I apologize for the delay, before I expand, I have to say Kye in a note above said it best. In general I don't find -For me and what I shoot- the ZR get's out of the way and just works, I'm not brand new to Nikon yet find the menu diving a bit of a pain, I also can't understand why I can't assign some common used settings to the first quick menu. Getting a card out once you rigged your camera is a nightmare, have to move the whole thing off and pull off anything on the base to access the card. See below on set's like this it's a bit of a mess and you then have to spend time and make sure your camera is back to the right place! Another challenge is the tragic H265, I shot a small table top for Sephora the other day and couple of mini clips ended up at 293 GIGs, would have shot it on H265 if it was fine, absolutely no need for red code in a perfectly lit set. I normally shoot on cameras that just do what they need to do and that's all there is to it, we don't even really think much about the camera during the shoot, for my experience so far the ZR isn't at all that camera! Again this is just me, I'm sure there are people who love using the ZR and that's excellent for them :) -

While I enjoy following the latest camera releases, there would literally be zero ROI on us switching systems anytime in the next 5 years. -

Yeah 100%. We stayed in the Lumix eco system for years using Canon lenses, and it worked. 3 years ago we finally bit the bullet and dropped like 15 grand into upgrading to Sony bodies and Sigma E mount lenses. That being said, we probably won't do a camera upgrade until these die on us, they more than accomplish anything we need from them. At this point, if we need another body, we can always pick up a used FX30 for like $1200 and it fits in perfectly with our FX6 and A7IVs. -
There is indeed a wealth of super high quality material, instantly accessible and either for free or with very reasonably priced subscriptions. And every subject whether it be something historical, classic cars, wood turning, whatever floats your boat, is available. But it is probably less than 5% of the material and channels out there which are just dross and soapboxes for talentless hustlers. And now, increasing AI slop. We just have to be more selective as consumers. -

What we're seeing with AI is what we see with human intelligence, in that it can be either the best of humanity or the most evil of humanity, and there's a similar spread of ethics on YouTube as well! On one hand the inevitable consequence of a free and open platform with no editorial oversight, no unifying force in terms of values, just a bunch of people doing what they do - some grifters, some artists, some enthusiasts, some engineers, some marketing, some desperate for money, others more interested in creating and less interested in what other people think. I'm kinda upset Mr Burling won't be around any more as he was definitely in the latter camp of YouTubers who had credibility and an artist's vision. I find a lot of the animation folk are the same... that field seems to attract people who are in it for the pure love of it rather than grifters just in it for the ego and the money. In photography and filmmaking the balance is more close to the middle, 50-50. What I like about YouTube and social media in general is you can seek out the niche pockets of creativity and that it sits on what is now a big mainstream TV platform. A mainstream TV platform in the 'old days' would never have had the sheer amount of one-man-band content on it that YouTube has now. So there's a lot to be grateful for with it as well as the other more negative side of it which is sometimes difficult to ignore. It's a net gain overall though isn't it? I will reconsider my own absence from YouTube soon and get some stuff out there.
