Tried "smart-sharpen" in Gimp: still behind a bit from Fred's Photo AI result. I think refining the smart-sharpen process can close up. (But it is not the purpose of this AF-C test, which stands to achieve in focus, sharp images from live shooting, not from the sharpening process.)

This is a real field test with sigma 600mm, handholding, and OS on. The plane was moving quite fast. Targeting failed three times. Finally fired a burst before it's gone. The sharpness rate was 0 to 4! The best-savaged one is still a bit soft. Disappointing...

There was light pollution everywhere on the horizon. This is after heavy pp.

New try. This isn't a complete match to the BIF scene (not even close, I think). But more of a casual test of z6ii AF-C bursting shots. The moving object wasn't moving very fast and I didn't use sigma 600mm either. Can I say there isn't much-losing focus on the object each individual shot in the...

2nd series:

Like to try AF-C bursting shots on moving objects with z6ii. Came up with shooting moving vehicle idea at city street side, but not at day time as drivers may be intimidated. So here comes two of the bursting series (z6ii with Z 24-120mm S, AF-C, wide area large, CH high)

This is not dangerspouse' pet!

Hi, Don't know where to put this thread. Since I now own and play with a z6ii, here is a new thread at Z6/Z6ii. It's interesting (and valuable) to know (and to learn from) the members here who own and use Z cameras. So I sincerely ask you, all z owners, to raise your hand for a head count and...

Received a new (hopefully) sigma 150-600mm C recently from AMZ. Being testing it with my z6ii mainly for sharpness at 600mm. The first stage of shooting still objects was about done, yet no opportunity for testing moving objects with auto-tracking (any suggestion for moving objects other than...

Autumn in May?

Good news! I tried my z6ii with my AF-P 70-300mm non-VR for tonight's moon shot. By handheld and AF, it was easy to catch better images than my old D3500 (by tripod and MF). The images are much much better even with no PP!
