Back to Nikon! Prepare to see the worst photos taken with a Z8

Nearly 3 years ago I switched to Sony A7iii from a Nikon z50. The reasons were many, but mostly that there were no affordable fast zooms, be it 1st or 3rd party.

Now things have changed, and the Z mount has not only great native glass, but also some of my favorites from E mount. Unfortunately, Son

My first camera! Nikon Z50 + Nikkor 16-50 f3.5-6.3

I was taking pictures before but this is truly the first camera I can call my own. Nikon had a discount on this bundle, so I got it new for around 780$. Super excited to go and take pictures!

When will Nikon care for APS-C users?

Nikon doesn't seem to restrict mount access very much, at least not nearly as much as people seem to think, it's most likely that they set a licensing price for certain lenses that is above what Sigma and Tamron are willing to pay, and also Z mount reportedly has a much higher development cost as it

FTZ adapter lens recommendations

I doubt you'll save much money, thanks to the existence of lenses like the 70-180 f/2.8 and the like. For me, the rubric for adapting a lens to a DX camera is: At least $100 cheaper than getting a native lens (otherwise why get a $300 adapter to make a big unwieldy package) Be size appropriate, as a

Kamera zum Birden

Von denen, DEFINITIV R7 + 100-400. Ziemlich ordentliche Kamera und wiegt nicht viel. Die P950 ist eher für Beweisfotos bei gutem Licht. Wenn du eher in Wäldern oder anderweitig bei wenig Licht unterwegs bist, kannst du dir auch die Sony A6700 + 70-350 anschauen. Die ist sogar minimal leichter und ko

Humble request: lens purchase advice

I know this is a M4/3 sub, but if your wife had a Canon that she loved, she might prefer to ease back in with a Canon. I took a long break from photography and got back into it with a Nikon z50 2 lens kit, and it let me get familiar with a new version of a system I was comfortable with. Now I have a

Z50II vs Z5II

Nikon Z50 II is lightweight & compact and so are the kit lenses. Unfortunately, there are very few professional and semi-professional grade lenses. What's more, the body relies on the built-in touch display for a number of interactions, which can quickly become an issue. Especially if it's below 0 C
