Hey so I realized the reason my viewfinder looked poopy is because my jpeg settings had reduced clarity and sharpness, which made the viewfinder look sort of out of focus. My diopter setting was fine, it was just the jpeg custom settings that threw me off. K THANKS BYE
Yeah maybe try realizing that before you talk recklessly about the gear.
Also, you can create your own profiles in NX studio and export them to the camera.
Wow!! I have to try this
I open RUclips. I know why I opened it and what video I’m looking for. Then I see Zach posted. Here I am.
Loved this style of video man! Great stuff!
If you are feeling viewfinder preview is soft, try adjusting the diopter.
check pinned comment
Nikon Picture Control and NikonPC site will open a world of film sims.
heck yeah I'm gonna check that out
Which give you more control of the camera than Fuji.
Recently discovered your videos and have been really enjoying your work! As a Mississippi photographer, it's really cool to see great camera content coming out of the south!
Nike picture control editor lets you do the custom profiles and load them into the camera via the sd card
*Nikon…but you get the drift I’m sure
You can definitely adjust tone curves with the Nikon Picture Control Utility. Don’t think you can add grain though.
Oh my gosh the Leslie Knope portrait hanging above the stairs is the shit.
I absolutely love my Zf, it has become my walk around camera.
Ah man. Congrats on your baby boy, that's/he's beautiful. Hope you're all doing well. (Love the vid)
Nikon always listens to feedback brother.
good to know brother
Love this style/series 🤘🤘
Did you adjust the diopter? Maybe why the evf wasn’t sharp
check pinned comment
How did the battery go?
This is quite interesting! As a fellow Photographer I have always gone for either the full on camera with RAW files + editing to get photos I care about and my phone for just documenting life, but smartphones are NEVER as good as a camera.
But the idea of having a small, light camera to carry arround and take JPEGs just great photos directly out of your camera is AMAZING by doing this video you have given me a new way of living life without editing as much. (Which I really do not enjoy, I enjoy taking photos and the results after the editing but the editing part itself I really don't like.)
Congratulations ... 4 your Boy ...
If they offered cool jpegs would your really use them or would you still shoot RAW and edit yourself. I hear plenty of people saying they want these cool joegs but then they mostly are proponents of shooting RAW.
0:18 why is Leslie knope on your wall? 😆🤣🤣💀
The one thing I’ve noticed is that the viewfinder is too bright in low light. lol. Photos look overexposed in the viewfinder. Unless I need to change something in the setting
Nice video. Your tennis shoe commercial experiment was quite good. Great pictures. Your teeth were really white in the short black and white video of you driving the car. 😶Hmmmm...😂
As always, keep up the good work and keep'em flying...
from the little red planet...
👽👽👽👽👽
Panasonic will release soon a new camera, imagine S5II but retro Leica style :) and Real Time LUT support... For me it is the end of the game - retro, AF, full frame and real film or whatever you want simulations.
Canon better hear all of this and release a digital P rangefinder-ish camera. Good stuff per usual! Welcome to dadhood!
Picture controls (profiles) are readily available for download & customization for Nikon DSLRs and mirrorless. Google is your friend.
More in the day of the life stuff! Plus, what's your urgh with the Xt3.. I know... Why not make a day in the life of XT3!? Smashing it broski!
That’s actually a great idea!
I have been wanting to switch back to Nikon from when I left to go to Sony for better video but they just are not quite there yet. Soon.
The viewfinder is fine but when using b&w preview the sharpness is awful and makes it look mushy. Switch to standard and it is sharp again. It’s pretty annoying.
Yeah it needs work
Love that you're listening to whatuprg! 🔥
You didn't get the SmallRig grip to go with that???? Man!!!
perfect dad cam
No deer. Home safe. And like the day-in-the life style. 😂
It's not as intuitive, but you can make custom JPEG profiles in the Nikon Picture Control Editor - no grain simulation or anything, but custom curves are supported.
Agree you can do a lot there and of you ad black and white profiles to the ZF they are available when the BW Switch is used
I’ll check that out, thank ya
Comparing the Nikon Zf against an XT3? A much better comparison would be the XT5!
what was this video filmed with?
iPhone 3G
@@ZachMayfield disappointing, really thought you would showcase the prores 422 capability of the iphone 3gs
Yeah I’m pretty peeved with it honestly, I’ll probably rock my fx30 next time just to be safe!
😮
But there are plenty adjustments in each tone setting!!!!
Jpgs ROCK!!!
24. (mpx)
if nikon figures out their menu they'll be unstoppable
You ready to feel the power of the z8?
Any new Fuji Juice shenanigans?
Very low on the juice lately but I’m definitely thirsty
@@ZachMayfield hopefully you can get some refills on Fuji juice 🧃
Nick picking a bit man, you ac upload your own styles/recipes and the menu is not that bad, you just have to get used to it, I find Sony's really terrible, but that's because I don't use that camera, other than that, awesome video and I love my ZF :)
Regarding the EVF, there is a little wheel next to it that you can use to adjust the sharpness according to your sigh :)
Me I'm 100% satisfied (w tha zf)
Just get the Ricoh GR IIIx HDF and dokument the Kid groving up... when hes old enogh you give him the camera to start his own photo journey ;)
i really should try out that cam! thanks for the rec
@@ZachMayfield If the new version is just half as good as the "old" one then its fantastic :)
Im looking for a photo camera for my 5 year old son right now.. and im thinking R50 :P but people tell me im crazy
I just wanted you to know I made it home safe 😢
Making me want to bail on my Fuji over. If you make me do that, you need to at least come up with another hat.
What about tiny hats for shutter buttons?
@@ZachMayfield take my money
I will never have Squarespace cos I will NEVER sell anything. 😅
You feel confident to post a video without knowing basics of a camera. Very credible. 😂
The goal was to take the viewer along the process of figuring out the camera, instead of me pretending to know everything about it.
nikon Zf and lenses the size of a truck
Literally no one is talking about the EVF being "not sharp" except you, the text on EVF is not indication that your diopter is correct. You should adjust your diopter and play around with it before making a conclusion. Worse case scenario is your copy is defective, but I doubt that's the case.
I spent plenty of time adjusting my diopter, maybe I’m just going blind lol
@@ZachMayfield lol I hope not. I think you should contact Nikon or try different copy to see if yours have a problem.
I figured out the issue and posted it in a pinned comment! Turns out it was my jpeg settings with reduced clarity and sharpness. 🙃
@@ZachMayfield glad it's not the camera nor your eyes
I’m a Nikon analog fanboy, and a Fuji user, and the B&W JPEGs looks good, but the colors are horrendous. Very bland looking, no style.
Also, I think the FF hype is overrated. You get a tad more bokeh, but people would say that they would flip their X-T2 towards a Zf just for that, and I think that’s too bad.
To be fair, that’s also why I’m now shooting film. Nikon made the best SLRs, the best DSLRs, but nowadays it’s just meh. As every camera anyway.
you're a prime example of not needing to fanboy over one brand, happy shootin' mate
@@ZachMayfield Fanboying over a brand is not great for sure!
Although I do have my preference. I guess it’s the lens ecosystem as well.
Anyway, thank, you too!
