Summary
This is the Daily FRO for September 1st 2019.
The debate continues on as to which system I should take on my upcoming shoot. I've flip flopped 37 times on which direction I should go and why. I can justify both systems but the problem is I have too many choices at the moment.
I've never really taken the Sony's on my own personal shoots. Where as i've used the Nikon Z7 extensively and have gotten some great results. I've also gotten some fantastic results with the a9 as well when photographing a little kid at 1.2 who wouldn't sit still. I got shots I would have not gotten with my Z7 because I would probably still be moving focusing points and miss the shot.

| 0:00.0 | Jared Pollenferno's photo.com and this is the Daily Fro for September 1st, |
| 0:07.6 | 2019. The time is 841 in the a.m. This is episode number 26, 276, where I sit down sometime |
| 0:14.0 | during the day to share what's on my mind with you and you get to share what's on your mind |
| 0:17.5 | with me by calling or texting 267-4546376. The dilemma continues. |
| 0:24.3 | And by the way, I'm making this early because usually I make my smoothie, but I'm out of a bananas. |
| 0:31.6 | And so I went to the corner store, but because it's Labor Day weekend, the corner store doesn't open until nine. |
| 0:36.8 | So that's why I came back here. |
| 0:38.0 | And the reason I don't have bananas or other stuff is because I couldn't get the Whole Foods as I normally do on a Saturday or a Sunday because Made in America Fest is going on. |
| 0:47.8 | And that's right by the Whole Foods I go to down by the stairs, Rocky Stairs, as you people that aren't from Philly call them. |
| 0:55.0 | And so I don't have the normal stuff anyway. The dilemma continues. The dilemma continues. Every time I think I'm like, |
| 1:01.9 | yes, I'm going to take the Sony. I'm going to take the Nikon. I, the dilemma continues. For those |
| 1:08.0 | of you who don't know who didn't check out the last episode, I have a big shoot |
| 1:11.1 | coming up and I'm running into a decision issue of what I should take. |
| 1:16.5 | Should I take a Sony A9 and an A7 R4 as a backup with all the Sony stuff? |
| 1:22.8 | Or should I take the Z7 as a primary shooter with the Z-glass and a Z-6 as a backup. And of course, I'm going to record the |
| 1:34.2 | EVF with both of them. The Nikon gives me a dirty out, which is interesting because it gives |
| 1:39.3 | you all of the information and you see it. The Sony just gives you a clean out, but you still see what I'm shooting. |
| 1:45.8 | And the dilemma continues to be, which is the right tool for the job? And then I sat yesterday, |
| 1:51.6 | I'm like, but then looking back at images, I'm like, I did all of this stuff with my D5. I did |
| 1:57.0 | this with my D4S. I did this with my D4. It was just like, I did all of this great stuff with that stuff. |
| 2:04.7 | And it's not like I wouldn't be able to do the same or similar thing with any other piece of gear. |
| 2:11.1 | It just sucks that Nikon doesn't have a mirrorless D5 at this moment. |
