I put about 5K images on the old D5300, and it seemed time to see if there was something new about. All my lenses are Nikon, so Nikon was the vendor of choice. Mary was in a magnanimous mood, so I ordered a Nikon Z6 mirrorless body.

Other than that none of the buttons are in the right places, so far--so good. Compared to the D5300, it has some nice features like a histogram right in the electronic view finder and a much better resolution monitor screen. On the downside, the whole time I was tracking my (seemingly slow as snails) shipment from Nikon to me using the UPS apps, the weather here was beautiful. Now that the Z has arrived, skies are a lot cloudy and gray again. Oh, well. Spring is still approaching and the weather will improve soon. I am anxious to get out and see how it works!
