I wanna commemorate my previous comment with this one and say that you’re truly inspiring and helpful for the entire filmmaking community. Thank you Andyax
Really refreshing to see how a tool can shine in the hands of true artists and professional artisans! Your whole team rocks! Very impressed to see how you quickly improvised your location shots, and also kudos to your video editor. Congratulations!
The dynamic range in those backlit sunset shots where impressive, really cool what our “small” cameras can handle nowadays! Also, great edit on the music video! Also also: Vjus - Oslo is our studio.
Thanks. So you are still happy with your Nikon camera, William Faucher (in our previous video) said he is still using his Nikon... Looks like when you first start using Nikon you stick with it.
@@Andyax Image quality, build and ruggedness is why I have used Nikon for years for photo. I did sell my Z6II to go to Sony for the stability and autofocus in video. Been wanting to get back into Nikon since trying out the Z9 and seeing how good it was. Now we get Z9 features in the Z8, that’s a win for Nikon photo and video users.
@@waynerm002did You noticed any big difference between the Z6II and the Sony?, I'm a Nikon user, very happy with My Z6ii, but i always wonder if the difference y just to bog?
I have this camera too now and its my first mirror less Im so excited what I can do with a good setup tbh I underestimated the cost of the gimbel storage etc but Im so happy with it :D
Thanks for this video! Wanted to see the Z8 in use in handheld situation for the stabilization and video auto focus. This is a good showing of this camera. Looks like the stabilization for video still needs some work. I was hoping they would have done some work there.
Great video! I started shooting the Z9 for video on an Arctic expedition in the summer and again this winter in Antarctica. As soon as I got home I ordered the Z8 as well. Now I can shoot great video handheld in the field without changing lenses between the 2 cameras.
Congrats guys this is amazing... yes camera looks good... but only when treated in such a great manner as presented here! Inspiring and passionate work from everyone! I presume the Z8 wasn't standing in your way, which is good 🙂. Came for the camera stayed because of the on and off the camera talent! Love from Finlandia!💜
Thanks Jason. Last time we shot with the Nikon Z9, we had the same wow experience when we looked at the colors. We normally shoot with Canon or Sony but there is something about Nikon colors.
Det er utrolig å se en film og musikkvideo tatt opp rett ved siden av der jeg bor. Filming er hobbyen min, og jeg har alltid mye moro på denne kanalen.
I'm usually not early on your videos mostly because i save it for the end of the day when i can be in my room with headphones on and experience the videos. It's always so satisfying. I hope to work at your company one day, even just to experience it!
In my opinion, the quality of footage from Z line in Nlog is better than what Sony or Panasonic offers. Sony might have an edge in DR and low light but it's only noticeable in very specific scenarios. I would still choose Sony for filming videos but I'm excited about what Nikon will release next.
That penguin got to close and then got sneak punched by the other one :D The slow-motion is incredible. Actually not a bad camera all around, Nikon is nice on their colors, and for video It's a nice thing. Glad to see them taking the lead and some areas.
Awesome first look guys, I think the finished music video has an awesome vibe to it. Are you using the Original Nikon LUT to convert the N-LOG to Rec. 709/2020? I'm curious on your settings and would love to see a detailed walkthrough your node trees (CST, curves, etc.). Keep up the great work!
@@Andyax Thanks! Doesn’t have to be its own video, just a short sequence. Maybe you can squeeze it in on the next episode of the sci-fi shoot ♥️🙏🏼 Either way great work.
What I’m most impressed with is no gimbal and you still got some clean shots, did you feel the stability was as good as it looks?? Really curious on your thoughts about how it was filming without a gimbal
Hei Andy nice video and I have to say I like the creativity it took me back a few years when I was still a wedding photographer with 2 studios one in yes Narvik and Harstad. Shooting weddings outside was kind of like your walk in Oslo, where to next what background and angle. The z8 is clearly a beast but I'm currently waiting for the z6iii as the z8 is a bit out of my budget at the moment. Good luck with all your productions and just a heads up if I see you on a shoot in Oslo I'm going to say hei Doug :)
Freaking awesome and you guys are so talented. I just finally my first short video and used my Z8 just me making some iced coffee. It’s the first I have ever done on a camera and or ever tried to edit. I’m a portrait and wedding photographer who has been wanting to try some short video but have been afraid to try. I have a lot of work to do to get anything decent but on my own using a simple tripod and some hand held, and some very minor editing using a program I just tried for video (cyberlink powerdirector) I’m actually totally amazed what I created still and how fun it was. Like I said, I have a long way to go, a lot to do with shooting on my own and shooting myself several of my clips are out of focus do to the camera focusing on what was closer vs what I really wanted (like the coffee scoop, or more where my hands were not my wrist) I know this wasn’t the cameras fault I just need to practice making it focus where I want it when its me videoing something I maybe doing like making coffee. My face was never in the shot as it was more about just how I made a cup of coffee. Anyways, your video was amazing and inspiring. I love this camera for photos, now to continue to practice some short videos too. Thx and again I thought your video on the Nikon Z8 was awesome as was your subject.
Great video, I really enjoy every new video you produce. You can see that was a lot of work and fun at the same time! I wish I could visit your studio someday!
I wish i were you guys im really new to film industry and im planning to make a movie i dont have the gear tho😢 so i probably have to wait a whole year to maybe Get the money for the movie and Also i dont have any actors and nobody in my crew are able to film the movie so i probably cant film it wery soon but keep up the good work i love your videos and i have been watching your videos pretty long now on my other account❤ i find your videos very inspirerende og informerende og de har hjulpet meg mye med gode ideer😊
I wonder if the limitations in batterylife and card space makes it difficult to record in 8k60 raw? Would have been great if one of the usbcs supported external recording.
Who…WHO would call internal compressed 8k60 raw in a small camera „disapointing“? Im a Sony user (and quite happy with the a7s3)…but damn im green with envy right now…8k60 raw internal…godammn…i want that (id honestly live happily with internal 8k60 10 bit but still)…im considering buying it as a secondary cam for that spec alone!
@Andyax 😄😄 you guys are really awesome. Me and my friends always talked about your content . I learned so many new things, which are rearly seen on RUclips, more or less every creator creasing clickbait
Fantastic! And now I want a Z8 to b-cam my Komodo. BUT - what dolly is that you're using with the rubber tracks and sit-down platform? Do you like it? Does VJUS own it?
Great job guys. In your view, how close is the video AF to Sony’s? Trying to figure which to go for out of this or the FX3. Also, what iso were you using in low light, and do you feel you struggled at night?
Since the Z6 I just can't bring myself to choose nikon for video no matter what their tracking is usually awful, color is good but autofocus capability is always behind compared to canon and sony, maybe comparable to panasonic, but panasonic camera renders the best footages with the dynamic range capability which unmatch compared to sony and canon speically nikon. Nikon should be for Photography only in harsh condition environment, you guys should check out Morten hilmer on how he battle test nikon products with great expertise and insane scenarios.
Hello Andy. Got a question do you keep the finger pressed when recording? I see the finger all the time and makes me think if finger needs to kept pressed. Also what af and setting for recording you use?
Hey guys. I never shoot prores on my z9 because the raw is just smaller whilst better in quality. So as long as you are using davinci to edit, there is no point in using prores.
I wish you show us if z8 can give quality as you have at 15:54 (studio shoot). Because when I compare music video and the shot from studio, seems like z8 is not that good

