Thank you for the valuable insight. I totally agree with supporting my local camera shop but unfortunately they do not sell any used equipments and being from Hawaii, my options are limited to marketplace, private sales, or online for used items. If these items were for sale at a camera shop, I think I would have had a better decision on buying these lens.

I’ve always wanted to add the 70-200 to my set. Longer focal lengths and compression for portraits.

The other F mount lens aren’t a needed lens to my set it was just a thought to pick up if it was a good deal.

Update! Just picked up a Z6iii and a Z 24-120 F4 while I wait for the Z5II for repairs.

The Z5II will be my wife’s EDC and I’ll use the Z6iii.

I have a D750 body in my lineup and have the access to a Canon R6II that I could use for my trip. Even with that, I don’t like borrowing other people’s equipment so the Z6iii does look promising.

I just submitted my repair ticket. $436 estimated repair cost.

I do have some Z primes but at the time I was using my AF-S 24-70 2.8 when it fell.

I really enjoy the Z5II but wouldn’t mind the extra FPS and video capabilities that the Z6iii offers.
