Nikon Z6 III - Hands on // Did they do it right ?
Nikon Z6 III is here. And I must admit. I have big expectation for this camera.
Are we getting a ISO machine? With the same autofocus quality as the Z8 and Z9. I am excited for the flip screen as a vlogger.
I cannot wait for using this out in the field and take it to the extreme.

Просмотров 6 тыс.14 дней назад
I have had the Nikon Z 600mm f/4 TC for about 6 month now. So here is my little in the field experience. Is it worth 15 000 dollars? What makes this difference from the older 600mm lenses. What about teleconverter? Every wildlife and bird photography is looking for that perfect lense. Is this it ? This channel is sponsored by Stavanger foto and Nikon. www.stavangerfoto.no

1 YEAR OUTDOOR with WILDLIFE PHOTOGRAPHY // Nikon Z8 - beaver photography in 4K
Honoured to be a subscriber! Love your work and it is inspiring mine!
Beautiful footage Trond, love the quiet forest.
Noise argument is invalid though.. The more MP, the more details, not more noise but you see it more clearly because you zoom in more,, and the more MP, the more easy to remove noise without losing details. It's math. I use a 61MP sensor and it has less noise than the 12 MP A7SIII. 24MP today is not optimal for birds/wildlife when you can have 45/50/61 and crop instead of using a 1.4 TC( or both crop and use TC)
Can you do comparison review between zf and z6iii
Already got the Z8, but I can see the z6iii is exciting.
Interesting to hear about your experiences. I'm especially interested in focus and image quality, as well as battery life.
My next camera for wildlife
I’m really considering selling my canon r6 to get this. Nikon has more “affordable “ tele lenses for wildlife. Currently using a r6 with 100-500. I would love to try the 6iii and 180-600. Later on want to try some of their PF lenses
It's a long over due needed up grade looks really good and performance seems to tick all the boxes , but outside of USA the price is way too high when you have to pay in currency other than USD. Z6III is too expensive everywhere right now , like check retail and nikons home page prices for Canada ,Europe UK, Australia and New Zealand they are crazy prices. Most people won't be buying as it is a massive difference in price compared to what Americans are paying with their local currency. It's like Nikon is saying to me , too bad so sad bad luck if you live outside of USA because you will have to over pay, if you want this Z6III camera.
Can't wait to see your next video ❤
I subscribed
I'm honestly not fussed, the Z6II had a lot of hype around it and I found the AF awful. I've shot Nikon for a long time including the Z6 soni know the AF fairly well.
Just look at the AF of the zf, Z8, Z9 & z6iii reviews with the latest updates, it's on par with others.
I don't understand the rational behind the Z6 III. It's clearly a Sony A7 IV, but at 33% higher price...
Never tried that camera. But you got a point
the issue I have with Sony is the top end lenses are ridiculously priced whereas with Nikon you can get a 500mm f4 for around £1700 And of course the Z6iii is more expensive, it's a brand new camera, the A7 IV is three years old now and at launch it cost around £2400 so it was only £200 cheaper than the Z6III
🤣🤣🤣
Mate just do some research
Llevo años esperando esta camara, tengo la Z6 II
A deeper discussion on the pre capture feature would be nice
I have a project and upcoming video on the subject :)
Hopefully they can make it available with raw. Not sure why they only did it with jpeg.
It’s a 1sec ring-buffer that runs as soon as you half-press the shutter. So it will then capture that 1sec buffer and store it to the memory card(s) as soon as you full-press. So then you don’t miss critical action-shots if you’re late on the shutter.
I've been shooting a D500 with the 200-500 f5.6 for years and been very happy with the files I get with the dx21 mp sensor. My concern about the Z6iii is its mp count. At 25 mp fx it seems like I will loose pixel density and resolution if I upgrade. Am I wrong?
I'm shooting the same setup...Yes you will lose a lot of pixel density..I forget the exact number but a D500 has almost the same pixel density as the Z8 if it were scaled up to FF..I'm hoping Nikon will give us a D500 replacement and bump the mp to 24...
A bigger concern for me would be the "loss" of 250mm of reach.. having the equivalent of 750mm at 5.6 is really used with wary Wading birds.
@@ajc1482 I don't disagree. A 33mp crop frame sensor would be a dream come true. Can you say Z500, Nikon?
@ajc1482 I agree, I love aps-c camera's..Like you said we would need to buy the 800pf or the 500pf which plays nice with tele's...But, yeah, I will take a DX body over FX...We need a DX 24-28 mp built like the Z9 with the best AF Nikon can do...I'm thinking stacked sensor and dual processors...I think it would shock them on sales...But I'm a raptor shooter so this would be a camera for me...
You are a Rock Start. I like your content
My "fear", if I get it, I'll ditch the Z8 and Z9. :^)
That's my thoughts too. I had the same problems with the Z50/Z6ii combo. I liked the Z50 because it was lightweight and I travel a lot I ended up using it more than my Z6ii.
I just came home from woodpecker session with this camera. And I must say I am impressed by the ISO performance. I get where you are coming from. But the way I think my Z9 is perfect in situations that I need to crop more. On shy birds and so on....
@@trondwestby5264 I have a strong use case for the large battery on the Z9, to a lesser extent the cropping room is useful too.
Anyone excited for this camera?
yes !
Oh yes! I preordered it the same day it was possible so I´m hoping for it to arrive (to Sweden) very soon!
It got my interest but then I saw the price of £2699 in the UK and thought that I can get a Lumix G9ii and I'm part way to getting another telephoto for that price. I don't care about the sensor size difference in case anyone says 😂 Also for reference a mid range S5ii is going for almost £1k new here in the UK as well so for all the selling and buying I would have to do to change to Nikon it doesn't seem worth it at all. Still I enjoy seeing new cameras :)
I am more interested for the z90 (crop camera) or a cheap (1500 dollars) full frame cam.
@Kampani_2024 Seriously manufacturers need to start putting out decent APSC cameras. I was having a discussion the other day how they are the perfect in-between of m43 and FF!
Thank you for great video.
I can relate to your enthusiasm. I felt likewise excited when I spent some time capturing images of a barred owl who seemed unflapped by my respectful presence.
It's a great video.😊
Love them, found a barn owl in an old barn last week, took a couple of photos in the dark, 18,000 iso on my D5, amazing to see
Barn owls looks awesome!
@@trondwestby5264 I need to go back and try for a better picture
Brilliant video!

