#Nikon #Z6 #Mirrorless
I cracked up after that cry followed by the "that's a Canon fanboy" comment 😂
that's the best thing ever 😂
@7:38 - For those who want quick access to the cries xD
The Northups? Please. I watched their Hasselblad review and they were defending the indefensible. That was a cringy review. If that's what passes for logic with those two....
ua-cam.com/video/zAMiR-3j8sw/v-deo.html
I cracked up when I saw the price for this "affordable" camera... yes I know he put affordable in "quotation" marks.
I laughed my ass off at that.
I'm a C-5 quadriplegic with limited arm and no hand function that relies completely on the touchscreen to take pictures so I'll be taking the upgrade to the Z6 from my Olympus system. It was brilliant to use in the store with all the functions usable right from the screen and I got one right away! I have wanted to go with Sony so bad and waited for so long but their touchscreens always sucked, not even a touch shutter function which I absolutely need. They still look like great cameras but in the smartphone age i don't know how hard it is to throw in a decent touchscreen on cameras you don't have to use it if you don't want to.
Have fun with the new cam. Hope you like it as much in the real world as you did in the store. That's awesome the technology is there for you to be able to use the touchscreen. Happy shooting!
Nick Rath hey! Me too!! I’m technically a C4 SCI, but I’m a functional C5. Rear-ended while at a red light. I’ve enjoyed using a Z6 with the wired remote shutter release to trigger by holding it in my mouth. Great hobby, and glad to see other tetraplegics shooting stuff 😬
My main system is still Sony e-mount, as I’ve got a TON of Zeiss and G-Master glass. It’s lame 😒 (hehe) that they haven’t yet integrated full touchscreen capabilities on A7/A9 yet. I mainly use an A7ii, because they make a great, tiny little shutter release that’s about 2” x 1” and super easy to hold with your mouth.
Reading through the comments I noticed that everybody who has actually gone ahead and bought a Z6 is very pleased with their purchase, whilst the majority of the negative comments come from those who don't own or havn't tried one. This is helping me with my decision.
Man, I miss these two guys.
I got mine in Tuesday and shoot primarily with a D4. The reviews here is spot on. I don't have any native lenses, and uses the adapter with all my lenses. I can say the focus is good not as fast as my D4 but it works. I'm happy with my purchase and glad I held off for a Nikon Mirrorless. I have way too much glass invested in Nikon to change over..
I know this review is old but how did the focusing improve with the latest firmware ?
Recently got a D4 and it feels great to shoot with. Not feeling like switching to mirrorless anytime soon.
@@ManchmalGaming Yeah, I shoot both and I can say they both do great for different jobs. I like about the mirrorless is that you can see all the exposure on the fly but I like my D4 for action and doing photo shoots. I did pick up a D30 for vlogging a couple of weeks ago. Check out my vlog and page for the raw behind the scenes. Shows me using the D4 and D6. D4 with strobes.

Again, watching on UA-cam because I can't afford one
Afnan Studio lucky for you then you won’t be disappointed with it
@@spud1252 haha is it really that bad? I'm still happy using d700
Afnan Studio, Agreed. Camera companies make money. Photographers make photographs with the equipment they have. The £250 or so extra I would have had to pay for the adaptor (which wont work with my excellent low element screw drive lenses) could have got me a super used 60mm F2.8 Nikkor macro lens.
same, though I'd want the z7. lol
Mmmh, the reason, why the Z6 focusses better than the Z7 might be due to the Z6s Pixels being bigger, and so the Phase-detect Pixels being bigger as well.
Absolutely spot on analysis. It's rare to see a comment on a youtube video that is written by an intelligent person. Kudos to you.
Makes sense
its better with the new update too
The guy at 8:27. The look of defeat when he overheard them. He must've realized he made the wrong camera purchase.
don't always pick a camera based on one aspect...
why are you the only photographer on UA-cam I heard saying this!
