I shot with the 750 (2 of them) for 5 years and in the past 3 years have really felt the need for better video features. I was about to trade them in for z6's but then the 780 was announced and due to some lens incompatibility (I have 2 Tamron G1 lenses I really like) I decided to delay a full switch to mirrorless and go with the 780.
Like the myriad of reviews say, the camera is great in photo mode, I like the rearrangement of buttons and I really like the touch screen, etc. I'm still very happy with the purchase.
However, one of my primary check boxes was to keep using my Tamron glass and that is where I've run into problems. My 70-200 2.8 G1 does not play well with the LV mode . Basically, if you're in LV and the AF is engaged, the LV will shut off intermittently. It appears to be connected to the power draw required to drive the AF motor. I had it start acting up on me at a video shoot the other day. I'm still trying to confirm if this happens with the G2 version of this lens (I don't know anyone who has one). So far my Tamron 15-30 is behaving (another reported problem lens for the z6) but I haven't put it through it's paces yet.
TLDR: If you have Tamron Lenses that are incompatible with the Z6, they may be also incompatible (in LV) with the 780.

Grey Market Product !
Contrary to what the product description implies, this is NOT a Nikon USA warranted product. SN on box ends in "JP," not "US." USA Nikon products have a serial number on its base. Photo shows base. No SN. What $2,000 + camera does not have a serial number externally visible ?
