    honestly, the effect of wow did not produce. Top camera of the middle segment. For a family, the ultimate dream, for commercial activities is not ideal. Really excellent iso up to 3200. Then everything seems to be fine and up to 6400, but the noise is visible. I was pleased with the XQD card that everyone scolds. Yes, it's expensive. But no one will give a 10-year guarantee against it so easily. Unusual to see the end result in the viewfinder before the release. Nice feature. For a family, I…

    Pros
    • Ergonomics, Nikon
    Cons
    • unstable operation of the DX lens, does not support Sigma fixes until 2022 release

    The quality exceeds all expectations, I recommend to buy.

    P. S. Nikon, if you are reading this, please continue to develop towards video recording. Make an adapter for Canon and Sony lenses so that people, regardless of the system they are in, switch to you, use your badies! You have created an amazing product and I am sure that if you continue to develop in the same direction (improving the quality of video recording), people will switch to you. Nikon, today, definitely has an advantage in ergonomics, and this is incredibly important for me, and for…

    Pros
    • Finally, Nikon released a camera with normal autofocus in the video! With the release of the d850, I already despaired, I was going to switch to Canon - and this is the sale of the entire heap of optics on the F mount. - it would be expensive and painful. I can't get enough. Ergonomics and use of the camera: Ergonomics, as usual, are perfect. There are just as many buttons as needed. Very convenient joystick for selecting the focus point. A very convenient rear screen - I almost completely stopped using the viewfinder. Switching the toggle switch from photo to video is an ingenious invention. To the engineer who came up with such an idea - a deep bow. Now I can shoot video and photo material in parallel, without being distracted by changing settings (which I couldn’t do before, because the settings for photos and videos are completely different.) Shooting video: Amazing quality slow motion. You can shoot up to ISO 5000 with virtually no loss of color depth, which is very cool when shooting concerts and lamp events. Full frame video. It’s also very cool that you can write 4k without crop at a bitrate of 144mbps (it seems), Sony writes 100mbps - the difference in bitrate between cameras is immediately noticeable when viewing, Nikon writes a huge amount of detail. Video in 4k ProRes RAW. I haven't tested it yet, but I plan to in the near future. Lenses: All F mount lenses fit (as expected) without any problems, the focusing speed is the same as on a regular camera. You can put DX lenses on the camera and continue shooting 4k! This is very cool, you can continue to use the ultra-wide for crop. Sensor stabilization: It's really cool that this feature is finally added. Now you can shoot video handheld with any lens. Ease of use - Nikon, add an sd card so that you can write video on it with a resolution of up to 1080 and so that you can write JPEG on it when recording jpeg + RAW. FTZ adapter: - does not support lenses without a motor! Very sad news. Although there are no complaints about the rest of the lenses. USB C - The camera can be charged from a bank - fast download!
    Cons
    • There are no hard flaws, just something to improve. What to improve: File recording formats: - Record video in HEVC 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 - Switch to HEIC instead of jpeg (your files take up a catastrophic amount of space, there are already better formats for saving videos and photos - go for them! Plus, memory cards are very expensive, and besides, storing the works themselves - hard drives are also not free.) Shooting video: Keep polishing soft autofocus Limit the focusing distance (I don't always need the camera to focus in the entire range, sometimes I need the camera to focus within 2-4 meters from me and not fly away to infinity if it suddenly notices a face in the background. (In mode video). Make 10bit video standard quality Add in-body RAW video, at least 1080. Put a more powerful audio chip into the camera! Memory cards: XQD is one huge downside as the cards are just infinitely expensive. 64GB costs about 14,000, which is very expensive for me. (Although in terms of read / write speed - the card is excellent). Given the size of the files (what a photo, what a video), you have to merge several times during the shooting. (I mainly do event photography) It is very difficult to find an XQD adapter - in all photo stores (at least in St. Petersburg, it comes mainly only on order.) Plus, it is also expensive. The fact that there is only one connector does not bother me so much, although of course it would be nice to have two. Camera ates: Please, when you release a new model and if you improve the focusing speed in it, release an ate for Z6 and Z7 🙏🏻🙏🏻 so that every owner of these cameras can install them - this will only add endless respect to you, and you will have sales anyway. Make sure that the camera can be ated by cable, through a computer. I still don't have an XQD reader and have to do without eye AF because I can't copy the file to my card.

    Good camera for photography. Not the best autofocus in the world. For video, it may not be the best choice.

    Wonderful quality, one hundred percent satisfied!

    Beautiful, fast, comfortable. Correct the ability to upload firmware to the camera from a computer directly. What kind of kindergarten is this? While I waited for the card reader - I was depressed :) Photo from the camera below :)

    Pros
    • Gorgeous rate of fire, tenacious autofocus in the eyes, huge dynamic range, compatibility with F-mount optics. The viewfinder is just fire ! Good screen - informative and juicy. Light weight. Ergonomic and intuitive.
    Cons
    • It does not work with autofocus backlight for flashes - only its own green one - which makes it useless in conjunction with the nikkor 24-70 with F mount, it overlaps with the size of the lens.