I'm probably just very wrong in that case
I don‘t think so. Like you said, it‘s not always the case.
@@KaiManWong Dont you mean very wong??? haaaaaaaa (kill me)
Kai W Not at all, you have a right to your opinion and your findings. At least unlike most fanboys in UA-cam - you actually get to try lots of different cameras, so you're qualified to judge from your own perspective what you feel is best.
...unless it has focus issues.
"for rectal use ONLY"
10/10 I need these stickers:D
I got mine on Amazon. There's like 500 stickers in a package, so I'm putting them on everything.
Depends! For me and for doing street photography I think the X-T3 is taking the number one spot!
it's not full frame - he is making a recommendation for full frame mirrorless
@@richardjacobson5236 Oh lol. You are right! I heard "Mirrorless" only. Got it! =)
only for street photography, ricoh GR is better than xt3
@@silverrayleigh6284 I own both and a beg to differ. Value for money GR might win - But I'd prefer shooting with my X-T3 a lot more.
kunto ... not if you want to shoot with a 35mm or a 50mm 😁
"For rectal use only"; can't wait to see those freshly taken sphincter photos straight from the Z6!
Best way to test "low light" shooting amirite?
That lens is widely used for colonoscopies.
New video, I see, I like, then I watch. Maybe one day I’ll be able to get a camera like that! Maybe when I start working in the summer.
got my z6 today super excited. it has already started putting a dent on sony and canon market in India. added along with D500.. time to retire d7000
“Its probably the same sensor, goddammit!”
That’s vintage Kai.
I'll freely admit I've hit analysis paralysis with all these damn cameras nowadays. I've been 'deciding' for like 4 years. To be fair though, I'm really dumb.
These older videos before 2.0 firmware release in May2019 sought to be redone or pulled down because the AF is completely different and now is a very suitable replacement for any action DSLR. I recently sold my D850 because it was getting so little use after getting the Z6 and the funds generated from that will add a Z7 to the kit.Low light focusing is now better than DSLRs and action and burst is as good or even faster than the D850. The Eye-AF works well but for a portrait photographer it is not needed but it seems to be popular with new camera owners. Based on handling, XQD reliability, ergonomics and menu, great EVF, build quality, focus peaking accuracy, AF- speed and accuracy, weather sealing, IBIS performance, color, low light high ISO IQ, video performance, connectivity, and access to S lenses I can't think of a better camera currently on the market for long term return on investment. The Panasonic S1 is well made with good weather sealing also but heavy and large with very expensive lenses but suffers from only having contrast AF
Hey Stan, Nikon Z6 o Nikon D850 ?
Z6 or 850 ?
@@mostafa1996mazyad I bought a Z7 originally because the country where I live now had Z7 imported but not yet at that time any Z6. I had high res in the D850 so really wanted the the faster and lower light capable Z6. The dealer I get my gear from was willing to trade the Z7 in for a Z6 when it became available. The manager threw in a 35mm 1.8 and 50 1.8 S lens to cover the difference in cost. I had the Z7 for 3 weeks and used it daily and got the first Z6 available in the city. The Z6 has been my primary camera for 2 years and love it. I sold the D850 because it just was not getting used. Occasionally an art director will insist on larger files in studio work so I still had the D800 but for all studio or field commercial shooting and all my personal shooting has been on the Z6 which I love for its reasonable file size, low light performance, and DR. Now that the Z7 2 is officially announced I am interested in adding the Z7 2 and finally selling all my F mount cameras and lenses. The S lenses are so good that I never use the F mount. The Z6 with 85 1.8 S actually delivers better images than the excellent D850 with even the best F lenses.The Z mount allows corner to corner resolving power that was just not possible with the small diameter F mount. That is the reason Z cameras consistently produce better images than the Sony cameras due to their small deeper flange on their mount. Canon and Panasonic have also gone with large diameter flanges but they have deeper flange distance than the Z mount so have a harder time matching the corner to corner performance of the much lower cost S lenses. So, to be fulling in the mirrorless camp with a large collection of excellent S lenses it is time to add a Z7 2 for higher pixel density for product and other studio clients. My paid work really fell off this year since Covid arrived so selling off the F lenses will cover it and a 58 0.95 with enough left over for the stellar 70-200 S 2.8, probably the best zoom every made
As a nikon shooter (D750, D600, D3400, V3, and V1), I feel the A73 is a better all around camera than the Z6/7. I feel so strongly about it that I plan to wait for the 2nd generation of the "Z" before I dive in. I also feel like Nikon should have bundled the adapter for free or at least $50.
