Welcome - All great, love the dog and the cave shot the best - nice!

I'm going to be guilty of going on but I did think of something possibly valuable to you @myststars The beanbag -- I remembered having a camera beanbag years ago, due to the need for long exposures shooting film. In searching they are still a thing and are available in many sizes. This would...

I want to make a final point - I hope that I was not out of place in my suggestions to try software. It is not for everyone and I want to point out I very much respect your desire to take a low ISO photo as apposed to correcting a high ISO image. That is ideal without doubt Without the addition...

One of the truest statements for sure - I owned Canon point and shots loved them - I even have the greatest customer service story for Canon you could ask for. Using the "see how it feels in your hand" mantra the Canon DSLR's just did not feel good at all - the Nikon's did so that's what I...

I did this pretty quick and you can see the "control" you can get nothing tricky all simple edits with light and contrast. The neat thing is you are the creator and Ansel Adams was a darkroom specialist. You would have to rely on lens stabilization with the Z50 its not bad and it does work...

Congratulations @sailor365 great job!

These have been many very good points by @Clovishound and others for sure. To outline something in your budget I do have a Nikon Z50 and I have a test shot for you to evaluate. I would strongly recommend going for the newer Z50II as the advanced processor in the new model would help greatly with...

In an attempt to illustrate the need for a digital "darkroom" (editing software) I found a site where an article was written with downloadable files from a Nikon Z8 showing "noise performance" with different examples. When viewing the files zoom in and see "noise" is still there and would still...

@myststars - Thank you for sharing some of your images, this really helps! First point I want to make they are some really nice photos. I am not personally familiar with the Z6 mk1 (don't own one) but from reading what folks think and the fact it has two successors at this point other than low...

Do you use a PC to process your photos? If yes, what operating system does it have? Do you shoot in RAW or .jpg? I would like to make some 0 dollar suggestions to improve your noise, it depends on your answers to the above.

Welcome to the forum! To add (a little) to already good points, your Pentex K2S is a APS-c sensor 20mp sensor. It sounds as you are a landscape shooter, please verify this (and any other photographic area's you like). You have a pretty capable rig so far, just my humble opinion. To second...
