Across Australia many new public electric car charging sites are planned in 2023/2024

In the course of my current working experience with a Hertz Polestar 2 electrical seek the services of automobile in and all-around Melbourne it was crystal clear that there needs to be a good deal much more public electric powered car or truck charging websites to give potential buyers the self confidence they can demand each time and wherever they will need to with no inconvenience.

Tesla has accomplished a great job setting up out a community for proprietors of their cars and trucks, but for the moment, most of these charging stations are unique to Tesla homeowners/hirers.

Luckily several diverse companies are placing up electric powered car or truck charging stations throughout the region, with a whole lot of the do the job being accomplished by early movers Chargefox and Evie, both of which I made use of in the course of my journey.

Some of these charging stations are funded right by the charging companies but are often co-funded by point out and federal govt grants. Interestingly Chargefox was a short while ago ordered by a consortium of Australia’s motoring associations (NRMA, RACV, RACQ, RAA, RAC and RACT). Users of these car clubs are suitable for a 20% price cut at some Chargefox places.

Unsurprisingly petrol station owners like BP Pulse (performing with Evie originally) and Ampol AmpCharge (also performing with Evie at first) are now also joining in and saying plans to set up charging stations on their present fossil gasoline sites.

My Switch To Mirrorless Wasn’t Planned, But It Is Complete!

Sold all my Nikon DSLR gear.

I bought my first “serious” Mirrorless camera three years ago when the Nikon Z6 came out. I bought it mainly because I like new tech and I wanted to see what all the fuss was about. Back then the mere mention of Mirrorless brought Sony to mind. Sony got a big jump on the industry. However, the handwriting was on the wall. Soon all manufacturers began their transition from DSLR to Mirrorless.

My former camera was the legendary Nikon D850. An amazing camera body and in my opinion one of the best cameras Nikon ever produced. Since I already had a D850 I chose to get the Z6 over the Z7. Again, I wasn’t planning on switching at the time. Nikon made it really easy to start using their Mirrorless cameras because they included an (FTZ) adapter that made it possible to use your existing F-Mount Nikon lenses with no loss in quality. This was probably the biggest thing they needed to do if they ever hoped to get people to consider or move to mirrorless. Bodies come and go, but people hold on to good glass (lenses) for years and years.

I started using the Nikon Z6 Mirrorless and I never stopped!

I even upgraded to the Nikon Z6 II when it came out. I hadn’t realized or really thought that I had switched to mirrorless years ago, but I had. I wasn’t shooting with my DSLRs anymore. I never planned on this,
