I have stopped watching them since 2018. I found Fro is worse than them though. He is also more dangerous as he was a Nikon shooter in the past and now hate them(Nikon) passionately.
@@alphakaka6155 Why is Fro worse?. But Northups seem to talk a lot about same subjects, and talk about is this cheating? bla bla. But they bombard the videos with Squarespace ads.
I stucked with Nikon when they released Z6...now have Z9 and Z6III and a nice line-up of Z lenses..happy Nikon camper, good thing I didn't jump ship. Just love Nikon ergonomics, feel, premium S lenses.
Recently got a Z30 with the f1.7 35mm. Beats the crackers out of my old canons, part is that tech has advanced but that's just an amazing lens with out of box color and allows long video. Nikon is really killing it!
Tony loves to hate on Nikon. They just don’t pay him enough attention or give him the respect, he thinks, he deserves. He shouldn’t be taken too seriously.
Canon paid him well to spread BS about Nikon when both companies launched their mirrorless cameras. I still remember these people made such a big deal about the first Nikon mirrorless cameras not having 2 card slots but were completely ok with Canon having just one and of inferior specs. That's the video that made me stop watching those two.
If memory serves me, a few years ago when I believe the Nikon Z50 was introduced, Tony Northrup went on You Tube declaring to his viewers that no one should by one. He had no example to show. That is because Nikon didn't give him one. He was apparently put off by that.
I noticed something interesting. Your Hat and the 'Y.' Let's see, I have shirt with the same art. Let me guess, you hit the slots at Yaamava. My wife and I go there, wife more frequently. I know that place, it gives me headaches with all that loud music. Do you go often there? Love to bump into you if you do. Hope Nikon stays alive. My nearby camera store in Riverside, Ca., is really big on Nikon. I bought my Nikon F2 and FE2 at Yokota AB, Japan around the early 1980s. Still have them. The F2 motor crapped out but the FE2 motor is still working. Cameras are jewels of the Camera World. Beautiful. The history of Nikon is rich, making better cameras than Leica. All this was after WW2 ended. Another note about Nikon is the photographer who shot the photo of Jack Ruby shooting Lee Harvey Oswald did so on a Nikon S. I was around when all this happened.
Vags, this happened to us by a regular client, a high dollar client business client, but a client nevertheless that we normally do their all of their video, photography and website work for. Another photographer/ friend of this company took credit for one of our photos and represented this company and had their name on another website with our photo, and yes, we went the F... off. The company attempted an excuse. Due to our long work history, we let it slide, but we told them that they will face legal action in the future, and it's well written in next year's contract. Because we frequent the same circles there was no way that we wouldn't have seen this. Vags, it feels like someone spat in your face and we are not having it. I haven't seen that photographer yet and don't know her personally, but she will feel my wraith if and when I see her because no photographer worth their salt would ever take credit for another photographer's work and feel good about it.
"Some of the predictions we've made in the past have been accurate. Maybe we know a little bit about what we're actually talking about here." Oh, 'some'. Ah, _'some'._ Something something broken clock something something twice a day.
All those clickbait RUclipsrs can be ignored. T&C lost me, not because of any reason than their content doesn’t add anything for me. My policy is anytime a channel opines _______ is dead 💀, I’m not interested in joining their cult. I will just ignore them.
Chelsea and Tony were right. Nikon was dying. The don't even make their own sensors anymore (Sony does). They quit making their cameras in Japan, Canon still does both of these but they are struggling, and had lost market share to Sony. But both Canon and Nikon have turned it around and are producing great cameras. They produce pro bodies, something Sony does not even do. So I am glad Nikon was able to turn it around and start making money again.
There was a whole "anti Nikon" trend for a while. It was popular to crap on Nikon because the z7 and z6 had terrible autofocus and their customer service has been poor at best. Most of these camera reviewers care about the same specs and trends and simply just compare the "latest" with the other pool of "latest" gear. Even when it was a 1-1 feature they would play it down when Nikon did it but act like it was great when Canon or Sony had it. Nikon absolutely has their own problems but "photo media" is just as prone to hyperbole as any other form of media... I stopped watching a lot of reviewers a few years ago.
One of my photos was published in a UK online newspaper. When I complained, they said "prove it". Trouble was, all the exif/metadata was stripped off it. It's still there.
10:13 Same here dude. Nikon's marketing is the worst compared to the other brands in my opinion. Remember the amateur hour, snooze fest at the WPPI presentation!? It's either one, the current reps are too old for anyone under 25 to know OR! Too young for anyone over 25 to know. They need to reach out to working pros in the 30-50 age bracket, who either one, have a decent following on this platform like you, or two, guys like me who still blog and drive signification traffic to their own websites.
Well said V! You are always spot on (99.005%, great job)! ;) Love your channel and hate it when you take a break! What's your true thoughts on a real D500 replacement? To me Z6 III is kind of a big no or maybe. My perfect world I would have a Z9 II or Z500 (wait a few months?) and my Z8. Have the Z8 but need a separate (2nd camera). Rockwell, Polen, and others can kiss my tush!
Tony & Chelsea might have been mistaken, but it's worth noting that not long ago, their outlook seemed quite bleak. They weren't alone in forecasting Nikon's downfall. Kudos to Nikon for persevering and reclaiming a significant market share.
i lost touch with them. i do not agree with them anymore and do not trust them anymore. when they said something that was wrong. will not go out and say we sorry or being wrong. do not care if say thing not true and comeback say it we where wrong saying not true
Meanwhile: Nikon is alive and well ❤
I haven't watched those two & the Fro for a few years. Don't miss 'em.
So do I?
I have stopped watching them since 2018. I found Fro is worse than them though. He is also more dangerous as he was a Nikon shooter in the past and now hate them(Nikon) passionately.
We all make mistakes

Haha that was good. “ Are you in your senses or what? ‘ lol
Aye, he's back!!!! 🎉❤

Thanks Vahag! That was a great informative Video and really stresses the importance of copyrighting whether photogrpahy or music for that matter!
2016 when you bought your D850? You had some early access bro!
my bad bro. it was 2017. i bought so many. got mixd up.
Chelsea & Tony were wrong
A lot.
Just for a change! I love the “how can we save it question”... Well if Tony stops talking Nikon down it would be nice, really nice!!

The guy is a massive loon lol
Don't give too much priority to the northrup family's remarks and reviews.. I don't consider them as pro photographers
Nikon needs to come out with the 35mm 1.2 and 300mm 2.8 for the Z mount!

I've missed u Vaha, finally getting ur video in my homepage again, youtube hates me, that's why it has been hiding ur videos from me :/

Two narcissistic scam artists.
Lol definitely the morning Joe of the photography world. That is what happens when Nikon doesn't give them free cameras for contest etc.
dead? my Nikon Z camera is still working. 😎
lol... Tony and the woman just click baiters! If people are still watching them it is their fault to getting lied to!
Thanks V, keep the Rock n Roll photo channel alive Brotha 😀😀😀
BenCHUTTT lololol

anyone that believed that foolishness is a dummy. nikon is nowhere near dead. Merely a series of ideos to stir things up and to get views.
What’s good?
I want Nikon to release a 14 f1.4, similar to the Sigma on all the mounts except Z and of course R mount, for astro work.

Professionals were always using Nikon, we never listened to those phonies.
