Great series from Kobnhavn. I have not been there for many years. It was before the burst of new buildings. I look forward to the old city shots as well.

LukaThank you Luka 
I have had most MILC's over the last 8 years and the EVF and LCD on the Z6 is almost better than a OVF and experience is just easy and fun how photography should be. The other aspect is you do not need to relearn the menu system and personally I like Nikon menus.
Sure if you have Sony lenses you keep with latest Sony body or dial back to a previous version. With my move to Spain I am in no position to re-invest in a bunch of new lenses and I am fortunate that the FTZ adapter works really well for my style of photography.Charles,
Overall I am impressed with Z6. One thing I am not too sure is that EVF is a bit too bright even at the lowest setting. By the way, did you keep the Nikon 50mm/1.2 AIS ? I imagine it will shine coupled with Z6.
Luka
Yes I did keep the 50/1.2 Ais and it works brilliantly on the Z6. The detail with the EVF is so good I do not even need peaking to focus.
My assessment of cameras is that after one or two weeks I review my shots and think has the portfolio changed and improved. As always said the best camera is the one you use and have fun with

Congratulations Charles!! Z6 is growing on me too. I videoed dance concert and I was shocked with the quality it produced in low light conditions. It has attributes that makes Z6 very strongly positioned in the competitive arena.Luka

A week and a half later, I am pretty content with Z6. So, I think it is a keeper. My setup will be D810, Z6, and occasionallly D700.
More 58/1.4G , with winter light. As I am still learning the AF, these are mostly 1.4.

Loving your shots with the Z6 It is interestingly the Z6 gets you out in the street and taking shots.

Awesome shots Lance 
I still think the D810 36MP is one of the best for balance of DR, detail and color.

Thank you very much, Charles. Much appreciated.
Agree with your thoughts on the D810, a great camera. If it wasn't for the great AF of the D850, then the D810 was perfect.

Charles;
I am hoping z6 provides Goldilocks. Not too heavy, not too bulky, but just right to carry with me on daily basis. D700 is just a little too heavy and bulky for that use, although I have done so for many years. And, Z6 being a new toy definitely helps.
