Lawrence on stage last night (in one of the few quiet moments). Great, fun and energetic gig - I only wish the heat hadn't got to me this badly.

EDIT: Needed to replace the image. That said, I could have trusted the phone's screen much more!

Lawrence is fantastic! That’s great you got to see them in person.
 
Annual Hare Krishna outdoor event - it's usually a street procession but yesterday (the planned date) was rainy so they had a marquee tent with food and music (food wonderful, music not my kettle of poissons)
but the procession will be taking place today - and I'm disappointed not be to able to attend due to prior plans.

Lovely - it's handling the high ISO very well. Did you use further noise reduction software or not?
Thanks! No further noise reduction - I was really impressed with how the Z f performed at that ISO. I had three original Z6’s (for client work) when they first came out, but never needed to use any of them above ISO 6400 - which before last night has always rather been my personal max ISO ceiling for ANY camera. So I was really just playing when I made these at 12.800. But I’ll certainly not hesitate to go there again.

EDIT to add: I’m not sure how much Nikon changed the sensor from the Z6II to the Z f, but you may get pretty similar performance from your camera. Especially if you use Nikon’s NX Studio software to process your images - it seems to handle camera color and noise better than the third-party software options (including Adobe).
