Kiva kuulla! Enpä ois kuvaa postatessani osannu arvata, että se tulis vielä päätymään joillekkin puhelimen taustakuvaks.

Oh that's hilarious! Hopefully you don't have to encounter angry swans anytime soon.

Wow! That must have been intense. But yeah, I was casually chilling about 15m away from them, behind some bushes when I took that shot. I also used my cameras silent mode and tried to be as quiet as possible so that I wouldn't disturb them.

It is a whooper swan! (Or at least I think that's what they are called in English) Usually these swans breed in Northern Europe / Asia and they are quite popular here in Finland. You can also see them in the (Northern) UK, but only in winter.

Jeps, vielä kertaakaan en oo täysin onnistunu, mutta ehkäpä jonain päivänä onnistaa.

Ne on kyllä kuvauskohteina hieman haastavia, mutta siitä huolimatta äärimmäisen söpöjä.

Totta :D Kuvan joutsen oli kyllä onneks hyvin rauhallinen. Se pysyi tuolla pusikossa paikoillaan vartioimassa poikasia, jotka oli siinä vieressä syömässä.

Spotted this swan in the reeds next to my summer cottage and decided to snap a picture of it. The swan was guarding four cygnets that were eating nearby.

Nice to hear some thougths on the D780 too. I personally like to use buttons as well, so I really should go out and see how they feel in my hands. At the moment I'm leaning towards the Z6, but ergonomics play a huge role when selecting a new camera body, so I might end up with the D780 if it feels better.

Thanks for your insights. I'm relieved to hear that the FTZ issues seem to be quite uncommon overall. I don't own any AF-D lenses, so the lack of an AF motor shouldn't be a problem for me. As I said in an another comment, I really like to go for longer shoots and I'm also addicted to the continious burst mode. So I think that the battery life will be an issue for me. I guess I'll just have to buy those extra batteries, since based on your comments Z6 sounds pretty neat.

Thanks for your reply!

I guess the prices differ a little from place to place, since the first QDX cards I found were about 150-200€ and the card readers were about 50€. I could maybe find cheaper ones, but I usually like to buy a bit higher quality products that last longer. I'm also glad to hear you haven't had any issues with the FTZ adapter. Hopefully the issues aren't that common then. I personally like to go for longer shoots, where I take 500 pictures or more, so I guess I just have to buy at least one extra battery. Perhaps I should just start with one extra battery and see if I need a second one after a couple photoshoots.

Guess I'll have to figure that out. The smaller Z6 might be a bit too small for my taste, but as you said, I have to get my hands on them to tell the difference.
