I attended the official launch of Nikon Z6 III in Malaysia a few days ago, and I took this opportunity to have a quick hands on the new Z6 III. I am actually quite impressed with this latest camera from Nikon - it has advanced 5-Axis IS, flagship level AF, great EVF, excellent build and handling and all that with an asking price that is lower than the latest Micro Four Thirds cameras (comparison done in Malaysia market pricing).

How many photographers are there think that Nikon Malaysia should lend Robin Wong Nikon Z6III For a long-term trial and do a review on this latest camera from Nikon.
oh hell yes.
do it nikon!!
Hey, you are pirating my toughts😂😂😂
Let's do this. Now.
Just because of this enthousiasme and smile he's more qualified and genuine! also he can invent any reason to justify nikon pricing.
Hey Robin! Who would have thought three years ago that Nikon would become an option! Good to see you are having fun!
They did not have Z6 III 3 years ago! And 3 years ago, Micro Four Thirds prices have not gone so crazy high.
@@robinwong should i chang my om1 mark1 to this z6iii or tofujixt50
Nikon has always been an option. Their history extends back FAR past three years, lol.
While all else about them SCREAM... Nikon always is the cream! FM... FE... F4/5/6... D2X... then the full-frame digitals came along with the D3 moment and the (36MP) D3X followed that! D4/5/6, D810 and then the D850 moment... then the Z-mount! Z9 and Z8 and now the Z6III... the dream team cream always tops the lot.
@@selianboy8508 D3X = 24MP.
funny that I love Nikon cameras as of late. I bought both Z-fc and Zf for my own use and agree with many things, especially Zf, which is more or less Z6 III minus the EVF. AF is really one of the best on the market that I've tried over the past few years.
Yeah I'm glad Nikon managed to bounce back and they are at a much better place now. Hope they continue to push boundaries and not stay complacent.
@@robinwong Robin they cannot stay complacent!!!!! Any camera brand that will, they will go away :(
I love your enthusiasm! I’m torn between this and the Zf. The Z 6 III is the clear winner but I love that retro design. I do have the Z fc so I might just keep that as my retro camera and add the Z 6 III to my bag.
Love what Nikon has been doing with their Z series camera. This z6 iii is something I would consider getting in the future. But before that I’ll be getting a used z5 soon to try. Have a great time in Kuching! Wish mama Wong happy birthday!
Thanks for the well wishes. When you get the Z5, make sure you have the firmware updated to the latest version, AF improves quite a bit!
Hi Robin, my friend has the Nikon Z6 ii and he is very happy with it, but this new Z6 iii is very impressive and some nice improvments. Thanks Robin for showing this wonderful Camera, and there will be a lot of happy photographers out there. 😊
I have no interest in video, so I'm very hopeful that a new Z5 II will focus as well as this Z6 III - at a cheaper price. I love my Z5, I just wish the focusing was a bit more advanced.
Nikon should use the ZF sensor in the Z5 II hopefully keep that entry level Full Frame priced to sale!
Thanks for being honest all the time! 😊
Thanks appreciate the support!
I used a manual focus Nikon F3 film camera back in the 1990s and early 2000s. My nephew uses that camera now. I choose the original Olympus E-M5 back in 2013 after one year with the Nikon 1 system. If Nikon had launched the Z-mount back in 2013 with similar type of IBIS as Olympus, I might have chosen that system. I guess most of armature photographers consider the cost of all the lenses in addition to the cost of the camera and it becomes much more expensive to jump to another system. Overall, I am pleased with the OM-1 and a mixture of Olympus and Panasonic lenses for my use. However, it might be difficult to attract new customers to Micro4/3s when the cost of a full frame very capable Nikon camera is similar to the OM-1 Mk.ii.
M43 gear, should be 75% of the costs what it is now. Then you add some sales discounts from time to time, at it will be appealing.
Thanks so much for this video since you are looking at this camera from the same performance/stage shooting perspective that I work in. I too am very interested in this camera. I wish you had a chance to use this in one of your performance shoots because I'd like to know about its rolling-shutter behavior in stills. In my nightclub work, with rapidly moving performers and spinning dancers, I often get facial distortions (a bit more off-putting than body/limb warping) that I can only attribute to rolling shutter (using electronic shutter from between 1/120-1/200 sec). This is with every body I have tried (A6700, A7CII, OM-1Mk1, G9M2). I don't have the $$ for an A9-III (who does?) and I'm interested in seeing how the Z6-III does in comparison to my other cameras.
Nikon is back in a big way
Hello, thank you for the coverage. How do you find the IBIS compared to the om1? I mean usually the FF IBIS numbers are not close to real world performance.
