I just started thinking of making videos, and I own a Z30. I initially thought I'd need some crazy 6k, 10 bit capable camera, but this is just proof that you need the skill and passion more than anything. Thanks for the video!
I have the Z30. I’ve also LUMIX and Sony cameras. The Z30 is my favourite camera- goes in my pocket. It looks amazing out of camera. Also very nice with the Viltrox 16mm F1.4. One of the most underrated cameras you can buy under £1000.
The Nikon Z 30 gives me that organic look and seeing how the visuals looks great. Awesome work!! Is there a tutorial of the color grading that you did with this video?
The issue between 8-bit and 10-bit is not about the quality of the footage, it's about the flexibility in post. I've worked on 40 feature films and you cannot get the same control out of 8-bit as you can with 10-bit. With 8-bit, you will get pink artifacts in some portions of the image if the lighting isn't controlled or you're under exposed. In your studio, under controlled lighting, you have more possibilities. But, don't make the mistake thinking that 8-bit will give you the same choices in post or in grading as 10-bit. It won't.
Yes, I know. That’s why I mention both are graded. I also mention the grades aren’t super heavy, so I’m comparing these two the way most consumers would use them. No one will use these two cameras to film the next Netflix show with a heavy grade on top. Thanks for watching.
EXACTLY!! 8-bit is fine as long as the image was captured well in camera- but try to change white balance/get details from shadows or highlights/apply an aggressive grade and the 8-bit will fall apart much quicker than the 10bit. Kind of like jpeg vs. RAW - jpeg is fine as long as you don't need to tweak it much...
While I didn’t change the white balance much, shadows were raised in camera. I shot this in a custom flat profile that acts as log somewhat, which means mids and shadows are raised to give you more dynamic range. Usually people don’t like to shoot 8-bit in log, because of the image falling apart when they grade it. All of this, I’m showing in the video: slightly raised shadows and mids, pushing colours in the shadows, mids and highlights and tweaking oranges, reds and yellows.
this is a nice comparison, I guess I am partial, thus feel the nikon was better, or rather more akin to my taste. I quite like the grading to to be honest. I do wonder, could you tell us next time what lens youre using on both? because I wonder if a faster lens on one and not the other could affect the quality by a significant margin.
Yup, I forgot to mention that, but I kept it pretty similar. 35mm f2 on the Fujifilm and 40mm f2 on the Nikon. However, I realized in the past that Nikon lenses blur out the background a bit more than Fujifilm lenses. I think Fujifilm aperture numbers might be slightly off. I remember comparing a 20mm f1.8 Nikon (on crop) vs 23mm f2 Fujifilm and I shot both at f2 at same distance from the subject. Technically, Fujifilm should have given me more blur, because it was 23mm, but actually Nikon gave me more blur. But yeah, the lenses here were pretty similar. Nikon was slightly longer focal length.
@@visualsbyst ah right perfect thanks so much. Now I am even more interested in picking up the 40f2 .. especially for video. Seems like a steal at the price
Hi sir Both the cinematic videos are awesome ❤️ i just want to know in which app do you edit once after you shot the video from cam ? And in which mode and what should be the settings we should keep and take the videos please ?
Hi, thank you. I use DaVinci Resolve. It is free, but professional software for video editing. The mode depends on the camera. If the camera has log, I’d use it. If it doesn’t, I’d use some flat profile. The settings depend on the lighting. If I’m shooting in 24 fps, then my shutter speed is 1/50. The aperture depends on whether I need shallow depth of field or not. The ISO depends on how dark the scene is.
Autofocus is good but obviously not the best. Depending on what you’re filming, you won’t always depend on the autofocus anyway. Overall, it’s good enough. Image stabilization is nonexistent, so you have three options: a stabilized lens, a gimbal, or post production stabilization. All three can be good enough, but the first two are probably preferable.
