It's very small.

It absolutely is. Nikon have outdone themselves.

Sorry, I never used E-mount lenses.

No, they are cute.

Hey, the grip was over 100 USD with shipping, way more expensive than the Small Rig, but I don't like to do any DIY. I feel it fits best with the camera, it's the same design and material.

I will remember that! Thank you! 🙏

Can you please tell me where to get the black grip!

That's called crop factor. If you're using a 50mm on an Apsc sensor camera , you'll have a 75mm~80mm ,because the sensor on a full frame (35mm film) is ×1,6 times bigger than APS-C . You'll also have a bigger dept of field, in other words you won't have the same bokeh . So if you want a 50mm f2 in full frame , you should probably (if I got it right) get a 32mm F1.4 for the same effect for an APS-C camera .(you'll need wider focal length and bigger aperture)

@@o.l4890 Its besides the crop factor. I knw what crop fctor is.. 1.5 for nikon 1.6 for canon, 2x for micro four 3rds. etc.. 😁

I prefer the Nikon grip, because it's all black and has the same design. Isn't Small rig silver at the bottom?

@@TaipeiGeek Sorry. I meant the Nikon grip. My bad.

It already expired. I think best is you search eBay or Map Camera.

Yeah, I love it so much. I'm so careful with it, don't want to damage it, haha.

I ordered it from Japan via eBay. It's not available anywhere else, which is a bummer. It's expensive, but high quality and the material is exactly the same as the camera, so it's a perfect fit. It makes the camera heavier, but I feel the bottom which is a bit plasticky, is now protected with solid metal. I love it :)

Do you have the link

@@KevTheHeartist Can't find it anymore, sorry. But I think you can search Map Camera.

They don't? That's weird. It took a while before they were available in Taipei. I saw Singapore and Hong Kong got them like a month earlier. But once I saw them on Nikon Taiwan's website, I went to get one in the Nikon shop in Taipei. And I just got my Nikon GR1 grip from Japan, you can see that one in my today's video.

Tag me once you get the 26mm pancake… it’ll probably be a while until Nikon officially releases it, but it’ll be worth the wait!

@@Telly26 Thanks for your comments and I'll sure do. I'll post some more Z fc Black videos soon. I also bought the FTZ II adapter as well as the Shoten NF to NZ adapter and will try out all my F glass.

I'm not sure I would dare to use that.

@@TaipeiGeek I'm lucky that I've ask you about this Actually I totally removed the fungus on my Lens using Fujicolor Lens Cleaning solution

Yes, you can. You will not have autofocus, but everything else will work, that is setting of the aperture via scroll wheel, and the exif data will be available, too.

@@TaipeiGeek thanks

Thanks. People forget this fact, and always talk like Nikon is some kind of huge company like Canon and Sony. I've actually checked the annual revenue data by year, and this year their revenue will be about the same as in 2005. There was a huge revenue growth between 2006 and 2013 when it peaked, and from then it's going down every year, most likely bottoming out this year. So Nikon is back to where they were in 2005 before the digital camera revolution. All they need to do is get their overhead and production cost back to 2005 levels and they will be fine.

Well said! I expect a D880 next year, but I also hope for a D500 successor. Next year will be very exciting in terms of product launches.

Yes, it should be.

I wasn't able to make a comprehensive AF test of the two cameras. The first issue was both cameras have a Chinese language menu, and while I speak Chinese, reading a camera menu settings is too hard for me. I'm also not familiar with Canon's menu system to know what is the best AF setting. The Eye AF they had pre-set on the camera was fine, same as with the Nikon Z6 II. I don't think there is a big difference in AF performance between these two cameras. I also use Single point AF 99% of the time. I don't like Eye AF or Continuous AF, so those features don't matter to me. What is noticeable though is that the Z6 II has a better build quality, it feels more premium compared to the R6. The second noticeable difference is the EVF, the Nikon's really feels so natural. The R6 is not bad, but Nikon's is better.

@@TaipeiGeek thank you for replying..

@@avdhootrohite6031 Thanks for your exprience.

Thanks Matt. I'd really love to get one right now, and although I have the funds, it's hard to justify this to the missus, as I really don't want to waste money during a pandemic for a hobby that I can only enjoy in a limited way right now. So I will wait until next year... wait and wait, and watch your channel in the mean while, and continue to use my D810.

@@TaipeiGeek I think demand with be very high for the Z6 II it could take until next year before they are easy to get hold of. :)

@@MattIrwinPhotography Yes, the pandemic and the economic uncertainty will definitely hold off people from buying unnecessary tech, or they will buy cheaper (like the Z5). In any case, Nikon is now so much better positioned. If you compare 2 bodies and 3 lenses in November 2018 and now 2 years later 6 bodies, 18 lenses, 2 tele converters and 2 battery grips. Nobody can say now that the system is limited.

@@MattIrwinPhotography I wrote a little blog post about it and added some pictures taipeigeek.blogspot.com/2020/11/visiting-taipei-international-photography-and-media-equipment-exhibition-2020.html

Yes, the focus ring is one of the best I ever had. It's an all metal lens, high quality.
