Nikon has brought out the MB-N10 Multi Battery Power Pack for the Z6 / Z7. You might have missed that with the announcement of the Z50 today. If you want a “bigger” footprint to grab a hold of or more power when shooting video, this if the ticket for you. Nikon describes it:
The MB-N10 is a Multi Battery Power Pack for the Z 7 and Z 6 full-frame mirrorless cameras (cameras sold separately). It is designed to add additional shooting time versus just using the battery in the camera alone. The MB-N10 may increase the length of shooting time up to 1.8x* (*CIPA standard) more than using just the camera’s battery. The MB-N10 is designed with the same weather sealing and modern design of the Z cameras and affords photographers a well-balanced feel when a long telephoto lens is on the camera.
The MB-N10 can accept two EN-EL15b or EN-EL15a/EN-EL15 rechargeable Lithium-ion batteries, each housed in its own battery compartment. For convenience, the batteries are hot-swappable, which means that you can replace one while the other continues powering the camera. This is beneficial for video, interval and time-lapse shooting. With two batteries, power is first drawn from the battery in chamber A until it is depleted, and then the unit draws power from the battery in chamber B.
Other features include battery power level displays for each battery, a socket for connectivity to a tripod and the ability to use the optional EH-7P Charging AC Adapter to charge the EN-EL15b batteries while inserted into the unit, whether its attached to the camera or not.
Being hot-swappable is a big deal. Should be available shortly!
Nikon has brought out the Z50, a DX-format mirrorless camera small in size (Z16-50 lens pictured), big in features and quality. It has many of the Z Family features like eye AF detection while a few new ones including pop-up flash and totally Flip-under LCD. Yes, the Z50 can use the Z6/Z7 Z Lenses as well as the FTZ adapter!

We are incredibly fortunate to travel out with our imaginations, passion, and cameras and see the world. It’s a grand world with lots to share and teach us. In that is the challenge of the landscape photographer. No matter whether the landscape is your own backyard, town city or some far off destination, they all have many aspects that are similar. Our landscape photos need to say more than, “I was here,” but rather, “You NEED to be here!” How to we make that difference in our photos?
There are so many possibilities from gear, techniques and digital darkroom for you to choose from. During our time together, we will do just that. We will cover gear, techniques, lights, locations, strategies, and post-processing so you have many options to select those that work for you, your photography and storytelling. Join Precision Camera and me for a great night!
Take your landscape photography into the city and to the next level with Moose Peterson in this special workshop at Butler Metro Park. The iconic skyline will serve as the perfect backdrop along with models to bring the city to life.
If his photographs don’t tell the story beautifully enough, Corey Rich’s new book, Stories Behind the Images makes them a grand slam! Corey’s imagery, still and video, is the quintessential essence in visual storytelling! But his words of the process, techniques and most importantly, the passion and emotion he puts into each photo, adventure, will stir you to get out and shoot. This is a must addition to your library!!!
In this episode “Buck Fever”
Buck fever is a common hunting term that many apply to photography and for good reason. It costs many photographers the great shot while being totally preventable.
