QUOTE(BenSow @ Nov 6 2019, 12:03 PM) I see most of them offering Z6 + FTZ + 24-70/4 at MYR9+K, quite a bit below the RRP 12K. Has this been awhile now or is that always the case? I'm currently living in Aus now and the price here is closer to 12K after conversion (not to mention no free XQD card and reader like malaysia) so if I do decide to get it I'll get it once I'm home. I think my current lens choices can vouch for my style, I currently have a 35/1.8 and 10-20/3.5 for my apsc because I mainly do street/portraits and long exposure (both urban and night trails). I am able to save up for the Z6 system but the dilemma is just - do I need to? The tech junkie inside me wants the best of the best of the best Then take a step back and check if u have GAS syndrome. Do u value image quality or shiny new stuff to play? Budget wise can u take a hit? Do u actually need a new camera or better invest in accessories like filter, tripod or ticket to bali that probably get u more interesting photos than using Z6 to take pictures of mamak food? I used to be like u..... Until I realise kinda pointless when posting on FB and Instagram and there are teenagers with sht camera phone who have better photos than I do, lol. If u do decide to upgrade to FF, it's not exactly wrong choice either so don't dwell on it too much as long u know what to expect going forward.

That's a very good point, because I feel like I'm lacking in the filter department and may also splash some cash for the mouth watering mavic mini Right now I'm just waiting for the Z50 to be available for testing then I can have a better idea. Thanks for your 2 cents

I mean, its still crop sensor, plus whatever you can do what you want now with current set up right? Unless of course you need the 4K30 video capability then it is different discussion.

Yeah but with my current setup I'm beginning to feel limited technologically. I have photos that turn out bad because I couldn't verify focus on the low res screen + lack of focus peaking, doing landscape shoots without built in bracketing etc.

yeah my eyes now also cannot see far things especially in lower light like 6pm sun set now, have to rely on beep beep sound to listen the focus on track or not, now feel like EVF tech matured enough for me to plan get a better body...
and lighter weight XD
