Correction - the joystick can not be set to zoom but the video button is a great alternative - thank you to Jim Mac for the catch on that and the great suggestion.
The joystick can't, but the Center-OK button can. I have my Z7 set for the joystick to return the focus point to Center, and the Center-OK to zoom in to 100% (same as during playback). Note that this setting doesn't work when in Auto Area AF; hitting the Center-OK button toggles dynamic area vs. subject tracking.
@@JoshHarrisPhotography Thank you for the comment and great suggestion.
Top notch video. Thanks for sharing this video with us. ❤❤❤
Very clear and useful. Nice to see thst not only you say ''it exists'', as I found in other guys' videos, but also ''how to do it'' !!!! Thanks!
excellent as always and thanks for the educational content
Many thanks. Some very useful tips.
Excellent tips/- easy to follow!,
Thanks for sharing! Love it!
Thanks for watching!
Thanks. It's helpful
Great help!
Great tips,I use almost all of them!thank you very much see you in the next video
I'm glad they helped you out!
Thanks for making this one. The command-dial setting for image review was the most useful suggestion of the 5, for me.
Glad it was helpful!
This makes three ways to go through the pictures including flipping with your fingers!
Thanks for video👍
Thanks again for great tips!
Glad you like them!
Great tips
Very useful tips! Please keep posting on the Z system!
Will do!
Very helpful, thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
I clicked the title thinking "I am wasting another 10 minutes to listen to things I already know", but I did not know the first two tricks, thanks! In fact it is a big pity that the camera doesn't zoom automatically when I turn the zoom ring in manual focusing mode, it does in Fuji systems and makes manual focusing very convenient. And the second trick was a real time saver I did not know!
Thank you for the comment - reading comments like this is very motivating. Thanks again!
Awesome,
Sure I will subscribe, like and comment.
Thanks a lot
Very helpful! Thanks.
Glad it was helpful!
Keying the Fn2 button to the 1:1 zoom function could be a potential game changer for my use. Currently keep the Fn1 button keyed for subject tracking.
Thank you for some of these tricks, ive now programmed my Fn1 to my zoom and my Fn2 was already on the the AF priority selection but didnt realise about using the front and back dials to change it.
Thank you so much!
You're welcome!
Great video. Good information.
Thanks for watching!
My favourite shortcut was of 100% Zoom setting and the image review setting.. started using it right away..! Thank you for the information.. 😃👌🏼
Glad it was helpful!
Joseph, this was great. Love ya work. New to Z mount, great stuff. I’m now a follower. Greg T
Thank you - very much appreciated :-)
one other quick way to 'scroll' through images, is to use the touch screen, just like an I-pad, this works by touching and doing a two or three finger sweep to the left or right; also a quick zoom is to two finger pinch or release, this zooms the image ( find these under touch gesture controls in the menu).
2 and 4 were helpful, thanks! Note that the ok button zooms in 100% by default. During playback my ok button shows the large histogram, which I’m a big fan of.
Wow I like that I have nikon Z7 this is first time I use nikon. all the time I had sony and canon .. so it is hard to use Nikon for first time but I learn. So thank you for your channel I like it I subscribe and off course I give you like for your vedio
Nice video ❤❤❤
More power to your channel. Quality content .New sub here
Two new tips i took away from this vide were the 100% zoom function and being able to change to focus modes. Thanks a bunch!
Thanks for watching!
Thank you
Thanks Joseph. All of these setting are very helpful. I just need to go back to your previous videos to see how you added the Format memory card to My Menu?
Thanks
Hey there. First off thanks for doing this video. So I bought my 2nd Z6 and this one was 2nd hand which I didn’t have problems with the first used z6 but for some reason this one won’t turn green when I back button AF. This hadn’t been returned to factory settings so I’m hoping it’s a menu option. I have (unfounded) fear that this is some other camera in a z6 body. Thank you.
Very nice,thanks....can these be performed on a z50?...sometimes I don’t know why some people give a thumbs down for simply useful information 😳
Thanks for the tips. Unfortunately I went right over to my 24-70 s4 and no function button. Thats something I would use to nail the focus
Hi there, thanks for the informative video. I like the quick zoom trick using the L-FN button on the lens. However I am finding it zooms perfectly but when I click the image it takes the photograph at the pre zoom setting. Am I missing something ??
Great short cuts. Question is there a way to turn on focus peaking to show up in other modes other than manual focus?
FOR ME: If you swap the metering and AF function assignments (opposite as shown in the video) the front ring is much easier to rotate with your pointer. Holding the camera with your stronger middle finger seems to work better. Especially if you use a Z50 and Z5 as I do. I had your recommendation setup in my D500 which was fine and preferred.
Nikon really needs to open up the options you can program buttons to! It is just software. With mirrorless I don't need to image review, but I playback more often, and the button on top left is not accessible while viewing the EVF AND supporting a heavier lens. I'd really like to get my Z5 and Z50 buttons to match more closely.
Every Z lens should have one function button on it, and the S models should have two!
Yes - I definitely agree about those lens buttons! Thanks for the comments.
