Matt, Nikon has done an amazing job of introducing cameras and lenses for the professional market. The introduction of a Z6III, would complement the Zf camera and address the mid-range camera market (cameras for the hobbyist, enthusiast and second camera for the professional). As a Z50 user and preference for APSC camera, Nikon is lacking cameras in this market. Their competitors have lots of options in this market. Nikon needs to address this market with new APSC cameras, perhaps a Z50II and Z70/90. In my opinion a APSC camera with IBIS, similar AF to the ZF and Z8 and better battery life than the Z50 would be an awesome camera. Let's hope Nikon is listening.
Big tech KZheadrs don’t even know the scope of what Nikon does. I love how Nikon’s focus on imaging technology makes them the company that they are!👍🏾
I'm hoping for a z50 upgrade
Happier and happier with the Zf every time i use it.
I’d be happy with the Zf in a contemporary body for the Z6III.
We really want these detailed videos every week, so awesome. Great work man...❤❤
I gave up waiting for Z6iii and bought the Z8. It's more MP than I need but I want bird autofocus and I have trips coming up that I couldn't wait to start the transition from my Z6ii
You made the RIGHT decision
I'm a wedding and real estate photographer and videographer, and I shoot marathons and triathlons on the side. For real estate, I can still get by with my z6II, but I'd love the AF tracking features of the Z9/Z8 in a mid-range affordable lightweight package, along with those wonderful Nikon ergonomics and durability, for everything else. The Z6III would be a great addition for versatility as a primary cam for weddings and a backup for sports/weddings and real estate, where my Z9 and Z6II are currently used. Waiting to buy the right 3rd work camera that would essentially cover everything I currently do without missing a beat, should something break and need repairs, or become too expensive to fix.
Thanks for your thoughts. I prefer using dedicated cameras, even cheap compacts over phones.
Cheers Matt, I love your channel and find your delivery both informative and relaxing. I own 2 Z50's, because I really enjoy using them. I think that they are a very under-appreciated camera. I also have my trusty Z6 which I also adore. I find that both the Z50 and Z6 have their place in my personal work flow. I pair up one of my Z50's with my 200mm-500mm f5.6 and just love the combination. Great for my birding and deer stalking. My Z6 I use for everything else, macro work in particular married up with my 105mm f2.8. Since last October I've bust a blood vessel, or two, agonising over getting the beautiful Zf. I realised very quickly after reading the specs that it wasn't just a pretty face but a scientific marvel too. After watching your review on it I made the decision to treat myself to one. I absolutely love it, I'm still adjusting to it's wonderfully different rhythm but it has made me smile each time I switch it on and use it. I'm currently waiting for my new Z28mm-400mm f4-8, which is on order. I decided to get one after watching your review on it. Thank you for taking the time to spread your passion for photography around this wonderful planet. I'm either going to have to stop watching your channel so much or get another mortgage, hee, hee!. Keep up the good work and thanks again. From a very happy chap here in the UK. 🍀🍀😊🍀🍀
Thank you so much and I am glad you love your Zf, please let us all know what you think of the 28-400. Cheers Matt
Thanks, will do. 🍀🍀😊🍀🍀
These sales figures are backed up by my data From DPReview In the last quarter Nikon out sold Canon full frame by two to one, and even outsold Sony full frame. The same with full frame lenses
Lots of good and pleasing info, thanks!!
Matt, those Japanese sales are very interesting in that the Z8 ranks very high even though its a very expensive camera
Merci Matt, toujours passionnant, et quel plaisir vous nous apportez.
Merci
Hello Matt, Camera over phone, Yes a phone dose good results but cameras can give amazing results, with the last bit down to the person behind the Camera. I have the 19mm PC-e lens from Nikon and it is superb at what it can do, but dose not work for every image. (Not a cheep lens). For me it would be a 24mm PCe in Z mount.
Camera vs phone? Would depend on situation. I prefer a camera of course but sometimes a phone with a good camera is more feasible.
A D6 firmware update! I note it was one of the new two step updates. Surely this is the last update for the greatest DSLR ever; as 'forgotten' as it was almost from the very beginning :) Love the peek at Nikon manufacturing back of the house. AND, if NIKON shipped firmware that didn't work, the internet lens sniffing crowd would be calling for the company's collapse! NOT that i think the hate/click bait crowd should attack Sony.
I suspect they're holding off on the Z6iii on purpose so more people buy the Z8 impatiently. The Zf was basically everything I needed from a camera spec-wise (Expeed7 level performance, 10-bit video and better flipscreen) but I need all-day ergonomics and the buttons, but the Z8 is a step above in all regards so I opted for that instead of continuing to wait and I've seen so many people that got the 8 vs wait for the 6iii I might upgrade/sell my 6ii to the 6iii for my second body if it's appealing enough
I bought into Nikon cameras and have enjoyed all of them a lot. I love my Z9 more as the firmware rolls out new features. It is however theZ6Iii I am really waiting for. Nikon Z lenses are brilliant. Even so it will be very tempting to press send on an order for a Z6iii just like the order for the Z9 I placed about a week after the launch. This time it will be hours rather than days for lots and lots of Nikon users.
