  • Our good friends over at Nisi let us test out their Athena Prime Lens Set during the downtime of night 2 at NAB! So we took our 9 hours, paired the lenses with the Nikon Z8, and tested them around Las Vegas. We also had a chance to use the new NiSi PL-Z mount adapter for these lenses! This is going to open up a range of lenses for the Nikon Z mount line, specifically for the Nikon Z8 and Z9.
    Many thanks to Derek Morrison, for all the help behind the camera during NAB. Give him some love on Instagram: / dmorrison.colorist

    Thank you NiSi for letting us play with these lenses overnight at NAB! Such a fun set of lenses! Can't wait to get more hands on time with them!

    Awesome job! 🎉❤ Excellent lens! I love the skin tones and the vibrant colors of Vegas! You and Derek captured a moment for sure! 😊

    They sure do look good! The thing I liked the most out of them was how sharp they are, but they don’t have much character. They’re pretty clinical.

    Nice video. Reminds the music video for “Shot at the Night” by the Killers.

    Is there any hot issue with Nikon z8 ?

      Some people have complained about a hot card issue, but I haven’t gotten it. I think it’s cfexpress dependent. No issues at all in Vegas for NAB, and I did a 8K 60 test with no issues either letting the card run out. I’m currently using a prograde card

      @@funwebland there is only one CF express card slot. My test were only done in raw, which is probably the most taxing. If you’re asking, how do you shoot in those modes, you just change the settings.

      @@funwebland I have only shot RAW on the Z8. But the only thing you won't have is RAW controls, everything else will remain the same in the grading process.
