Robert G Allen Photography takes delivery of Nikon’s flagship D6 full frame DSLR camera
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Robert G Allen Photography takes delivery of Nikon’s Current Flagship DSLR camera.
Today was an exciting day at Robert G Allen Photography. The delivery of the Nikon D6 flagship Nikon camera! You can be sure I will be putting it through it’s paces soon. First impressions are that it’s a heavy camera and the shutter is loud. Just after a few shots, the auto focus appears to be sure of it’s self, even in 3D mode. Overall, very impressive. I think if the world was coming to an end, the ruggedness of the body would ensure that this would be the last camera standing and possibly, the only thing standing.
Expect a review coming after putting this dream machine through its paces.
Robert G Allen Photography has been notified by Nikon USA, Inc. that Robert Allen will continue to be a part of Nikon's NPS (Nikon Professional Services) program for 2025 at the Professional Level.
With the Nikon Z9 going on 5 years old, it’s time to start to speculate what the Nikon Z9II specifications might be. With an estimated release date sometime in late 2025 or early 2026, it appears that now is a good time to start documenting what changes and improvements are needed with the Nikon Z9 II
Today, I received the latest Nikon camera release, The Z50II along with the DX lens 18-140mm f/3.5-6.3.
I had a chance to use this combination shortly after delivery as I provide event photography coverage for a major local holiday event.
Since I no longer use any Adobe products (due to the AI mess they have created resulting in fake photos everywhere), and Capture One has yet to support the Z50II, I had to use Adobe’s DNG converter (cough, cough…) to convert the NEF files into DNG files in order to use Capture One to process the photos.
Today, Nikon issued an update to their NX Studio desktop software from version 1.7.0 to 1.7.1. Here is what has changed:
Today, Nikon announces the Z50II, a huge upgrade over the original Z50 camera. The headlines here are the upgrades to the auto focus system, now having the Expeed 7 processor, the same one in the Nikon Z9, Z8 and Z6III cameras. And many more upgrades over the Z50.
Today, I just received this beauty of a lens and I’m eager to give it a try. Stay tuned for a few test shots NOW WITH TEST SHOTS.
I just received this beauty of a lens and I’m eager to give it a try. I did manage to take it out for a few test shots along with my Nikon Z7II just to make sure everything was in order.

With yet another Z9 firmware release (ver 5.10), I thought I would put together a comprehensive guide to all 10 of the Z9 updates to date. This also serves as a historical record of how far the Z9 has come, starting with its firmware infancy with version 1.00.
