Nice video. I have one doubt custom setting menu - AF-C is set to release and AF-s is set to focus. Is it correct or need to change ?

The background music is loud and distracting. I could not watch the entire video.

Steven, i have the z50 and all the new Nikon z dx lenses and several ff z lenses. I bought the z30 hoping it’d serve as an even smaller edc and back up camera. But like others report, in bright daylight, even with the LCD turned up to maximum brightness, i just couldn’t see the image to compose on it. Have found any tricks for dealing with this? I sent it back but i still wish i could make it work.

6:49 power bank, recommended banks because I’ve had no luck

like from the "Nikon team", I hope to try this camera some day, too!

What about with back button focus : set to focus or release ?

Hi, my first camera is the Z5. To be honest, it is the camera I missed most (I've sold it). The images are stunning and Nikon colours are incredible.

I got a Z6III as a second body for my boudoir/portrait photography business. I just love the detail of the files on my Z7II and after a few shoots…. I might be getting two Z6III

I got the 180-600 for the solar eclipse and it's been amazing. It really stepped up my wildlife photography too. What's your setup for recording these videos?

I looked this up to review the Z5 but too much of the video refers to the Z30.........?

Z30 is my favorite travel camera

Steve I have the z5. I want to make it a second camera body. I can’t get the 6iii but wondering which you d recommend or prefer. The z6ii or 7ii

The only upgrade camera anybody NEEDS at the moment is the new P1024, 24 MP bridge camera with an upgraded optical zoom lens going to 4000mm. Let’s face it, 3000mm focal length is getting a bit long in the tooth for these current daze. Cheers

Try the Z6 iii for a week, then I dare you to go back to the Z5. I bought a Z5 3 years and am sooooo glad I didn't buy a Z6 or Z6 ii, instead; because it was easy to justify the Z6 iii purchase. Be prepared to buy a CFexpress memory card for RAW and video files. The V60 UHS-II SD memory cards from the Z5 seem to work okay for saving the JPEGs, so far. If you have a cage for your Z5, you'll need to replace it. Keep your video files to less than 4 GB, because there is an artificial restriction on uploading them that seems to have carried over from a file sizing when saving videos to memory cards of 32GB or less capacity. Hope that upload restriction is lifted with the first firmware update.

Seriously did you just compare Z6II Vs Z5 or Z30? stay off crack dude.

I have the Zf. I haven't considered the Z6iii because it doesn't have Bird detection so I will continue to just use the Z9 for wildlife and the Zf for events and street and travel. The Z6iii also has the wretched flippy screen. Pre-capture would be nice if it were in RAW like every other brand, but it is only jpeg with Nikon (c'mon Nikon!). I tried to use the Zf for my wide angle lens second camera at a bicycle race this morning and it failed miserably. The Z6iii would have worked better for tracking bikes racing past, but I could have just swapped lenses on the Z9. I sold my D750 recently so had to give my battery charger away with it so now I have to buy a new one. Be aware that the Zf, Z6iii and all future cameras will not come with a battery charger ( European regulations prohibit it). Charging the Zf with USB only has been a royal pain for the past week. I have seen a rumor that the Z5ii is next.

How do you 'trade in' the z5 for the z6?

I know a few people who have returned their Z6iii. If you want to use it for video, sure get it. What about the Z8? That’s the best of both worlds. You can pickup a camera and test it for a week, then get a refund if you don’t like it.

Have had my Z6III for about two weeks (coming from a Z6II) and am absolutely loving it so far! 😎📷

I have the z5 and two z6IIs, I see no need for the z6III but, If there is a boost in the af system of the upcoming z5II, itll be surely my new upgrade.

Why wouldn't you buy a Nikon Z72 which has far better low performance far better image quality far better dynamic range and only slightly less frames per second I don't know why everyone is banging on about a camera that is only 24 megapixels and is $1000 dear then they said Z72 which is a far better camera

2024年6月にＺ30を購入し,試している最中です。Nikon Transfer 2を使ってパソコンにデータ転送していますが、初期からずっとエラーが出続けています。「パソコンとの接続が切断されました」今日もRAWデータを700枚ほど何回もトライしましたがその都度エラーが出ましたので、カスタマーセンターに電話で相談しました。相談員の勧めるあらゆる対処方法を試してみましたが、解決しませんでした。カードリーダーからはエラーがでません。でも本当は対処法を知りたいのではなく、エラーの出ないZ30+NikonTransfer2が欲しいのです。こんな不安定な製品は使う気にならず、返品を要求しました。しかし、出来ないの一点張りでした。これまでずっとキヤノンを使い続けてきて、こんなエラーは一度もありませんでした。さらに自分たちの未熟な技術にもかかわらず、その責任をユーザーに押し付ける態度は驚くばかりです。やむなく今日修理を依頼しました。行きの輸送料金も有料だそうです。カスタマーセンターの心のない「申し訳ございません」には飽き飽きしました。電話代にいくら使ったことか...。皆様ニコン製品を買うときはご注意ください。今後私自身ニコン製品を買うつもりはありません

Thanks about showing examples on a Z30 with a 12-28mm lens! I use the same equipments and I am happy with this lens investment!