I think if you upgrade from your Z5, you will be very happy. I enjoy my Panasonic G9 M2 and my Nikons and my Fuji X-T5. I like the challenge of switching brands and sensor sizes. It is nice to see an open-minded review. I have a Z6 III on order but it may not arrive in time for the trip I want to take it on.
Hi Robin looks like you have added to my shopping list for my next visit to KL
Hi Robin :) I am 72yo. and I have been shooting Nikon (and other brands a little) since My Nikon F in 1967 (still have it) I came to mirrorless late with a Z5, then in mid 2023 a Z6II.. The cameras were in all aspects (except the AF in Canon n Sony),,, great cameras,,, Z9 came with the great AF but most of us could not afford the price or weight...... I have had the opportunity to shoot the Z8 a lot and it is Great (but no camera is perfect) ..... But when the Z6III came I knew I had to try it,,, and I went into debt to buy it (could return it),, BUT after using it I can not let it go.... It is about as Great as it could be :) :) :)
One thing I really like on some of the Nikon bodies like the Z6 III is the screen on the top of the body. I can quickly glance at the top and see what some of my settings are before I bring it to my eye. For me, it's not a make it or break it feature, but it makes it more fun for me. I also like the way the Z6 III and Z6 II vertical grips handle the batteries. You don't need to take off the handgrip to get to the battery in the camera body. Both batteries are in the handgrip E-M1X style. It makes it more convenient when I need to swap batteries
Image quality in this particular video looks pretty good! what was it recorded with?? BTW I love what Nikon is doing with their Z series, it took them some time but they are releasing quality products!
E-M1 Mark II of course
Nice camera! just looking at video reviews from people I trust like you, Robin, it seems that Nikon have released a series of excellent cameras with great "colour science" sensors, lenses and stabilisation technologies over the past couple of years. Great to see them ""back on track."
Although I'll be using a Canon 6D for the foreseeable future, I've always had a soft spot for Nikon.
This is because my film SLR which my Dad kindly bought for me in my teens was a 1975 Nikkormat FT2 with a Nikkor 50mm f/2 lens. I loved that camera, and was upset when it finally jammed beyond repair a couple of years ago after over 40 years (!) of moderate use. The 50mm lens is still operating perfectly, and I've purchased an adaptor for use with my 6D...
Thank you Robin
Question.....does the Z6iii have backlit buttons?
👏Go Robin!
Hey there, i just traded my Zf in for the Z6iii for the better ergonomics. But… though i am not a big video guy, i just need an all a rounder camera for wildlife (flying, running, and stills) and for mostly landscape. I am not a professional, but i like good quality images so i can print and post on social media. Will this Z6iii (even though so many people say DR is bad) would it be good for a wildlife, nature, landscape camera? I don’t have a big budget, just want a camera that is great for what i do.
I think most of my photos have more landscapes than anything else, so knowing the tracking is good, for that rarity bird in flight will be great.
The ZF had better DR, but if you are shooting landscapes you have many different ways to get that DR back. That DR trade off gives you a camera with improved autofocus and video features. Hey the D700 was a great camera and the Z6iii has better DR. Also once you are at 800 ISO the Z63 is about the same DR as other current generations cameras.
Robin, I hope you can get a long-term loan from Nikon along with the 50/1.8 and 85/1.8. It would definitely be worth the marketing boost Nikon Malaysian would get after seeing you work your street portrait magic with this set-up. And, selfishly, I’d love to see it myself.😊
does look very impressive.
Here in Sweden the price is around 1000 dollars more than om-1 mk II and just 200 dollars less than Canon R5. (16 175 RM for the new Nikon incl. taxes.)
I think it's good that there's a worthy successor to my Z6II in case it dies or is stolen. If you can do a long-term test, test the Nikkor Z50/1.8. 😊
There are some complaints that dynamic range with the Z6III is not quite as good as the first generation and second generation Z6 cameras, seems like faster read out speeds improve auto focus and smooth out operation camera overall at the expense of dynamic range and image quality, seems like this is a problem overall with stacked sensor cameras, maybe these types of sensors need more powerful image processors that are not available right now, I do not know I’m not an engineer, just something I have noticed overall with all the cameras from all the camera manufactures with the same complaint.
Surprised no one is talking about this. I wonder how much really of a difference there is in IQ between OM-1 and this camera. Given the portability of M43 I think I'd still go for them over FF.
Thank you :)
I shoot Canon all my life. But this model makes me intrigued especially the EVF. I use EVF a lot when shooting. Canon EVF is a lot dim to my eye but does the Z6III EVF color accurate? I heard it look cooler than what shows on the back of the screen.