    I really like the product, it fully meets my expectations.

    I bought a camera in addition to the already existing D850. To say that I was impressed is to say nothing . Focusing on the eyes and in general working in LiveView causes only positive emotions, it hits the target very accurately and quickly. I was very worried about how the F lenses would work on the new camera, since there is a rather impressive park of optics, but it turned out that the worry was in vain, everything works perfectly through the adapter. The viewfinder also pleasantly…

    Pros
    • -The weight -Ease of use -stabilization - work at high iso -focusing - relatively low price - the ability to use lenses with F mount -batteries are the same as those of SLR cameras
    Cons
    • Save Multiple Exposure to JPEG

    Revainrating 5 out of 5

    I didn³'t expect the quality to be this good.

    Separately, it must be said about autonomy, because it is higher than the declared 270 frames. On one battery ≈ 450 shots. In general, the camera is excellent.

    Pros
    • • Image quality • Ergonomics (relative to competitors) • Best viewfinder in class • Matrix stabilization • Complete FTZ adapter
    Cons
    • There are no serious shortcomings, rather nit-picking • Compared to D850/7200/750, the grip is a bit small • The rubber cover on the case next to the Fn1 and Fn2 buttons wears off over time • No screwdriver

    A good quality product, I rate this purchase perfectly.

    When I first read about this mirrorless camera, I thought that it was the most ideal option for me. For those who shoot both photos and videos at the same time. To be honest, I did not even plan to take the Z6. I just dreamed about her. And it seemed that the dream would not come true. But as soon as I saved up for this baby, and got a push from my mother in the form of "You deserve it!", I went and bought it (the only copy in my city!). And now I enjoy the shooting of the purchase! It's just…

    Pros
    • It's just space! An easy-to-use camera that helps you take cool pictures. You don't need to take a test shot to see what the result will be. - Immediately in the display you see what kind of picture you get. - Raising iso is not scary, noise is minimal. - Convenient movable display - Pleasant to hold, comfortable grip - It is possible to use old lenses with an adapter (but there are some nuances)
    Cons
    • - The battery still drains much faster (but this is not a problem, just buy several at once) - Too open matrix (at first I was scared even to change lenses) - In my city there is no way to take it to the service. Therefore, to install a new firmware, you need to buy an adapter for xqd cards.

    Revainrating 5 out of 5

    A very high-quality product, I take it not for the first time.

    The use of an XQD card didn't hurt, as UHS-II SD cards, which the Sony Alpha can write 4K video to, cost the same price. Although, of course, XQD still needs a card reader. To begin with, I rented a Sony Alpha 7M3 and this device, so I could not decide what to buy. This device bribed with a comfortable grip, ease of working with the menu and implemented buttons. They shoot both devices perfectly. So, if you are new to these systems, it will be difficult for you to make a choice. By the way…

    Pros
    • High resolution viewfinder screen and screen on the rear wall. A full-featured touch screen on the back wall, including the ability to shoot with a touch. The presence of a mode dial. Optimal body height for a comfortable grip (as high as an APS-C DSLR).
    Cons
    • Limited number of shots per charge. The impossibility of simultaneously charging the battery in the camera and shooting. Constant tapping with fingers (long or gloved) on customizable buttons 1 and 2.

    Revainrating 1 out of 5

    Disgusting quality, impossible to use.

    The camera is not worth the money, for amateur photos a mobile phone is better, but not cheap, And for the pros, completely different cameras are needed. I do not recommend throwing money on this camera. Got pros: Mirrorless, small size. The ability to use old lenses through an adapter. Cons: I took two Nikon cameras for testing. One Nikon Z6. Experienced great disappointment. Good picture quality is only at low resolutions, at high resolutions there is no drawing of details. Something is wrong

    A good quality product, I rate this purchase perfectly.

    First shot taken with D5300 The rest of the photos were taken on #NikonZ6 You can see more photos on my instagram @weston_kir ()