great video mate, earned a subscriber here! Just got a question, so would it be best to film on neutral/flat (unsure what the term is) and then color grade in post prod after if you're wanting to tweak colours/enhance images on the Z30? I read somewhere that the ZV30 has no log or cinema profile so I'm just thinking of ways if I wanted to improve the colours. Thank you
Hey, thanks for watching. That’s right, Z30 doesn’t have log. Log isn’t the best if you’re shooting in 8bit. LOG is usually in Rec2020 color space and needs to be transformed into Rec709. That is sometimes problematic if the image is only 8 bit. Since the Z30 is 8 bit and doesn’t have LOG, I like to shoot in flat profile. This profile lowers contrast, increases shadows and lowers highlights, so they are controlled easier. It also may decrease saturation slightly. Then, when I post process it, I can add contrast how much I want and I can push some colour in shadows, mids and highlights if I want to. One thing you don’t want to do is shoot in flat if you’re not going to edit. If you’re going to use the video straight out of camera, then the video might be too flat. Hope that helps.
@@visualsbyst thank you for you response! That's great to know actually, I appreciate that. I believe from what I've seen from other reviewers, the standard colours on the Z30 are actually great, would you agree? If i didn't plan to edit my videos it would be just fine, shooting not in a flat profile of course.
Colours are very good, yes. Also, you can tweak any profile in camera, so you can even make the standard profile a bit flatter if you wanted to. That would probably be the best way to go about it if you’re not editing.
@@visualsbyst thank you thats really helpful! so is flatter meaning colours will be dull and that would give you more flexbility in post to color grade?
😅😁 -------- Hello, excellent video and great content. I have a Z30 and I've already downloaded the flat profile from your page. How do I install it on the camera? Do I transfer the file to the SD card, or how can I achieve this? 😅 I don't have experience installing files on cameras. Greetings from a new Mexican follower.😁
Hey, thank you for watching. If I understood correctly (my Spanish isn’t the best), you are asking how to install the flat profile on your camera. You will have to transfer the profile on an SD card and then put the card in the camera. Go to Menu - Photo Shooting - Manage Picture Control - Load - Copy to Camera and then pick the profile. Click OK. Then you’ll find the profile on your list of all the other profiles. Let me know if that works.
Hey, sure. I’ll make a video on video editing in the next week or two. I use DaVinci Resolve, but you can use whatever suits you, including Adobe Premiere. DaVinci Resolve, however, is the most powerful free software out there, in my opinion. Cheers.
You have to install it on your camera. You’ll have to put it on a clean SD card and transfer it to your camera. Once the SD card is in, find the custom picture profile in settings and there will be an option to upload it. If you’re having trouble, search “how to install Nikon picture profile” in Google or RUclips.
Hi, I used the 40mm f2 for the Nikon and 35mm f2 for the Fujifilm. However, don’t focus on that. It’s irrelevant which lenses I used. Pick the right lens for the job. You could get the same look with an 85mm, or the 24mm, only the perspective would be different, but the colours wouldn’t change. I colour graded this and that’s where the colours come from. Whatever lens you have right now, you could film something similar.
Thank you so much for the answer) So it's native lenses for the systems with close focal distance and aperture. As for the colours I had some wierd colour accents with cheap chinese TTArtisan 12mm so now I pay attention to lenses regarding colours as well).
@@Qwertzytamine Yes, that’s correct. And yes, cheap lenses from TTArtisan and similar might be tempting to get, but there’s always some issue. Even many Viltrox lenses have issues and they aren’t that cheap. My 56mm f1.4 had awful purple fringing in high contrast situations that could even be completely removed in post. The Nikon lenses might be plastic and cheap looking, but the image quality is much better.
