Nikon D7200

Pros: 24 Mpixel APS-C sensor (6000x4000 pixels), dual SD slots, efficient AF, battery life, ergonomics, dual ring controls, size, compatibility with non-motorized AF lenses,

Cons: For my use I don't detect them obviously except for the lower speed and responsiveness compared to the D500 and the fact that I don't use and therefore I don't need the adjustable screen; For the noise I never found it unmanageable even here considering that I never climb above 1600.

Opinion: Waiting for the "D400" that didn't come out, I decided to buy a first D7200 by reselling a D300s. Satisfied with the D7200 I still returned it to get the D500. To have a forklift available I bought another used D7200 at a price and in unmissable condition. I still use it currently for macro outputs or when I know I have to use the angle viewfinder for "floor" sessions; the rectangular bayonet coupling is in fact faster and more practical for me than the circular screw one, which I have on the D500. The pixel size is 3.9 micrometers for a 24 Mpixel APS-C sensor which allows for a nice cropping margin for recomposition. The dimensions and weight (765 g) are reflex but still a little lighter and smaller than the d500 and the previous D300s. In conclusion, I still recommend it to those who want a good reflex at a reasonable price and, the one I have, I keep it carefully, using it often as mentioned above.

Panasonic Lumix TZ100 / ZS100

Pros: Pocket-sized, good focal range, brightness, build quality, effective touch for focus at the favorite point of the scene, availability of the EVF.

Cons: Non-articulated Display, codec unavailability for raw file previews (RW2) on PC (W7), charger not included in the purchase box.

Opinion: I bought this camera to not carry the weight and the clutter of the reflex during the Pilgrim's Way; I am very satisfied with it while using it for a very small percentage of its possibilities (e.g. I do not do video). I put it in the backpack often even when I go out with the camera and tele. I had compared it with the Sony RX100, the Canon G7 MII (of which I liked the articulated display) but in the end I chose this (I did not want to give up the touch that Sony did not have and for the greater focal excursion than the canon). To charge the battery by pulling it out of the camera I bought a Patona charger that works very well; But definitely a cons. I could not find the codec for previews from PC W7 of RW2... for the quick view of the raw images then use FastStone (Fsviewer). The quantity and arrangement of the keys requires you to use it often to take your hand; If you do not use it for a while regain the options and how to change some settings is not really easy but I think this necessarily accommon the compact for a matter of physicality. Ultimately if you have requirements of lightness and good compactness I feel I can recommend.

Nikon AF-S Nikkor 200-500mm f/5.6 E ED VR

Pros: Value, autofocus, image stabilization, usable with TC 1.4, balanced in the pan

Cons: Nothing "fatal" however: ready case, lens hood graft helical excursion to go from maximum to minimum focal length or vice versa, not weather sealed

Opinion: Start right away by declaring that they are satisfied with this aim that I'm using with my camera D7200.rnrnLa positive perception is based on past experience with other lenses and therefore should not be considered absolute ovviamente.rnrnHo had 300 afs F4 I used multiplied on NIKON D300s and then the 150,600 tamron; only the latter also used on NIKON D7200.rnrnGiudico this the best lens Tamron constructively as AF speed and, as a project, with a good value (6 meters) of the AF range limiter (that the Tamron was 15 meters ) .rnL'AF is extremely quiet; not the feeling of extreme reactivity but in essence it is rather quick and preciso.rnrnRispetto to 300 AFS F4 with TC 1.7 This zoom is, in my opinion, better as AF speed and accuracy while compared to 300 with TC 1.4'd say speed and precision are equivalgono.rnrnLa zoom versatility is obviously the reason why I bought so unlike "infinite" thanl fixed. The 200 500 multiplied (I have the TC 1.4 II) amazed me that still allows for usability and clarity that I got in a few shots (I'm here on Juza) ... close subjects in good light and it must be said. . then ottimali.rnrnQuanto conditions of my positive experience depends on the lens and how much by the best AF control of the camera body does not know dire.rnrnLo use as I have always done with my lenses stopping down, in light conditions that allow it, at least one stop (to F8 then) compared to the maximum opening that is F5,6.rnrnPer use the zoom going true low as focal (is the situation where the subject approaches in flight for example) should be challenged in a special way otherwise you can not "start all over"; the possibility of using it in a "pump" would have been nice but it is not (at least for me) a question irrinunciabile.rnrnIn two occasions, in contrast with support and with vegetation, I dropped the hood; then the block of Inscion of the lens hood is not the best but you just get us some definitive attenzione.rnrnrnIn are really happy with the purchase and if you need this type of zoom range I would recommend it even in relation to cost.

Nikon AF-S 300mm f/4 D ED

Pros: Constructive and optical quality, modular MAF distance with limiter over 2 intervals (from 1.45 m or from 3 m to infinity), AF speed (in the limited range of 3m), brandability, transportability thanks to the built-in lampshade, sustainable weight for freehand photos/excursions, not excessive price, maintenance of value, resaleability.

Cons: I mention the question of the poorly designed bracket more because it notices that because I verified

Opinion: My opinion is expressed in the pros I have indicated and it is very very positive. If anything, in the implicit characteristics of the lens (fixed fire and F4) are the possible considerations on whether or not to adopt this objective: at the moment I would confirm the purchase by not existing in the NIKON house a viable alternative in the price range that I consider; for example, there is no 400 or a zoom (always in the price for me affordable) that have won the enthusiasm of those who have adopted them (it is easy to compare with the excellent 400 5.6 and the versatile 100-400 of THE CANON that are instead widely used). As for the diaphragm a 2.8 would certainly be desirable but the doubts about the price going up, with the quality but also with the weight, and the branding that would decrease have at the moment kept me away from this replacement. So Nikon AF-S 300mm f/4 D ED, Nikon TC-14E II, Nikon TC-17E II, with customary use of the pairing 300 th TC1.7 (diaphmmndo in general to F8) the kit that I use, mostly with satisfaction, during my outings.
