Which Z did you go for Eric?
Z7 or Z6. The 500mm will be great as you know but I will be interested to hear how you like/dislike the Z.
Z7.
I've had a brief look at the digital zoom on the FZ2000. Need to talk to Mike about his results because on THIS model you cannot use digital zoom when shooting Raw,
But that wouldn't matter, the interpolation and adjustments will be made BEFORE the as shot RAW image is converted to TIFF or JPEG so the output should be pretty much the same except you won't have as much latitude for post processing.
Except you have to accept the cameras jpegging artefacts....which can be more significant a contribution with smaller sensor, high iso situations, With raw, you have the opportunity to evaluate the image without any camera compression interference. But it's a bit academic cos you can't do it.
I think one of the distracting influences here is that cropping images from these sensor sizes is always risky. The IQ rapidly disappoears. Fill the frame and the images are great but cropping soon shows the limitations.
I guess that's why filling the frame with a digital zoom may be better than cropping....the interpolation may be helping!
