not trying to take anything away from your points, but keep in mind the d6 is better than the d5 which is better than the d500 in terms of af. so i think the d6 vs the a1 is a better comparison. i'm not sure if it would really change your point, but my feeling is the d6 at least compares reasonably to the current pro mirrorless bodies.
Probably yes, but that would be very hard to establish, because the D6 is only 21mp, and the Sony A1 50mp, which ibrings with it a different level of need for accuracy. But no doubt the D6 will have the best possible dslr AF.
Absolutely,
Let me see if I understand this correctly, because there are a lot of in-depth technical details that I do not yet know: assuming a full frame sensor has 92% auto focus points coverage, and needs to be read out for AF at 120hz in continuous mode, whilst simultaneously there is a reading out of the sensor imaging pixels for the live feed to the EVF, do you mean that the processing power needed to do this with a 50mp sensor is not all that unique, and was available 10 years ago?
just note that Gh2 is a fast readout sensor not 120hz “autofocus rate”, I dun believe Panasonic advertise as 120 af computational per sec but rather a fast readout sensor.
my d850 was sold after getting the Z9. I still have d500 and 500pf as a back up body for wildlife fast action. I will sell those after I can get another Z camera with a stacked sensor and CAF like the Z9 ( hopefully in a smaller form factor) . I use nikon mainly for wildlife. I rely on another system for landscapes.
You shouldn't need to "press a button AND turn a dial" if you set f6 to "release button to use dial" option. So, you press the desired button, say "fn1", turn the appropriate dial to change the operation and then press any other button or "fn1" again and it is in the desired operation selected. Or, you may press say Exposure Compensation button, release finger from Exp Comp button, turn dial to change Exposure Compensation, then half press shutter or any other button and you are back ready for shooting with the desired Exposure Compenstaion.
I think you are right on the money Rich, I know for me the learning curve has been pretty steep so far but I do see a lot of potential once you get a handle on how to use this thing. More shooting is what I need but unfortunately life has been in the way since I got mine.
Its should not be be so hard is what i don't like about mirror less in the Z9, i think manufactures are trying to hard to be something for everyone in one camera.........they are unnecessarily complicated often at the expense of creativity and enjoyment.
I disagree. OP has explained what he meant and even at face value that statement is just recognizing that in general women think differently from men. Not bad, just different and in a lot of cases they are better at getting ing the shot they want on camera.
