    Z5 LCD Display - Busy

    In still shooting mode, is there a way for the LCD not to display so much information... AE bracket scale on the right, especially? Seems like a lot of distracting elements during composition. The DISP button doesn't present an option for a bare-minimum display. Do the higher Z models perform...

    Upgrade from Z5 to Z6ii

    I used a D500 for a few years, then a D810 briefly, finally the Z5 these past months because a used body was affordable from a local Southern California camera shop. The Z5 serves me well except for the 4.5fps and the viewfinder blackout during exposure. I'm interested in hearing from any...

    Default sorting of content by most recent?

    Just wondering... when I enter into a sub-forum like, Post Your Black and White Photos!!, the display defaults to oldest entries first, and not to the most recent. So, I click on the highest page number to get to recent entries. Seems like an awkward way of doing things. I didn't see any setting...

    DX Lens on a Z Full-frame Body?

    I am still trying to come up with an affordable solution to get more telephoto reach on a Z5. Budget is limited in my twilight years. :( 1. A used 70-300mm AF-P and FTZ would come to $700-$750 (tax and shipping). Not interested in the older AF-S version. 2. A refurb Z 24-200mm from Nikon...

    Street Peddler

    Found this in an alley recently. There was a car parked in front of the mural so it took some contorting and stretching to get a straight-on shot, and cropped a little in PS. Z5 Z 24-70mm F4

    Settings for Focus Shift Shooting - Z 105mm

    I watched a few videos tutorials on this, and understand the menu choices for Focus Shift Shooting on my Z5, but I'm not grasping which other settings to use. I can make some educated guesses, but thought I would ask those who are experienced. A pre-flight checklist? Many thanks. Focus Mode...

    Suggestions on a mid-range Z zoom?

    Like many, I feel the pinch in not having a mid-range Z zoom that extends to 300mm, one that is somewhat affordable and as lightweight as possible. For many years I schlepped around a D500, 2 primes, and the 70-300mm AF-P DX VR which was good enough when extra reach was needed. In comparison...

    SB-700 Speedlight - Z5 Controls?

    Does the SB-700 on a Z5 allow for rear-curtain sync to be controlled via the camera's menu, or through the speedlight itself? My last experience with on-camera flash was with an N90s and SB-24. 😂 I am open to the idea of a Yongnuo flash. I don't need tons of power, just enough for...
