    Recommended magnetic filter holder and filters for various lenses

    Another WEX post, sorry

    Just bought a Nikon 16-50mm Z lens, from WEX this week, Described as a 9 and it looked brand new. Delivered very quickly and well packaged. Very good price too. Luckily I've never had a problem with anything I've bought from WEX.

    The 100-400mm is very versatile, relatively small, lightweight and focuses quite quickly. It is good optically and can take the tc, the auto focus speed does take a small hit with the 1.4tc, but optically it's very close to no tc. I like it, as long that's they range required. I have the...

    This, while very nice to have, would be impossible to implement imo. The current lenses with the in-built tc, is designed to project its image onto the sensor without moving it forwards or backwards, when the tc is engaged or disengaged. All non in-built compatible tc lenses are designed to be...

    If you have a lens already that could be put to good use on a DSLR, a second hand DSLR would be quite inexpensive. Personally I'd prefer selling the lens, not investing in a DSLR and putting the money to a Z alternative. I use a Z8 and Z50II, I put my Z MC 105mm macro on my Z50II, when out and...

    You'll find they'll stay there and not get used. While the ftz was good for converts to mirrorless, the Z glass is superior and added bulk/flaff of the ftz soon makes it a bit of a pain. Obviously if you still had a f-mount DSLR, then they'd be worth keeping. I'd sell them before they're worth...

    It was, then the heavens opened up, everyone was soaked right through. Soapboxes made out of cardboard turned into a sodden mess

    I love the look of the Zf SL, but like yourself, I'd want a 45mp sensor in it. Finger crossed the next iteration will be 45mp or there abouts.

    I totally understand. It's definitely a big draw.

    I can understand why they'd build the tc into it, but I'd prefer it without the built-in tc. It'd then be possible to actually save enough for one, as it's expected to be 10k+, I have a 1.4tc already, it'd be lighter and possibly more reliable in the long run. It'll be amazing that one thing we...

    I thought they'd have risen in price, but the Delkin is cheaper than I paid for it back in Aug 2023. I paid £89. The model number is DDREADER-56, if you're looking the same one.

    I use the Delkin one, that has a sd card reader built in to it as well, good for Z8 users. Works well and good transfer speeds. The prograde gets good reviews too.
