I just received your video. I've had my Z6 iii for a few days, replacing my Z5 of 3 years or so. Every characteristic or improvement, so far, is better than I expected, after setting my expectations by pouring over the online reviews. I wish it had the Z8/Z9 monitor mount, but I will survive. I wish it would allow upload of files greater than 4GB that can too-easily be created at 240fps, but I will survive until that limitation is addressed in a firmware update. I am dismayed by the technologists versus the fanboys fighting over the Dynamic Range issue. Personally, I am glad that I was made aware that there is around 1 stop less dynamic range at base ISO than in my Z5 ... I would rather adjust my shooting style before pressing the shutter release than be disappointed with the files at the computer; so it's not an issue for me. Oh yes, and I need to by a new cage because the camera grew in size.
concerning the overblown focus on the minimal decrease in dynamic range compared to the Z6 I/II, you must wonder whether people are just talking about it for clickbait or even worse believing they can't capture good imagery with 1/2 stop less dynamic range.
@@ChristopherDobey Sure, but I recall seeing a review that characterized it as closer to 1.5g stops worse than the Z5. Maybe the Z6i and ii were worse than the Z5.
Depending on the acquisition agreement and the switch to a 16-bit sensor, it would be awesome to see a 16-bit REDCODE RAW capable Z9 II / Z8 II. As far as ProRes RAW capping at 30p instead of 60p, perhaps it comes down to processor overhead issue or to steer users in the direction of N-RAW. Until DaVinci Resolve supports ProRes RAW, there will be a lot of videographers using N-RAW.

Thank you Christopher
you're welcome!
Thank you for the video. May I ask, if there is a black out in the evf, when using the electronic shutter? Thanks in advance!
Electronic Shutter and Silent Mode have EVF/LCD blackout.
N-raw will be obsolete soon as Nikon will look into Red Raw. 60fps Prores Raw would have made this camera a good purchase for filmmaking.

@@ChristopherDobeyThe 30fps cap comes down to the fact that ProRes RAW requires so much bandwidth.
