finally! my new nikon z8 camera #nikonz8



Hey guys,

Check it out!

Finally, I've got myself the new Nikon Z8 camera!

Before that, I was thinking of getting the latest Sony Alpha 7RV. I did bulked at having to buy new lenses for it. And, they were pretty expensive. So, when Nikon announced the Z8 with an overall, same specs as the Z9, I was adamant about getting it.

Instead of switching to another eco-system. I stuck with Nikon. I already have several lenses that I bought for my Nikon Zfc. Regrettably, I'm selling off my Zfc and P950. The Nikon Coolpix P950 was my first-ever camera and the start of my love for photography.

You can check out some of the pictures and videos I took with the Nikon P950 and Zfc on my YouTube channel here. I recently went to Hatyai Thailand and got the chance to do street photography with my Zfc. It was a blast and I really enjoyed the holiday. 

You can check the Hatyai Thailand holiday videos on this link.

I think, I took some good photos and I really like some of them. Especially, at the floating flea markets. You can check out some of the photos below:







I'm just an amateur photographer and still learning about photography. Despite that, I decided to upgrade my camera to the most advanced I could afford and that is the Nikon Z8. I took some sample photos and you can check some of them below:




I'm really loving the Nikon Z8. I love learning how to use it and take better photographs and videos. I still prefer taking JPEGs and 4K videos instead of raw. As I'm the lazy and impatient type. Anyway, for the videos, I need to use more advanced editing software.

I'm taking a step-by-step approach to learning how to use the camera and also the editing process. Anyway, I don't think I can edit the 8K vids with my current Mac m1 pro with only 16 GB of RAM. I'll need more storage space too.

I'm not really in a hurry as I have a lifetime to learn and improve my photography and videography. You can watch my growth with the videos and pictures I'll be taking throughout the years I'll put up here or on my main YouTube channel. So, don't forget to subscribe and share!

That's all for now. Happy photography and videography!

i bought nikkor z dx 50-250mm for my nikon z fc


NIKON NIKKOR Z DX 50-250mm f/4.5-6.3 VR Ultra-Compact Long Telephoto Zoom Lens with Image Stabilization for Nikon Z Mirrorless Cameras

Hey guys,

Check it out!

I finally bought a Nikkor z dx 50-250mm for my new retro design Nikon Z fc camera. It fits and works really well. I have yet to really try out the lens as I'm just waiting for the holidays to go out and have fun taking pictures and videos with it.

Anyway, it's been raining heavily for the past few weeks. I got to try out the camera with the 28mm SE lens kit and I'm satisfied with the camera and the lens. It's pretty sharp and my first time using this kind of camera with a prime lens.

I am a newbie photographer and love going cycling to nature parks and beaches to take photos with my camera. Yes, you can use your mobile phone to take photos which I do too. But, using a camera is a whole other level of fun!

It's a pretty expensive hobby though. But, I discovered third-party companies that sell good affordable lenses. Expensive lenses cost thousands of dollars which I can't afford. Unless you're a pro who earns money working full-time as a professional photographer.

There is news of a Nikkor Z 40mm special edition for the Zfc. I might get that when it comes out maybe next year. Meanwhile, guess which lens I just ordered the other day and now waiting to arrive? It's the VILTROX 13mm F1.4 f/1.4 Nikon z Mount Lens, Super Wide Angle Autofocus APS-C Lens! 

Yup! Can't wait for it to arrive probably next week and try it. Already plan to use it to take pictures and videos of the Xmas tree and decorations near my area. Most reviews and sample I see shows how wide it is. The video looks great and sharp too.

Now, I pretty much have all the lenses that I like and wanted. One day, I hope to get my hands on the Sony a7rV camera. With its latest AI processing unit, 61MP, advanced AF, and even the LCD screen that can be set any which way you want. 

The Sony a7rV is the ultimate pro-level camera that I can't afford and also even though I"m not a professional photographer, I still want it. Lol. Well, I love tech and the camera capabilities really intrigue me. Also, it's good to learn something new. That's why I'm so into photography right now.



Apple MacBook Pro 14" with Liquid Retina XDR Display, M1 Max Chip with 10-Core CPU and 24-Core GPU, 32GB Memory, 512GB SSD, Space Gray, Late 2021

Frankly, I thought the Nikon Z Fc would be my last big purchase of the year 2022. Turn out, it's the Apple Macbook pro with an M1 pro chip. At first, I thought of getting the latest Macbook pro with an M2 chip. But, after doing some research, it's better I get the 14-inch with M1 Pro chip.

The main reason behind my choice was, I rather spend an extra couple hundred more to get the M1 pro chip. I need it to edit my photos and videos which I always shoot with 4K and sometimes RAW. I tried doing some video editing on my HP Ryzen 7 AMD with 8GB Ram laptop and it's not good enough!

I probably, need to upgrade my ram but everyone knows for video editing and photography, a MacBook pro is much better. And, the M1 pro seems to be much better than even the latest M2 chip which I'm not saying is not good. Well, hopefully, and praying to get it by next week. Till then, to-da-loo!

What do you guys think?
