    Nikon users have long memories, because many of us are just older. We remember numerous videos in which your judgements of Nikon have been rather harsh, and sometimes just incorrect. Then you would release glowing reviews/advertisements for the latest Sony releases. Your biases have been easy to see, and you did get more than a little petty after Nikon stopped sending you pre-release gear to review. Also, many of us haven't forgotten the trolling posts you made on Nikonrumors.
    Many of my fellow Nikon users just ignore you now, but I don't. You two still post some good videos, particularly the recent ones about Adobe and DxO. I just take anything you post about Nikon with a giant boulder of salt. And this video proves me right in doing so.

      Yes, Tony has been pretty hard on Nikon (and I shoot and love Nikon), but where there's smoke, there's fire. Let's face it, we've had a lot of problems with Nikon's mirrorless AF system. How many firmware updates has the Z9 had? The camera was half-baked at launch, to put it mildly. Nikon had to play 'catch up' for quite some time before getting to an acceptable level. To this day (and I still have all my pro reflexes) my Z6II has AF problems. The few firmware upgrades haven't solved the problem (and if I want better AF I'll have to upgrade to a Z8 or 9 or 6III) because the dual processor in my Z6II is still unreliable. And sometimes it works. Ethics dictate that when you spend £1,600 on a camera, even if the firmware isn't ready and Nikon decides to release it anyway, the manufacturer has to fix these problems as soon as possible, because the money we spent didn't 'need' a firmware upgrade. Nikon did not behave properly towards its customers. I'm sorry, but this is what happened with the old 6 and 7 series. And now the 7 has been discontinued as well... 5,6,?? 8 and 9? Who on earth is making these decisions at Nikon in Tokyo?

I shoot Nikon and love Nikon (will never buy a Sony) but let's give credit where credit is due.

Most of the firmware releases for the z9 included new features that weren't even listed when the camera shipped, that includes the unique and super valuable auto capture for example. Was the AF also further improved? Definitely yes and it progressed way more than that of the a1/R3 although they were very similar at the start (again as DPreview correctly reported back early 2022).
      The AF of the Z9 is way more than kind of working. It is still incredibly good and perfect for the most demanding applications. Certainly not 100% as good as that of cameras 3 years younger, but still totally brilliant for actually photography work.

    As you bring up your testing. I watched the Nikon ZF review again. You didn‘t compare the files with Fujifilm that you were promoting as the better choice. Maybe you didn‘t mean to say that but the way you present the camera and alternatives it comes of as Fuji being the better choice in nearly every way. I think the critiques in the comments are fair and calling all critics fanboys is a very cheap tactic to dodge criticism. Your script seemed so focused on promoting KEH that the actual review was mediocre. I‘m not saying that you were wrong with the weaknesses you pointed out but the actual strengths you just didn‘t care to put in: MF assist tools, files, full frame vs aps-c (should have been there when you bring up Fuji so much), AF comparison, etc.

    I do know a number of Nikon shooters (myself included) who will say this particular camera body does what i need with these great features, and I enjoy using it. My most recent experience, i was at an event with various levels of photographers and was asked what i shoot. I shoot Nikon and was then harrassed by 3 Canon shooters telling me my gear was no good. I said, "Use what you enjoy they are all just boxes that capture light." Just enjoy the photography. Still got smack talked at repeatedly throughput the event. I just ignored them. Funny thing they were shooting Canon Rebel dslrs while i was using a Nikon Z8. They are worlds apart on technical specs. This isn't an isolated experience, and it does get a bit annoying to have to deal with this stuff frequently. I don't mind some gentle ribbing as it is expected, but uninformed harassment gets annoying, especially if you aren't even wanting to talk shop on specs.

    Fanboyism can be explained using Festinger's cognitive dissonance theory. Buying an expensive camera and investing in a whole slew of lenses is almost always an anxiety raising move. What if I made the wrong choice? Will that choice improve my photography? Should I have spent so much money on all this gear? What about the other camera systems that I could have invested in? All of these, very common, concerns create tensions between our actions and beliefs, and those tensions can become intolerable if they last too long. Festinger claimed (with very good evidence) that we either succumb to accepting that our actions were wrong, and in this case, switch cameras, or modify our beliefs to become consonant with our actions. The latter would be to disregard any misgivings we may have had and to feel even stronger about the reasons we went with our initial choice. This reshaping of our beliefs to be consonant with our actions is often manifested in our reception of messages: gravitating to messages which reinforce our post-dissonant perspectives and avoiding/disagreeing with those messages which might reawaken our original cognitive dissonance.
    The bottom line is that the more which is at stake with any action, be it investing in a camera, a home, or even backing a political candidate, our resulting feelings about our decisions will be much stronger post-dissonance, even to the point of becoming closed to strong, well supported, arguments.

