So, what is the verdict on Z6 ? Images look good with both s- lens and MFNG.

I am pretty happy with it
Though I still love my Fuji XT2
The 18-35 and the 85/1.8g worked very well with the adapter
but I opted to sell both of them so I can buy the native "S" lens
The 24 and the 85 are supposed to be out this year but the cost may limit my buying decision
I am having a hard time when it comes to selling the Fuji

I see. 24-70S looks very good. Nice, clean look, but I may be more impressed with how AI / AIS or even pre-AI images look on Z's. I might still just get a D750 and be done with camera looking for a while, but, every now and then, like now, I get tempted.

P.S.
What's so hard about parting with Fuji ?

@ Luka
The XT2 just feels so natural in my hand and I love the files
Nice small lens and an aperture ring and a huge viewfinder
I only have one Fuji lens left but am still tempted by the new 16
but the Z6 is also wonderful I shot with it every day except the last 2 days of vacation
I pulled the Fuji back out and it was like coming home
but one day I will have to choose again

I only have an experience with Fujinon lens on my Sony EX1R video camera, which is a wonderful lens and a small point and shoot, but that does not really count. Fuji really did hit the market where the big three does not hit too well with APS-C segment. I can see the good balance of quality and size. May be you will always have a dual system or three Z as a system. Fuji as a 'go everywhere' cam. In my setup, Z itches me as a 'go everyewhere cam', but so as the idea of just getting a D750 and stay simple. As my current need is really to find replacement for D700. High-res part is covered with D810, and not in a rush on adding another high res body right now. Computer update would need to happen before that, then all those 32 bit apps will stop working due to the built-in self destruction dooms day function in Apple. So, I have to get ALL my apps to get somewhat updated, ..... I used to LOVE technology. These days, I feel fun is all gone, and just left with duties, and software taxes. ( I still refuse to get cloud app like you. )

It's been a while since I posted here... nice shots on the last few pages! Here's a five shot vertical pano with my aging D750 and the Nikon 70-200f4.... not the typical view of "Horseshoe Bend" in Page, Arizona....
