Z30 to Z50ii big enough upgrade?

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

Camera for low light/indoors?

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 the third party grips for the Zf completely make up for the ergonomic deficiency in the body or are users still making a compromise to get that vintage feel?

The ZFc is frankly not good value unless you buy used and know what you’re getting into. The ZF is a capable full-frame camera in a Fujifilm-esque body. The ZFc is a Nikon Z30 shoved inside a smaller version of the ZF. You get a nice looking metal body (albeit with a cheap feeling plasticky coating)

I'm planning on buying D3300 for bird photography. Is it a good choice? Also some cheap lens advice would be much appreciated.

Have you considered a Nikon Z30? They go for crazy cheap on the used market, at least in America. I got mine for $400 with a lens, but I’ve seen them go for as little as $300. Really, any mirrorless Nikon would be a massive upgrade over a D3300, and you’ll want modern autofocus for wildlife photogra

Tips für Neueinsteiger

Die Nikon Z30 ist weitaus moderner als die alpha 6000 und hat entsprechend modernere Specs und auch Fähigkeiten beim Autofokus. Die Fujifilm X-T10 und X-T20 sind auf der anderen Seite interessant da sie mit Fujifilms Filmsimulationen kommen. Dh. du kannst da schon direkt in der Kamera eine Menge an

Nikon Z5 II Vs Z50 II

I owned a z30 before I bought my z5 II and having to rely on lens vr and digital stabilisation was a little bit limiting on lens choice and tracking since more movement would compromise both these counter measures. I do prefer the wider fov of ff as well as the ibis since I don’t think Nikon Sony or

Low light photography?

Your main issue isn’t the Z30, it’s low light + autofocus limits + movement. First thing: in dark scenes, autofocus struggles because there’s not enough contrast. That’s why it feels like it’s “not focusing.” Try switching to manual focus and using focus peaking. It’s way more reliable in abandoned/

The F100 is my favourite Nikon of all time

I have an N90 and would agree with you. It is not much different from an F100, and I think it is the best of the Nikon film cameras. OK, there was an F6, but the price is silly-stupid, and it is not different enough from the N90. (and it uses the exact same sensor) What you find with a new digital c

350$ Nikon Coolpix A or 810$ Ricoh GR 3

The Ricoh is technically a better camera. Better autofocus (but not significantly so), more MP, IBIS, WiFi. It’s also easy to open up yourself and clean the dirty sensor. The real winner is that the arch has better manual focus and zone focus assist features. The Coolpix A is a solid performer, offe
