► Just buy a Nikon Z5II, Z6III, Z8, or Z9

► Stick to S-type lenses for highest quality

► Use NEF Lossless Compressed

► Subscribe to, learn, and process in Adobe Photoshop (if you have to, substitute Lightroom)

► Apple Silicon Macs are great, but add RAM and SSD space if you can

► Aspire to optimal data capture, data processed optimally

► Plan, play, experiment, refine, repeat

► You, your skills, and your creativity are more important than your gear

► Buy one (or all) of my books

► Set f/anything and be someplace
