![]() | Nikon Z6 Pros: Weight (compared to SLR), fantastic viewfinder, 24mpx, FX sensor, autofocus worthy of the best Nikon home reflex that I have or have had, very workable file, shooting speed. Cons: Lack of a BG, autonomy, single slot. Opinion: Beyond all expectations, it was love at first sight. After reading and hearing so many skeptical comments I was sincerely afraid to take the step, considering also that 90% of the use I make is in birdlife. Instead, I had to think again right away. The AF in my opinion has nothing to envy to that of the d500 if set for the use that en we want to do, if you think you can use the center point with subjects in flight forget it if you are not able to keep the subject really in the center of the frame. Do not be afraid to use all the AF points, here they really work and the subject is hooked quickly and accurately and safely. The viewfinder is fantastic, you have to try it, it is not the usual TV is an OLED viewfinder, bright, wide, imperceptible latency, being able to see the photos before taking them is priceless, to be able to see them later without glasses up close and in the midday sun is the maximum. Light but not so much, from a feeling of robustness that is found only in level bodies, safe grip even with large-caliber optics, in short it is not the usual soap that one imagines. Well-arranged keys even if sincerely you feel the lack of the af lever, I solved by programming an FN key that however I would have preferred on the back. The 2 really important flaws are the absence of a grip x the vertical and an SD slot that would have allowed you not to faint with the XQDs. For the rest, the battery lasts half as long as the reflexes but the scotto of many improvements you have to somehow pay for it. The file is simply perfect, excellent seal to noise, whites finally well tamed that in the Nikon house is a bit of a novelty, excellent dynamic, opening shadows at the top. I assure you that my judgments are really those of one who uses machines, I learned at my own expense not to listen to anyone, my negative reviews on the d500 at the time generated a hornet's nest but then after the initial euphoria many gave me right. So without wanting to influence anyone in my opinion this time the yellow/black house has really done a job with flakes and this can only please me. sent on June 27, 2020 |
![]() | Pentax K-3 Pros: Compactness, construction, impression of general solidity and impeccable construction, 24 mpxl of those as god commands, stabilizer on the sensor, astro tracer and I stop here. Cons: Needless to say the optics, dear those of Pentax and not available for some years now those of third brands, consequently used market falsified by poor availability, indication of battery charge not always reliable, ignition from stand-by only from the shutter button. Opinion: I had already had the K3 along with the two versions of the K5, then because of the impossibility of finding long optics that fell and switched to yellow/black. Some time ago I got the monkey back for Pentax and I found it used at a ridiculous price with which with yellow/black you do not buy us even an entry. Nothing new I had already had, but after 4 years returning to use it was fantastic, another story, beautiful file, deep, balanced, workable, usable very well up to 1600 ISO with good light even at 3200. It may not seem like much but by the way I mean a photo, since I almost always use the full format of the flagships, with the colleague dx top of the range of the other I have to stop at 800 ISO. Then I read metropolitan legends that speak of tens of thousands of ISOs shot in the wind but do not believe it, every scarrafone is nice à mamma soja but a scrabble if it is such, such remains. For those who love astrophotography the pursuit with gps you will find it only in the House Pentax and a fantastic thing. Fantastic what Pentax can make that sensor do, simulate an anti-alliasing filter for example, not to mention the stabilization in the car that is just coming from other parts and that here has been home for over 10 years. In short, a fantastic body but we come to the sore note, to the tooth that commutes, the optics. They are the real Achilles heel in the Pentax house, especially in the field of canvases where the choice is bad and expensive, the fact that third-party builders have abandoned it for a few years has undoubtedly cut the legs to the brand. Practically we are stopped at the sigmone out of production now for at least 3 years and whose availability is reduced to the light, and that light costs a lot. Another flaw is the AF that was in fact back to the time it was out and that now makes any comparison impossible with the others, you have to call us and know that with this brand you have to give up something. Another thing That I don't like is the fact that when it goes on stand-by it just comes out of the shutter button, for those like me who are used to using the af-on to focus forces you to give a shot to the shutter button first and then focus, which if you have to seize the moment is a stroke, but go to explain it. However, in the calculation of the whole, given the price of the used now, I would say that if you find it will be 3/400 shots spent well. sent on January 18, 2020 |
![]() | Nikon AF-S 500mm f/4 D ED Pros: Speed and precision AF, sharpness already at full aperture, virtually complete coverage of the FX frame, optimally balanced, made with duplicators, price of the used. Cons: Needless to say the weight even if the bracket is comfortable and well positioned, infinite lens hood, not having it, poor availability of spare parts in case of failure Opinion: I bought this glass for a few days, tried it in avifauna with results needless to say excellent. On D3s The result is spectacular, what you expect from a Nikon of that level, holds and perhaps wins the comparison with younger brothers who pay pawn to the stabilizer that for me useless to these focal, think of using it freehand is pure utopia. Color rendition from Nikon, Fantastic floor deadlift, spectacular sharpness. It also made me think about the goodness of the d500 that I had a little on my stomach, never convinced me and is still in the balance but with this monster also makes excellent work, the AF in particular becomes a lightning, a sniper-proof of Cinciarella. In short, if you find it used do not think 2 times, sure if you were to break something to find the parts is almost impossible but the risk is worth running, is a Nikon why should break? sent on February 08, 2019 |