The EVF is more accurate than the back screen. The EVF is definitely better, than all the Nikon EVFS I have used so far. The EVF will not disappoint you. I recently did my first photoshoot with my Z6iii and my Z8. Both cameras performed well during the Golden and Blue hours.
@@williambuford6136 That's what i'm looking for! Get it right in camera is always a crucial thing. Canon EVF also quiet accurate but the main problem is it's not that bright especially when shooting facing the sun. This actually might solve my problem.
You can change the color.....
Hi, can you please make video on Nikon d700 is it worth buying
Do you need someone to tell you whether your GF is worth marrying 😂
Hey Robin, if you come to Thailand I will let you borrow mine to test more 😊
NGL, the Nikon Z6iii is my new dream camera body.
👏
listed price in Canada for OM systems OM-1 MK2 $3199.00, Nikon Z6III $3399.00 Canadian for a full frame camera it’s only an extra $200.00 Canadian,
And the Two lenses I’m interested in having four the Z6III Are not over my budget like the new super zoom lens from OM systems 150-600mm f/5.6-6.3 is, one of the best things about super zoom from Nikon. It has internal focus unlike the offering from OM systems besides the Nikon 180-600 f/5.6-6.3 VR being a good bit cheaper Plus the benefits of having a full frame sensor.
"Back of the envelope" calculations like that are fun, but they tend to omit a lot of real-world aspects. I have the OM-1ii + 300/4 combo, and it would be pretty hard to beat in terms of speed, sharpness and aberration control, within the same budget on FF.
@@JezdziecBezNicka That`s the way it is!
Dynamic Range
Nikon has been really pushing the envelope. My only gripe is these new fast sensors take a hit in dynamic range. That is one big reason for going FF. The Z5 has almost a stop better DR up until ISO 800.
Silly Boy !!!! I have looked at the files and I bet You could not tell the difference,, A group of us did and could not see any diff.,, It is said that Canon has less DR (You would not be able to see it)
One thing that isn't impressive is the dynamic range though...
I think it‘s an allround good camera.
But, with Olympus/OMS they always ask „where is the innovation?“ well, I don‘t see that in Sony/Canon/Nikon either. Apart of Sony‘s global shutter maybe.
It‘s always a bit more FPS, a bit more Megapixels, a bit faster focus…
Nikon/Canon/Sony are waiting for the competition to come up with innovations, so that they can outright copy it :) Just recall, for how long canon and nikon gaslit their customers by claiming that sensor-shift stabilization isn't needed, and lens stabilization is all that's necessary.
I've heard that the dynamic range is worse than the Z5
I have been consistently disappointed by Nikon colors, even if I wanted to love all the Nikons I owned. They all got sold, except for the Coolpix 990 from 2001, in which the CCD sensor can produce very nice results under the right conditions. So, I hope Nikon has finally fixed its colors, as Sony did for the first time with the A7IV and more recent models. Oh, yes, I shoot raw…
From other pre reviews I have seen, the auto focus is still not on par with Canon or Sony and both Nikon and Canon sticking with 24mp is the reason I have stuck with my Sony and OM-1. Although after my trip with the sony, I am leaning toward parting with my OM-1. I kept it for the features but anymore I don't find myself using them. One thing I must ask. Have they changed the grip? Nikon IMO has always had the absolute worst grip. Olympus and OM have always had the best.
Lol. Nikon has always had some of the best ergonomics in the business. You want to talk about a bad grip? Look at Sony.
@@cameraz99 you're kidding right? That thin shallow grip they have had on so many bodies? Garbage. My Sony A7IV grip is too small, I'll give you that. But with the small rig bottom plate it's a hell of a lot better than the Nikon's I've held.
Z6 III has worst dynamic range than mark II and mark I. Actually the dynamic range of Z6 III is the same as Canon Eos R...
My view of things: another new camera that takes photos just like an old camera.
Old cameras die. They don't last forever.
Dear Mr. DorfSchmidt, (Such an Apropos Name !! :) :) One of my friends had a similar attitude,,, He would say,, sex is the same with all women.. I said "Spoken by a man who has only had Sex with One Woman" IF YOU GET MY DRIFT !! :) :) :)
nice camera but its just too expensive. This is really only for people with unlimited $$ or the pros
Wait until Canon EOS R6III is released 😊
Yea we’re gonna keep waiting (R6ii user). Also, Canon is known to cripple down their mid level cameras, trying to avoid canalizing their flagship bodies. Nikon went all out with this one. This camera battle is getting fun!
Too dramatic and and should not compare with OM system which is a MFT?
You must be new. This channel is about Micro Four Thirds.
