[QUOTE="Needa, post: 843105, member: 37799"] That K-2S has some interesting features and seems like a keeper if you didn't want to shoot under such challenging conditions. My low light camera is the D810 but its low light focus capability is not a good as your rig. To combat this use I several tricks, one is I back button focus (BBF) so I can focus at a higher contrast area then easily recompose. I do use a travel tripod, conditions permitting so I can reduce the ISO. Another trick is to use a flashlight to illuminate a area for focus then turn it off, this works in conjunction with the BBF as the camera will not try refocus when the shutter button is pressed. There may be other methods to lock focus on your camera. The fog pictures are a different challenge as they are lower contrast and there for harder for the camera . As you said manual focus may help here. Have you looked in to the Z6II the Z6 & 7 were Nikon's first full frame mirrorless I believe, previously they had dabbled in mirrorless with Nikon 1 series.
