Recently, I’ve sold the Sony RX100 and the Nikon Z6 cameras and used the money for a newer, much lighter Nikon called the Nikon Z50. The camera body is much smaller and lighter yet retains plenty of functionality while using a 16-50mm lens which is quite small. These are some test photos I took this afternoon around the house. The camera has some fun effects built into it too, some of which you can see in these photos. I will use the 16-50mm lens for a while to learn its capabilities but can always add one other lens as the lenses are interchangeable on this body. More to come.






That’s great you got a new camera John.

Thank you, Rudi!
That’s the best way to learn lens capabilities!
I like this 16-50mm lens, small and has a little bit of zoom.
Yes, when I first got a Nikon Ftn back in the Dark Ages, my first lens was a 90mm. I didn’t have any other lenses for a few months, but using that one lens for those months, I learned a lot about its capabilities. It was an eye opener. When I bought other lenses, I used them exclusively for a few weeks before I brought out the other lenses on hand.
The lens can make or break a good photo op!
Yes. The 90mm lens, for example had poor use in low light situations unless I loaded a high ASA film.
The bicycle looks great at the table. Lol
The camera creates some cool effects! I haven’t been riding the bike because it’s been too cold. Sucks!
All looks good!
Thanks Anneli! It was a good choice to sell the older cams.
Congrats on your new camera, John. Happy shooting!
Thanks so much! I’ll get it out tomorrow for more test shots wherever that may be.