![]() | Sigma 150-600mm f/5-6.3 DG OS HSM C Pros: Weight, stabilizer, fast autofocus, customizing with usb dock, clarity in line with the price range. Cons: Bracket, clutch hood insane. Opinion: I have this lens for over 2 years and I have never spent my money better. Paid less than €1000 online, I've never been able to find him a true defect from the optical viewpoint or maf or stabilization. Weighs little, you bring it around like a 70-200, the nitididezza to 600 mm is not comparable to that of a fixed but it is not even the price. great to carry around without a carrier and usabilissimo Freehand, the stabilizer allows shots to 1/60 "without a tripod. Only in: really small bracket that does not allow a good grip, the lens hood that fits and especially in the release, you have to act forcefully with both hands and manual focus ring really hard to find while you're framing but are things that you get used to it easily and the money eventually makes up for it. sent on May 02, 2018 |
![]() | Nikon D3s Pros: Construction, ergonomics, ISO tightness, well arranged controls, battery seal, burst, Cons: crop limited but not so much, part of the video Opinion: It's still a fantastic car and it will still be as long as the shutter assists it. Returns a fantastic file to envy the current flagships, a noise-tightness of which you ignored the existence, exceptional dynamics, recovery spectacular shadows, three-dimensional image, perfect detail even at ISO 12800, in short, if you happen one does not make it escape , so they do not do it anymore! A bit limited in the crop but not even seen that to cut the noise remains almost stable as opposed to what happens with denser sensors and then on balance you cut almost the same way. If you add to this a burst of all respect and a still precise AF, even if perhaps a little less lending than the current then you will understand that the money of its current listing are very justified. sent on February 15, 2018 |
![]() | Nikon D500 Pros: construction, ergonomics, ISO control finally in the right place, burst, reactivity, AF, mobile display Cons: ISO seal. Opinion: After three exits, wildlife use, I must say that this machine is a gem from the point of view of performance in general. But I do not understand who would like to compare it to an FX for sensor performance. I believe that certain statements are the result of people perhaps paid to do it? I hope so because it means that they have never used an FX. The noise is already at 800 ISO even if still manageable, at 1600 begins to become a problem, at 3200 the image decays dramatically and the noise becomes really unmanageable, certainly does better than the d7200 but buy it only for that means just throwing the money, in any case the comparison with the files of a d3s or a d750 does not hold its own. sent on February 14, 2018 |
![]() | Nikon D4 Pros: Almost everything Cons: White with high ISO, little discreet shutter. Opinion: Bought a few days ago, made a couple of test exits with sun. In comparison with d3s that I still have and that maybe I will have for a long time, I seem to have noticed some difficulty on the whites over 1600 iso, which with the d3s still managed to great even up to 12800, it is only a first impression and I reserve the right to correct myself in the future. For the rest is the great car that is and only have it in hand by total security. The shutter is heard even if its sound is music. Autofocus is an infallible, fast, sure, almost perfect sniper. The commands, even too many, are always where you expect them, but I would have preferred a button dedicated to the lock where there are others, the central of the joy does not always respond as it should and often moves the point of focus rather that lock it, you make the hand or maybe reprogram some key to the purpose. sent on January 14, 2018 |
![]() | Sigma 500mm f/4.5 EX DG HSM Pros: Af speed, used price Cons: Does not digest dense sensors, short eyepiece, with low temperatures the AF speed decreases, it can hardly be duplicated. Opinion: Used a lot and what I understand is not good with dense sensors, with d610, d700 and d300 is a blade, but on d7200 it shows all its limits in terms of resolution. It is a glass that honestly does its work but does not ask for the moon. I also noticed a dramatic reduction in af speed at low temperatures. The duplicators can be used but not Sigma, the Nikon is good, but the famous dent on the bayonet has to be folded, however, because the yield should be said to expire a lot. sent on July 02, 2017 |
![]() | Nikon AF-I 300mm f/2.8 ED-IF Pros: AF speed, excellent performance with even duplicators 2x, contrast, sharpness scream even at TA Cons: Nothing special, perhaps a bit af noisy, cumbersome nature of AF / MF selector and weight. Opinion: superb optics, outstanding results. He feels it is already another stuff the first time that you mount on the machine. Built entirely of metal and glass and glass. I do not feel the lack of VR because I believe that on a lens by over 3 kg the use of at least one mono foot is inevitable. The AF speed is amazing, do not expect it. Maybe a real flaw is the AF MF selector a little paranoid and difficult to handle quickly, also to correct manually need to hold down the shutter button, but it suited us. The results then pay off all these efforts if you can definire.rnSegnalo the error in the review, the lens works with internal AF motor although it is not AF-S but I piezo, so can be used on all Nikon bodies also entry level. sent on January 18, 2017 |
![]() | Nikon D7200 Pros: AF speed and sensitivity, light weight, easy handling, clarity, infinite crop. Cons: poor dynamic, low resistance at high ISO. Opinion: I have the D7200 from 4 months are not disappointed, that's exactly how I expected. I do not understand the writer sealing at high ISO and dynamic, really I struggle. You are unable to recover even a stop on the shadows, the white the start easy and there is no way to recover anything, the noise is already noticeable at 800 ISO. I repeat to me is not a disappointment, I never had any illusions about 24 mpx of aps-c are so many and it is quite normal behavior of the machine. But go cautiously with sanctify it, I got it for autofocus undoubtedly handsome and to be able to exploit the possibility of cutting date pushed from the many pixels available, things that in birdlife indubiamente make the difference. For dynamic range much better my mythical D300 that I will continue to hold and not even so much as a mule. For everything else in my opinion there is only FF. sent on January 11, 2017 |
