尼康好兄弟 注意看！這個人退了科莫多尼康Z卡口升級

What's up everybody, BT here We all know that Nikon just a few days ago announced That you can get a KX or a Raptor X In a Nikon Z mount And since the red Nikon Acquirement announcement was made I have been thinking Pining for a Komodo X with a Z mount If they ever make it, I'm gonna do it So when they announced it and they announced Not only could you just buy a Komodo X And a Z mount But you can send your pre-existing KX In for a mount upgrade I was like hell yes And registered as fast as I possibly could But after about a few days of strong deliberation And talking to a few friends that also had KX I've come to realize that right now It's just not the right decision for me to upgrade And there are a few reasons why And that's what we're gonna talk about First reason being I'm just not ready to buy Mount specific glass yet This has an RF mount And at the time I also had a Canon R5 A Canon R5C and a C70 So I had cameras that all shared the same mount And so it made sense to buy mount specific glass I had the 15-35mm 70-200mm And 51.2mm all RF And that made a lot of sense I can put them on here I can put them on my C70 I can put them on my R5C They all worked But at some point I sold all of the mirrorless cameras And so now they only worked on this camera But after some testing I realized that these Sigma ART EF lenses Actually performed better with autofocus Than my RF lenses And for what I was doing I wasn't doing intense autofocus things anyway I'm just sitting at a desk talking Or maybe I'm slightly moving in and around the frame From like 10 or 15 feet away But I wasn't doing anything crazy No sports No wildlife Nothing like that And so for the cost and the performance It made more sense to invest in these And get rid of the RF glass So right now all I have are PL universally adaptable Leica M universally adaptable And Canon EF which is universally adaptable So my current workflow isn't mount specific It will work on everything But bigger than that I'm totally satisfied with what I have right now Now to expand on the lensing Yes, the Nikon Z Dramatically opens up a lens catalog You've got Nikon Z You've got Nikon F But again because of the flange distance Now you have anything for Sony E mount That can be made And we're not talking just Nikon and Sony We're talking about all the third parties That make glass for each of those mounts Tamron, Sigma, Viltrox They're all doing incredible stuff However, I'm still happy with what I have I guess the second thing would be the cost Talking about lenses The cost comes into it Yes, while the update The conversion to go from the Canon RF mount To the Nikon Z mount Is the cheapest RED has ever offered Like that's the cheapest update Slash upgrade they've ever offered It's still 1600 bucks That's a lot of money And with the lenses that I have I would have to get different adapters For all of those to work on And that's going to cost me anywhere From like 2 to 600 bucks But let's be honest If you're doing this conversion You're thinking I can't wait to get the autofocus So that means you're now going to have to buy Nikon Z or Sony E glass To get that autofocus And even if you buy something like Those super cheap Sigma contemporary primes Or maybe even those super small And super cheap Sigma zooms For the Sony E You're looking at another Grand to 2 grand in new glass anyway And I just don't find myself going I need autofocus so bad right now That I need to invest Almost 3000 dollars between mounts Adapters and new autofocus capable glass And even though it is kind of separate The Nikon mirrorless ecosystem Is a part of this decision It doesn't really make much sense for me To convert this to a Nikon Z mount And buy a bunch of Z mount glass Without also getting a mirrorless body However, none of the bodies Are substantially better Or work better in my workflow Than what I already have now With my Lumix S5 Mark II I rented a Z8 And it's a really good camera And it is the better camera But it's not so substantially better That it makes sense for me to lose all the money Going from that system to the Nikon system Not to mention that The Z8 and the Z9 and the Z6 Mark III They don't have RED RAW in them already I think once that happens Me moving over is a more likely decision It's more probable And because of that Then it makes more sense To also convert this to a Z Or just buy a Z KX And also buy the glass To necessitate those mirrorless bodies And then finally kind of a wacky reason But one that really isn't talked about And you should probably know is If you have a Stormtrooper Your camera is certainly not going to look the same You see when you send it in to be converted They have to change out this front plate obviously But they're not offering any Z mounts In the Stormtrooper colorway They're all black So you're going to have an Oreo in a way That the front mount is black And then the rest of the camera is white But what I found out through talking to RED Is that's not just the case If it was just one plate I don't think it would be that big of a deal Because the mounts on the lenses on it But this plate This power on and off vent plate Is also being changed to black So these two plates would be black And then the rest of the camera would be white And when I asked RED like If they could just change it over And they were like no we can't RED Nikon if you're watching this I've talked to a few people That aren't doing their upgrade For literally just that reason I'm not but it is a reason And I would strongly consider Maybe going back and looking at this And making the change You would make a lot of us early investors The people that really invested early Into this camera system It would make a lot of us really happy I got this question a lot A bunch of Komodo OG users Asked why the OG wasn't getting a conversion They feel left out once again And it's simply power The Nikon Z mount actually draws power And it draws more power Than what those little BP batteries Can actually give the Komodo OG It's also the same reason Why they couldn't put the monitor on there But anyway yeah The mount requires power And the OG can't supply that power And so the OG is never going to get that mount Sorry just thought you should know Anyway I know it's a short video It's a quick video But I just wanted to weigh in Because people were asking me to weigh in That is why I am not upgrading currently But will I be Yeah probably in like a year or so It's kind of weird to say But it's cool to say I think over the next two or three years Lumix and Nikon are going to make The biggest waves in the camera world As far as I can see Those are my predictions And I'm super stoked for it Anyway that's it If you have any questions at all About the conversion The price Any details Anything like that Please let me know down in the comments below Until the next one I'll catch you later Peace
