Pros: Excellent viewfinder, fast and very accurate AF-S, AF-C with face lock and very comfortable eye in portraits, high image quality, Dynamic Range galore, very low noise at high ISO, Nikon feeling, CF-Express card, a quality all-rounder, really light and contained with its small prime lenses!
Cons: Viewfinder/screen sensor that throws tantrums, battery life not exactly excellent, some plasticky controls, AF-C in many situations lazy and dancer, somewhat complex settings, Highlights Burn warning in the viewfinder/screen available only in video mode but not in photo mode (or is it me who still haven't found it?), but above all for me it does NOT give the pleasure that a Reflex returns
Opinion: Moving from the Aps-c Reflex world (which I still have) to the FF ML the leap is really quantum: first of all the image quality, very high, with very sharp images, it will be the precision of the AF that does not suffer from FB focus, it will be for the high quality of the Z lenses, but magnifications over 100% go that is a pleasure! the noise at high ISO is really very low, I think about 2 stops compared to my apsc, shooting at 3200 ISO and finding yourself with little noise leaves you speechless. The convenience of AF with face/eye attachment is really a lot of stuff, especially in portraits! Dynamic range galore, in short, you can shoot in any situation, except in dynamic situations, where the AF can misfire (it was certainly NOT designed for this area). The battery life allows from 300 to 500 shots, better to have some in reserve. Nikon menu, rich and easy to navigate, with the possibility of building one on your own needs. The settings are many, so before using it it must be studied a little, especially the AF to get the best. I find the FN front controls quite uncomfortable, they are not at all easy or intuitive to use, other buttons a little plasticky / rubbery, do not give the maximum pleasure of use. It is not a point and shoot (as was the small D3400, a monster in comparison) but the quality it returns is really great, giving in my opinion a stop on noise to other FFs of the same category. A rather boring defect is the viewfinder/screen sensor, it often refuses to switch from viewfinder to screen when you take your eye away from the viewfinder itself, you always have to blow on it, a big break; But the big Neo (for me who am an amateur photo) is the feeling of the Mirrorless (any mirrorless), alas they do NOT give that shooting pleasure and that magic of use that the Reflex return, so much so that I am seriously thinking of combining it with a FF Reflex. At the end of the day it is a very good Professional Machine. |