Nice recap of the news Matt - very interesting and educational - you might mention a little more clearly in the title that this is a news video - that wasn't totally obvious to me from the title, but as always watched the whole thing and loved it! -PD
Good call Baron, as KZhead always suggest, try different things - perhaps next time I'll start with 'NEWS' - would that work ? Cheers Matt
@@MattIrwinPhotography Good question - yeah, maybe something like Weekly/Monthly (whatever the interval) Photo News Update: and then your title - just a thought.
If the z7ii had a vertical flip screen. It would be my end game camera
The Zf is selling very well! Not sure they are actually shipping enough Fujifilm X100VI's to make a dent in those sales numbers. They haven't made a dent in morming of launch orders yet so their production is anemic.
Phone Vs Real Camera. No contest. A phone is highly limited in many areas and tasks. If excellent prints are erquire, a phone image is what I consider, ... rether poor. I really like where Nikon is and where Nikon is heading. I also like the fact that if I want to use Nikkor lenses that I bought back in 1973, I still can. There are many other companies that have changed their lens mount and rendered their previous mount lenses usless! I'm not including Thread mount lenses. I would love to see another Nikonos U W camera. I used one for years both under water and in bad weather situations. I won't hold my breath! LOL
I walked into the store to buy sony a6700 but already sold out so i looked at Nikon z6ii and decided to buy it but it had to be ordered also. I then decided Canon r7 but with out the kit lens as I already have many Canon lenses and the adapter then they said they also had to order one without kit lens. Finally I walked over to Panasonic S5ii and an older guy was also looking at the display model but he had to xome back for it in a few days when he had enough money. i picked it up andnit was similar in feel to rhe sony a7 cameras but the other guy started telling me why he was going to buy the S5ii and dual cards, weather sealed and the best video of all of them plus IBIand they actually had one in stock so i bought it and got an extra free 50mm lens . im so happy with this purchase as its a complete joy to be ablento get pro results even Im an amateur. Just knowing I could do commercial work with my Lumix makes me smile.
I really hope that the next release is a combo of z6iii and some sort of new apsc camera maybe z70 or something like it to pair up with the z6iii for sports and wildlife. Or really just any dx with ibis and I’ll be happy.
Thank you for sharing 👍🏻 I think Forza Silicon has made sensors for Red. Not sure if they’ve made all or just some of them 👍🏻
Thanks for sharing I will look it up. 😀
Best Nikon channel by far. Do you think we get a 61mp Z7iii Matt?
I've tried but I don't think I'll ever enjoy taking photos with my iPhone or any phone, I've been with Nikon for forty years, I'm not changing now! Lol, cheers Matt!
Hello Matt could you start talking about a possible Z9II, Zh9 or even more a Z1 with enhanced video features and global shutter?
Matt answers me please
Yeah I am happy to speculate about it Due to popular demand !!!!
I would love to see something like. New model with features from, “Red” ZR1 flagship hybrid camera leaning toward film. Anamorphic de-squeeze in camera, live GND filters & ND filters (all in camera like OM1 Mark II), with continued stacked fast sensors so no rolling shutter.
I am only interested in high resolution cameras. Based on what I know of the current line ups from Canon, Sony or Nikon, for me Nikon is still the best there is considering the technology packed into Z8 and firmware upgrade support from Nikon. Sony is proposing to charge for firmware upgrade for its A9iii to unlock features on A9iii.
The RED deal is huge for Nikon. Wondering which way Nikon will go with their sensors? I guess TB is the new GB. I'm old enough to remember when a 270 MB Syquest disc was a lot of storage...
And Zip Disk. 100MB. Those were the days 😀
@@MattIrwinPhotography And today you could store one medium format image on it. Lol
24mm tilt shift please
If the Z6iii had a 36Mbit sensor, I would buy it in a heartbeat. A slight upgrade in resolution between the Zf and Z8 would probably be enough for me to buy the Z6iii. Otherwise, given that it looks like the Z6iii will probably stick with the 25MBit sensor, I think I will probably buy the Zf instead.
Z6III way overdue. Internal REDCODE RAW, 33MP Dual CFExpress B cards. That's all we need!
Nikon's success at lithography and their continued improvement financially just makes me more frightened that they could be a target for apple or simular to buy
on nikon z6iii release date: introducting nikkon z6iii also Martti : i have been using this camera for the past 3 months
I hope we get a new z5 ii first ngl ( a modern body zf?)
Dang I want one of those blue nikon caps from the factory 😂
That was a lot of information, take tomorrow off. 😊
Nikon needs retro style $1200-$1600 range capable retro style camera.
What's your opinion on the likeliness of a Z7 III?
Rumors Z70/90 ?????
