After months, I have control of the Zf. Manual (with sometimes 'record' shots or some in good light on Auto - that always goes to f/11!)). I CANNOT have any bracketing ON in order to be able to adjust EC Exposure Compensation! That is what I found, so far. There are a confounding combination of way to change or be blocked from changing basic settings!
I found I could not change ISO at all - if Auto ISO is on - I have to change ISO and turn off and turn back camera to change.

Im going to trade in my R6mk2 for a Nikon ZF as a hobby every day camera. I want to start using Nikon F1.4 lenses that cost so much less compared to Canon. Im not looking for critical sharpness so the Nikon 35 and 50 Z f1.4 will do just fine. Cant afford the Canon new F1.4 lenses. Not buying the ZF for video. For that I will keep my Canon R5 and my RF L lenses.