Thank you I have a z5 and I bought it used so I don’t have the user’s manual I need all the information I can get 🙏🏻🌹
Joe - thanks for the very helpful video. Actually I'm using the Fn2 button on my non-Z lenses for zooming and it works fine. I have an unrelated question that hopefully you can point me in the right direction. Every time I turn the camera off I get the following message: "Wireless transmission will continue. To suspend transmission, select "Off" for "Send while off." I have no idea what this is trying to tell me. In english what does this mean and is it useful. Thanks in advance for your help.
I watch countless people advising how to set various menu functions on Nikon cameras by holding the particular button down while at the same time they move the command dial. To my understanding Nikon digital cameras have always had a setting where you could press the button, release it and then move the command dial. So much easier than what everyone claims, doing two things at once. On my D850 the switch is in menu F6. Try it once and you will never go back.
Thanks fir sharing. Are these control button assignments are common for all shooting banks? My changes are getting stored for bank A and not able to make changes for bank B
thanks for these custom settings they are very useful. I have a question about the lens that the 100% zoom function works with. You had said S series lens. Does this include the NIKKOR Z 24-70mm f4 S or only the S series with the L-Fn button ?
never mind, i should have read through the other comments, If i had i would have seen the one where the joystick button wont work, i changed it to the video button and it works great, thanks again
Haha damn, the command dials in review mode are so useful.
Glad this helped you out! Thanks for watching.
Hi,a query please.If you hit the button for 100 per cent zoom to focus,when you press again to zoom back,when you press the shutter will the af not focus again making the previous steps pointless? What am I missing please.
How do I get my Z6 II play back screen to look as yours does at 3:43 ? The black area surrounding the image has the data on three sides. Great tips. Thanks for putting this together.
This is from the HDMI output of the camera - It is not a setting that can be turned on or off.
Hi Joseph,,, I very much enjoy watching Your videos..... I am wondering if while using the FTZ (on a Z6) and taking advantage of the metering and auto focus with my sharp F mount lenses if it is worth doing that... (I have never used any mounting devices to put any lenses from another manufacturer on my Nikon DSLR) I like my photos to be as sharp as possible.... Would I (in your opinion) be able to get sharp photos using the FTZ adaption or would I be disappointed ????
Hi - thank you for the comment. I think that with the FTZ adapter you will be very happy with your F lenses. That being said the Z series lenses are fantastic. If you were to buy a new lens in the future I'm sure you would want the Z lens.
there are no optics in the FTZ, it only adds distance between the sensor and the rear element of the lens. According to Nikon engineers, there should be zero differences between shooting on an f-mount camera vs an equivalent z series with an FTZ
@@marcobigio
I have a NIKON AF-S NIKKOR 500MM F/5.6E PF ED VR lens (F-mount) on my Z7. Works fine for me but according to Steve Perry on backcountrygallery.com, the Z7 cannot drive the lens autofocus functions as fast as Nikon DSLR cameras can. So (according to him), you would do better with this lens on a D850 for example. I don''t have a suitable Nikon DSLR to use to make a comparison so I have no personal experience on the subject.
Make sure you purchase the newer one, FTZ ll. A much better design.
hey Joseph, I have installed the latest Firmware upgrade to C 1.2. in trying to follow your directions it does not work. Help.
Woope
How do you look at multiple images on playback? I haven't found this yet on my Z6.
Pinch to zoom the screen. It works on my Z 50
@@Isaypreach yep that works. Now how do I go through and delete various pics at one click of the delete button?
@@gosman949 now that part i haven't figured out. My apologies
Show me the zoom to the two button the joystick for the z6
With these "command dial" re-programmings, does that not disable their basic functions of aperture and shutter-speed control?
No - it does not.
@@ShutterSpeak OK, thanks. Good to know. I'll check it all out at some point. The infinitude of control possibilities with the Z cameras is overwhelming -and the actual menus … are at best underwhelming.
GREATEST TIP I HAVE FOUND: use the "release button to use dial" set to ON ; for people with limited dexterity, arthritis, etc. this allows you to release the button, then turning the dials, in effect turning these selections into a "toggle switch" rather than a "momentary on" switch, heaps easier to manage.
I discovered this recently as well - game changer. SO much easier.
Thanks for sharing!
Yeah but can you set it so you can actually use the joystick to select the things you've highlighted? xD
Great tutorial video but not fast enough focusing for action,sports wildlife compared to my D5.
If you are using a Z9, do NOT format the memory card; some settings are set on the memory card. Instead, use "Delete all pictures". That way the settings info will remain.
That's not really accurate - settings only remain on the card if you specifically save them to the card. Most pro sports shooters would never do that as they are constantly swapping out cards to runners for quick uploads as important events in the game take place. It's not to say you can't save setting, you can, but depending on what you shoot, you may specifically not.
@@ShutterSpeak My understanding is that this applies to the settings set up in the four "banks".
@@lindaitken3321 Only if you save and load the information to the card. Otherwise, it stays in memory (not the card)
@@ShutterSpeak Very interesting. I wonder why the instruction was to save it to the card. I'll have to look up that video again.
Thank you for the correction.
So...so...so...ugh
