  1. I’m really impressed by the new Fuji-inspired filters on the Nikon ZF—finally, a digital camera that captures that classic film look I love. It’ll be interesting to see how these features stack up against full-frame Fujis in real-world shooting conditions. The addition of cloud creation seems like a fun creative tool too. Excited to hear more from photographers who get their hands on this update!
