Viltrox AF 9mm f/2.8 Air

Pros: Sharpness, weight, size, price, brightness, distortion.

Cons: Flare resistance.

Opinion: A respectable lens in relation to the cost; with € 200 you take home a nice wide angle equivalent to 13.5mm on FF. Tried with the Z50II, on the road, I fell in love with it. A light and space-saving combination that allows you to take home excellent sharp shots with good color rendering. The only complaint is the resistance to flare but it can be safely overlooked given the low cost of this lens. The plasticky lens hood is also included, however, it does its job and attaches quite well. A lens that I highly recommend, well done Viltrox.

Nikon Z6 II

Pros: Sensor, high ISO sealing, lightness, versatility, viewfinder resolution, burst.

Cons: Invasive blackout, embarrassing autofocus, useless dual processors.

Opinion: It is a 2018 camera "updated" in 2020 with a dual processor (expeed 6) not exploited properly and with the addition of the double memory slot. I bought it in November with the "Black Friday" promo at 1430€ and at this price it can also be but needless to say, Nikon on this price range has fallen far behind. At the full price or at least discounted at 1800/1900 body only, in my opinion, it's better to look elsewhere. Because? I found the autofocus really embarrassing, unusable many times even on stationary subjects, making mistakes as soon as the light conditions became slightly more complex. The automatic tracking also misses people who walk fast, the Dynamic AF on a seagull in flight misses 8 out of 20 photos. The small or large area cannot be used if the subject is between disturbing objects, otherwise it will be difficult to fire on the nearest object. The gust is excellent but if you follow something you have to go by intuition because of a blackout that is too invasive. For the rest, I confirm the PROs without going into too much detail. If you want something that allows you to try your hand at something more dynamic, if you want Nikon, it's better to stay in the reflex or buy, as I did, the Z8.
