Nikon zf

I recently had the pleasure of adding the brand new Nikon ZF to my collection, and it's been an absolute joy to shoot with.

The camera's predominantly metal design and tactile buttons immediately felt familiar, especially coming from my background with Fujifilm cameras.

For those who know me, you know I'm a dedicated Fujifilm shooter. After transitioning from my XT-3 to the XH-2 over a year ago, I found myself missing the physical dials and the tactile exposure triangle.

The moment I picked up the Nikon ZF, I knew I was going to enjoy using it. However, after my first outing with the camera—just two hours after purchasing it—I realized something was missing. The ergonomics left my hands feeling a bit cramped and sore.

So I shot down to my local camera store and picked up the SmallRig ZF L-bracket for 60 bucks. This simple addition instantly elevated the camera's ergonomics, making it comfortable enough to shoot for hours on end.

Here are a few shots from my first outing with the Nikon ZF…
