      …spent a summer in the Black Hills of South Dakota and everyone drank Coors Light ( and Jagermeister ). ???
      It was the only beer that would freeze in a beer fridge at the pub, all water and low alcohol volume. 😉

                  That Z6 is the new Nikon Porsche..as good as the D750 is–--the mirrorless is next level

                    We've been eyeing up the Nikon mirrorless for a few years now…...

                    @Steve, it would be interesting to see what the shutter count is on the 750's…..

                    (The shutter count is stored within each photo's EXIF data. All you need to do is take a photo and upload the file to www.myshuttercount.com. It'll then tell you exactly what number that particular photo is.)

                      @Giles  I will take a note of the shutter count before we send the D750 off for service, plus get some good comparison shots using both the new and old cameras

                          Some comparison pics of the new IH-101-JV (launching today) with our new Nikon Z6 and 'old' NIkon D750. All shot with the same setting on camera, same lens and same Lightroom settings. These comparison pics are exported 72dpi 1200x1200. You can see the overall sharpness bringing out more detail in the first pics and in the 'fluff' on the denim on the close-up (and more so on the Hi-Res close up).

                          I think the difference here isnt so obvious mainly due to the quality of the lenses we are using. But I have started using the Z6 outside, and there is more of a difference then. I will take some comparison pics outside and post the results…

                            @Steve Interesting, the macro shots are all fairly similar w. a touch more detail on the Z6, but the colouring on the 50mm shots appears to vary drastically. The colour on the D750 seems truer to the 18oz in life (looking on my phone screen at least), but I'm guessing these are unedited (or presets need a tweak for the new camera) so possibly just a white balance thing to be corrected on the Z6

                              @LewisStonehouse yes pics are unedited, so the presets will be adjusted. I always find it interesting how different the colour can be with different cameras, even from the same company

                                They both look really close to the untrained eye for sure.
                                Like you said..maybe the outdoor shots will be more obvious…but lets be honest.
                                Both cameras are outstanding