How, because it can focus a little bit better, because in all the other domain like body ergo, weather sealing, viewfinder, rear screen, video etc the z6 is superior. As a Nikon D750 user which has retired my d800 to my bag 95% of the time, the z6 will be better to everything you have only to the d750, and I could say that with its full frame AF in some case better than the D750.
@@danielvilliers612 yes because it has better focusing, tracking, and as of today is still a better out the box video option. The comparisons to DSLR is moot as the claim was better all around mirrorless camera
@@purenupe1 Yep the autofocus is so bad thatprofessional sport photographers, I mean actual pros and not youtubers are using it on sport show like moto GP. facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=2393660583982224&set=pcb.450574808801789&type=3&theater&ifg=1

So here's something.. If you're stepping into a pro level system while mirrorless being regarded as the future of photography, would you go for the Sony A7[fill in the blank] or an older DSLR system while Nikon and Canon catch up? Invest in old, proven tech with Canon or Nikon? Or jump into Sony which already has a mature mirrorless system? The nature of photography requires some sort of brand loyalty in that it makes the most sense to invest in one system. At first i thought this was a great time to be shopping but the more i over think it, the more i see that it's a terrible time to make a large investment in photography gear. Ahh!! I want to like Nikon mirrorless but i can see its just not for me.. Need something reliable for fast action sports. Just like the A7 and A7II were not the best at anything, I'm expecting the same to be the case with the first Nikon and Canon mirrorless systems.
I agree. I personally would invest in the cheapest system that suits my needs atm. That for me is the A7iii for hybrid shooting. I do weddings and family shoots and some short films and it's been my work horse. For everyday walk around shooting I love the fuji system.
I Do think canon and nikon will catch up to the A7iii on their second release but I know Sony will put out something to stay in the lead
Just get what you like... every newish camera would do what you want
Same problem here. Looking to build up my own kit after years of using my former employer's Canon gear. Was all set on Sony until I saw the price of native FE mount lenses.
@@verselines One very important thing that many don't discuss about future proofing. Those big Canon and Nikon lens mount are going to provide in the long run some better lens. Already the Nikon S 35 f 1.8 and 24-70 F4 lens are providing some exceptional result in sharpness, aberration, vignette etc
Canon fanboy here.
That Nikon is a good camera. A really really good camera.
The Adobe DNG converter will process Z6 RAW images. It’s beta and will expire the end of the year. Presumably they will have updated Lightroom by then. But it works fine.
I have had the Z6 for five days now and have been using mostly manual focus lenses like Nikkor AI-S lenses. IBIS is superb on this camera, and with focus peaking through the EVF and the ability to quickly change between registered non-CPU glass suddenly this class of lenses has new life. Give it a try. Great for street and video. We don’t need auto-focus for everything 😉
Chris x Jordan is truly the greatest ship 13:30
I know we make it look easy, but keeping the fire alive is a lot of work.
@@thatjordandrake My only question is? Who usually pays for dinner or do you go Dutch?
Kai catches the eye. Incisive information together with fascinating approach! Love his vids.
i really like the z6... a very sensible choice indeed
Honestly I feel Nikon did good with this entry into mirrorless and it is a strong contender for the mirrorless market. The eos r just doesn’t make sense with the current market. However canon did come out with much better glass, which is the most important factor when considering a system in my opinion
Honestly Canon would have killed it if they didn't neuter the video portion of the camera. Insane crop on 4k is just not ok this day and age.