Thank you so much! I agree :) They are so cool.
Fantastic adventure and great images!
Thanks a lot for the support!
Beautiful ❤
Thank you!
Hi trond, the voice of owl in background is so nice ,is it actual owl 🦉 voice
Yes....the best owl voice is from the tawny owl :)
@@trondwestby5264 wow
Fantastic!
Thank you!
You are so inspiring!
Really beautiful stills of the tawny owls, Trond. Very artistic.
Thank you so much!
Fabulous images of the Tawny owls - they are amazing creatures and I really admire your patience and field skills in getting close to them. Also, I loved the video of the adult and the chick in silhouette in the trees. Thank you!
Thank you so much for the compliment.
Awesome video! So many lovely clips and photos! Greetings from a Swedish youtuber! 🇸🇪
Thank you so much for the compliment :) Good luck with your channel. 👌
I'm so happy for you😊
Thank you!
I have heard Tawny owls at a location near me but I have never seen them, good video Trond
Hope you find them one day. Thank you so much!
What an amazing experience Trond, I've only had the opportunity to photograph a falconry Goshawk, but one day hopefully 🤞
great video and amazing shots tnx so much for sharing
Thanks a lot!
Fantastiske bilder Takk for det du deler👍😊👏👏
Tusen takk!
How lucky you are thank-you
Enjoyed your video - thanks.
Thats great to hear! Thanks for the support.
A wonderful but hard to do video. Well done Trond!
Just superb, Trond! 🙌🏻♥️
Thank you so much!
Great Owls photo’s Trond ❤🙏😇👏
Thank you so much! Appreciate the compliment.
Dignity = Mr Owl.
Awesome, congrats on the images and the amazing footage! I've found one in my local forest, heard it do what I think is some sort of alarm call for about 20 minutes straight twice, a couple of weeks apart during dawn. But during the daytime, no chance. Hoping for better luck in autumn, when there are fewer leafs on the trees.
Thank you so much! Good luck in the autumn! :)
Great video Trond it helps having another pair of hands getting them in the wild. Surprisingly chilled out with young around and great light in the end . Awesome 👍
Thank you so much!
Is anybody else fascinated by owls?
Yes i love them Have been lucky to photograph some here in Vesterålen, Norway and Lofoten 🦉 🇧🇻
I have been looking for owls for a long time, but unfortunately I never find any.
Oh yes, a bit to fascinated if you ask my wife! 😂
