Nikon Z7 Interview: Nikon 58mm f/0.95 should beat the Zeiss Otus performance
Lensvid interviewed Dirk Jaspar from Nikon at Photokina:
– The goal for the 58mm f/0,95 lens is to have maximum quality. That’s why it doens’t have autofocus.
– The 58mm f/0,95 will hopefully beat the Zeiss Otus in terms of Image Quality
– Dirk thinks mirrorless might take over the DSLR world in the long term

Dixie Dixon (http://dixiedixon.com) is a Pro Fashion Photographer, Nikon Ambassador, in this Interview she talks about using the new Nikon Z7 Full Frame Mirrorless camera during her Pro Fashion Photography shoot as part of the official Nikon Z7 launch campaign, adapting her favorite lenses including the Nikon 105mm f1.4, using the autofocus, using IBIS, using it for video. In this video I edit in some parts of her official Nikon Z7 video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Ern8… which shows “Behind the scenes” during her Nikon Z7 photo shoot. I also edit in some of the photos that she shot on there.
