Does anyone know how to get rid of them or avoid them during edits?

This shot is from Isle Royale during the August 11/12 show the lower 48 had. Isle Royale is the largest island in Lake Superior, and is home to some amazing views. This particular night had overhead (and to the south) displays of pillars and pulsating aurora! This shot will make the top 24 of 2024 for me!

Sony a7RV paired with 20mm 1.8.

Snowy Path to the Starlit Guardians

After visiting Zion Canyon Overlook, I stopped by the Towers of the Virgin near the Human History Museum at Zion National Park. The towers are a visual spectacle! I found a snowy path leading up to them, which wasn’t part of a trail. While waiting for the winter Milky Way to line up above the towers for my photo, I heard movement in the bushes. I turned on my headlamp to reveal glowing deer eyes. It was a creepy experience, but memorable.

Sony a7III vs Nikon Z6 II vs Panasonic S5 for Landscape Astro

4 Upvotes

Hi,
I’m planning to purchase a new camera and lenses, and I’m wondering which of the three options is the best.

I’ve compared them using the photo comparator on DPReview, but I’m afraid it doesn’t tell the whole story, especially when it comes to long-exposure photography.

From my research, it seems that the Z6II has an edge over Sony, but it’s more expensive and has fewer available lenses (fewer Sigma options, for instance).
I was surprised by the Panasonic’s results in the high ISO test on DPReview, but I’m unsure how it performs during long exposures (I had a very bad experience with their G85).

What are your thoughts? Are the Nikon camera and lenses significantly better than Sony to justify the higher price? Or did I miss some good, affordable lens options for Nikon?
