  • In today's POV I'm going on a trip down memory lane. A little over 2 years ago I started making Nikon Z 50 videos so it seemed like a good time to go back to the beginning! It was only fitting to go back and photograph the location of my very first POV video with the exact same set up. I really do believe that the Z 16-50mm and Z 50-250mm Kit Lenses are the best lenses you already have for the Nikon Z 50! These lenses were designed from the ground up for this camera body. While I stroll around taking pictures I also answered some of your questions from a recent Q&A. Thank you to those of you who participated in that. Hopefully I provided you with some useful answers. After 25 POV videos I feel like I'm just getting started. Excited for what the future brings for my photography journey! 🤍

    As always, thank you so much for the awesome video! I was wondering whether it would be possible to make a video using the nikon z50 "film recipes". I think they are under rated and should be explore more. Sometimes, I feel of just using jpegs to share with the family and friends.

    If I had an Instagram, I would ask you: what do you think of the Nikon z5? And why did you choose z50?

    • @RolandKaufmann
      @RolandKaufmann  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hey, the z5 is an interesting option. I went with the z50 because my budget was $1000 at the time. I was able to get it on sale for about that 2+ years ago. I also was interested because DX lenses are cheaper as well. If money is no issue, I’d recommend the z5. The z50 has been more than enough camera for me though. Still hasn’t slowed me down at all.

    Hi i recently bought the z50 with 16-50 and love it so far, like it's so lightweight, small yet old school and produce great images. Since I'm just a beginner, do you have a video regarding setting up the cam since I have a few doubts related to the autofocus. I'm into cars and often take panning shots in traffic.

    • @RolandKaufmann
      @RolandKaufmann  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Hey, that’s awesome! I don’t have a setup video but I’ll do my best to answer any questions you have. What are your autofocus issues? I’ve taken a bunch of panning shots with the Z50 of cars and all kinds of things… :).

      @@RolandKaufmann hey! Thanks for your reply...I tried some panning shots today and the camera worked really well, unfortunately I was stopped early by traffic police asking me not to take photos yk because they take bribes and all. Haha...guess they mistook me for a journalist which I am actually studying for... anyways I'm loving the z50 so far and will take some photos in another location where there's no traffic police otherwise what's the point of buying such an amazing camera.
      I also saw your vids and I'm quite jealous how you can move around freely and take such great pictures because in my country it's a bit difficult to do that.

      @@aakashmathur8100if you’re having trouble with focus try and make your focus point smaller to help your camera decide. I usually use single point AF so I can pick the exact area I want to be in focus. As for sharpness, it might be the case where you’re camera picked a shutter speed that is too slow for what you need. You may need to pick a faster shutter speed so your subject is not blurry. Let me know if that helps!