Hi friend, this camera Can I use it to record social events such as weddings at night with extra LED lighting? Thank you. I am not a professional but I had a Canon Vixis Hfg10 and it had the quality that I required. Now I want to buy a hybrid with good quality photo and video. Greetings.
You absolutely can film weddings with LED. If Canon Vixia gave you the quality you required, then this camera will give you even better quality. It has a much larger sensor and it is 4K.
I really like the Fuji footage here a bit better, but maybe it's because the highlights were a bit lower and not so much the 10 bit vs 8 bit. Also, which recorder are you using on the boom? It sounds great. Would love to know more about your audio setup / processing.
I’m using a fairly cheap and simple Zoom H1N. That’s it. Not running it through anything else. My processing isn’t complicated either. I listen to it and see what needs to be done. I might take out some low frequencies and tweak it slightly. I don’t do much to it. Thanks for watching.
hey brother i purchased your presets/luts, but when i downloaded it i don’t know what to use to open and view the videos. i’m still learning computer and camera stuff, could you let me know what i should use to open the video? thanks
Hey, thanks for the purchase. So the LUTs are for videos and the PRESETS are for photos. The LUTs you will have to use in any video editor like Adobe Premiere or DaVinci Resolve. DaVinci Resolve is free. Once you download and install a video editor, you’ll then open the video in that program. You’ll have to install the LUTs in that program and use them there. Once you do all that, let me know if you’re still having problems.
That is only for photos. Pretty much every Canon, Nikon, Sony, Panasonic and Fujifilm camera is capable of shooting 14-bit photos. Some cameras have the option to choose from 12-bit or 14-bit. Personally, I’d only shoot in 14-bit, although even 12-bit is good enough. Z50, Z30 and Zfc can only shoot 8-bit video.
No, I haven’t. Although, I only recorded clips that were 30-35 minutes long and didn’t go past that. Not because it was overheating, but because I never had to.
Hello Sir, you done a great review on the picture quality of Z30❤ Please Make same video on Canon R10❤Love From india 🇮🇳 I'm waiting for your Canon R10 Picture & Video quality review video ❤
Vast majority of cameras don’t have shutter curtain when you change lenses. It’s never been a big problem. Eventually, some dust gets in, but you can blow it out. I don’t think shutter curtains are a solution either. Dust can easily get in around the shutter curtain when you’re changing lenses. Then when you turn the camera on and the shutter curtain is lifted, all that dust that was on the curtain, gets on the sensor. So, it’s the same problem.
@@visualsbyst Thanks for Your reply. The Z9 does have a shutter curtain so Nikon does think this is an option for sensor protection. I think this an area in which developments will occur. Having corrected sensor dust spots in Davinci Resolve using a a png mask I know that is something I want to avoid.
What lens are you using for Nikon? Seems impossible you did that with the kit lens. Its dark but it's not grainy. So you must have the iso not too high, but then the max aperature is slow.
It’s 40mm f2. It wouldn’t be impossible to do it with the kit lens, though. The video is lit with an off camera light with a softbox. The light you see in the video is just ambient and doesn’t light the scene. If I was using the kit lens and had to stop down to 4.5 or 5.6, I would just turn up the light and keep the ISO low.
@@visualsbyst 2 questions: 1. I downloaded the free LUT you posted for Nikon Flat, but how do I apply it to in premiere pro? 2. Is Flat footage simply rec709 with saturation and contrast turned way down?
1. The flat profile is to be installed in camera. It’s not a LUT, it’s a picture profile. 2. The profile is rec709, yes. The curve was changed to make it flatter.
I like the 8 bit better, too. Keep in mind, though, that this wasn’t just a comparison between 8-bit and 10-bit. It was two different cameras and so the reason I like it better is because I like the Nikon look better. Thanks for watching.
Hi. Very cool picture. I visited your website and downloaded a flat profile. Thanks. I want to buy loot, but I would like to see how they work with a picture on a video in real time. Is it possible?

