I debated last year about updating my D-800 to the D-850, or the Z7. Instead, got a great deal on a new HP printer they were closing out. My old is going on 12 years and still kicking strong. <br /><br />I figured I would wait and see how mirrorless improves in the next iteration.Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10769809692351890869noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33929660.post-20955504862067384722019-04-18T15:10:42.278-04:002019-04-18T15:10:42.278-04:00John, not really extreme.

The shadow slider is most of the way up, black slider didn't need anything, exposure slider up a modest 31 points.Carl Weesehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12291898089206705608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33929660.post-3900345033722867152019-04-18T12:50:35.257-04:002019-04-18T12:50:35.257-04:00Did you have to do much pushing/pulling in RAW to ...Did you have to do much pushing/pulling in RAW to get the level of detail you got?<br />Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10769809692351890869noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33929660.post-69016026712668891462019-04-18T06:26:56.303-04:002019-04-18T06:26:56.303-04:00MikeR, I got a G9.

I wish the new sensor and all the other features could have been kept in a form factor close to the GX7 but it obviously wasn't going to happen. The G9 is big and heavy for 4/3s format, but it's still compact in absolute terms—the camera with the "Olympus quartet" (12,17, 25, 45mm) plus spare battery and card all fit in a tiny Ona Bowery bag.Carl Weesehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12291898089206705608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33929660.post-7254487340556163872019-04-17T21:21:58.920-04:002019-04-17T21:21:58.920-04:00I think I recall that a few years ago you had a Lu...I think I recall that a few years ago you had a Lumix GX7. Would the new camera be a GX9, or did you leap to Fuji? (I know, it's not about the camera. But, I will be selling off a bunch of lenses, and my GX7, to buy a GX9, so I just wondered.)MikeRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15230112561510206950noreply@blogger.com
