Georgia Photographer LATE NIGHT Live Stream 12 - Nikon Zf Camera Talk & Nikon FTZ 3 Rumors

[@randallbrander8157]

Watching on the Rewind. I made a whole bunch of videos yesterday and I was tired of computering and went to bed. Then got up and did some more.

[@randallbrander8157]

What a lot of people do not talk about is that the old glass is smaller size. You can carry a power bank with USB-C Cable Connection to keep it charged. Then the only thing to worry about is if you have enough storage on your Micro SD Card.

Finding out that a notebook for keeping information is priceless plus it is less stickier than placing the sticky notes on the forehead. Doesn't stick that well either. Then have to put mirror on the camera so I can read them. Cheers!

[@Ron.Durant]

Well I missed another stream. Watching the replay now.

[@davidsaylors]

Sorry, that is the reason for my comment about making a schedule towards the end of the stream. A lot of people dont watch simply because it was unannounced. Thank you Ron.

Oh my goodness....If that af-d to z motorized adapter happens...Z camera sales will skyrocket.

[@davidsaylors]

I couldn’t agree more!!!

[@randallbrander8157]

I never knew CB Radio had a Color Screen. In fact my old TV Box never looked as good either. Cheers!

[@randallbrander8157]

I have heard that there was a Third Party was putting the adapter out but it fizzled. But Nikon still has a problem with that neck. FTZII removed it. So Now I have two DSLR's a D500 & Df where I do not have to worry about using an adapter. Cheers!

[@randallbrander8157]

Some necks do come off though. It becomes a problem when changing the battery from the Tripod.

[@randallbrander8157]

I am just missing the 400mm f/2.8 or f/4.5 or the 80-400mm or the 200-500mm Monster for the F Mount. Loving the 500mm PF and 70-200mm f/2.8G FL ED, 150mm, 180mm, 300mm but come to the point just want everything.

[@davidsaylors]

Yeah, that 400mm would be a fun one to have. I bet the new 80-400mm would be a killer too.

[@randallbrander8157]

I do not edit much. I worry about the compression of the file more with best quality. I use Ecamm Live Pro and set the recording speed and let the program do the rest. Instead of typing in corrections I just pause the video and My Voice SAYS "This is User Error Fellow again" and speak the correction. Great Stream as always!

How is the laptop memory compared to the desktop for your Mint Linux or Ubantu Studio?

[@davidsaylors]

Not near as much, but it is plenty to use it. The laptop has a i7 CPU and 24GB or RAM and the desktop has some sort of AMD chip (much older) and 64GB of ram. I suspect they will perform very similar to each other with possibly the edge going to the much new notebook computer just because of more efficient engineering...

[@randallbrander8157]

I've used the Dark Table and Gimp and Nikon Suite of applications. I do the minimal either Brighten or Darken the files and maybe change the name of the photo. Do You keep your photos or do You trash it? Do You Copyright the Photos? Are You Sick and Tired of Me commenting all of the time? Cheers!

[@davidsaylors]

I keep everything. I have all the raw files, all the culls…everything. I just create two folders in the main folder for the event called culls and raws and I sort them like that. Some should be deleted, but I usually dont out of habit. I put the copyright info in the camera but I never watermark me images. As for your questions, I dont mind a bit. I appreciate your time Randall. Thank you!!!
