Lots of photographic possibilities contained in that set of gear.  If you get bored with them, feel free to send them to me.

Really Keith, I think my Lumix gear will go first!
When I think of the Nikon stuff I got rid of in 2014/2015 I’m starting get a little tear in my eyes!

Apparently I still lead you by 1 lens, Mike :) That is the 24/1.8 S. Yet it is amazing how quick one takes to the general optical excellence of the S-Line Nikkors.

Now, all that remains is going outside and train any of those fine lenses on a suitable subject.

Birna, the optical excellence I find quite remarkable as you say, one of the reasons I came back to Nikon was the research I did into the lenses, it has cost me a weight penalty over the lightweight Panasonic mu4/3 lenses and of course they are very good! The Z6 body is only 1oz heavier than the Lumix G9.  And because I tend to crop and align, the allure of FF drew me in. The Z 24/20mm lenses I don’t actually need, as I have the excellent Z 14-30mm, but I am attracted to the primes, but would seem a little OTT at the moment.
Now I must let my wallet recover until I sell some of the Panasonic gear. ;)
