Interesting article. Despite all the negative comments I read about Z7 I have no shadow of a doubt that this is an excellent camera.

I posted this link in one of the many threads where the resident Sony fan boy was posting every negative word he could find. I waited for his link to this in depth, well balanced review. Surprisingly it never materialized. I can't imagine how he missed it.

It seems that one of the worlds best photogs (after an immense budget of course) really likes this camera. Many of the features are also found on other brands, and it only shows me that the technology is here to stay...

Thanks for posting a sane review by someone that actually used the camera! What is with all this Nikon bashing anyway. The Canon trolls are much quieter. Very creative images- no wonder the photog is considered one of the best.

The Sony users seem to be the most virulent while Nikon and Canon users for the most part, are secure in their knowledge of their “place” while the Sony user reminds me of the teenager back in the ‘60s pulling into the local car hop where all the “cool” kids were driving GTOs and Shelby Mustangs. He had a car that got him from point A to point B and he was happy with it. But he felt very insecure because they got all the attention (and the girls). So he would tell anyone who would listen just how great the VW was and how he got better mileage than those guys with their gas guzzling V8’s. And his tires cost less. And he didn’t need antifreeze. And their cars were harder to park. And, and ,and………………

I’m going to order the Z6 as soon as I return from a two month trip. Don’t want it arriving when I am not here.

It will replace my D800. While the D800 is fine and takes great images I never liked the operational scheme or weight of it. The Zs have a fine operational sceme with the touch screen. I also love the articulated screen on my D5600 but will get along with a flip screen over a fixed screen.

I was considering a D850 which solves my operational concerns and has a flip screen. But I can get the Z6 with adapter and 70-200 lens for less. And it weighs less.

True. I shoot both Canon and Nikon. And Sony sensors reside inside my Nikon D800e DSLR and Coolpix 8200's. Bashing is pointless. Similar to Mac vs PC rants. Too many irrational arguments are made. Brand name alone doesn't make it better. Better is better.
