Should have calculated volume, cubic inch!

CraZwade ❤

Next video. Which lens smells the best after you had it deep fried.

I dream of Z mount 10-20mm, btw is Z8 frame grid separated by 16 sections? Thank you in advance 🙏

I reckon you should keep this going. Where do you think you would put the 28-400 and 35 1.4?

Please update this by volume. And since you have to do it anyway: Go metric. :) … and dont skip weight.

I solved these problems by not taking photos anymore. 📷

I like my 24-70 f/4, but if 1 year ago (when I bought Z6II Kit with this lens) I had my actually knowledge and experience, I in 100% spend ~300$ more, and buy Z6II with 24-120 f/4. For concerts, 24-70 f/4 is too short.

Good straight forward video Zach. I think SheWade was totally debunked on the stairs. 🤣 Bottom line is haters will hate, poor photographers will blame everything but themself and Nikon is still rolling out good products. That is all, over and out. -Jim

People need to learn how to take good pictures in the first place rather than taking bad pictures and expecting the camera to compensate.

King.

You'll love it bro the 50 and 85 are my fAvs

Can it survive when a 4 year old puts peanut butter and jelly on it, and gnaws at it for 25 minutes?

BOOM! Thank you! All these "experts" are out here just nit picking, pixel peeping and over analyzing... and they always seem to do over do these inaccurate "tests" with Nikon gear.

Finally a great video showing real world results. Thank you.

So sad that in order to shoot outside with the Nikon Z6iii you have to use a flash in order to save the shadow recovery. Very bad dynamic range.

Nice details.what lens are u. Using with

@9:31, The flickering observed on the Z6 III's video is not the typical random variation of noise, what you accurately termed "grain dance". The Z6 III's flicker is actually the result of random variations of the overall brightness of each frame, which based on my technical analysis is caused by subtle black-level differences between frames. This can be observed on Resolve's scopes well before it becomes perceptible in the image noise, which further demonstrates it's not a function of noise. It becomes noticeable starting at +2EV in N-Log, and not because the noise itself is increased but because the overall luminance is increased with the noise, and that increase reveals the variation in brightness that's present in all frames. I demonstrated this in my Z6 III vs Z8 N-RAW comparison video - even at Z8's extreme worst in noise (+5EV N-Log exposure adjustment), the Z8 does not exhibit the flicker inherent to the Z6 III at equal or lower noise levels.

Awesome vid! All non-issues brought up by spec sheet readers, not photographers.

Every image sensor on the market has unique performance characteristics. One of those characteristics is dynamic range. This can be measured by evaluating shadow noise alone, since most modern sensors have similar relative saturation levels, which means dynamic range is distinguished by how many stops below 18% gray each sensor can distinguish detail distinct from noise. Whether or not a particular sensor's dynamic range performance is material to a purchase decision is naturally for each prospective buyer to decide for themselves. But the solution to sensors having different dynamic range performance isn't to avoid measuring it or presenting those measurements, or to presume a given sensor's range is sufficient for everyone. Of course the solution also isn't the other extreme - presenting every difference in measurement as catastrophic. In my view, the best solution is to objectively present the measurement, give it appropriate context so that everyone understands its relative significance, and then step back and let each viewer decide for themselves.

The flickering seems to be a caused by a swapping back and forth between red and green as the predominant hue in the grain. Since Red and Green have different luminance values, it appears as unstable brightness, or flickering. However it’s an issue that’s copy dependent, some with multiple copies see one of their Z6IIIs has it worse or better than others. Look up Robert May and testcams if you’re interested in more… but I imagine it’s not super important for what you do.

The modeling on the stairs...omg, dead, lol. Honestly, the Z6III is a great camera...I think people are 'attempting' to slam it because it is a great camera. I love mine.

The z6iv better go out & take the shot on my behalf, otherwise I'm not buying it 😂

Does nobody notice that something is wrong? One group has poor results, so they return the camera. The other group says, yes, there are a few minor problems, but that's not relevant in practice. I have also tested the camera and I have seen clear noise. So clearly that I did not accept it. This cannot be explained by the fact that one group thinks the others are idiots who have no idea. I think there is a problem that only some of the cameras have, possibly in conjunction with selected lenses, e.g. 14-30. Maybe a series dispersion, different production lines, different supplier parts, different firmware... There must be something that makes the cameras different.

OMG! That was entertaining! The stairs shoot, you should be the model and not the photographer/videographer, lol! Hopefully this video will be seen by folks that are hung up on this DR and video noise issue. There is a RAW section in the "Edit" page that provides more control over RAW footage, another portion of Resolve to learn but, those that shoot and edit RAW will know about that, the NLog portion did a good job with the noise clean up that most people would be fine with. Thanks for putting this together so folks have an idea what is possible.

Z6III has litterally the same DR/Noise profile like the z9 with just different base isos, 100 and 800 The only difference is that the z6III has 4 times slower readout that is kinda usable but not as good as z9s 3.8 ms readout

how does the sensor compare to an APSC?

ZWade is, ZMan! Thanks for this. Appreciate your time and efforts.

