1973 Ford Mustang Convertible


Great photo, as always. This was during Henry Ford’s “everything that’s bigger is better era”. He ruined the Ford Thunderbird and almost the Mustang with that thinking.

A couple of NYC shots

Before Covid, I liked going into NYC two or three times a year. I haven't been there since 2019. I think these are from 2016 to 2018.


Excellent short trip around the big Apple. Great photos!

Z6
DoyleY wrote:
I've been thinking about making the mirrorless move and also going full frame. I currently use a D7200 and would like to stick with Nikon but I am not totally opposed to switching brands. I do ok but I'm not a professional by any means so to me the 5k plus for the Z9 is just not justifiable. I only have one lens I would like to keep using, a Tamron 150-600mm. My other lenses are DX and I'd have to use an adaptor on the Tamron. Do any of you guys use a Z6 and if so what do you think about it? Any of you guys have a Z6 and a Z9? If so what can you say about pros, cons?

Nikon USA has some refurbished deals going on right now. You may want to check them out. Z6 starting at $999. Also packages with lenses. Good luck.

MPB

Sometimes you just need to pick up the phone and call them. Bi-directional communication is far more useful when you need someone to understand you.

I like MPB (and KEH and UsedPhotoPro) for used gear. I have always had great service from them. However, it is the busy season, and perhaps not everyone they hired for the season is fully knowledgeable in the intricacies of Olympus shutter count harvesting. Enlighten them.


Agree with your comments 100%. Call them and actually speak to someone. You may be surprised how much more information you can obtain. I talked with them a few times for clarifications and they were very pleasant to deal with.

Panasonic DC-ZS70 - Sold
Great camera. I have the ZS100 which is very similar and it goes with me everywhere when I travel. Good luck with your sale.

Nikon D780
b top gun wrote:
How much to ask for a Nikon D780 that is in mint condition and has 1004 shutter actuations? Just got back from a Nikon holiday in AZ and UT and NV, had both a d780 and d850, feel like the d850 shots were better all around. Am waiting for Nikon to announce their Z8; I am considering unloading the d780 and using its funds to help finance a Z8.


KEH, MPB, and others will pay you a fraction of what it is worth compared to what you would get if you sold it on your own. Check eBay for sold listings to get an idea of what it is worth in today’s market.

Great photo. Always loved that car, and it’s higher performance sibling, the 442.

No Starbucks for Me

I've had Starbucks coffee a couple of times. I don't like it. I guess it's ok if one doesn't like good coffee or thinks burnt coffee tastes good. I don't.


I feel the same way about Duncan Donuts coffee. Tastes like coffee flavored water to me.

Do you love your Sony RX100 vii?
HardwareGuy wrote:
I'd sure like some opinions on those who have this camera. We're traveling to Switzerland in December and I want to go light with a quality camera but not use my phone. I currently own a Lumix DMC ZS100. Nice little camera, but will the Sony be worth it for size and quality?


I tried handling the Sony RX100 a few years back. It was too small for my hands and so I settled on the Panasonic LUMIX DMC ZS100. Very Happy with that decision. Image quality, as you know, is great with either. Comes down to personal preference.

Second camera choice
Another place to check for used equipment is Used Photo Pro, division of Roberts Camera, in Indianapolis. Sometimes they run 10% off sales on Nikon gear. I have used them and they are great to deal with giving pretty much the same warranties as KEH and MPB.

Second camera choice

I have a Nikon D7100 and a stable of DX and FX lenses, along with 3 SB800 flash units (don't ask!)

I'm looking for a full frame camera to compliment my D7100 and have been considering a D750. My budget is about $700 which should work for a used D750 body in good condition.

I'm wondering if anyone has any other suggestions to consider. The budget is fairly firm, so that rules out the D850.

Your thoughts are appreciated.


MPB in New York has a number of them for sale. Those with lower shutter counts in excellent condition go for slightly above $800. That price is fairly consistent in the market place. Those rated good, are less cost, and of course, shutter counts sometimes effect the price. MPB offers six month warranties. I have used them often with excellent results.