This is a brilliant review!! Informative, funny, entertaining and most importantly based on real world usage!! This is why I always enjoy watching reviews by Kai!!
This camera out shoots my D4 with frame rate and autofocus accuracy.
That rectal sticker killed me XD
That's me, from the block.. I guess?
You're beautiful ^^
@@cripplingdebt224 errr... *Typing beautiful definition* ... No
The native 24-70 f4 on the Z6 was a dream to shoot with during the launch event here in Brisbane. Although i really wanted to play with their new bokeh beast! (not available)
Excellent, fun and informative video, thank YOU as always. Reinforced my purchase decision, enjoying the Z6
When the Z7 didn’t focus on the Sony, “Maybe it just didn’t want to, makes sense” I lost it!!
😂😂😂
I love PJ. So happy to see him in a video again.
Thought you and Lok were the cutest couple on UA-cam 😂🤣😂
Specs wise the sony is superior, but as you said it is the photographer who makes the shot, and sony's grip and global user experience is not as comfortable as Nikon's and Canon's. So even if the Z6 is slightly inferior, it is more comfortable to use and therefore, can let the photographer produce better shots in a lot of cases. Great review tho
I have been using the Z6 for a week now and I think the Z6 is better than the a7iii.....comeon the camera is more than just the autofocus.
My favorite lens on the Z6 is the Voightlander 58mm f1.4....which is a manual lens.
Raahul Singh The best camera is the one that feels the most comfortable for you to use. No reviewer can tell people which camera is right for them. I like Kia because he knows that.
Yeah, but if you're paying for the latest tech, then why would you pay for a sub par AF? If you want to use a manual lens, go for it, but you're paying a lot for features not to use them. Get an older Nikon, the sensor will mostly be fine, and you dont seem to need the advancements in AF.
@@saaaaaadSub par AF, compared to what....a Sony a7iii? My colleague owns one and I have used it multiple time...even last Tuesday. The Nikon Z6 AF is not that far from the Sony a7iii AF....and in case of video the Z6 is better than the Sony.
Over all this camera is technically better than the Sony (and I had owned a A7riii for a few days last Feb)....Better IBIS, Better color contrast, Awesome EVF (way better than a7riii), better handling, similar low light performance, similar dynamic range, similar focus speed and a better collection of lenses to use on (don't focus on the Z lenses only)....like I said my favorite lens on this camera is the Voigtlander 58mm f1.4. I even can use the 50mm F1.8 AIS lens (Price $50) on this camera.
Also, AF is not the end game of todays cameras, look if you have to take sharp pictures (from portraits to Landscapes), you will not depend on AF only....you will end up using Manual Focus with image magnification and focus peaking....something that this camera does really good...
This camera needs to improve upon high speed action AF......but this camera is not a D5 or a D500 or D850....never was sold like one.
@@hitmanhart22 While I agree the difference in AF isn't huge, it is noticeable, and within a short time span (ive tried both). This becomes more pronounced the longer you use it, and specially in C-AF. Even in this video, within 1 day of shooting, there are AF struggles throughout. The Z6 is a good performer, but if you're not already invested in nikon glass, i dont think its as good. I agree that the grip/feel of the Z cameras, as well as the weather sealing, but thats it. Single card slot isnt a big issue, and battery life appears to be ok, but worse. AF is worse, and Sony has market leading eye AF. And no, if your camera is focussing correctly, you dont need manual focus adjustments. IBIS is better on the Nikon, but not by a big margin. The custom buttons are weirdly placed on the Z cameras, and there's less of them. While the menus are better, you have to use it more often one the nikon (even for simple things like switching on auto iso).
I actually find the Sony way easier to use with 4 dials on the body, 4 custom buttons and a personolisable menu (which i barely even use thanks to the custom buttons and dials).