There's a lot of fuss over nothing. Cameras have advanced so much that people must scrutinize intensely to find any flaws. Additionally, I believe UA-camrs are stirring up their followers regarding the Z6III and its dynamic range. It's mostly just a trend people are jumping on. For the camera to fail, one would really have to mess up the exposure badly.

ZWade ZEE Wade! Thank You for your comments on the person under the overpass; It is sad the state of affairs in this Country, and I will leave it at that! Good stuff here, and I love the shots with shadows, one of my favorite things to capture! Looks like the 24 is a solid lens. LOVE the grasshopper shots! 😃 I’m either going with the 20, or maybe the 24, or quite possibly the AF-s 20mm f/1.8, and adapt it to the 7? Stay cool! 👍

ZWade The Zee Wade. @07:26. Wait, you hate noise but then you add a little bit? Huh? 🤔😆 Kidding kidding… Really great stuff here, and I think You illustrated it well. I really don't ‘see’ a problem? My concerns would be with some of the minor issues I’ve heard, regarding the camera locking up, and the noisy operation, and strap lug interfering with card door, etc? Nikon makes cameras, and they should be practically perfect, and rock solid, no excuses. But it would seem that people are going to pick the camera apart, and “look” for issues, even if they aren’t there? Good stuff here. Stay cool! {.I was up in my attic Yesterday, and despite the much needed rain we received, I was still sweaty as heck, when I came back down. Tracking down a minor leak. 😯 }

Those poses on the stairs...... 👍

Thanks for testing it, ZWade!

The form factor still bugs me on those cameras. So I mean Z5, Z6 and Z7. You have to add at least a L bracket to give it a more substantial grip. Same goes for the Fujifilm cameras as the xt3 and xt5. It is just to small. Or my hands are too big😅

Yeah! I was wondering what you were gonna give the 24-120F4, which is my latest purchase and won't come off my Z72. Took it to Europe (Amazing travel lens) and the image quality, zoom or no zoom, was absolutely top notch! I couldn't agree more with your assessment.....very happy!😉😉 I also have the 40 f2! So I will be definitely getting the 50mm 1.8!

I took three breaks in mowing the front yard today and finally finished. Now I have to edge. So when cooling down I started playing with different cameras and adapters again and realize that I love EVF more than the LCD. Using a manual focusing lens where You have to magnify to get the focus just right. 75% accuracy. Then found out the ND2 filter I was using had hair and dust which ruined another 25% of the photos. Funny thing is that in San Antonio, Texas area that I am living, we haven't reached 100 degrees Fahrenheit this year. I guess it is because we are getting older and just can't deal with it like we could when we were younger. Loving your latest videos in debunking the Naysayers. Cheers!

No tie - I like it when you join us common people ... 🦘

Great video, thank you a lot for testing it 🙏❤

It seems like ppl don’t want to learn the basics of photography/videography and expect cameras to be completely forgiving to their lack of knowledge 🤷🏽. I have botched shots throughout the years and I have never blamed any of the cameras that I was using at that moment 🤦🏽. I blamed myself for being careless or for rushing to get the shot. Another great video Z

The Northrups need to change their name to Boeing... just sayin'

Who's missing exposure over/under by more than 2 stops... It's hilarious

I enjoy the real world shoots.

Very wise about DR - Can't you spot meter more than one spot instead of going matrix ? ...🦘

I don’t really mind people *COUGH* Northrup *COUGH* testing a camera to breaking point regarding DR. But then when he says the Z6 III is not good for general photography, while simultaneously trying to sell a Canon RP, which is far worse for DR, and saying that’s great for general photography, or not saying the R6 II is horrendous when using electronic shutter, or acknowledging it bakes noise reduction into the RAW files at lower ISOs, yeah then I sincerely doubt their objectivity. Really gotta do something about that cough. Maybe the pharmacy has some antitony in stock.

Omg I did not know what to expect when I clicked on this vid. Epic blast on the clowns testing the DR range lol I have the OG z6 and looking to upgrade and I start seeing these Vids pop up on the DR and I’m like oh shit. Great to see real world shit. Thank you.

I have a doubt ...do we need a macbook to edit 6k videos or can i do it in my iphone 15 pro max?

nobody shoots like that, no, but when there is super high contrast in the photos and you need to bring up those shadows, that's what you do, and if the quality of that is worse than the previous models, then I think it a valid reason to question that.

Somebody discovered the Z6iii has less DR, and the camera click-bait community couldn't help themselves (serious problem?). While it is newsworthy to report the DR degradation so consumers can make an informed choice, it really is up to each photographer to decide if this important to them or not. We just need the facts minus the hyperbole, so thanks ZWade for trying to dispel some of this. It would be great to see Nikon somehow minimize this with a firmware/settings update in the future.

What !

Metering has come a long way. I started with a handheld incident/reflective light meter. Then the cameras had built-in averaging meters (and some had spot meters for the experts). Then Center-weighted. Matrix-metering is quite good. As far as the dynamic range ... one has to ask, "Who is the Z6iii for?" Certainly, it is for Urban photographers who shoot when there is a lot of atmospheric haze, landscape photographers who shoot when there is a lot of fog, wedding photographers who shoot their outdoor scenes in the rain, and studio photographers who shoot through mesh. Just another entry in the "Who is it for" series.
