So just to go back on topic.....
What I have surmised is that mirrorless aren't at their best for fast moving subjects and contre jour lighting. Their lesser weight is only relevant when fitted with Z lenses. But their reduced bulk makes them more portable. With these points in mind I am still leaning towards adding the Z6 to see if it dislodges the D850s place in my heart.
Another of our kitchen appliances went to that 'great scrapyard in the sky' yesterday. It's replacement arrived this afternoon with little ceremony or indeed inconvenience to me ....apart from the cost. 😠I will have to give my wallet time to catch it's breath and stop the palpitations but have decided to pop along to WEX and look at the Z6 with new eyes.
I think that's a fairly fair estimation. However, I would say that with the right settings and techniques the Z6 can be pretty good for action photography, especially (and I realise this might be counterintuitive and not realistic in all scenarios) when you have the chance to select an object for the camera to track.
I found if I told it to track a car or bird it does do a fairly decent job. But yeah, it isn't a DX/XXX. However, I would say that we might see further improvements with firmware, the last one certainly gave the AF system one hell of a boost.
