A gallery of sample real photos (no AI photos) from my much loved Nikon Z7II mirrorless camera. I use the Z7II mostly in the studio and when out of the studio, for landscapes and general scenery. Let me know your thoughts on the Z7II in the comment section.
The Z5IIC delivers the same level of performance as the Z5II (released in April 2025), which offers advanced shooting functions that support a wide variety of shooting scenes and situations, yet makes it easy for even first-time camera users to express themselves through images.
As Nikon struggles financially, they are starting to make organizational changes to hopefully start to bring the company into a profitable position once again. Only time will tell if these early changes will be effective.
Today, I received the Nikkor Z 35mm f/1.4 mirrorless lens. Considering that it’s not a S line lens, the build quality is pretty good. It’s light and the lens hood is not too big or too small. I would say overall, the design has a pleasing esthetic compact look.

I have finally setup my first single topic portfolio on aviation. Aviation is one of the subjects that I seek out, both when at home and while traveling. It’s been a passion of mine for a long time. Hence, I have accumulated a lot of portfolio worthy content from shooting mostly airplanes over the years.
Welcome to Robert G Allen Photography. I'm a professional multi-disciplinary commercial freelance photographer based in the Pacific Northwest and a Nikon DSLR Enthusiast.
While my career has primarily been as an event photographer, this website represents other areas of photography for which I have professional competency and enjoyment. The resulting front page gallery and single subject galleries are the result of a combination of client assignments and personal areas of interest.
I have shot over 5 thousand (5,000) photos with this lens. What’s not to like; it’s sharp, light and has great Bokeh. Here is just a small sample of what this lens can do. Some were taken during event assignments while others were taken in studio settings and other situations.