    Extreme comes in many forms. Fanboys make negative comments to reviewers and brands to justify the purchase or use of a different brand. I see them in every form of social media and forums and with every brand. I also see elitists who, much like fanboys, state that their equipment/software is the pinnacle in features, capabilities and results. I find many Canon owners fall into the latter category. I agree that Canon makes excellent equipment but they are the most expensive manufacturer for this high end of products. I think many photographers consider themselves mere mortals who have a limited budget. I find my camera choice is more about what I can afford for the type of photography I pursue. Right now, it happens to be Nikon because I like the Tamron 35-150 and Nikon 180-600.

    Hey Chelsea and Tony, I am a Nikon shooter. I do some paid work but am not trying to make a living with photography - especially now that I am retired. I want to enjoy shooting sports and not worry about deadlines etc. I also don't have disposable income to purchase a quality camera body and pro lens at the same time. So while I think I'd enjoy switching to Canon, just don't see that happening. Tony, I do want you to know that you did save me money. I was itching to try mirrorless. So, when the z6 and z7 came out, I was excited. But after watching your review, I stiffled my urge and continued to shoot with my D500. I did jump on the z6II and was mostly happy with it.

    I used to sell camera gear (from 2018-2021) and I am a huge huge huge camera gear nerd, I own many early DSLR’s from all companies, but Nikon has always been my favorite, I never hide that. But I still typically sold Canon or Sony gear over Nikon, because when I went over the features with that specific customer, the advantages Nikon offered didn’t really match those people. In 2024 Nikon’s mirrorless cameras are greatly improved, but it’s okay to admit that they have room to improve (especially at the bottom of their product stack).
    I sympathize with Tony and Chelsea, they are trying to steer people to whatever they think is the best gear for each situation. Cameras are huge purchases, and if you buy into a system that doesn’t match your needs it’s very expensive to move away. It’s exactly the same thing I tried to do with each person who asked me anything related to cameras.
    I’ve never felt like most of the major RUclipsrs hate Nikon disproportionally, and I don’t feel that here either. I think people feel mad when the purchase they made isn’t validated by reviews or comparisons between cameras. They think to themselves, “my camera does everything I need so well, how can it lose to these other ones!”. At the end of the day, all cameras are good, but when you ask “who is the best at x feature” it’s bound to not always be the same brand. When Nikon had a product many people considered the best, they sung praises about it, like with the D850, or even the Z 9. But there’s no need to defend these companies and their products. They are companies, not people.
    Despite knowing the the Z 6 II wasn’t the favorite pick among camera reviewers when it launched, I knew it matched the features I wanted. I knew this not just based on specs but based on having all the newest camera gear available at my fingertips, it also made sense because at least 60% of the lenses I own are F mount, and the EF and E mount lenses I have could be adapted with AF with third party adapters. I didn’t need the fastest autofocus, or better video features. But that doesn’t mean that these other cameras aren’t better at those things, and when recommending a product it’s important to highlight what each thing does best. I don’t regret buying this camera, and if you bought a camera that isn’t as good as some other one with a specific feature, you can still be happy with yours if it meets your needs. We are here for the love and passion of photography, why shoot the messengers who are trying to inform people of what each one is best at. It’s the companies jobs to make compelling products for people, not the reviewers to point at one and sell it for them

    I chose Nikon back at least to the F3. Maybe earlier. Because they didn't break. Plus, all dealers at the time indicated the glass was the best after the Germans. Today I find the situation the same. In general, Nikons don't break. And they last much longer than other brands.
    And I do have issues with Nikon. The Z lenses as sharp as they are have serious color issues for me. Constant frustration. And hate the way the Zs operate. Most times I just reach for a D850 due to faster, easier operation.
    I wish other brands were more reliable and had better lenses. Love my Canon 5Ds and now Mirrorless looks for video under mixed lighting. But, they don't have that magic Nikon color in general. And they fall apart quicker than Nikon. About 1/3 the life. Sony in my experience fall apart out of the box. In addition to the less than favorable color, combined with low durability rule them out for me.
    Other brands of recent vintage have not been beaten to death by me so cannot comment. I will say, that when am out with combat troops all I see is Nikon D850s.
    As for Fanboys, not one. However, at one trade event a few years ago, Canon was passing out cameras to play with, ( Nikon would not let you touch anything ), had Snoopys and other costumed people offering you beer, and had a "trade girl" give me a lap dance. I became a fan boy! Bought my first Canon mirrorless right there.

