Photography Blog posted their exhaustive review of the new Nikon Z7.

From the conclusion:

The Nikon Z7 feels like a camera which can be picked up by existing Nikon DSLR users without hesitation about how it works or what certain things do. While some things will be slightly different and may take some to get used to, all in all, it’s very much like using a smaller and lighter Nikon DSLR.

[…]

That said, the Nikon Z7 is probably not the perfect model for everybody. If you shoot a lot of sports or action, there are certainly better tracking focus and burst speeds on the market – both inside and outside the mirrorless realm. There’s also the issue of the single card slot – it seems likely that many will either learn to live with the risk of one of the cards corrupting, or wait even longer to see what Nikon produces next.

Says FroKnowsPh0to, aka Jared Polin in his Nikon Z7 unboxing video. I believe that. Among the many good things that come with any Canon camera, ergonomics are on top.

Has The Photography World Changed Forever Since Canon and Nikon Announced Their FF MILCs?

That’s what Jared Polin (aka FroKnowsPhoto) is asking.

I doubt it did, and that it will do.

Canon’s EOS R and Nikon’s Z6/7 new full frame mirrorless cameras while being exciting pieces of gear are not even close to revolutionary. We’ll see if these new FF MILCs will change the game.
