    Sometimes you stumble upon a channel and wonder why they don't have a huuuuuuge following when their work is so good, and this is one of those channels. You deserve so many more followers. Love your work, the images are simply stunning. I've had the Z8 for a while now, mainly wildlife, and a bit of landscape - awesome bit of kit - hope you enjoy yours 👍 One new subscriber here 👍

      Thank you very much for the kind words. Really appreciated. And thank you for the sub! Numbers slowly creeping up towards 1000 🙂

      To be fair if I wasn't already invested in Sony I would consider the Nikon

    Hi Garry it sounds like a decent upgrade from the Z7. It's interesting you listing all the 'extra' features, a lot of them have been on Fuji for a few years 😊. Custom buttons, one button to clear the LCD display, long exposures up to 15 mins. Fully articulated screen, but that sensor shield is a fantastic idea and hopefully one to be added to future Fuji camera's. I actually thought of that about 5 or 6 years ago, I should have approached the camera manufacturers I could have possibly retired by now 😂. Looking forward to watching future vlogs with the Z8

    • @garrysugdenphotography
      @garrysugdenphotography  Місяць тому +1

      To be honest most, if not all of those features are on newer Nikons. Problem was that I was using an original Z7. In modern camera terms, positively Victorian 🙂

    Great video - good to see that you are happy with the new camera and the features that are useful to you. If they make life easier to get the shots you want to take, that's worth a whole load of £££. The Falls of Bruar are a lovely place - it's been a couple of decades (or more) since I was there, so I'll have to be making a trip back there. Great images - love the swirling patterns and the use of mixed shutter speeds too.

    While super hung for NIKON Z8 landscape setup, I came across your video and I even though I was looking for a video on Z8 landscape settings, I watched it to the end. Amazing photos. Is it possible to share your Z8 settings.

    • @garrysugdenphotography
      @garrysugdenphotography  2 дні тому

      Thank you for the kind words. Probably a bit difficult share on my settings in this reply but what I did was watch a video from Julian Baird (here on UA-cam).... he not only goes through the setup but also provides a .pdf file of all the settings. I set my camera up the same and then over time I've adjusted a few things to suit my style of shooting.

    Welcome to the Z8 gang. The biggest buy for me was the two way tilt screen. Worth its weight in gold just for that alone.

  • @davidrushworth658
    @davidrushworth658 Місяць тому +1

    Stunning images.........congrats on the Z8, I traded my Z6ii for the Z8 when it first came out. I've paired it up with a 14-30mm, 24-120mm, 70-200mm and 20mm f1.8 for astro. You will love the 8. Autumn in Scotland is amazing!

  • @AgillexUK
    @AgillexUK Місяць тому +1

    Thanks for your practical review of the Z8. Like you were, I've been agonising whether to upgrade from a Z6II but some of the incremental improvements you identify (like having the spirit level and histogram on the same screen) make it easier to justify, particularly as the price is falling (as a Yorkshireman!). Good stuff

    • @garrysugdenphotography
      @garrysugdenphotography  Місяць тому +1

      It’s the sum of all those little things that won me over. There are a lot more features that I’m slowly discovering and liking.
      Purchased mine from Panamoz. Fantastic price and service. 👍🏻

  • @lightsandtones
    @lightsandtones Місяць тому +1

    Congrats for the new toy! I always wanted to photograph those kind of circular long exposure leaves but somehow I couldn't find them. Maybe it only works in Scotland. :)

    • @garrysugdenphotography
      @garrysugdenphotography  Місяць тому +1

      I’m always on the look out for them but that has to be one of the best I’ve found. And definitely the biggest.

  • @alanbudge
    @alanbudge Місяць тому +1

    Beautiful location and great shots. Still use and love the Z7. Impressive improvements on the Z8 but even buying used, it would cost £2k to upgrade and I just can’t justify that just now.

    • @garrysugdenphotography
      @garrysugdenphotography  Місяць тому

      That’s exactly the situation I was in. I was just lucky enough to find the money and when the wife says “treat yourself” I wasn’t going to argue 🙂

  • @MossfordPhotography
    @MossfordPhotography Місяць тому +1

    I was at Falls of Bruar recently with my Z8. Paired with 24-120 f/4 I think it's on elf the best combinations I've ever used.