Sorry for the re-upload! We had some technical issues with the sound.
It makes more sense now 😊
NIKON IS OUT FOR BLOOD THESE RECENT CAMERAS ARE TYPICAL BEASTS
facts
Yasssss ❤
My favourite z8 video so far.
The music video turned out amazing and the artist is soo talented and videogenic..Nikon is really stepping up their game ...damn
This is probably the most comforting review of the Z8 so far. Really into the vibes. Every frame is clean and professionally produced.
One thing I like about the Vjus/Andyax team is that they are so casual and professional at the same time!
I wanna commemorate my previous comment with this one and say that you’re truly inspiring and helpful for the entire filmmaking community. Thank you Andyax
Thanks Fadi! :)
The colours are incredible! Even on the low light stuff. Superb!
Talented, photogenic artist, outstanding crew, beautiful footage and the Z8 seems like it was worth the wait. Bravo guys, well done!
Thanks Markus.
Thank you for all the different perspectives from each person working on each step in the process.
Really refreshing to see how a tool can shine in the hands of true artists and professional artisans! Your whole team rocks! Very impressed to see how you quickly improvised your location shots, and also kudos to your video editor. Congratulations!
Nice shots. The Z8 looks like a beast of a camera
Wow! I love seeing such amazing images from a small crew, small lights and a small camera. Great job 👏
The dynamic range in those backlit sunset shots where impressive, really cool what our “small” cameras can handle nowadays!
Also, great edit on the music video!
Also also: Vjus - Oslo is our studio.
12 bit internal raw is so tempting!!!
BIG CONGRATULATIONS ANDYAX! Been telling people about what you and your team were doing. Its Nice to se NIKON recognized your teams incredible work.
Best review ever! Great job with Z8 review on the real case scenario, thanks a lot for sharing it.
Great work, but it’s not only the camera, it’s the work behind the camera 👍👍👍well done 👍👍👍 greatings from Austria 🇦🇹
Beautiful footage guys! I’m still happy with my Z6 from 2017, Nikon might be the most underrated brand for video
Thanks. So you are still happy with your Nikon camera, William Faucher (in our previous video) said he is still using his Nikon... Looks like when you first start using Nikon you stick with it.

