I'm not sure I feel like my Z5 was holding me back, but rather more that the capabilities of the Z7ii would be of use. I've been a little frustrated lately with the AF performance on moving subjects. And of course the extra resolution is most welcome. Let us not forget the new camera smell...

No, I went with the Z7ii. The Z8 is too rich for my blood.

Well, I gave in to temptation today. B&H had their CFexpress Bs on sale for a decent amount off, and that clinched it. Now I just have to bide my time till Wednesday.

Well, I would like to have a Z8, but really can't justify the cost. The only way I see me owning a Z8, is winning the lottery, start making money with my photography, or my wife running off with the pool boy. I don't play the lottery, currently don't sell any of my pictures, and I don't own a...

Well, Nikon has the Z7ii on sale right now for $2K. That's around a grand off. I know one reason it's likely to be so deeply discounted is getting ready for the Z7iii, rumored to be coming out later this year. I'm wondering if I should jump on this now, or hold on for either a Z7iii, or possibly...

I wish you hadn't posted this. The Z7ii is $2K. Must resist. Must resist. Must resist.

They do have an annual contest, although to be honest, the talent I see in our local club alone would make for some stiff competition. I don't believe they give any feedback, in the contest, however. The rules are pretty strict about what is allowed, as far as subject, editing, etc. My daughter...

Wow, lots and lots of gators at Magnolia this morning. As well as other reptiles. And even smaller stuff.

I doubt you'll get an answer back from the Original Poster. This thread is from 2018, and the OP hasn't posted anything since. If you don't get an answer from someone else in this thread, you might try starting a new thread of your own. If you downloaded a previous firmware version on your...

There's one in every crowd.

I went on my first club outing this weekend. We went to the Swan Iris Lake in Sumter SC. Lots of swans, geese and a few ducks. They had 7 different kinds of swans. Since they feed them regularly, and there are lots of people coming through the park, the waterfowl are not afraid of people. They...

Went somewhere new to us today. CNPA had their monthly outing, and this was the first one for the Pup and I to attend. Had to drive about 3 hours round trip, but I think it was worth it. Could have done better, but hopefully I will improve next visit. This is a sanctuary/garden/lake that has a...

As they used to say: "The termites are all holding hands.". BTW, I like the B&W version better. This is the type of image that begs for B&W, IMO.

I got an email today from the CNPA and thought I'd pass it along, since some of you here have Olympus equipment. Apparently OM users that also use Mac for their computer need to update their cameras firmware now. Not doing so may prevent you from ever updating your firmware due to some MacOS...

Today it was the birds.

Is this the aspect ratio you are putting in? If so, the 4212x2369 is roughly the same aspect ratio as the 3600x2025 you inputted. I'm spitballing here, as I don't use NX. I use Lightroom, and one of the options you have in the crop tool is aspect ratio. This gives you a rectangle or square of...

Same gator. If you look closely you will see a spider catching a ride between his nose and eyes in both. It's a small one, an ankle biter. Maybe 3 1/2 - 4 ft long. I really like the texture in the water, with the reflection of the vegetation on the opposite shore. Unfortunately, the head of the...
