Hey guys,
I keep meaning to come back to this group, I used it a lot when I got into photography but my positing in recent years has been very sporadic. I am a keen amateur photographer who shoots mostly portraits but a bit of nature and landscape stuff too.
I am thinking about upgrading my D800 which i have had since pretty much it was released and I'm considering a Z7 or a D850.
I have just watched this comparison video and one of things that pushes me away from the Z7 is the lack of 3D tracking, something I use all the time on my D800.
Can anybody who has the Z7 comment on how they find the focusing please? If you come from a D800/D810/D750 Do you miss the 3D tracking?
I've done a quick list of pros for each with how important this is to me out of 10, included it if anybody is interested, happy to hear if there are things I have missed.
D850 Pros
2 memory card slots - 8
Ability to have a grip and extra battery - 7
3D tracking - 9
Z7 Pros
Smaller - 6 (would be more but I also have a Fuji X-Pro 2 setup when I want smaller)
In Body VR - 8 (miss this from my Minolta/Sony days!)
video quality - 6
Silent shooting - 5
Autofocus points - edge to edge - 8
Thanks, in advance, for your comments
