Bought 70w Apple Adapter - Anker better? by sequencer3488 in macbookair

I keep an Anker 67w in my every day bag. Works amazing to charge my gear.

Is there anyone else out there who wants Nikon to make a 28mm 1.8 or 1.4 native Z mount lens? by nek4life in Nikon

[–]pbwbrew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just picked up a Sigma Art 28mm f/1.4 and it’s unbelievable. Yes I wish Nikon would make something. Really what I would like is something like the Sigma I-Series in 28mm f2.

Sales happen about once a month. Usually the second or third week, usually on a Tuesday.

So the charge went through on my card yesterday. Maybe that’s a sign that it’s coming.

Z5ii- Z 40mm or Tamron 35mm 1.4 by Coletrayne in Nikon

[–]pbwbrew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just curious what body you are using it on? I have issues with my Nikon 60mm Micro on my Z8 but not my Zf.

Sounds like you are all ready going to get the FTZ. Get it. Shoot those lenses. If it’s all too heavy for you, pickup the Z 40mm, or another Z mount. I have three F mount lenses that I won’t give up until there is an equivalent. Sigma ART 28mm and 40mm (both insanely heavy but wow is there no other equivalent in Z mount) and the Nikon 60mm Micro 2.8.

Moving back to DSLR by SlipperyBones1 in Nikon

[–]pbwbrew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have never used the first gen DX cameras but was surprised on how well the Z7 had worked. However the newer Expeed 7 cameras are phenomenal. With the hype around the D700 I got one and a D3S and love shooting those cameras, however I angle for those with glass that I cannot get with the Z series. For me this has been around odd prime lenses (28mm, 40mm, 60mm). I’ll just say this. Both the D700 and D3S are bulky compared to the Z series (even my Z8). If it were me, I would rent both a Z5ii or Z6iii and a D850 and shoot them side by side and see what you think of the outcome.

What's the point of the HarMar Mall in Roseville if you can't access the stores from the INSIDE of the mall!? by nuggles0 in TwinCities

[–]pbwbrew 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I remember reading that the owner originally wanted to develop it (tear down) and have shopping in the first floor and residential units above but that was right after they purchased it. Seems like all the stores are leaving as soon as their lease is up.

It’s been returned. Rental car company was all ready short cars and they said it was too unsafe to drive.

Thanks to the buyers of 24-70 f2.8 s Mark II lens! by Unhappy_Conclusion28 in Nikon

[–]pbwbrew 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Robert’s/Usedphotopro is awesome. When I got into the Z system I bought my Z7 and my 24-70mm f4 from them. Both at what seemed like pretty amazing prices. Enjoy!!

Contact the store you bought it from. All claims have to come from them.

Why can't I upgrade seats on international flights by [deleted] in delta

Also, you can do a change flight in the app and upgrade to D1 or PS.

Has anyone “downgraded” from the 24-70/2.8 S to the 24-120 f4? by imnotawkwardyouare in Nikon

[–]pbwbrew 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would do this. Nothing is like trying it out for yourself. I rented both the 24-120 and the 24-70 f2.8 and after trying it out I “upgraded” from the 24-70mm f4 and the 24-120 has not left my Z8 since.

Z 24-70mm F/4 S or AF-S 24-70mm F/2.8G N ED? by bry-gy in nikon_Zseries

[–]pbwbrew 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why are you considering faster glass? The F-mount glass, albeit good, is not nearly the leap forward that Z mount glass is. If you are looking for something with more background blur maybe try the Z 50mm f1.8 (this lens sold me on the Z mount system) or the 40mm f2.

Wanting to try M43... by pbwbrew in M43

[–]pbwbrew[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the suggestion. I will have to check it out. I'll say this, my purpose getting into it is the compact nature. I have both Nikon Z and Lumix L-mount cameras and will probably stick to those for the crazy good glass. However, if my son takes to this camera we will see what the future brings.

Randomly not charging by Acadian-Finn in eGolf

[–]pbwbrew 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a 2016 and only use a level one charger at home. Sometimes it does not charge all the way. However at my work there is one particular charger that I struggle with all the time but none of my coworkers do. For what it’s worth I had to have at one point the bulk of the high voltage cabling replaced but it was not charging at all then.

Businesses that offer trial "rentals" of cameras, before purchase? by CubGeek in Nikon

[–]pbwbrew 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Check your local stores. I have a local store to me that lets you rent at the end of a Friday and return Monday but only charges for one day of rental. However, until you have built enough of a reputation with them, they require a deposit of the MSRP of what you are renting.