Video appears better in terms of colour depth, but even in this video it appears to struggle to pick out the foreground object with the AF. I'll take more reliable AF any day.
The first picture I ever took was with a twin reflex Rollieflex 2.8 in 1956. It made great images. Any of you with skills can make great images with any of these recent cameras. The tech is mostly about sales. The important element is who is holding the camera.
I been using the Z6 a lot i really like it.
The Sony has a dedicated exposure compensation dial. That's a wonderful thing to have. You 're right about the white balance, Sony's pics always look a bit cold.
Just bought a used d610 and I'm already looking to sell it and pick up a z6. Would love that video functionality and i hate that I can't properly adapt vintage lenses on the f mount
The z6 is fantastic!
Laughs and cries in Canon 750D
Same here...
I know it would be a major pain in the arse, but it would be absolutely wonderful if you could add in every shot what it was filmed with... just for educational purposes. Maybe it is not all that interesting for photographers, but as an aspiring videographer I would love to see the differences different cameras capture. (And I am well aware, that in fact to make sense, you would need to add the settings and lenses and all that malarkey, but just the camera would be a nice start).
“That’s a canon fanboy over there.” OMEGA LUL
Great Stuff! Thank you Kai!
The real question is not Z6 or Z7, but rather Z6 or D850, since they are in the same price class. Is the Z6 good enough to pull the DSLR shooters to mirrorless?
tHaH4x0r their back will once they passed their 50s, believe me :D
I think you don`t have to be a Nikon user to get interested in the Z6 or Z7 because of the new lens mount you`ve to start with a complete new system no matter which brand your using so far.
I`m a Nikon user, so if I want to upgrade I would go for the Nikon D5 instead.
The 12:19 mark says it all.
I’ve always been a Canon guy, and I still am, but Nikon has always had better on body controls on their DSLRs
You 2 are hilarious AF! Awesome together. You are right Kai. I bet Nikon just programmed their AF algo to render all Sony cameras blurry.
Škoda, love when I see smth from Czech!
where in the uk is this?
So many new cameras. So many choices.
This is the right way of doing wildlife photography. I just hate people destroying the natural habitats of wild animals just to click their photos. (2f73)
Yo Kai. It'd be super dope if you started up a website and kept some lists of gear recommendations. Kinda like dpreviews list of recommendations based on use case or price range
Somehow feels great to see how the photography community support each other.. Kai, The Northrup duo, TCSTV.. Respect... #ourheroes
Great to see them back together ;)
Ты пользуешься Инстаграм ?
"affordable" nice joke, Kai.
As far as pro cameras go, it's actually cheap.
Another great vid Kai, keep it up...that being said, as a NIKON shooter for 20+ years, I wouldn’t touch a Z6 or Z7 even if you PAID me! Why?! Too compromised...plus...the D850 EXISTS!!!
I'll stick with my used D600. Full frame. 24MP, just like the Z6. Good ones on the used market for $600. I guess I'll have to live with that awful mirror that doesn't drain batteries and the 1000 shot battery life . And all that Nikon glass that doesn't need an adapter.
I'm still using a D300S and its half the MP, the photos it takes are still fantastic ! the only bad thing about my camera is its ISO and the fact its not full frame, but for macro that I do it's not really a problem, however, I must say next camera upgraded is a toss-up between the Z6 or the Sony a3, Now if only the Z to f mount was free it would be a easier choice to make .
That's the good stuff about mirroless systems. Make FF DSLR cheap again 👍👍
all I need in this life of mine is fujifilm x100f and I’m good to get on with it. great review as usual.
Sees title, immediately thinks of a Digital Rev days when Lok points at Kai and says ‘Nikon fanboy’!
is it any better than my D750? That's what I need to know. I couldn't really give a toss about the lack of a mirror..I have no beef with mirrors..it's the EVF I want to get my grubby hands on
what is your interest in the evf - so you can see picture profile effect before you shoot ?
