I had a craving today to see Becky & Kon so I watched several of their review videos, including this one. I've had both of these lenses since they were first available. I've used them on Z 6II, Z7 II, and now on my Z f and Z 8 cameras. I am always pleased with the images I get with them!

the iso dial works as a high cap in auto iso..

I watch from Lynchburg in Virginia (US). Thank you and Becky for all you offer!

Tilly!

I used my 10mm to 20mm to take boat show photos a few weeks ago on a Nikon D5300 and also landscape style which were so clear you saw no blurr or edges that were not perfectly clear! I was so impressed but you need to use the proper settings to get this lens to take them that clear! That isn't what you two did. You used wide open and the most closed on every lens? I still am quite happy with my own choice and know the right settings to get the affect and clarity I want! Each lens has a "sweet spot" that top photographers learn which I have studied under. That area is where you get the most clear images. Each lens is very different in this respect which is why you need to compare them each at their best settings! Apples to Oranges? No each lens is different and can't really be compared equally with the same settings. Wide open and most closed is not what I use in my own photography unless I do night shots. Which came out amazing with a 35mm on the Sony A73 wide open. I actually took some shots wide open with a 10mm to 20mm and set it up with the other settings, still got sharp images edge to edge!

Not mentioned here is how familiar you both are (or not) shooting manual focus. Working manual focusis like getting used to the clutch on a manual car - eventually you hardly notice. Obviously the usual caveats apply about what you intend to do.

Thanks, great video!

Oh. I was so sure it stood for TeeTotal.😊

Your camera with blue leather is so cute !!!

Typo on the title "2.8"

Nice review of another character lens. It is truly great to see the 3rd party manufacturers stepping up the game to bring more choices for people. Great to see to both! But the highlight of my day was seeing Tilley! Have a great week the both of you! ☕️📷

Pity its a crop lens ... 🦘

D850 is the king of DSLRs no doubt, but even for landscapes, Z8 beats it because you can get sharper images, not only that, stabilization and the 3 way tilting screen on Z8 alone makes it far superior to D850

Amazing ! 🤓

Blue Zf! thats the most beautiful, I own that one too 😍

Becky!!!!

I want to go to the store and touch EVERYTHING!!!🥰

Not for me but good to see a DX lens

Thanks for the review ☺️

Please give me the like of my great friends ....am in need of go pro camera 10 or 9 can someone sponsor me please

I’m on the cusp of going from a Z8 from a D750. My D750 has the same program modes (you can even create a button shortcut to rotate to the correct old school lens on the camera). If my 750 can know the aperture as I adjust the aperture manually, why can’t new Nikon mirrorless? I just double checked with the same 50 f/2 nikkor-h, as well as my 85 f/1.4 ai-s, and the 80-200 f/4.5 nikkor-c. All display on the screen the correct aperture when I change the aperture and of course save the data to see in LR. This is a bummer for the Z line of bodies. I was already bummed about losing AF on some of my older lenses. Would have been nice if Nikon made a more expensive lens adapter option that had an internal battery that could operate a screw drive and retain aperture information

Red Code Raw on the Z6iii, and OTA for Z8 (8k60p) and Z9

I heard they were coming out with a 75mm, any word on that one?

Bill, watching from Prescott, Arizona USA, waiting to purchase my first mirrorless Z series camera. I have 50+ years shooting film & digital Recently sold my D7200 system, torn between Z6II & Z7 II. I currently photo events and landscape. Going to wait until June to see if the ZIII series is going to be released.

nikon has had virtaly reality for a few years . to use it just move the VR AF/MF switch on the lens .

Hi Kon, great stream watching from Australia.

I dont think Nikon needs a higher mpx camera. There is a gap for one flagship fast camera with only a 20-24mpx sensor. Z line is boring with all those spaces consuming 45 mpx Z8 and Z9. Im jealous of Canon users for having the option to buy R3 or even new R1. Who wants 20fps with 45mpx. Is ridiculous.

Nikon Z6III should have everything from Z8 except for 8k and 45mp sensor.

so expensive too hahahah

Durability

Kon, I was unable to attend yesterday. Had a client commitment. I will be on the livestream next week. Hope you’re enjoying the Bank Holiday weekend! 📸

As a home barista I love the coffee and camera talk.

I currently have a ZF but no lens yet. I’ve been away from photography for a while (apart from iPhone) and have the 50mm f1 on order. It will be my only lens for a time. I really wanted the classic 50mm experience but I’m torn about getting two of the other Voigtlander lenses for the same price (35/50). Do you think I should go with the f1 and embrace the limitations of that one lens setup? Just not sure… I’ll be shooting around the city and love architecture so I know the 50mm isn’t the obvious choice.

Trevor from Northamptonshire. A new customer to Grays (bought a Zf) so I keep forgetting about this weekly broadcast. Glad you record it!

Soz missed yesterday’s show - birthday party to go to. Drat!

Viltrox has upped the game seriously with their lenses. I am impressed with the 16mm so far with reviews. I think it is good that these 3rd party lens makers have upped their quality of manufacturing and other people affordable options. Have a wonderful 3 day weekend Kon. ☕️📷

Another Oregon fan here. Love your videos and everything Nikon!

How could Z7 III have better specifications than a Z8/Z9? What should be reduced compared to those if 60 megapixel?

Here from South Carolina in the great USA 😊

Gary Beat from the beautiful west coast of the US(Oregon). Never miss a show and learn something new every time. Thanks!

Northeast Florida here. Carry on!

Watching from Germany, great show as always!

Watching your show from South Africa. Great information.

Albert Canada, Big Fan!

Watching from Mechanicsburg,PA USA

Hi Kon. Watching from near Tucson AZ. I am retired and no longer wake up at the crack of dawn (your afternoon). Thanks for posting the shows on You Tube.

I’ve have a Viltrox 85mm f/1.8 autofocus for the Z mount and it works great and very sharp. In fact it is too sharp for portraits of females that I will diffuse it slightly with diffusion filters.

watching from Peru

Germany

Melbourne Down Under. Sorry I lost the live time Kon, F1 & MotoGP...
