For this post I thought I’d combine old and new to see how well old technology works when combined with a modern high megapixel camera like the Nikon Z7ii. The Nikon PB-6 bellows unit was released in 1983, 37 years before the introduction of the Z7ii, so I thought it would be interesting to see how the two can be used together.

Nikon has a reputation for making some of the best ultra wide angle lenses available. Nikon released the Nikkor Z 14-24 f/2.8S lens in November 2020. Is the new lens better than its predecessors?

After months of waiting for stock to arrive in the UK I received my Nikon NIKKOR AF-S 500 f/5.6 PF ED VR lens. Unpacking the lens from its trademark gold box my first impressions were how small and light the lens was.

Nikon has created the perfect lens with the AF-S 300 f/2.8 IF ED VR II lens. Its optical performance, especially sharpness, is exceptional, autofocus is instantaneous and vibration reduction is highly effective even with the full range of teleconverters.

In a previous post I wrote about selling my Nikon NIKKOR F-mount lenses in order to make space and offset the costs of moving to a fully mirrorless system. After a while searching various online camera stores I finally was able to replace my older lenses with new Z-mount equivalents - well almost.

After spending around two years testing the Nikon Z6 mirrorless interchangeable lens camera (MILC) due to weight lifting issues after a serious medical episode I have finally decided that I am ready to fully embrace the mirrorless era in photography.

After using the Nikon Z6 with the Nikon Nikkor Z 14-30 f/4 S zoom lens I thought it was time to review the performance of the lens and give my thoughts on how the lens performs and what I like and dislike about the Z 14-30 f/4 S..
