Great images Jayanond! These new Nikon Z cameras are really nice. I?m in the 
second week with my Z6, and am really liking it. I shot some Eagle images 
last week and it did quite well tracking the in flight images.  The learning 
curve is different, but I am getting there.  Just using it with F mount 
lenses till now, even my Tamron 70-200 works fine. Just received my M to Z 
mount adapter tonight and they work quite well in my first images around the 
house.  Planning to  put them to the test tomorrow.
