    Nikon Announces Z6II and Z7II

    I just looked at the announcement material at Nikon USA regarding the Nikon Z6II and Z7II, and I am impressed. The new Dual Processors sound pretty impressive, and I am anxious to see what some good reviewers have to say about them...(that would be anyone other than T&C, the angry guy, and...

    Interview: Keiji Oishi of Nikon – "It’s time to get excited"

    This is a pretty good interview of Nikon Execs. A lot is about mirrorless but there is some about the business and the impact of COVID-19 and their recovery...

    D7500 a worthy upgrade from D7100?

    Congrats @Elliot87, I am sure you will enjoy it. I was one of those guys that was sure I had to have 2 card slots but the D700 cured me of that over 18 months of use. Also, I always thought I needed a grip but the more I looked at my photos the more I realized I rarely used them though I had...

    First Wedding, Help needed!

    I did a few weddings for family and dear friends and I used a Tamron 28-75 f2.8 and the Tamron 70-200 f2.8 G2 on my 7200 and later D700. The combo worked great. I think you will be pleased with the combo you have chosen @Elliot87. I think I ended up in all cases using the 28-75 most of the time.

    Took this photo of a gentleman at church yesterday. An impromptu shot as he joined. I do like the low light performance of the Z 6

    upgrading from a d3100

    Congratulations @OrangeDream. I echo what @nickt says. Getting a third party handbook is good to have as well. You will love the improved flexibility over the 3100, but it really helps to get to know the camera through the manual and a good handbook. Handbooks give you best settings for the...

    Nikon Announced Z-Mount 50mm 1.2 S lens and 14~24 f2.8

    Nope... this took up a bunch of my Lens Money. It's a 2017 w/25000 miles. Pat retires the end of January and this should get us to visit family and such, so lenses may be a bit further down the line. :D BUT I do like my 1.8 primes and the 14-30 f4 is great, so I am good... :encouragement:

    So what lens to shoot the moon?

    I use my 200-500 f5.6 with my Z6. I was doing hand held since I got the Z6 but recently started using a Wimberley Monopod gimbal. It really helps and is nowhere near as cumbersome for me as the Tripod.

    Unpredictable flash firing

    Welcome to the forum @naruse! Glad you found your issue. Sometimes it is those little things. I know I have had my share... At least it is cost affective. :D

    Post your Cloudscape Photos

    Just some clouds hangin' out yesterday or the day before. Always like photographing clouds. I do need to get someone to power wash the house though.

    Post your latest purchases.

    We replaced one of our vehicles this week... a 2017 Explorer with 25K miles. That should last us quite a while given our current level of travel and Pat will drive the Jeep until she retires early next year.
