Sure!
I'm currently using my 70-200 f/2.8 vrII with the FTZ adapter, but would rather reserve that lens for its dedicated body and reduce the weight on my Z6. I'm also not big on changing glass in the field.
Bob Hartung, the Z 24-200 isn't a S Series lens...I'm hoping it was a typo on your part. The constant f/4 aperture over the full focal range along with edge sharpness are advantages, especially in low light. I have the 24-200 on order, be it will continue to use the 24-70S for night image capture.
Have you tried applying a glass wax like Rain-X? I'm pretty sure any automotive wax on glass will provide you with the shape retention you're looking for.
Z-5. Nikon has taken a lot of input from Z-6 and Z-7 owners and have put them in the Z-5. If you're not a pro videographer, the Z-5 will more than satisfy your needs...and then some.
And I thought it was from the right wing...or maybe it's the west wing? Who cares...let's keep the politics out of the photography forum. Please.
After researching the menu items and founding the solution, the problem did not lie in the D6. I even found the menu solution and I don't own a D6 (but I do own a couple of D7100s and a Z6).Thank you for alarming Nikon owners with a bad title.
My first suggestion is to shoot the comet after sunset if possible...I've gotten some great shots and sleep in the morning. Second, I believe some of my Nikon's has a menu item that lets me choose whether the shutter releases when something is in focus (as per the autofocus) or not. I do a fair amount of manual focus override after the autofocus does its job to capture intricacies...so I set it accordingly.
No, but I'd give my local Walgreens a call. Whoever manages the photo dept should share that info with you. BTW, some Walgreens locations have Canon while others have Epson printers for their metal prints. My color profiles are all set to Canon, and those locations give me the best results.
Once I found a local Walgreens with someone who knows what they're doing, I've been getting great metal prints. They do same day 11x14 in-house, 16x20s are farmed out. With their frequent sales (up to 70% off), they're a great source. They are available in other sizes too.

I've used the in-camera distortion and perspective control for immediate results in field... giving me the opportunity to make subtle adjustments for better results.
You'll find it in the Retouch Menu.
I rented one for a couple of weekends, it is a great lens but the technological advancements in the Z glass is an improvement.
I had a similar dilemma, and decided to order the Z 24-200 f/4-6.3 to supplement my Z 24-70 f/4S that I enjoy for night photography. Granted, there's crossover in focal length coverage, but there's something to be said for shooting at f/4 @70mm 1/6th sec ISO 100 without a tripod.
Considering the superior edge sharpness, lack of focus breathing, weight, and the elimination of the need for the FTZ adapter, there may be other advantages through the focus ring programming and more to go with the new Z 24-200.
Sell the 28-300...you won't miss it.

The 18-300 is a DX lens, and the Z-6 automatically goes into DX mode with a reduced megapixel count when it's attached. In my opinion, not a good fit for the Z-6. I have the 18-140 DX, along with a pair of 70-300 AF-S ED VRs but am looking to upgrade to faster, sharper glass of the 70-200 series.
