High frame shots are from where the skater has almost stopped at the top in the video. Why? I could take that photo well in focus with my phone camera too.
I’m listening…. I’m still using my d7200, which is great, but Sony has made me really consider switching with their autofocus, but if this rivals then I might stay with Nikon
@@RejeRushgood to know, I guess I’ve just seen more content on how good the Sony is. I want to stay with Nikon, so I’ve just been on standby since my current situation doesn’t warrant the upgrade
It's to differentiate it from the Z8. The partially stacked sensor is also not quite as fast as the fully stacked sensor in the Z8/Z9. But regardless I'm pretty sure any performance hit is artificially imposed by Nikon via firmware.
I am debating between the Zf and the Z6iii. It is $500 price difference. What are the differences in the real world apart from the ergonomics? I wish the Z6iii would have came with a sensor shield to help reduce dust spots when switching lenses. I may lean in favor of the Zf after all.
If you don't need the video spec or aren't shooting wildlife or sports, the Zf is more than capable (it can actaully shoot wildlife too, it's just the blackout may be a bit worse and in electronic shutter mode you may experience more warping since the older Z6 sensor reads slower. But if you don't shoot that kind of stuff, I'd say save the $500 and put it towards a lens or a trip somewhere. The Z6 III IMO was geared really for videographers, with some eatures for photographers, like the improved AF and various subject detection modes found on the Zf and Z8/Z9.
@@HR-wd6cw Thank you. I have the Nikon Z5 that i really like for the color rendition. I also shoot Sony APSC (A6700 and A6600) that i like for the small size and great AF. My main issue with the Z5 is just in video mode some rolling shutter at wide angle, even with slow pans (but it does not happen all the time). I tried the Zf at the B&H store and the eye AF seemed on par with the Sony A6700, of not better, as it allows select the eye. The portraits I take with the Nikon look great straight out of the camera, better skin tones and colors than the Sony, even if I shoot RAW all the time. Shooting RAW video in camera is a great option, still I am wondering if it is worth the hassle. Not sure how much larger the storage is. I anyway output video in 1080p, on my iMac I hardly see the difference between 1080p and 4K. I shoot mostly photos, auto ISO and M or P. The Zf would make it easy to switch S/S from 1/2000 to 1/125 when switching from photo to video. I can also do it with the Z5 and A6700 but the implementation on the Zf is more visual and intuitive,
I just have one simple question: How does one "partially stack" a thing? Seems to me like an is or is not kind of a situation with no room for interpretation. I know the marketers just love to make marketing noise, partially stacked sure sounds like noise to me.
Well Nikon just shot all of us photographers (not videographers), in the foot. I shoot all my paid gigs and events with two Z6ii's. For me they are over 90% fantastic - only lacking a bit in the AFC department. I barely miss any focus, even with faster moving subjects. However, I was interested in looking seriously at replacing them with the new Z6iii. However, I now know it has that stinking flip around screen for videographers. I shoot over 70% of all my gigs with the flip down screen. If I do this with the Z6iii, I'll have the stupid screen flipped off centre and hanging out the side of the camera. This is a deal breaker, so looks like my Z6ii's, will be lasting a very long time. Thanks Nikon for throwing all us photographers under the bus!!
I agree, tilting screen is much better for still shooting. As a hybrid camera that targets both still and video shooters, the best approach for a manufacturer to produce the screen that does both, tilts and articulates, just as on Sony A7RV, and on Panasonic GH6. And no, I don't want extra hustle attaching monitors (or phones, how lame that gonna look) for certain projects.
Give them a break. It's a tough decision tomake. Videographers want a flippy screen and so do some photographers, and fewer want a tilting screen like what was found on the Z6/Z7 I/II bodies. They can't have both (well, they could have done something like the Z8/Z9 screens which I guess is more a compromise between both designs but it can't flip around 170-180 degrees for selfies. I agree that this is more a video camera than a stills camera due to the design decisions but again, video is becoming more popular and this was a decision they had to make. My Zf has the same design and I've learned to just deal with it (it has its advantages though over the previous tilt designs though, for example when shooting down low a flippy screen is nice). It does sound like while you were perhaps looking forward to this, you just basically told us you really didn't need the camera either, since you had such great success with the Z6 II, so save the cash and stick with those, or put that money towards a Z8 which would be an even bigger upgrade that's got some extra features and you can have your 2-way tilting screen (without it being a flip-out screen). In some respects, at $2500 for the Z6 III this makes the sale price on the Z8 a real bargain...
Many of us videographers also prefer the tilty screen as the flippy one blocks the ports on the side and makes maintaining the horizon a tad more difficult. This screen is only better for self recording, an advantage that vanishes when you plug a mic.

Thank U for good explanation of specs! Better than the others.

I would have loved to see 33mp
Z7iii is for you
@@camilo8cheryli heard it ain’t coming
Thanks for the vid. I was just planning to get a Z8, so would you mind a vid comparing it with Z8 also.
Thats a good video idea.
@@BandH Really would like to compare the video N-RAW color / quality with the Z8/Z9.
You know if you need a Z8
Except for the 33mpx it looks way better than my Sony a7IV

Nikon autofocus has been rivaling Sony's since the Z9 came out.

@@RejeRush So... a whole year?
@@Zenutheduck-to4nr My apologies I meant to say the Z9 not 8. So that adds a few years haha.
I wonder why the iso performance is limited while it has the advantage of lower mp of 24

Hope you have a lot in stock!
As of today (6.19.24) our estimated shipping date June 25th. Please not it is subject to change. So I suggest you put in your preorder!
Perfect B-cam to my Z9! 👍🏾 🏴🇸🇪🇹🇹

This looks like a competitor to canon R3
waiting for next version of Z9
240fps is in 10-bit...
I just have one simple question: How does one "partially stack" a thing? Seems to me like an is or is not kind of a situation with no room for interpretation. I know the marketers just love to make marketing noise, partially stacked sure sounds like noise to me.
I believe that the top and bottom portions of the sensor is stacked to speed up the read out overall.
we can see also new improve body design .... something sony and some brands cannot afford to do ... well done nikon
Is it possible to make flash light with electric shutters?
The Nikon Z6III will operate with a single or multiple electronic wireless flash triggers (Advanced Wireless Lighting - AWL). >Mark

Doesn't really matter. You can mount any phone or small video monitor on the top of the camera to simulate the Zii.
By the Z3 with confidence

Huh?
A toy compared to the D850.
lol get over it. D850 is a rugged high res beast but now it's outdated. Can't beat the advancements and conveniences of new tech.
@@shadow479 Yes, some people use toys to play, some others use tools like the D850 to do work.
