Amazing collection of shots.  The Z60 seems to perform well for these.  So, is it as easy to work as your DSLR?  I don't imagine it is too much lighter.  I looked at the Z60/70 weight with the adapter and it was almost a wash for my D760, so unless you use native lenses, not much benifit as far as weight is concerned. Maybe it brings other things to the table, but weight is getting to be a big concern for me.

I love the tiger shot in the snow.  As I would imagine it as it roamed around Siberia.  And my father-in-law would really enjoy the gorilla shot.  He goes to the zoo and spends all his time with the gorillas.  But they are all good.
