Rafael, Last one is very good. BTW I think you are not able to see the aperture you dial in on the viewfinder on the Z6. is there an issue with that. Thanks



Venky, the way I photograph, good or bad, is by first selecting aperture on the lens depending on the image that I want. Therefore I always know what aperture I am working at. Later the aperture will not be written into EXIF but that does not matter to me either.

This may be an issue for someone else, it is not one for me.

The focusing indicator does not work on the Z6 with manual lenses, but focus peaking works great. It must be said that focus peaking does not give you a simple indicator of a point in focus but a general indication over the entire frame that forces you to think a little but can yield great results.


Wow. Did not realize that the focus indicator does not work with manual lenses. Is it because of lack of a chip I wonder? Do you have a 45mm P with the chip that you could test on?

George, no but i have afd screw lenses with a chip. Aperture priority works proper with them, as does the focus indicator.
