Still trying to get the hang of the Z. Operation, ergos and menus are familiar enough, yet different enough from the D bodies I'm used to to be quite disconcerting. All in all, though, I think it's going to be a great move for me. I'll benefit from the system's strengths, while its weaknesses are not in areas that affect me.

The native lenses I bought have finally all turned up, but this was shot a couple of days back, so still with the 24-70G on an FTZ.

You will eventually love it. I didn't like it when I first start shooting with it
It's ok now but I still think the rgonomics should be better. They should bring the d850 left top wheel and the rubberized recessed selection wheel from the d850. I think that's more what the Z d6 equivalent will look like but the price of this body will be quite expensive.

Just had a lot of fun with Z7+FTZ+ 20/1.8G doing a little sunset sea kayaking with some friends with SUP boards.

Sunset was a bit disappointing because of the rainstorm on the horizon but the little thunder display was fun but I was not really in a place where I can take pictures easily

Thanks Lance! This is the first time in the last fourteen years that my wife and I have been home in Canada for the fall leaf change and I'm really enjoying it.... returning to NZ in about three weeks (and I won't miss the recent freezing weather). Keep safe my friend!

Cheers and good light,
David

Thanks Lance. I had a lot of fun taking these pictures but was very afraid of getting seawater on the camera.

My choice of photography in these lockdown times...might specialise in dog photography after this

She struck a pose here....the most dignified look ever

I am lion....fear me! by luftwalk, on Flickr

Two next photos are her usual, full speed, running photos...but the clear backgrounds and better light make a difference here. Second photo sadly has some blown highlights.

Next one is a full photo, no cropping...at close distance, lens and camera stuck with her:

Grest action shots!

Were you using animal eye tracking? I have used it on my Z7 for a tiger walking towards me using my 70-200 f2.8 + 1.4x TC and it locked on solidly without misstep.

Nice job managing the whites on those Snow Geese Eric.

Here's a couple from the backyard this evening. I was playing with the Z6II with 50S.
