Time to change camera
It has been a while since I write a post in this blog and since I bought my Nikon D850, my basic all around camera so far. it was about 5 years ago and it is still a great camera.
Why changing ? Well the reason is that I am turning 40 soon and I wanted a change for my birthday. Something better especially on the Autofocus field and in-body stabilization and also I wanted to test the mirrorless cameras (mostly for the evf). I have sold some of my camera gears to buy the new camera…. the Nikon Z8 and I am so thrilled to receive it. It felt bad to sell my telephoto lens (150-600mm), my 70-200mm f2.8, my macro lens 90mm f2.8 and of course the camera , the D850 but it I hope it was worth it. I kept all my other lenses, the sigma 14mm f1.8, the sigma 24-70mm f2.8, the sigma 40mm f1.4, and the sigma 105mm f1.8. All of them of course F mount lenses so I had to order the F to Z II adaptor too. Now with the order comes the problems. There were two recalls from Nikon for two different problems related with the Z8 (apparently some cameras had issues in mounting the lenses and some others had issues with the camera strap). This means that instead of getting the camera in a week it will arrive in three months, in November, exactly for my birthday, but what the hell.
The image below has a 24-120mm f4 s Z mount kit lens attached to the camera. I considered buying the camera with it but at the end i stick with the lens i have for a bit and i will see later which one to buy in the Z mount lineup.