The music video turned out amazing and the artist is soo talented and video..Nikon is very good camera and I am youing 35 years Nikon camers

wow that was a great music video teaser! Footage looked awesome. Well done guys
Thanks Jason. Last time we shot with the Nikon Z9, we had the same wow experience when we looked at the colors. We normally shoot with Canon or Sony but there is something about Nikon colors.
What I love about your videos, is that you show real life shooting ❤️
Thanks. That's when you really see the quality of the camera, in my eyes.
@@Andyax
Totally agree with that ✌🏼
Det er utrolig å se en film og musikkvideo tatt opp rett ved siden av der jeg bor. Filming er hobbyen min, og jeg har alltid mye moro på denne kanalen.
Z8 is going to be the top selling camera and folks will have money left over to get some lenses … as always good work
I'm usually not early on your videos mostly because i save it for the end of the day when i can be in my room with headphones on and experience the videos. It's always so satisfying. I hope to work at your company one day, even just to experience it!

Hey, it actually turned out very good! Was fun tagging along!
Just wait for the next video ;)
The quality of this review is incredible, love your work bro💯🔥

Fantastic real-world review. as always your production value is next level
Subscribed!! Amazing content and quality imagery and workflow from the Z8. Keep up the good work.
No matter how long your videos seem to be, it's so informative, educative and entertaining. One of my best channel on youtube.
Awesome work from everyone involved. I need a Z8!

Thanks. We used the Nikon LUT that comes with DaVinci Resolve. Thanks for the idea of making a video about that. I'll write it down :)
@@Andyax Thanks! Doesn’t have to be its own video, just a short sequence. Maybe you can squeeze it in on the next episode of the sci-fi shoot ♥️🙏🏼 Either way great work.
WHOA Truly impressed by the quality. I LOVE THE LOOK WOW.

Nice review and footage...
Grading Looks Epic
this video is 11/10!!!!!!
So awesome! U guys really show the Z8 potential
great work and professional quality that Sony users dream about their tuna boxes👏👏
You guys did an incredible job here! Can you say anything about the internal audio and the preamps on the Z8?
That is amazing!! You guys are incredible!
Great video presenting the Z8. Great work
Great job guys
These were amazing. Your work gets me charged up to create
That's great to hear! :)

Hi guys, for the music video did you shoot using en image stabilisation? If so which mode you used? Thanks guys. Amazing work by the way!
Great Content...You should definitely upload more …
TREMENDO EL VIDEO
From east africa Tanzania✅✅✅ good job
Love everything
I didn't have any words!
But now you have five :)
@Andyax 😄😄 you guys are really awesome. Me and my friends always talked about your content . I learned so many new things, which are rearly seen on RUclips, more or less every creator creasing clickbait
wow, that's amazing!!
wow surpraising me. nikon z8 sooo good
Simply amazing
Nice song. ❤️👍
When you were filming the music video and holding the camera in your hands, did you use a matrix stabilizer?
Fantastic! And now I want a Z8 to b-cam my Komodo. BUT - what dolly is that you're using with the rubber tracks and sit-down platform? Do you like it? Does VJUS own it?
Amazing work again, I saw your amazing work with the Z9. How far can you comfortably push the ISO at the moment?
wonderful job guys. interesting to see how stable the image looked even while handheld. what's your preferred everyday z lens?
Nice. How would this AF TRACKING (lock on) system perform for birds in flight and wildlife in VIDEO MODE ?
Great job guys. In your view, how close is the video AF to Sony’s? Trying to figure which to go for out of this or the FX3. Also, what iso were you using in low light, and do you feel you struggled at night?

Hey was wondering what memory cards you were using? Love the video!
Wow Handheld the whole time.
What do you think about the Canon R5C camera? It has similar parameters.
Hello Andy. Got a question do you keep the finger pressed when recording? I see the finger all the time and makes me think if finger needs to kept pressed. Also what af and setting for recording you use?
Beautiful as always! What was the dolly you used in the upcoming video? Is there a link for it?
Thanks. CamDolly!
Hey guys. I never shoot prores on my z9 because the raw is just smaller whilst better in quality. So as long as you are using davinci to edit, there is no point in using prores.
Me vendiste la z8 ❤
Fab content thank you, did you find the dji link reliable?
Varför använder ni inte en gimbal? Känns som det hade underlättat väldigt mycket....
👏👏👏👏👏
how did you set the white balance, is it auto?😊
Everything is manual settings, except the autofocus.
Good job I liked your video, could you give me the link of the smoke machine that you used thanks
I wish you show us if z8 can give quality as you have at 15:54 (studio shoot). Because when I compare music video and the shot from studio, seems like z8 is not that good
are you using auto white balance?
