Any camera with a metal chassis would work in space, who cares. Even the Hasselblads worked as is, they were only modified for ergonomics and weight.

The Z9 and Z8 had multiple recalls and jared polin went out of his way to show that they have worse autofocus than the canon r8 of all cameras and worse IQ than most other cameras until ISO 400.

Like I just wouldnt fucking buy one. Not because I need more but because I need exactly as much but wont be paying $3k+ for a piss poor implementation of what I need. That is a lot of fucking money for the exact same autofocus as a cheaper canon or worse IQ than everything else because nikon is retarded. Even a sony is a better choice than a nikon. Their manufacturing quality is also ass. Top screens fail early, EVFs come canted or work loose, rubber swells and peels off… made in thailand QUARITY

I once A:Bd a nikon Zf and sony a7c OG (not the a7cii). The a7c had better autofocus and was only one stop behind in stabilization. I disregarded both and bought a canon because both struggled with white balance in the camera store.

Space snaps arent super demanding for quality or crutches (they used entombed hasselblads last time) but they definitely had to have japanese staff, not nikons usual thai ladyboy slaves, go through and rebuild these cameras for the rigors of the mission.

They’re improving but they basically admitted how bad they sucked.

17x more accurate and 3.5x faster but:
This lens performs EXACTLY like its contemporaries from sony and canon.
And its predecessor performed exactly like every other Z lens!
Meaning nikons first wave of AF lenses are on average absolute junk and they indirectly admitted it

It may be that the body tech wasnt as bad as everyone thought and nikon actually failed at something so basic canon mastered it in 2006.

It was never really used in the elements. It just sat on a tripod. Most high shutter count cameras are used in studios or machine gunned at indoor events.

That's because Nikon was better to start with, duh! Too bad it's kind of a useless marketing metric to begin with.

We all know that’s not true

PREview, as in what you see in the EVF before you take the photo.

Nikon has zebras in video mode, but not allowed in still photo, which is retarded.

Creationism is descended from humans and humans only being bioengineered by aliens larping as gods. Life in general did evolve. Just not us. We were created and recreated following engineered cataclysms, as part of an attempt to recreate a prior species that lived on mars and died out in an interplanetary nuclear war between the martians and the original mollusc-like civilization on earth (they used primarily organic technology and were wiped out by a genetic contagion that devolved them after they built nukes on the moon and launched them at mars). They have since been succeeded by saurans and humans.

The earth is round, space is real, and jesus was an android repaired and reanimated with remote power. The lacerta files were controlled disclosure. I am a former CIA agent. Trust this or don’t.

It’s mostly a marketing stunt. They go for the lowest bid and hand pick and modify some units because the brand perception gains and sales boosts are worth more than however little money they lose providing a small space program with cameras and tech support.

Actual mass market nikon gear is 0% qualified to go into space.

I think that "taking an image of earth" came up on their little american tally list and they are only allowed to follow the list because they can't think for themselves. God forbid taking a single image in good lighting condition, taking like 10s off their time, the list says we clog toilet so we clog toilet!

It wasn't real

>Radiation (such as X-rays, gamma rays, or cosmic rays) exposes photographic film similarly to light, causing it to darken, fog, and lose contrast. It acts on silver halide crystals, creating a latent image that appears as graininess, streaks, or a washed-out, ruined image when developed, appearing as "background noise" or total blackness

Several days in space has much less effect on film than an airport baggage scan. Apollo proved that cosmic rays don't exist since we can't see their impacts on the black part of their photos.

Yeah they're two separate shots with different settings but they were taken at roughly the same time. My point was that it's a shot of the earth at night.

just record the blinkies on all your jpegs!

>>knowing how to set exposure without highlight blinkies is too hard for me
You only shoot RAW so getting highlights correct isn't important. You wouldn't use a RAW editor that can't show you clipping before export, while saying it's a "skill issue" to want clipping warnings in-camera.

Guide me a bit here anons. I've been eyeballing cameras for about six months now. Originally was thinking R5 for cropping, but I think I can start smaller for now and trade up later if needed. Save some money for now. Use is mainly going to be hiking and shooting, animals, landscapes, nature. First trip will be key west next month and I want to document it right