    Pros
    • Before buying the camera, there were doubts, because it was supposed to be my first professional technique, but when I held it in my hands and tried to shoot at Nikonplaza, my doubts quickly disappeared. It's been two months since the purchase, and I'm not afraid of this word, I'm happy that I chose this particular camera - Z6. And that's what I liked. ✔️ Firstly, working through the display allows me to find new angles. It makes it easier to contact models with him. I want to note that the photos that you see on the display directly during the shooting will be the same in the gallery. ✔️ Secondly, amazing work at night thanks to the high working ISO and the stabilizer in the camera, which allows you to shoot at rather slow shutter speeds, which was very important for me, because lately I have been doing neon and night portraits. ✔️ Thirdly, the compactness of the camera itself and high-quality assembly. The Nikon Z 6 can be taken almost anywhere and used comfortably in all weather conditions. ✔️ And fourthly, the amazing work of tracking autofocus on the face and eyes. While in low light it often misses, but the rest of the time it works flawlessly. In the future, I plan to master video shooting, and this camera will allow me to do this, because the Z6 records video in 4K format at a speed of 30 frames per second, and the recording comes from the entire field of the frame without crop, and this is important. The camera can also record 10-bit N-Log video to an external recorder. Summing up, I can say for sure, if you want to go to the professional level and do not know which camera to take, then without any hesitation choose the Z6.
    Cons
    • Until I discovered

    I am satisfied, the purchase is quite successful.

    I took it to shoot digital with m mount lenses, which I shoot on film with. As a result, disappointed, I will save up for m10 === . After a while, I bought a new autofocus 85 / 1.8S. The picture is an excellent bunch, autofocus is still not like on Sony. And it is not clear whether to wait for new firmware and improvements. But I wanted to supplement the review after reading the latest reviews of some crazy people, either they didn’t hold the camera at all, or they didn’t understand anything…

    Pros
    • The matrix is ​​good, no doubt. EVF is great.
    Cons
    • Ergonomics - I don’t like a lot of things (I describe fresh impressions, lenses are manual) 1) How can you hold the carc with one right hand, hold the ISO on and turn the front dial to switch auto-iso - fixed ISO? I can't get upset 2) Why do we need + - ons if there is a touch screen? Work in winter with gloves? Leave it for the Z7 3) Focus peaking just compared to Fuji. If fuj, when hovering over a cardboard with text, also shows the edges of the text, then Nikon only shows the edges of the cardboard. With any sensitivity setting. 4) After enlarging the screen (zoom in) when focusing, you cannot zoom out by half-pressing the shutter on. Just again reach for the on that you zoomed in on. It just kills. 5) The USB plug is huge. To plug in a USB (yes, I still haven't bought a reader), I have to tear it off along its entire length. 6) Dualism joystick and OK + ons. They are so similar in essence, but the OK on can be programmed to zoom in view mode, but pressing the joystick cannot. Although the joystick under the finger is closer. 7) The cover of the flash drive sometimes creaks a little at hand 8) The modes cannot be switched with the left-right ons (or did not figure out where to set it up). Only disk rotation. More precisely: some can be anything, including touch, for example, ISO. But the shooting modes s / l / h are neither touch nor navigation ons, only by rotating the disk. Where is the logic and uniformity?

    Certainly a revolution in photography from a technical point of view. The quality of photos at all settings is decent. All modes are adjusted. The chance to get a high-quality picture is higher than in DSLRs. The ability to see the results of exposure compensation directly in the eyepiece. A week later : The picture quality is great! All lenses give the maximum of their capabilities and there is no point in adjusting them, as on a DSLR. During operation, scuffs from nails appeared near the F1…

    Pros
    • The best viewfinder, large and informative. You can finally focus manually. Sharpness is on top, better than on a DSLR. Many sizes of NEFF. Fixies began to draw much better. Pink and green halos, typical for large apertures on a DSLR, are absent here.
    Cons
    • Weak tires. Nikon z5 is better. The memory card door (aka thumb rest) is weak and requires very careful handling.

    A great option for this money, I definitely recommend it!

    I would like the company to improve tracking autofocus on the eye, otherwise it lags behind competitors in speed. In all other moments, the camera is completely satisfied. Has pros: I am a wedding photographer and in June I purchased a Nikon Z6 camera. The camera has excellent autofocus, a very large dynamic range, excellent detail, comfortable grip and very beautiful Jpeg directly from the camera and the ability to work at high iso. I really like the bright display, which is similar in…

    I was surprised by the quality for this price.

    From the middle of February in 2022, I have been utilizing this equipment. I decided to take it as a replacement for an extremely mature D3s. The camera has garnered mostly favorable reactions from reviewers. I adored how we narrowed in! Even when it is almost completely dark, it is able to focus very quickly and with very few failures. Also, when shooting in the studio, putting the emphasis on the subject's eyes is really helpful. In addition, there is a significant reduction in the number of…

    Pros
    • User friendliness. The focusing process is incredibly quick and precise. Attention, eyes! Maintain a high ISO setting. That of the weight. The magnitude. The capacity to utilize all of one's available optics through the use of an adaptor. Display that can be moved.
    Cons
    • The left side of the camera features a variety of plugs and connectors that can be accessed. A significant quantity of dust is accumulating on the matrix. Memory card case that does not have a lock (very easy to open by accident) Memory cards are stored in one available slot. Memory card XQD (XQD) (cost 128GB at the moment 20.000r) The current lack of availability of optics made by third parties that are compatible with the new mount. The cost of the adapter for optics with an F-mount is comparable to that of a lens.