    I came to Nikon by chance and initially had a Pentax K 10 D, which noised like an oriental carpet from ISO 500 onwards. The D 700 was available at a reasonable price in the local electronics store in 2009 and I snapped it up. I have now arrived at the Z 6 III. And I don't really care who likes the camera and who takes photos with which other brand. I don't judge anyone if they take photos with Sony or Canon or or or.

    Nikon shooter here. Nikon drove me crazy with the Z6 Z6II series. They left me for a long time with no upgrade path to mirrorless. I needed fast, accurate AF because I photograph fast moving pets. So, because I was heavily invested in Nikon everything I continued to use their DSLR's. They kept working beautifully 😂, So, they finally delivered cameras with good AF that could keep up. Happy now. That said, I was tempted to switch because I thought mirrorless had a lot of advantages and wanted to take advantage of that. Turns out, none of this makes much difference. Mirrorless just makes it a little easier to get the photos. Thats nice and important, but my customers cant tell the difference 😂.

      @Uninfluenceable Месяц назад +2

      as someone who's used Sony quite extensively, 3rd party ain't all that it's cracked up to be. What makes mirrorless so superiors to DSLR's is the insane autofocus/tracking. Put a Sigma lens on an A7 and all of the sudden it focuses like sh!t when it comes to keeping up with fast moving subjects. Why do you think people still by G-Master's if Sigma has equal (if not superiors) sharpness? There is no replacement for native AF performance, unless you're shooting still-life or product photography, and if that's the case, you should just use manual focus anyways.

    • @gregdarroch1946
      @gregdarroch1946 Месяц назад +1

      @ Perhaps Tamron or Sigma can’t make a lens that will autofocus as well as the Canon one, but I would still like the option to buy from 3rd party manufacturers if they can make a decent alternative. I would of course trust Tony and Chelsea to review those 3rd party lenses before I would commit. Of course it is pure speculation to say that 3rd party lenses couldn’t compete with Canon ones. If that turns out to be the case, people won’t buy them if they become available. I bought my Canon camera before they decided on the 3rd party ban. I think it is reasonable to be annoyed with their decision, and I’m not alone in this. Of course if I had unlimited money I wouldn’t care, but I don’t have access to unlimited funds.

    M4/3 people also have it against you, but our hate is half the size, we are very stable, and slowly disappearing. Edit: I think most of people’s hatred is understood from the perspective that they spend years, sometimes a decade, with a camera, so they learn workarounds and advantages that may not be evident on a purely technical, and limited review, so when they see a reviewer miss it, it feels like the reviewer is lying.

      But this is just the classical fanboyism pattern: "because the reviewer doesn't recognize how brilliant my camera / my brand is, the review must be limited then" 😉
      If "fanboyism" is too harsh, then let's name it "strong bias". Like everywhere else, whenever you got used to something for a long time, e.g. your car brand, or even your spouse. After a long time, you assume, the way it is, is the way things have to be. Other car brands (e.g. when renting one on vacation) feel quirky and 'wrong' immediately. Even though they aren't, but they don't match (yet) what you are simply used to 🙂

    • @dasaen
      @dasaen Месяц назад +1

      @ It can be. I meant limited more in the realistic sense, because they have to make a video in a certain time, they can test for example a lens, but not a lens at different distances of focusing, and different light situations, or camera focusing with different subject types, at different speeds and different light, or explain why you won’t take some combos at some speed of tracking and panning. Reviews can’t be really as unlimited in scope as real use, so an experienced user will always know more.. What fanboys lack is the perspective that the review is not for them. Making in depth reviews of a system with all the lenses, prices and use cases, is just out of the economical interest of any youtuber.

