I would recommend that you look at NX-D from Nikon ... it always has had a better control of color and raw conversion.Now i am just waiting for the Capture One support. Until now i used Lightroom to convert to DNG and then import into C1 - but it is not ideal.
Anyway - I do not regret having jumped in the Z!

You may want to use Adobe's DNGConverter instead, as it officially supports Z7 while LR does not. I also think that Capture NXD does a better job. Maybe you can use Capture NXD for the very best images only.<snip>

thanks...I have tried to push Phase One, and the support guy would pass it one to the right department, so hopefully its just waiting,well.. I prefer the funny side of taking pictures. But it is true that the Z will have an impact on what i have in my bag on various occasions.
I had a D850 with me as well, but the z was the one I used most. Certainly because of the excellent finder and the resulting wysiwyg.
I used various lenses - sometimes the 24-70 kit one - otherwise mostly the old 17-35.
IBIS? seems to work well, nothing special to be mentioned, just switched it of while using a tripod.
The FTZ is flawless, the UI off the Z is really similar to the D bodies.
I did not need to clean the sensor despite having had a windy or sometimes stormy time and indeed changing lenses sometimes.

Thanks Thorkil, they are rather over cooked but I have noticed that as winter strikes here, I get really hungry for colour - until the first snow, then I go all B&W...:thumbup: very nice Tim, and IBIS/tripod/"shutterslapping" ?? ..and the Z24-70 I presume?

..well, while a bit boring to wait for the C1 update, I went out yesterday evening, just to try to take some first shots with the Z7 with the 35/1.8S, even though it has to be Jpegs straight out of the camera,
IBIS on, the cameras standard jpeg-processing, nothing done except a small bit of cropping at the 2-windows, just sized through C1pro11.3...I like that lens (!)
Almost forgot telling that this camera seems totally to fulfill my long time dreams, carrying, handling and imaging...feeling convinced that this will be a long time friendship, the friendly connections seems already being there
PS and Electronic First Curtain Shutter ON (even though a very nice shuttersound)
....

These photos appear to have been taken with a Sony camera. Wrong thread?Smoke traveling down from the Paradise fire makes for some strange light:
Yep - sorry. Using a Sony, but wandered over here and forgot where I was . . . :facesmack:These photos appear to have been taken with a Sony camera. Wrong thread?
