Hi everyone! Thank you for your helpful replies. Lot of food for thoughts. I need to get my hands on a Z6 iii and a Z8 to get a feel for the cameras. Will keep you posted. Feel free to add more! Cheers Antoine

Hi everyone, My trusted D7000, after 12 years of service and mistreatment, has earned a well-deserved retirement. I shoot a bit of everything, kind of everywhere, when I can (~50 dives per year, mostly during travels), using a Tokina 10-17 (holding together thanks to duct tape and faith mostly) and a Nikon 105mm. Still 99% of the time. You can see some of my (favourite) images on insta @antoine.de.brisbane I am considering moving to either a used Sony A7 RV or a new Nikon Z6 iii, with a macro lens, and for WA either a WWL1-B/ WACP-C and/or a Fisheye behind the smallest dome that works (weight and size considerations for travel). Topside, I shoot a Z6 ii these days, and I have a number of old and newish lenses (24-70, 50, 70-200). Reasons for moving from the D7000: - it's almost dead, and my Nauticam casing is falling apart... - better autofocus - having one camera for uw and topside - gas A7 pros and cons I've identified: + 61mp.. beautiful WA, macro crop baby crop! + autofocus + Seems it works great for a lot of people out there - new system, ergonomics etc - 61mp, like really, I don't need that.. - adapting my Nikon lenses topside Z6: + Nikon fan boy (and long time user..) + Autofocus + Cheaper? - Dynamic range? Since I intend to keep it for a long long time, I'd love to hear your thoughts before I push the shutter. Especially from Z6 iii users, if there are any out there.. Ps: Z8, too big, too expensive (but maybe I'm wrong) So any help appreciated:) Thanks in advance!

Hi everyone, I'm Antoine, formerly from Brisbane, but back in France for the last few years. Been a long time lurker of the community (probably more than 10 years I think). Looking forward to be a bit more active 🙂 Cheers!
