I am looking for some help. I just did my backyard over and I really don’t need to put in and install an actual outdoor kitchen. Can anyone give me recommendations on high-end luxury grills that somewhat come ready-made with a counter countertop large grilling space etc. I don’t need Plumbing. I don’t need a sink and I have a refrigerator nearby. I just don’t want the expense of an outdoor kitchen or do I have the room for?
With the help of this group I landed on a Z8 about a year ago. I was terribly torn between the R5ii and the Z8 at the time. I LOVE the Z8 and have taken some incredible photographs. I mainly shoot sports (youth and HS). My kids are all incredible athletes so taking photos of them and their friends helps keep my mouth shut on the sidelines.
Now I need help again. I have met with some college softball coaches with my daughter, and they have encouraged us to send in some game clips and clips of her in the batting cage. I know the Z8 can take great video - but I am now looking for a dedicated second body. Some have suggested hiring a professional, but I really enjoy learning this - and the clips are not overly complex. I own a 70-200, a 100-400, a 24-70 and an 85 1.8. Question - what should I do for a second body (dedicated to video)? I have ZERO video experience. The Z6iii and ZR are in the discussion - but I am hoping those with more knowledge/experience can guide me.
Also, I assume (but don't know) that the lenses I have are all sufficient. Finally, what would be the optimal setup here - a tripod or a rig?
