Photos from a quiet walk in the woods yesterday with the Nikon Z6III and 20mm f/1.8 S. Apologies for the lack of posts lately. I’m dealing with a few things behind the scenes at the moment and don’t really feel capable of writing anything meaningful right now. Sometimes just getting outside with a camera is … Read more
Over the past few months, I’ve been building out a wildlife setup that fits how I actually shoot here in Scotland. I’ve selected from the best Nikon Z lenses primarily for my Z8. Most of my time has been spent walking — exploring woodland, open areas, and edges where you might come across something rather … Read more
I’ve spent a lot of time shooting with the Nikon Z6 III alongside my Nikon Z8, and one of the biggest challenges when using two bodies regularly is keeping them set up in a way that feels consistent. If they behave differently, it quickly starts to interfere with muscle memory — which is the last … Read more
The Nikon Z6 III is the most balanced full-frame camera you can buy right now in terms of performance and price. It sits between the Zf and the Z8, but in reality it’s probably the smartest choice for most people. Compared to the Z8 (full Nikon Z8 review here), it gives up very little that … Read more

Last updated 19th May 2026: After having shot both the Z6III and Z8 a lot more since moving to Scotland, I still agree with the conclusion of this article but the more I use the Z8, the more I prefer it. Ever since the Nikon Z8 was announced, I’ve had this nagging desire to own … Read more
Last Updated: May 2026 — Added extended long-term impressions after moving back to Scotland, including wildlife use alongside the Nikon Z8 in the Scottish Highlands and further observations on autofocus, ergonomics and real-world field use. I’ve been shooting Fujifilm for over a decade now, and I still love my X-T5 — but the Nikon Z6III … Read more
One of the great things about the Nikon Z6III (which I reviewed here) is that it really doesn’t require much to be incredibly comfortable, durable and give professional results.

Fujifilm X-T5 vs Nikon Z6III – Which Should You Buy?
