It’s why I italicised inferior.True, I was talking purely in terms of performance/spec, but yes there's much more to it than that.

Some of my best memories were when using my Birckon D7000 with the awesome Birckkor 17-55mm f2.8 tank..... oh and the Fuji X100Nikon seems the place for a gathering of all We've probably all shot using their gear at least at some point.
This (Z6) is the first time I've shot with Nikon since I ran a couple of Nikon FMs covering rallying in the 70s and 80s. Paradoxically I converted a team of Nikon pro photographers in the media team at work from Nikon film to Nikon digital, but I just let them buy the cameras they wanted, to keep the peace. . It was that or Canon. I ran a Canon 10D then ...Nikon seems the place for a gathering of all We've probably all shot using their gear at least at some point.

Both had Sony sensors I think, lol
2x D7000
4x D700
1x D800
4 or 5x D750s
I practically have shares in Nikon.
Better ergonomic is not the case anymore with the new Sony bodies.It was just a mild case of a GAS Attack! lol
I was just curious so floated the idea in my head..... both systems are ones to watch and arguable the Nikon has the better ergonomics, design, GUI and 24-70mm f2.8 lens! lol
Would you guys trust a Nikon Z to shoot a wedding, I've been asked to do one for a friend next year. I've not really tested the AF in anger yet as my Z7 has pretty much only took static stuff.
Music to my ears . Not ideal but I'd be using two totally different cameras, EM1-II with a wider lens and then the Z7 with the 85mm f1.8G, I think that's a better option than switching lenses throughout the day. They're not expecting much (thank god) they just want something better than iphone photos with heads and feet cut offDefinitely, can see its more than capable of shooting pretty much anything.
Nope it needs dual card slotsWould you guys trust a Nikon Z to shoot a wedding, I've been asked to do one for a friend next year. I've not really tested the AF in anger yet as my Z7 has pretty much only took static stuff.
Haha, I don't know how film togs used to copeNope it needs dual card slots
1x D90
2x D7000

What I always deem my first proper camera was the Nikon RD2. Sure it was only a point and shoot really but I still regarded it as a proper cameraOh maaaan... my first proper camera was a Nikon D40!!! It had a Sony CCD 6.1 MP sensor and the images it produced were pretty good.
If the next Nikon Z body get's the following features I may consider a move....
Better AF performance including Eye-AF etc.
Additional card slot.
Would like blackout free silent shooting but not too concerned if it didnt get these.
Nikon's body design, build, sealing and user interface is still market leading.
I would probable got for a zoom lens and possible 1 or 2 prime lenses. That it.
I don't actually know anyone with another Z tbh, but I'd have a second body in the form of my EM1-II. That has dual slots so I'd at least have something It's odd isn't it how we've become paranoid about the two card thing, I know a number of professions are happy with iPhones these days and they have no back up per se.I shot weddings with a Nikon D200 and D90, not at the same time, I didn't even have back up bodies. SO I know I would, though I'd beg borrow or steal a back up bdy somewhere and switch cards every few hours JIC.
Up until the A7RII Sony only single slot too. I'm sure many a wedding was shot using those.
Better ergonomic is not the case anymore with the new Sony bodies.
I give you better menu touch control though.
And 24-70? The gm is already good. Where's the 70-200 on the nikon? Or the 100-400?
Or just about a truck ton of missing lenses hehe.
I have shot a wedding with a Nikon D7000, Fuji XT-2 and Sony A7R II Out of all of them, I found the Fuji most frustrating. Faffing about with them retro dials just added more time to capturing the photo.I don't actually know anyone with another Z tbh, but I'd have a second body in the form of my EM1-II.

TBH I'll be bricking it on the day, I'm not a very confident person. But I've been saying for ages that I'd like some experience so I can't keep turning opportunities down forever. It's a nice 'easy' start too, I think there's only 12 people at the wedding

WTF a EOS R........... When did this happen?One of my cameras is the canon (dropping the C-bomb!!) eos r. And after the fw update its bloody brilliant.
Fair point, it wasn't just that..... it just felt like a step back from my Sony A7R II bodies which I had prior to it. ISO was a notable difference.If you had taken the damn thing out of the cabinet before you would have worked out you don't need to use those dials

They had no choice..Haha, I don't know how film togs used to cope
