30. I really liked the J5 with 10/2.8 and 18.5/1.8. Quick, compact, and great image quality in good light. Pretty lackluster indoors at iso 3200. In reality, the Z30 is a much better camera, with better lens options, marginally larger, a

We're at least 18 months from a next-gen Zf, the Z9 and Z8 refreshes need to happen first. Could Nikon do something other than a straight refresh? Sure, some folks (including me) would love to see a Zf variant with the 45MP Z7ii sensor (as the regular Zf uses the Z6ii sensor). But that would end up

My everyday carry camera is Nikon Z30 with 24 f/1.7. Compact and easy to carry literally everywhere. Never leave home without it. I carry my D850/D5/F5 when I’m going out to take pictures.

I agree with others that having people use the camera they're familiar with (i.e., their smartphones) and emailing or dropping those images into a shared folder is your safest bet. For a shared camera, I would get something with fewer exposed features, less tedious controls, better battery life, and
