Justin - are you able to share where you are getting it from please? That price is even cheaper than Amazon have it for.As it looks like I'll be picking up a Z6 tomorrow can anyone recommend the best place to get a XQD card ?
Got my second card from E-Infin, but obviously not next-day delivery. (The original card came with the camera from Panamoz)As it looks like I'll be picking up a Z6 tomorrow can anyone recommend the best place to get a XQD card ?

Must have a quick turnover, else they are in short supply. I got mine just last week.E-Infin have none in stock at the moment

What's everyone else seeing, slight difference or marked difference?
Sharpness vs 55, debatable, rendering, imo the Nikon is nicer, I want to like the 55 so much (I bought it 3 times to try like it) but I just can’t. It’s boring.Yup IMHO the Z 50mm is sharper than the 55mm i had with the sony.
So far I am impress with both of my Z lens along with the Z6
Glad someone agrees with me lolSharpness vs 55, debatable, rendering, imo the Nikon is nicer, I want to like the 55 so much (I bought it 3 times to try like it) but I just can’t. It’s boring.

You should probably stop buying them then
I have Like I said, I tried hard to like that lens! When you getting your ff milc?

there’s a few of us that have said it all along and then there are others who love the 55, Just the way it is. The 55 has rapid af in stills and video, it’s tiny and weighs nothing so those are huge positives in a small system.
both sharpness and rendering is debatable tbh. What isn't is the better CA control and the price of Z 50/1.8 after the recent reduction.
50mm s just went back up £70 on amazon to £399
£350 is the cheapest I see it on WEX
I paid £295 from Grays of Westminster£350 is the cheapest I see it on WEX
Cheapest I’ve seen them
yeah, I was debating with cagey that I would definitely pay the extra for it over the G the other day, to my eyes it’s a great fairly cheap 50... but I like my mk3 af, video and art to much to change, z6ii maybe, who knows, roadmap looks alright but I’d like to see more 3rd party involvement or 1.4 and not 1.2 lenses unless reasonably priced.
I personally don’t see the point of f2.8 primes, at least not under 100mm. They’re a neither here nor there lens imo. YMMV obviously.I prefer the Z bodies to the Sony, but I am interested in the upcoming Tamron primes for Sony, they're only 2.8 but they do 1:2 macro, they're cheap enough [rumored to be around $350] and weather sealed. The 20mm and 35mm would be a nice pair.

the 20 @ 2.8 is a fine choice imo, makes a lot of sense at that FL. These will likely also be superb video lenses.
I've just looked at them on my 32inch 4k screen and yes agreed there is a night and day difference. My iphone 7 could show no difference however at the viewing size and yesterday at work I looked at them on a 1080p screen which showed a slight difference hence my comments yesterday. So for me at least it is very screen dependant.Interesting, the difference is night and day on my screen tbh, even the ones posted on here. Not just contrast but sharpness.

How did you manage to check the EVF with a flat battery?2nd impressions ? Even coming from an X-T3 the EVF is stunning - and even without checking if it’s got the latest firmware update the auto focus seems snappy
Shame the battery has no charge !!!
Well picked up my Z6 + 24-70 today !! First impressions ? Well it fits in the hand well and seems very solid ! And perhaps a bit heavier than I was expecting !
Just need to save up for the 14-30 now....

Did you get it with the FTZ?
Yes just a small amount of juice - without the FTZ adaptor although I might pick up a used one in the future.How did you manage to check the EVF with a flat battery?

Yes, I think the regulations say they shouldn’t be fully charged, nor completely discharged, as this is when they are at their most unstable state.Batteries have to be less than 30% charge when shipped I think, but there's usually a little juice in them
When I swapped my X-H1 for the Z6 I too found little difference in body weight but somewhat better balanced. I’ve since added a Linn half-case with built-in arca-compatible plate which gives my pinkie something to do. Don’t like battery grips.I'd say it's more comparable to the XH1 in terms of size and weight. Looking at the specs the body only is just a little heavier than the XT3 with battery in. Add the battery to the Z and it's going to feel heftier - for some reason B&H give the weight for XT3 with battery and memory cards added but on the Z6 body only