    I'm just a hobbyist and I looked into a ton of information about the Sony, Canon, and Nikon options. I also considered Fuji and Panasonic for a time. When I finally chose a new camera, my first non-point-and-shoot, I grabbed the Z6 III on sale with the 24-70 f4 lens. I'm still experimenting with it, but it is a nice camera so far. I was heavily leaning toward the equivalent Canon R series and looked back at the Sony A7 IV. I liked the Sony for the resolution advantage, which would be more accommodating for cropping in to compensate if I don't frame the photo perfectly, and the Canon for the ergonomics and the way the menus function.
    Ultimately the partially stacked sensor on the Z6III was a huge boon for the rolling shutter reduction for high-resolution video the specific video shooting resolution options and the high bit depth options in the camera. I still think the Video quality can be better for Nikon overall and the Eye, animal, etc focus is still being improved however I had no reservations about purchasing the Z6III because the focus was much more acceptable. I appreciate your opinions and reviews.

However, I, as a shooter of both Sony and Leica (and several other systems) would really, really like some solid evidence one way or another comparing, say, the current Leica 50mm Apo-Summicron-M to, say, a Sony 50mm GM or a Canon 50mm RF L...or even, maybe, the Canon 50mm CN-R T1.2, both of which cost about half the cost of the Apo-Summicron-M.

Yeah so Nikon’s doing better now financially but their mirrorless offerings do have hitches in their AF performance compared to Sony and Canon. Imo, Nikon cameras still have the best ergonomics, best color, best image quality, best LENSES (did we forget about optics??). If I *need* to get a shot, however, I’m still reaching for my D4S, which just *works* without all these menus and stuff. All that to say, I think when you put out videos titles like THIS NEW NIKON AF SUCKS!!! to appease the RUclips gods (which I understand), I feel that the people who have invested a lot of money in Nikon feel hard-done by that, and feel you’re only pushing them out of business (you’re not), which will lead to less competition and less innovation.

    What you're saying, that you don't wanna hear you made a mistake, that you're looking for other saying you made a good choice, that's confirmation bias.

    Here is my frustration! 😂 I think you guys are great and make honest and thought out reviews. It all makes sense to me. My issue is just with the average camera consumer choosing their camera system based not on technical merits and an understanding of lens sharpness, camera tech, etc… but solely because an influencer or someone else they know or follow has that system. Unfortunately it seems canon owns that influential space. Props to them cause they worked for it! But I’d wish people were more informed about their decision. Rather than just trying to be an exact copy of someone else.
    I have seen so many people who know next to nothing about their camera and surprise it is a canon. So I just wish people weren’t just mimicking but stepping into the space with their own educated choices.
    (Not saying alll canon users arent educated and making informed decisions! Just that a good number of people starting photography might be tempted to just follow)

    I would say it's not about Fanboys, it's more individual to individuals who can't take criticism. I'm personally love using Nikon, and I'm a big Nikon fan, but I know Nikon is just behind Canon and Sony in terms of autofocus capabilities. I'm perfectly fine with the criticism. Every brand has some better features capabilities than the others.. I used all three brands, but I loved using Nikon. Nikon is improving every day, and I appreciate all other brands coming up with better technology for more competition..❤🎉🎉happy shooting.📷

    I think its less about "defending" a brand and more about pointing out people who will never say anything critical about other brands. Example, the hype of the R1 and people pointing out low resolution as a negative prior to its release. Now its released and apparently 24mpx is "perfect" from the pundits point of view

    Even though my first serious camera was a Nikon F, I've used them all at one time or another. 6x9 all the way to 110. Looking at my pictures, I can't remember what camera I was using. When I travel, I always carry a camera to record my adventures. If you understand the basics of photography, the camera really doesn't matter that much. It's the subject that matters.

    The only thing i will say to almost any camera reviewer. They start with the lens is important. But when recommending any body they will almost always ingore the lens lineup. Altough Tony recently said, i want the nikon because of the 600 TC lens. I currently don't like reviews of any camera because everybody is looking at tiny details which don't really matter. They can make life easier. But compared to 10 (and i dare to say 30) years ago. It's so easy to make a good picture (from a camera point of view).

    I have been a Nikon fangirl since 1978 when I bought the FE. After that, FE2, F601 (we didn't came along), F90 and F100. Now I have the D500.
