Nikon Z5

CAMERAS-Panasonic-GH5-SETUP-GUIDE-DIALS-Right-2222w

I've been wanting this camera for years...was waiting for the price to drop withing my professed $600 price range, and it finally did. I'm pretty sure this camera is going to become a classic, and I'm now testing as many lenses as I can afford (starting with low-budget ones). I still think vintage lenses provide the best quality for the price, but I may try some newer ones too.
