Or a machine gun, if they think firing relentlessly is the answer.
Unless anyone really needs the ultra high resolution I would have thought the Z6 would satisfy most photographers needs.
That's my feeling...and probably choice
24mp on a full frame has long been the perceived sweet spot. It will be interesting to see if that still holds true with the Zbods.
My concern with the 45mp on a lightweight body is the risk of sloppy technique, ruining the benefit of the extra mp.
Yes I certainly agree with both of you wrt to machine gunning.
My D850 is used selectively and only where I really want/need this extra resolution. I am using it currently as all my other gear is in UK and I just have my alternative lenses and the D850 and 24-120 with me here in Spain.
The 24MP from my D600 if framed correctly gives great results, but the D800 and D850 dive comfort for cropping!
The debate has always been, whether high density pixel sensors are suitable for day to day photography as opposed to special event work, because of the greater precision in technique to maximise their potential quality.
I have long thought a 24mp full frame is ideal for general photography. The D750 fulfilled this role admirably for me for some time. To be honest I am kicking myself I got rid of it to 'concentrate' on Fuji. But that's another story.