@@lylestavast7652 exactly that..I don't see why we can't have one on a DSLR too, but I suppose the manufacturers think they might not sell mirrorless if they put that tech in "old" cameras
I'm ordering one of these for video. I will pair it with a Gh5s and an Atomos. I already have F mount glass that I speed boost with the GH system. I mainly want this for gimbal mounted AF. IMO this is the first Nikon camera with usable video capabilities. It won't replace my other cameras but hopefully, it can do that one job. BTW, watch out for those spearmint rhinos
Great video Kai! Do you have any information from Nikon about what is causing such a delay over here in the US with the shipping of the z6 cameras? They are back ordered everywhere. Thanks for your time.
PJB in any Kai video gets an instant like
Hey Kai, Tony Northrup stated in so many words that the AF in video on the Z6 is horrible. What is your opinion? Secondly, is the AF on the Z7 just as bad?
the tool behind the camera, or the tool behind the lens...?
Are you going for a Top Gear like style? If so you are killing it!
THAT SAID, I've had the Z6 for a few days and I love it for the price.
I gotta say, I would go with the Sonys now because there are new Infos about 2 incredible new sensors that would even kill medium format f they are 100%true
Sergeant Arschkeks if you’re in the market of buying a camera now rumors about future sensors are completely pointless. If you are not they are still completely pointless until they are available in a camera.
So you can have this mirrorless wonder with all its high tech, EVF, focus points that spread across the frame, with its new "Z" mount that will be able to take super fast lenses, that can do 4k video ( in whatever crop mode ). But the failure of this camera ( and Nikon should have known better ) it has only has ONE card slot
People who are looking for sports photography, it's better to go to the phase detection system.
The focus system is the old Sony A7 system.
From what I can tell I'm getting much faster AF speeds on the A7III with a Canon fit Sigma Contemporary and MC-11. Should AF be the basis for choice? I would think for wildlife photography it is.
I chatted with a Nikon photographer last week and although Dslr AF is still fast and smooth on native lenses tracking to point, Mirrorless focus lock changes the game as does forward tracking. So its a bit of a different shooting experience all together.
I think if your coming home with more usable shots in focus to begin with should be a good indication.
Loved your review of the 7dmkii so much I picked up a second hand copy. A7III up against that as comparison, its in a different league.
Firmware can change everything though. It did for the A7III and most likely will for Nikon. Thats why I think you cant judge these cameras too quick these days.
Did firmware improve the A73 AF
@@markshirley01 Yep. As did Sigma's firmware. I think its just standard practice these days to get the most out of new cameras. I mean I'd love to see these mirrorless cameras put to Kais race track test like the 7DMkii and D500 were.
You completely lost me at “just 2k”!? 2k is a lot of money. One can build a super computer for 2k now. This idea that a pro camera should be 4K plus is ridiculous! I’m hoping the Sony a7R3 and Fujifilm XT3 are changing that. Great video as always Kai 👍
??? look at real pro cameras..
and if you mean video camera, arri and red cameras can cost you about 80.000$
1901Steini No I’m speaking about photography, however, even on the video side it is outrageous. Many of these things are just overpriced computers.
Hi. I am trying to choose a camera. For my family pictures and videos. The choices are Nikon z6 or Sony a6600. I favor the Nikon for its sharper images. However my wife likes the Sony because of the compact lens available and lightweight. She thinks it's more practical. However I don't want to miss out on the best pictures. On UA-cam, I see that the image comes out very clear, but when I look at the LCD screen in the store or the viewfinder it does not come out as spectacular as the actual UA-cam videos. What do you think, what is your recommendation?
"I'd buy this because the most important thing is the photographer" ...... GREAT
Man this guy's still hating on Sony. Damn it's been like forever. Hadn't seen his videos since like 2013. But recently got back into photography again. I happily went with the a6300.
