nikon_z24_f1-8Nikon Z 24mm f/1.8 S

Pros: Sharpness, focus, lightness

Cons: Backlight with annoying flares

Opinion: The optics are excellent in terms of final performance, but in backlight (both sunlight and artificial lights), it creates a double flare that honestly you wouldn't expect from an S series lens with NanoCrystal coatings.... And I'm one who uses flare to his advantage, but it can be annoying sometimes. I really miss the "old" Made in Japan lenses! Which of course I kept.

nikon_z8Nikon Z8

Pros: Ergonomics; Speed: Almost immediate ignition; Autofocus a step ahead.

Cons: You have to have a lot of money set aside for both you and the Z optics. The battery in my opinion is undersized, it drains too quickly for those who do sports or birdlife.

Opinion: After years of golden service with the D800, I bought the Nikon Z6II, an excellent camera, compact, light and of great quality, but it lacked that feeling of professional body and "flab" in the hand to which all of us marpoons of the brand were accustomed. And finally Nikon woke up from the coma and pulled out the Z8 and Z9... THANK YOU NIKON. Now here we are.... Coming from Nikon Z6II, I can't help but notice, in addition to the aforementioned superior level ergonomics, a finally decent speed in turning on the camera (now it's fast). Also, from a technical point of view, it's scary both for AF and fps in continuous shooting. Shooting at 20fps you don't notice it and you take 1500 shots. On the video side, same story, crazy. Finally N-LOG profile and so on and so forth put as options, codecs etc., something that was absolutely missing on the Z6II that forced me to use Sony for the video side. The only thing I can't understand is why in the latest firmware update they didn't include the birds option like on the Z9. This bothers me a lot because seeing the difference on z9 between before and after, there is an abyss. Why not give the Z8 this update as well? In general, it is really a machine that will last over the years and will give us a lot of satisfaction.

tamron_150-600vc_g2Tamron SP 150-600mm f/5-6.3 Di VC USD G2

Pros: Metal construction, tropicalized, great AF, Arca Swiss compatible tripod ring, weight, price.

Cons: Possible F/B Focus and fire inaccuracy with FTZ adapter

Opinion: After a lot of indecision between this, Sigma Sport and Nikon finally decided. The Sigma too heavy, the Nikon not tropicalized and in any case both with a considerable price difference. When I arrived today, I did some testing on both the Z6 II and D800. On Nikon Z6 II I had to adjust the AF because it went into front focus, and also the focus is sometimes inaccurate. I think it's due to the FTZ, although with other Nikon optics I didn't encounter these problems. On the D800, on the other hand, perfect in all respects. Excellent stabilizer, as well as the construction of the lens, all made of metal made in Japan. For now very satisfied.

nikon_z6iiNikon Z6 II

Pros: Ergonomics; Weight; Versatility; Burst; Double Slot;

Cons: Bayonet, I would have preferred them to leave everything as it was.

Opinion: I have a Nikon D800 and the triad, I must say that I am very happy to have chosen to buy the Z6 II instead of the D850 especially for a matter of generational passage. I appreciate all the advantages of a mirrorless body and I have to say that with the FTZ I can take advantage almost perfectly of my N-series optics. I can also take advantage of the batteries of the D800, which surprised me pleasantly. It has a very delicate shot, WiFi, BT and full touch screen which is a godsend. If they had put the backlight of the keys as on the D850 and D500 it would have been practically perfect. TOP image quality, flagship burst and amazing ergonomics. What to say, I absolutely recommend it.

sony_a6000Sony A6000

Pros: Construction; Ergonomics; 1080P 50Mb stunning; Autofocus Fast.

Cons: Lack of input jack for external microphone; Non-tilting screen for selfie mode; Belt hinges invented by a serial drunkard. Virtually non-existent optical stabilization.

Opinion: I have now purchased this Sony a6000, choosing it between 5100, 6300 and 6500, for a quality / price ratio. In fact on Amazon it's 540 € with the 16-50 Kit which is all about a perfect opt ??for starting out and still getting nice things out. rnrnI do not understand sincerely what to write that the optics is stabilized when it trembles with Parkinson's. The autofocus is fantastic, really, it's exactly what everyone says. Never tried an AF so fast and efficient. Great ergonomics, very small and light, but to put it in your pocket it takes an even more flat look of 16-50. Remember that to record with the XAVCS codec (which you should prefer as AVCHD's best), you will need to purchase a minimum 64GB SDXC with high read and write speeds. I got a Kingston from the top 90 / 80Mb price. rnrnWith the Gray coloring it has a rough matt finish (like the 6300/6500) compared to the black instead of smooth glossy like the black a6000. rnRegge the iso up to 1600 fairly well, but I would not push it further. Integrated external flash that could save you, as much as useless as all integrated flashes. rnTrack for video recording in the most uncomfortable position of video recorder history.rnrnThank you very happy about purchasing, but you need a steadycam or a Gimbal to shoot decent video.

samyang_14Samyang 14mm f/2.8 IF ED UMC Aspherical

Pros: Sharpness, construction, price, color rendering.

Cons: But why do not you make them Autofocusssss!?! ??!

Opinion: Use this view for a couple of years, the photos speak for themselves. The only fault I would say is that: AUTO FOCUS curse !! The rest is one of the optics with the value migliore.rnNon price I can advise you, but only for leisure notoriously where you can spend time to find the angle and perfect focus. rnPer business use, the lack autofocus is a significant limitation.

nikon_70-200vr_f2-8_v2Nikon AF-S 70-200mm f/2.8 G ED VR II

Pros: Construction; undisputed quality; sharpness; focus; stabilizer

Cons: Weight.

Opinion: Finally, after no little waiting, I managed to buy the second lens of the triad to stand alongside the superb 24-70 f2.8. rnChe say, a show. The VR then coupled to the D800 is a hand from heaven. rnResa optical indescribable and blurred stupendo.rnVenendo dall'80-200 True union, we are on a different level from all points of view, even if the True union is still defend well especially as costs. rn

nikon_70-300vrNikon AF-S 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6 G ED VR

Pros: Construction Quality - Stabilizer lot quieter than rival Tamron - Tamron AF faster than rival

Cons: For its category, I think nobody. Maybe they could do a little brighter, at least f4-5, 6

Opinion: Taken today used at a great price after selling the Tamron 70-300 Di VC USD. Compared to the latter, there is no history in terms of build quality, silent AF and the stabilizer. The Tamron looks like a toy to the touch, this no.rnrnHo a D800, then the optical test will severissimo.rnAppena I do add my opinion.

tamron_70-300vcTamron SP 70-300mm f/4-5.6 Di VC USD

Pros: Price / Performance ratio - Stabilizer

Cons: Build quality is not outstanding - Autofocus slow

Opinion: I had ques'ottica for a few months, in preference to the more expensive Nikon house. The stabilizer I was immediately struck by its effectiveness (though very noisy). Clear and detailed up to 200, then softens. rnOra I sold it and I got the Nikon 70-300 and I have to say that build quality as there is just no comparison. Nikon is the Nikon guys always. In addition, the AF is a lot quicker, the stabilizer is not perfect and I rumoroso.rnrnAncora test performance. Then I review it in its sezione.rnrnIn each case the Tamron for what it costs, it really is a great choice for those who want to start using this type of focus.