Is Z6iii such a big deal? I am sure it will sell well - but does anyone expect it to be something else than a rehoused and cheaper Zf? Maybe with a slightly faster burst speed. Spec-wise Z7iii would be more interesting. But I am not so sure that they make a successor soon as the Z7ii is still pretty good for landscape and product photography.
I am hoping that the Z6iii is exactly as you described it !
Matt, that early part of the We make Nikon looks like an early 1950's factory Like a small cottage industry
Yes is some of that lens making?
Wouldn't mind seeing a Z80😃
A completely unique lens would be a Z 200mm f/2 TC, effectively giving a 300mm f/2.8. This would be perfect for indoor sports as well as outdoor portraits and fashion. Yes, it would be a fairly small market, but Canon has the RF 100-300mm f/2.8 and Sony has a 300mm f/2.8. Bringing the 200mm f/2 back, along with the 280mm f/2.8 at the flick of a switch, would be different. While the Z 70-200mm f/2.8 is excellent, at closest focus the tele end is reduced from 200mm to under 150mm. The prime+TC would stay at 200mm.
This doesn't make any physical logic I'm afraid. If 200mm f2 (or 2.8) has a TC it would lose minimum a stop of light so when engaged it would become between 350-400mm f/4. That's how the current 1.4 TC works, i don't think laws of physics will upgrade that fast specifically for teleconverters. 👀
@@dicekolev5360 A 200mm f/2 with a 1.4x teleconverter becomes a 280mm f/2.8 lens. That's how the "laws of physics" work.
@@UnconventionalReasoning I was actually thinking of another thing so nevermind + I am drunk, you are correct, lol. But 80mm is a waste of TC if you ask me 😄
@@dicekolev5360 It's less about the difference in mm, more about the ratio change. This is the same 1.4x that is in the 400mm f/2.8 TC and the 600mm f/4 TC. In all three cases, the comparison is between the focal length change of 1.4x or the crop of 1.4x, slightly less than a DX crop. If people are interested in teleconverters, the 1.4x has less image quality loss compared to the 2x, and it has only a 1-stop loss of light. Then, the advantage of the built-in TC is that it is optically matched to exactly that one lens, resulting in the least image quality loss, even less than a zoom lens. A decade ago, Nikon had both the 200mm f/2 and 300mm f/2.8 F-mount lenses. With the TC, these could be combined into one lens, increasing its usefulness and the number of people who might want to buy it.
More lightweight compact full frame cameras
I just saw your Z30 video where you celebrated 30k subscribers. Now you have 50k! So where is the Z50II?! 😅
Yes, if only .... hmm I need another plan !!!! 📷 🤔😀
I love my nikon cameras
Fantastic roundup, Matt! I only use my phone (iPhone 10S) for snapshots and occasional quick b-roll ... and I make the occasional phone call and text. Whatever Nikon releases next, I think we can be confident it'll be awesome! PC? I'm guessing wider first.
Yes wide is a great idea.
Hey Matt! I can imagine Nikon putting some of that RED secret sauce on the Z6III, so perhaps it will not just be a Z8 mini. What do you think?
Still no focus stacking for the Z50, disappointing.
I have a Z5, would like to see a Z5 II with the internals of the Zf… aimed to photographers, don’t care too much about video.
Nikon did not announce its 28-400mm lens and I had just bought a Tamron 150-500mm... ouch, a lose for me and Nikon.
canon r5 mk2 is soon. people have been saying that for about a year. nikon probably stopped making that f-mount tilt shift lens ages ago, and now decided to make an official announcement. as for the z6iii, until i hear word from nikon, then i will believe it. nikon rumours should not been taken seriously, and anyone that echoes what they say is generally made to look like a liar.
Funny watching all the boys rant on about how they think Nikon is a niche camera maker and can't possibly know what they are doing in the "Film" industry. I couldn't believe the ignorance of some of these kids after the Red merger.
We thought the Z6iii would have come last year. We go a Zf instead that to my mind was to try and capitalise on the resurgence of retro design introduced by the Fuji x100v that a Nikon Zfc didn’t get. Let’s face it if you like apsc you go with Fuji and their lens system. Full frame is Nikon’s bread and butter with their DX lens passed off as budget choices.
Camera's for photo's. Phones for snaps.
So true
It is 2024 and we are speculating on the z6iii
camera
Maybe the z6iii will just be an upside down z9
Matt, I loved the content of this video, very informative. Haven’t watched for a while due to illness but what is with the constantly changing backgrounds and you moving all over the place. Incredibly annoying, distracting and not great to watch. Your informative content and insight are why I watch you. You don’t need gimmicks!
Sony should stick to their Strengths >> TV and such
Lol its a Trinitron
Thanks Matt, great content as usual. I hate phone cameras. I must have a viewfinder, can't see a thing on a phone screen!
I hardly ever use my phone - only for photos of stuff I want to buy in a shop As I'm an older guy, I will never go to phones I just feel stupid holding something out in the air, and I like being able to steady the camera with my face. Also, I find that my g/f cannot get the same composition as I can my my Nikons