TheMichael408 someone else who notices lol! He hasn’t really stopped. He’s gotten better at making his bias not be so obvious as he will say positive stuff about Sony, but always conclude against it overall by finding ways of weighing it’s competitors’ advantages very very highly. Common and current industry knowledge puts Nikon Z6/Z7 are solid, but still behind Sony - especially at the time of this video when Nikon didn’t even have eye-AF
in my country A73 and Z6 are both priced at 2300 eur, EOS R is 2500 with adapter. Far from being affordable. Most of the people will probably still consider 6D1/2 or older FF Nikon cameras.
i live for your vids kai
The best camera out there is the one you own personally.
Oh come on, we all know the A7iii holds that title.
Nope, Z6
Ben Troxell facts!!! 💯
Yeah before the Z6
Not anymore!
Really you have the technically very good Sony A7III, with far worse ergonomics or the flawed Nikon Z6, which could do with a firmware update to help with the AF. If I was going for 1, I would go with the Nikon but the reality is. I picked the Fujifilm X-H1 9 months ago, over the Sony and the Nikon doesn't feel as good as the Fujifilm in hand, doesn't have as good AF, doesn't have the lenses, maybe slightly better at video but doesn't have the colour profiles on Fujifilm and this is before you even get onto the X-T3, which is cheaper and is awesome.
I have the A7iii and it’s autofocus is good . I really enjoy having the eye AF , but man it does feel like crap in the hand and its buttons are small . If the Z6 had a better Af system I would have that instead . In the end it doesn’t matter just use whatever works for you .
I liked this. Shame about the Northrup mention though (shudder).
great review! very enjoyable. So Adobe DNG converter couldn't convert them? Latest version works fine with the Canon EOS R. I hope to see you review the Panasonic Full frame models when they become available!
Nope, not yet, unfortunately. I hope so, too!
man. I really want this camera, but at the same time. I still want a d750 replacement that's not the 850. Gonna have to wait until next year to see what Nikon releases.
Solid work Kai!
I have a mint 80-200 D. Screw focus which seems exactly how Nikon felt about supporting D series lenses.
Remember before the A7 when people said putting a FF sensor in a body like the A/Z/R was impossible
Needs in-body stabilization. That 4k 25fps footage gave me a nosebleed, it was shaking so much.
It does.
the z6-7 I'm sure are nice but nikon made some odd choices like the Z7 cost near enough the D850 yet only one memory chip place on the Z7. I think I will wait for the next generation.By then they will have more lenses two memory slots hopefully perhaps even a better sensor.
I have a Nikon d700 and I kinda wanna get a z6 I also have a canon SL2 and I wanna get a canon Eos R but I also love the a7iii, should I just get them all XD
What model is that monopod? Looks super cool

7:42 well played XD XD
I think there are some dust on the sensor in the camera with which you are shooting the vlog
BTW, to anyone who wants a good comparison of the Z6, EOS-R, and A7III... see DPReview's video. They did a fair review of all 3, and basically the A7III is the best all around camera, with the Nikon in second place, and the Canon in a sad third place.
I agree with the natural guest! The 3D-Tracking was a blessing.
(as an M-glas on SL user, sometimes longing back).
...the censurated Lynx´s butt :) nice touch!
Would love to see a re-review with Firmware 3.0!
I would 100% get this camera if the AF performance for vlogging in 4k was as snappy as a Canon EOS-R. I just don't see Nikon doing enough to be competitive in AF. My D750 is horrible for vlogging, and I've tried to search around for anyone that can give me tips on vlogging with it because I want to believe it's just me being dumb, but I'm not sure if anyone actually is using it for vlogging in AF mode.
07:44 the timing 😂
On my D5 I have D25 AF-C with back button focus. I'm so used to back button focus that I sure hope the Z7 can compare. The fastest focusing lens on the D5 is the 70-200E or VRIII. Anyways my 200-500 is not that fast, so I wouldn't be using it to test focusing speed

The natural world is amazing.
