Nikon Z series: FF Mirrorless

The Z mount uses a large 55mm inner diameter and a 16mm flange focal distance that allow for apertures as fast as f/0.95 and a slim body design. It also opens the door to other lens properties that weren’t previously possible with Nikon’s F mount
only took 5 years

At least it "only" took 5 years.

Canon still doesn't even have a 1/2 decent answer to the mirrorless game, and their sensor is garbage too.

I suspect the A7iii is still the better buy at the same price point because:
  • native mount lens selection (included 3rd party)
  • it's a 3rd gen product so it's bound to be more polished than the Nikon
  • sony eye-af has no competitor in any other brand

That said, this makes the $2000 mirrorless-FF sector much more interesting to watch going forward, and because of that the high end APSC mirroless sector (Fuji XT series, Sony a6500) EDIT: will only get cheaper.

Today's announcement is great news all around.

Unknown, but it seems to be XQD-oriented. Single slot too, not dual XQD or XQD/SD on one.

Neat!
I personally rather buy a Sony mirrorless camera just because I want something different...
This is still sweet though.

twitchyzero 08-27-2018 10:38 PM

don't lie you already pre-ordered the f0.95 prime

Nope. Super strapped these days.

!Aznboi128 09-10-2018 08:13 AM

Holy shit, anyone check out the prices on XQD cards?

european 09-10-2018 09:17 AM

Is it just me or do they currently seem cheaper than before? I remember XQD cards were around 300 or so back when I was shopping around for one a few years ago. Either way, it's still pretty pricey.

https://www.amazon.ca/Lexar-Professi...ords=xqd+128gb

$350 bucks for a 128GB
I mean with the res and video 128gb is pretty average? But still a 64GB it's $200 bucks seems like a lot
