That's how Americans and Canadians say Nikon.

That's how Americans say Z

They also can't spell cheque.

But Aluminum. Ah, aluminum. Aluminum.

They got that right.

And what's with the Brit pronunciation of methane, anyway?

Damn. I bit the bullet (or was it 'the bait').

Just hoping the FTZ-II doesn't make my 'standard' lens (28-300mm
f/3.5-5.6G AF-S Nikkor ED VR) too ungainly. At least until a Z
equivalent emerges.

Yes, I am lazy.
