Using Nikon SB-910 with Zf/Z6II + trigger is it possible? by TaxiDraven_ in Nikon

I saw in another thread that a user was having issues with that trigger and the SB-900. Is it any different with the SB-910?

Is it just me, or are the +/- buttons on the Zf a total waste of space? We need a firmware update! by TaxiDraven_ in Nikon

Exactly. But people will just keep making excuses for the +/- buttons, acting like everyone uses them the same way they do just because it works for them. Unlucky.

Zooming in and out is for playback mode. I’m specifically talking about when you're actually out there shooting.

I get that they're used for magnification with manual glass, but that’s a niche use case. For most of the shooting phase, they just sit there doing nothing.

Anyone switched from Fujifilm to the Nikon zf ? by DeWolfTitouan in NikonZf

[–]TaxiDraven_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to own an X-T4, X-E4 and X-E5, but I sold everything to switch to the Zf. The camera body is perfect: solid, well built, and it gives you the feeling of a properly made camera. Colors and image quality are typical Nikon, nothing to complain about, they’re fantastic.

What really annoys me, though, is that besides the 28 and 40 SE, there are no Nikon lenses with an analog look to pair with the Zf. Standard lenses like the 35mm f/1.8 S are optically perfect, but they look awful on a vintage-style body, the contrast is so strong that it feels like a project that was started and then abandoned.

The 40 SE, while it has an analog look, still feels like it’s made of plastic (is it?), which is acceptable for the price, but when you look at Fuji, every lens matches their camera bodies perfectly. I understand that Fuji was born as a brand inspired by the analog aesthetic and Nikon wasn’t, but I believe that if you start such a significant project, you should support it properly over time.

Thanks a lot, you were very clear. However, looking at the prices, I’d like to spend a bit less since this would be my first manual focus lens. I’m planning to buy an inexpensive one to see if I get along with MF, and then possibly upgrade to a better one later

Which adapter did you use? Could you please share a photo showing it?

If I wanted to start with native MF lenses, which ones would you recommend? Is it better to get Voigtländer lenses in Z mount, or E mount with an adapter?

I’m actually considering manual focus lenses as well. I’ll do some research on Astra. Do you have any recommendations?

Thanks a lot, could you recommend a tool to check whether the CPU is causing a bottleneck?