Not needed! Just keep making videos.
If you want even flatter, turn on active D-lighting while in flat. It lifts shadows that much more and enables further preserving of highlights.

The X-T3 has a more textured image, but the Z30 has significantly more natural skin tones. Love those Nikon colors!
Once again - Nikon Z30 is stupidly good :)
Great video by the way!
Love the colours of the Z30.
Same here!
I like the look of the Nikon over the Fiji. It is very clean and the colors looked more natural.
I agree.

@@visualsbyst For many users, I would say that 8-bit would probably serve their needs. Especially if they’re focusing on RUclips content.
@@AllThingsFilm1 sure. More and more cameras have 10 bit now, though, so 8-bit might be a thing of the past at some point in the near future.

hey brother i purchased your presets/luts, but when i downloaded it i don’t know what to use to open and view the videos. i’m still learning computer and camera stuff, could you let me know what i should use to open the video? thanks
Hey, thanks for the purchase. So the LUTs are for videos and the PRESETS are for photos. The LUTs you will have to use in any video editor like Adobe Premiere or DaVinci Resolve. DaVinci Resolve is free. Once you download and install a video editor, you’ll then open the video in that program. You’ll have to install the LUTs in that program and use them there. Once you do all that, let me know if you’re still having problems.
One of the menues gives the option of 12 bit or 14 bit. What is this?
That is only for photos. Pretty much every Canon, Nikon, Sony, Panasonic and Fujifilm camera is capable of shooting 14-bit photos. Some cameras have the option to choose from 12-bit or 14-bit. Personally, I’d only shoot in 14-bit, although even 12-bit is good enough. Z50, Z30 and Zfc can only shoot 8-bit video.
What lenses did you use?
Nikon 40mm f2 and Fujinon 35mm f2.
Hi! Have you ever encount overheating issue while recording 4K video over 30mins?
No, I haven’t. Although, I only recorded clips that were 30-35 minutes long and didn’t go past that. Not because it was overheating, but because I never had to.
Yes both are great, very tough to see the difference. Nice video and I got here looking to see how the Bokeh effect was. Good luck with your channel

It seems there is no shutter curtain when You change lenses? Is this not a problem? Dust?
Vast majority of cameras don’t have shutter curtain when you change lenses. It’s never been a big problem. Eventually, some dust gets in, but you can blow it out.
I don’t think shutter curtains are a solution either. Dust can easily get in around the shutter curtain when you’re changing lenses. Then when you turn the camera on and the shutter curtain is lifted, all that dust that was on the curtain, gets on the sensor. So, it’s the same problem.

If you’re talking about LUTs, yes they do.
@@visualsbyst thanks
What lens are you using for Nikon? Seems impossible you did that with the kit lens. Its dark but it's not grainy. So you must have the iso not too high, but then the max aperature is slow.
It’s 40mm f2. It wouldn’t be impossible to do it with the kit lens, though. The video is lit with an off camera light with a softbox. The light you see in the video is just ambient and doesn’t light the scene. If I was using the kit lens and had to stop down to 4.5 or 5.6, I would just turn up the light and keep the ISO low.

2 questions:
1. I downloaded the free LUT you posted for Nikon Flat, but how do I apply it to in premiere pro?
2. Is Flat footage simply rec709 with saturation and contrast turned way down?
1. The flat profile is to be installed in camera. It’s not a LUT, it’s a picture profile.
2. The profile is rec709, yes. The curve was changed to make it flatter.
@@visualsbyst Once the flat profile is on the camera, how do you get it back to Rec 709?
It’s already Rec709. You don’t have to change it.
Nikon Does it overheat ?
I haven’t shot very long clips, but the ones I’ve shot, it didn’t overheat. I’ve shot clips over 30 minutes in 4K 24fps.
i''ll go to nikon z30 its more cinematic color and the sharpness so good
Yes!
C'est le jour et la nuit
Wow, I actually like the 8 bit better?
I am also a total noob and have no clue lol. 🤷♂🤷♂
I like the 8 bit better, too. Keep in mind, though, that this wasn’t just a comparison between 8-bit and 10-bit. It was two different cameras and so the reason I like it better is because I like the Nikon look better. Thanks for watching.
Is z30 better than Sony and canon wow
Which ones?
Hasta Sony a6300 del 2016 es mucho mejor que Nikon Z30 y Z50.
Nikon parece abuelito, ya no mejora todas sus cámaras 🤦🤦
Is that true? Link me to this amazing stuff you created with it.
z30 looks better to me. You look pale and sick on the second one.
Cause he's a vampire in real life.
Hi. Very cool picture. I visited your website and downloaded a flat profile. Thanks. I want to buy loot, but I would like to see how they work with a picture on a video in real time. Is it possible?
I will make a video showing that next week and I'll notify you. Thanks
Which lens you used on z30 ?
40mm f2
@@visualsbyst thank you so much for answer. I think to buy one of this lens.