    Valuable purchase, nothing but pluses!

    The camera was bought to replace the D600, bought in 2022, which, in principle, suited me with everything, except that the tight autofocus became annoying + I like to shoot on the ancient Helios and break my eyes, aiming manually, a little tired. Focus peaking in Zetka solved this problem and manual focusing is now a pleasure. Plus, the 50 1.4G I have played with new colors - on the D600, shooting with it was a real torment at an open aperture, there were a lot of misses, but now all the frames

    Pros
    • 1. Excellent autofocus. 2. In-camera stabilization - sharp photos for 1/3-1/15 sec. from 24-70 I didn’t even try to do it, but now it’s quite possible. 3. Comfortable grip, although this is very individual and not very important for me. 4. Good screen and easy to use. 5. Compatible with old DSLR batteries (D600 in my case). 6. Good picture at high ISO.
    Cons
    • 1. Biting price of XQD cards. 2. A small (so far) choice of Z optics and not the most pleasant prices for it. 3. I would like to further improve the autofocus on the eyes and add autofocus on the eyes of animals - competitors can do this. 4. The screen is excellent, but I would like to see it swivel, and not just tilted.

    I did not take the camera and I do not advise others. But maybe Nikon will turn to the users of the products face then everything is possible. Pros: Standardization of mounts, form factors of camera bodies, lenses. Refusal of mirrors, as a result of smaller dimensions and weight. Some cons: Matrix noise at the level of average models of 2022 - 2022 is now sorry 2022, why? The battery capacity is enough for a DSLR and this is a Mirrorless. It doesn't take long. As conceived by Nikon, the camera…

    A wonderful product, its nice to use.

    I am an ordinary amateur, I bought the camera for the soul, for family photography. Definitely satisfied with the purchase. If you have the opportunity and desire to purchase Nikon, I definitely recommend it. Although we must pay tribute to recently, worthy competitors have appeared on the market, which will also find their admirers and fans. And remember, it's not the camera that takes the photo, it's the person.

    Pros
    • I have been using the camera for less than a week, so my review will not be so objective, just first impressions: - I would attribute to the pluses that the XQD card is really used - fast. Yes honey. But they say that quality problems should not be. Pictures are saved quickly - a definite plus compared to my dinosaur D310. - silent shooting is fantastic, nothing rumbles, it's unusual and I definitely like it. I will probably use it all the time. - Touch screen. Probably no one will be surprised by this, but everything is logical and understandable . Although, again, this is subjective. - the biggest plus is what you see on the screen is what you get in the photo. With a mirror, this is a little more difficult, there is always the possibility of making it a little darker or lighter. Here, as I understand the misses are reduced to a minimum. - tenacious autofocus on the eyes. Now autofocus misses are reduced to a minimum. Although they say that Sony is the leader, but IMHO Nikon is not inferior (based on my little experience again) - another BIG plus for me is that the camera, compared to the sony a7 lll (I originally wanted to take it), the camera looks more "solid" and "expensive". Sony somehow looks somehow simple and does not give emotions. Although Sony definitely has its advantages, everyone knows about them;)
    Cons
    • - perhaps the price, and even then, due to the fact that the rate has grown, I had to overpay a little.

    Exactly as promised by the manufacturer, high quality.

    Completely happy with the apparatus! Work equipment that is both versatile and resistant to wear and tear. I chose approximately three months, in comparison with the Sony a7-3, the Kenon R, the Fujifilm gsh5, and the Fujifilm xt-4. In comparison, I experienced everything in one location, and I borrowed all five devices from different people. The screen and the bitrate of the video, which crumbles at the smallest mistake on shooting + menu, pricey optics, caused Sony to depart almost instantly…

    Pros
    • The top camera and video recorder in one convenient package. Autofocus was perfected with updated firmware, and it is now on par with dual-pixel Kenon cameras and even better than Sony. Added equal video; despite the fact that lines were skipped, the overall visual quality is comparable to that of another level. I shot video on the D800 for many years and still photography on the D750. Both cameras produce strikingly different results when compared to their respective predecessors. About the photograph, there are no concerns whatsoever. The optics in the G-series are reliable and consistent.
    Cons
    • Expensive memory card, Nikon's terrible idea in terms of a bat block, which is essentially complete slag, and stupidly an additional battery. All of these things combined make for a complete waste of money. Without the buttons for firing the weapon. totally and entirely. The screen would be able to rotate in any direction at all.

    I do not recommend buying a camera, raw and ill-conceived, I did not expect such disgusting quality from the matrix. It's better to spend money on a decent mobile phone, in the vast majority of cases there will be much better pictures.
