[QUOTE="Rick M, post: 718346, member: 4399"] So after watching the videos and reading reviews of every S lens I think I may have to eat my words. I did notice how many top talking heads shunned the Z6, but most of the lens reviews where fantastic (except for the UW, too bad). The rest where stellar and if the 20mm comes out that would help resolve that issue. I came across the D750 24-120 Package for only $1699 and decided to head down to best buy to check it out, convinced that was the one. I hadn't handled a full frame mirrored camera in years and while the customization was great, the size/weight with the 24-120 attached was a turnoff. I think I've been mirrorless for about 5 years now and definitely biased towards smaller outfits. I was pleased to see a Z6 with the 24-70 set up 2 cameras over. After playing about a bit, I have to say I was impressed with it with the exception of the grip and dial placement. It's just not a natural comfortable fit compared to the larger DSLR's or even the smaller Oly EM 1 II I'm used to. I was pleased to see both cameras where operational and would hold an image long enough to crop in the screen (i didn't even think to bring a memory card since I didn't expect to see them operational). I set both cameras to the same settings and shot the same subject at various focal lengths. From my non-scientific tests the s lens on the Z was superior in every shot (may be the VR verses in-camera, but at f4 in a bright store there should not have been any need for a tripod). I was really impressed how they squeezed an Fx sensor into a body only slightly larger than a M4/3rds! I became an instant fanboy, and that's gonna cost a lot more! Now that I've done a 180 I have to see where my system goes. I don't want chunky adapted lenses for wildlife so looks like I stick to the original plan for that purpose. Now I just gotta find an extra 3k laying around...., [/QUOTE]
