Despite others I still reach for a Z30.

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

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

Thinking about switching to monochrome.

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

Digital Camera with Flip Screen Recommendations

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

Thinking of getting an everyday carry snapshot camera.

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

To the people that say “never leave home without my camera” what do you mean?

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.

Camera for low light/indoors?

The FTZ really does not add bulk compared to using the same lens on a DSLR. With a native Z-mount lens, the length is in the lens itself. But with F-mount, the length is in the mirror box. Measuring from the filter ring to the sensor, it is about the same. Yes, "about," not the same. The F-mount len

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

Nikon d7500

Yes it is good if you accept it doesn't have EVF. EVF is usefull for shot outdoor under bright sun. Used Z30 and Z50 have similiar prices. Better get Z50. https://cameradecision.com/compare/Nikon-Z30-vs-Nikon-Z50

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
