https://www.flickr.com/photos/kadath/albums/72157715719828602 First batch of pics. Moon came out pretty pretty nice on the 80-400.

Just got home. Battery had a slight charge, it's getting zapped up, used a 15A from my DSLRs to get started. Traded up in store from my Z-50, which is my backup camera. Now this will be. https://www.flickr.com/photos/kadath/albums/72157715696329848 Camera ships with Auto ISO on, was...

My issue isn't with refurb per se but the very little price premium that buying refurb usually nets you. 15% difference? I'll buy new. 50%? OK I will take a chance with this one! It came in over the weekend while I was away. Will test it tomorrow.

You misunderstand. They offered me an EXTRA $100 to put towards the Z6 which is $400 more than the Z5. The Z5 is the new entry level Full Frame mirrorless. It's a little bit slower and a lot gimped in video, but otherwise very close to Z6 capabilities. Z6 also has a backlit sensor. I don't...

I still haven't shot a whole lot with my Z 50. Today Nikon offerred me $550 to turn it in for a new Z5 or $650 to step up to a Z6. Tempting. I'd really prefer the single digit Z series with IBIS, and the things the Z5 scuttles from the Z6 make that even more appealing. It got me to looking...

Haven't had much chance to shoot it. I was pretty steamed about the dust but didn't send it back...

The Z50 ships with an unacceptably dirty lens: DSC_0012 by Sam Posten III, on Flickr You can see there is a lot of ringing / CA on the shots too. That's baked in. These are long distance shots handheld with a consumer grade 70-300VR but my D500 doesn't show that much ringing. Scoop...

So for those of you not friends on Facebook you missed the story. I left Friday night for three day football adventure Fri hs football playoff game in nj Sat ohio state vs md Sun steelers vs Rams fedex tried to deliver camera Saturday but my roommate was out of the house. They said they would...

Mine has shipped and will get here tomorrow.

Ok I haven’t put a single item in yet but think I’m going to love the Vision 13. I was worried I’d hate having to open both a flap and the rain seal every time but of course they thought of that. It’s held onto the flap with Velcro and you can keep it unsealed until you actually need to protect...

So this thing is a lot smaller than I expected. Yes you can probably put a 10" tablet in there but a cover will make it snug. No way I can put my 12.9 iPad Pro in there. Noodling keeping it vice sending back for the Vision 13...

I think FedEx just dropped it off. Won't have the camera till late November =p

I looooove Think Tank stuff and it's half the price of the Urban Disguise, so I think it's gonna work great for me. I'm not sure about the two-tone, but I'm not really in it for fashion =)

Apparently Think Tank no longer makes the Urban Disguise so I went for the Mirrorless Mover 30i. That's their biggest small bag. https://www.amazon.com/Think-Tank-Mirrorless-Camera-Pewter/dp/B01N537ARJ/

Got to play for a bit at PhotoPlus. Solid. The eyefinder was waaayyyy better than on my Alpha 6000.

Ho ho ho. Now I have a handstrap and an FTZ I can't use til end of November. I also got the 40VR Macro to try out. Will test it on the D500, if it's too small for working distance in the way I operate I'll send it back...

Thanks for that comparison @Scott Merryfield - Again my interest is juiced not just by the size but the combination of size and IQ over cost. I'll likely get a 40Macro to try and that may be my walkaround combo, depending on how unwieldy the converter is.

Yes, that may work perfectly for me too. This body will permanently stay in my car as a replacement for my broken Alpha 6000, and I use a leather strap on that. I don't keep my DSLRs and lenses in the car and I hate being stuck out of home without something more flexible than an iPhone, so a...

I need it for Macro more than anything. Putting on the 70-300 will be a bonus. I have yet to order the FTR adapter, will probably do that too tho. I'm obese and my fat is centered in my belly region so belts don't work for me, but thanks! This guy will permanently be attached to a Black...

No idea how that happened. thanks. The naysayer:

I think I am contractually obligated to get this (And I have preordered at B&H). It's comparatively inexpensive and super powerful for the price... https://nikonrumors.com/2019/10/10/nikon-z50-mirrorless-aps-c-camera-officially-announced.aspx/...