Very useful real world info. Until I purchased the 180-600, I never owned any focal length above 300mm. This really expanded my photographic horizons.

"Protactic BP 450 AW II which is such a catchy name...." Love your subdued British sense of humor......

In over 30 years of using Macs, 1 have only lost 3 hard drives due to drive failure. Since the beginning I have always had multiple backups so I never lost any files. In my current setup, all my photos and editing software are on an external SSD drive independent of the internal operating system drive, along with an identical external SSD drive to back up on a set schedule using Carbon Copy Cloner software. Additionally, i send a backup to my iCloud daily and an additional weekly backup to an external HD which I copy and bring to my office for offsite storage. This might all sound too paranoid to some but you won't know what a catastrophe this could be until it happens to you. Another useful video and lesson.

Viewed this with my partner who is a beginner and has been confused with file formats - very useful! Thanks!

Although I've been shooting with Nikons since 1980, I've never had any real use for focal lengths over 300mm. When this lens was introduced, I started to think that I could expand my photo subject universe into areas like aviation, some wildlife, equestrian, and auto racing. For a lens this capable, the price was very affordable and I decided to get one. Wow! Love this lens and am so glad I got it. Performs beautifully with my Z9. The short throw zoom ring is one of its best features. For a non-professional who is initially exploring this type of ultra-long zoom it is the perfect choice. Hope you enjoy yours!

I just bough my z30 and happy to use it so sharp especially for video even in photo. Actually i am usingmine for my glider even if doesn't hae a body stabilization it is so good for glide. I never had a second thought when i saw it i wanted it already compare to the z50 in my own opinion only.

What do you think that 100 to 400 can replace this lens.

Ohh yes someone is is using the way I want to use although I haven't purchased it yet

nice!

I love this lens, it is especially great for sports and wildlife. Why spend thousands of dollars for a 400 Z 2.8?

Hi im an urban photographer, im planning to switch nikon. Would you suggest Z5+great lens or Z7ii+average lens.

Excellent video, exactly what I was looking for. Greetings from Brazil.

What is your fouse setting my fouse get stuck

Since this video, you can now edit locally in Lightroom and not cloud base.

If you're tech savvy enough you can build your own NAS using TrueNAS.

I would suggest a NAS drive setup, if you get one will more than one drive, you can have drive redundancy and it can automatically backup to backblaze. As mentioned below, follow the 3-21 principle, 2 physical copies and 1 in the cloud, or stored at another location.

Remember that Online storage is not backup if your files on your computer gets currupted or other file crypting virus. It also destroys the files to the cloud if it is connected to the computer. Use 2 onsite backups at home and 1 offsite. It is important to save files in places that is only connected to the computer when backups are copied. I have seen too many times people whos dropbox or onedrive "backup" failed.

I've had 3 WD drives all fail recently including a Time Machine drive. Have been advised by a recovery service to use Toshiba drives. HDD.s are easier to recover than a failed SDD.

Sounds good 👍

I bought this lens new a few weeks ago. I see that the edges of the front glass are not sealed, there is a considerable gap between the edges of the front glass and the plastic that covers those edges. I'm afraid it affects the weather sealing. Anyone having the same problem?

Very good video, lots of great tips Unfortunately, Adobe seems to constantly change things. For instance, about 7:18 you demonstrate Alignment Overlay CMD+OPT+O. I never know you could do this, so I tried it, and of course, it doesn't work. I'm using Mac with Lightroom classic, 13.2 Release. Please let me know what it's changed to

If I want to Rack focus or pull focus back and forth was setting should I use? Thank you.

Have you noticed the vignetting on the photos with large gray sky areas? I was wondering what lens you were using on those photos.

Liking the audio Steven, doesn't seem like you have a LAV mic also.... Boom mic? I always shoot raw for easier post processing myself. But for Timelapse's, really need to use uncompressed RAW, otherwise there's issues with exposure and timing on the D850.

I have found that people for the most part need 2 backpacks, one that is around 20L and one that is around 35L. My main 2 camera backpacks are a Pacsafe Camsafe V17 and the Wandrd Prvke 35L. I can highly recommend both (although I did modify the prvke to remove some Velcro, and added Molle so I could have a second water bottle holder). I do have a third which is not a camera backpack… it’s a hiking backpack from Osprey (stratos 34). It’s great because the sleeping bag compartment fits a 100-400 in its case. Basically perfect for hiking with a trinity of zooms and all the stuff you need for hiking.
