Nikon Zf - geni.us/Nikon-Zf
Fujifilm X100VI - geni.us/FujifilmX100VI
Used X100VI (MPB) - geni.us/UsedFujiX100VI

After using Sophia’s Fujifilm X100VI - I wanted my own, but owning two of the same camera felt a bit silly, plus the dang camera is still sold out. Thus I decided to give the Nikon Zf a try after learning that they had their own recipes. One of my biggest draws to the Fujifilm system was enjoying photography without the need to spend even more time behind the computer editing - I do that plenty for work and many of the other images I take. The question is, are they as good or close to Fujifilm’s community recipes?
I admit I was quite late to the Nikon Zf party and feel like their recipe capabilities kinda flew under the radar? No better time than the present though! Last month I bought the Nikon Zf and took a 2+ week road trip across the west snapping images on the Nikon Zf.
This road trip didn’t consist of any dedicated photography, meaning the objective of many places was to enjoy them as we passed through without trying to time the perfect light or conditions. Thus many of the images you’ll find here resemble exactly what you’d get on a family trip, sight seeing, or just walking around to capture whatever catches your eye!
Every image in this video has been unedited with the exception of a possible crop or exposure adjustment. (besides two images)
