The last blog post got over 500 comments already and it is impossible to track the conversations. Here is a brief Nikon Zf “hands-on” report from someone who already handled the camera:
A couple of comments – yes, this is it. This man also has giant hands, as it looks no bigger than a Zfc in the pics. I found it to feel much larger than it appears here. Large enough the grip was necessary (imo). I would actually compare the ergonomics to a brick. That’s ok though…the Df felt like a brick and I still like that camera.
