I’m looking to upgrade soon so I’ve been looking hard at the options. I’ll most likely try to find a used or refurbished Z8. The Z6III is very tempting with a sensor that is just as fast as the flagships, lower price but giving up some ability to crop-to-zoom for smaller birds.

I think the Z6III is better unless you’re committed to the vintage look for ~+$200. The Z5II is also an upgrade in some areas for ~-$200. I really like the Zf but have heard enough people complain about the lack of grip to be a bit wary. I’m still using an old Z7, and can confirm the 40mm is great

I also don’t do this, but immediately thought of a turret section in a game where it was implemented and made intuitive sense

I feel like cinestill was pretty open about what they were selling. But I also haven’t bought any in so long that the last roll I actually shot got comments from the local shop about the “old style” label

I liked the clouds yesterday afternoon so I stopped at the rocket park on the way home from work. Taken with my normal camera and a full spectrum converted camera with a 720nm infrared filter #photography
