    Come on man. Hes scoring goals left right and center and you still had to nit pick. Too hard and unwarranted. 

    Why is it nitpicking ? It’s a major flaw in his game. Most elite strikers have the ability to get past defenders in a tight space and score.

    Poor Halaand. What more must you do to win Ballon d'Or? 

     

    Messi deserved it though. Its like Sachin Tendulkar winning the World Cup. What a sendoff. 

    Break the deadlock in games more often. And have an impact on the game the game is evenly balanced.

    arsenal fans deserve every kind of pain and misery. Bottling 8 point lead with 9 games to go is just embarrassing.

    It was 8 points with a game in hand which city won btw. And arsenal still had to play at the etihad so it was only a 2 point gap.

    Oh I like it, but full frame itch. Plus Z6ii does have better low light performance. 
    I also realised that however much I like those dials, I prefer to manipulate SS/Aperture using command rings/dials while shooting through the EVF. 

    Haven’t bought any - but rented the Z6ii + 24-120 from tomorrow for a week (short business travel coming up). 
    I’ll probably wait for Z6iii (unlikely soon) or Z8, which is rumoured to carry Z9s AF (much improved over Z6ii/Z7ii). 
    Also, the eye AF on Z6ii is much better than XT4. While clicking photos of kids playing, Z6ii almost had all keepers, while XT4 missed focus often. 
     

    Edit: Everything being said, still prefer the skin tones on Fuji (even though you do get that magenta shade). 

    The slow AF on the fuji could be lens. Though im not so sure.

     

    And the xt4 with the 27mm lens is extremely compact and easy to carry. So you can get shots in places where photography is "not allowed".

    @Anshul: Any good guide for Topaz Sharpen AI ? I am trying my hand with DXO PL5, and sending JPGs to Sharpen AI, even in standard mode, oversharpens the photo to hell ! All the parameters are kept at zero. 

    Share the photos that are getting oversharpened with auto settings. I've rarely seen that happen.

    Image quality from apcs setups are very close to FF these days. Personally, my favourite focal lengths are 24mm and 40mm. The nikon 24 1.8 goes for 80k while the sigma 16mm goes for 30K. It's hard to justify the extra cost imo. That said the 24-70 f4 is the best travel lens on the market and it's all you'll really need, so you cant go wrong with it. 

     

    Both are great options :fear1:

    What would you recommened for someone who wants to shoot close jewellery photos? I currently use nikond3400 with tamron prime lens, want to change.

    Depending on the photos you want to take, you'll need proper lighting equipment. Plenty of youtube tutorials for that.

    Which tools would you recommend for sharpening/editing ? I've been out of touch for over 4 years, and not inclined to purchase an Adobe sub for what is essentially a hobby. 

    Topaz Sharpen AI. Just open a folder of images in the software and with one click it does the rest.

    @Bird Bird Bird Fuji is great if you shoot both photos and video. The film simulations are amazing. And another advantage of fuji are the small, lightweight lenses. Though I'd get sony if I shot video only.

     

    I wouldn't look into image quality at this point though, those AI sharpening tools and median are magic and make $300 lenses look like $2000 lenses.
