Not sure what all the fuss is all about. The Photons to Photons site that Toneh points to shows that the Z6III matches the dynamic range of the z8 & z9 up to ISO 400, between 400 and 650ish the Z8 and Z9 have slightly more dynamic range, but by ISO 800 and onward they all match up again. But I don't hear anyone complaining about the dynamic range in the z8 or z9. Only z6II and Zf seem to have consistently higher dynamic range but, again, by ISO 800 the z6II, z6III, z8, z9, zf ALL have roughly the same DR. And as many folks on KZread are now demonstrating the real world differences in DR at these ISO's are negligible.

Can you please make the original ProRes video files available for download?

Thank you for the video. Are you using the Mystic filter? By the way, have you tested the camera with ISO 100? It seems to have 1 stop more than with ISO 800.

Thank you for watching and no I’m use a black diffusion filter by neewer. Also I have tested iso 100 just not with video! That’s something I’ll have to test on my upcoming shoot. However when filming in NLog the camera won’t let you go under iso 800.

If you light and expose a scene proper it does not matter ...der peoblem is if you dont have the time or fast chaning situations. I wos buying a 24mpx sensor because of low noise and dynamic range and now i have a cam thats not as good in this points than the 45Mpx sisters of the camera. :-( .. im not sure if i should return it and get the (for me too big) z8

I shoot weddings in the Philippines. Fast changing situations and stupid reception lighting is our daily challenge here. Yet despite that, I don't feel any problem the old sensor of my Nikon Z5 in quick lighting changes. Not much difference to my Nikon Zf. Of course, my GFX 50R spanks both when it comes to highlight recovery but noise performance is better even on the old Z5. I'm not convinced barely a stop of difference in dynamic range and noise performance on test charts matter in real life situations. If you have a Z6 III, you already have one of the best cameras out there. It's up to you to bring out the best of your photography.

Good stuff!! Though I’m not a video kind of guy, was wondering about landscapes. Like; I wonder if I’d really be able to tell the difference between a Z7ii and the Z6iii if I printed a 24x24 picture of a mountain and hung it on a wall. Could both be totally different looking?

@samwitthecam

21 күн бұрын

Thank you!! And I believe if you use a high quality printer then you will see the difference in sharpness. I don’t think it will be drastic though! Personally I think high megapixels are for cropping and reframing. With high megapixels you can physically do more with the image and still maintain quality.

My camera has 15 stops of dynamic range and it was made in 2005 can you guess what it is by the way it isn't just ratio it's also the number of clear steps between brightness and darkness

@@samwitthecam and i meant it. People be keyboardwarriorin‘ about thery specs all day, but the images i get in 6kraw or NLOG on this camera absolutely destroy what i got from 4years of A7s3. The Nikon Colour and Contrast Rendering together with their amazing glass just hits different. Ive shot a7s3 for 4 years professionally, it works amazing, but the colours are always a fight…sire i get it done, but its always a timeconsuming struggle… nikon and Fuji are the only Companies where the base files are so good in contrast ratio and colour, thats its not „how do i get it to look decent“ but more like a creative Paintbrush…no matter which direction i push the image (moody, bright, warm, cool) it somehow always looks absolutely gorgeous. Only ever experienced that with blackmagic or fuji, but Nikon is ballin here. Not only an absolute filmmaking MONSTER (6k60 RAW INTERNAL) but also a near flawless Photo camera…a dream come true

@samwitthecam

21 күн бұрын

@@jpdemora I am so glad you asked this question. It could all boil down to preference. But after using pro Res raw the image quality of the Z6iii is definitely better than the highest internal quality of the FX3. I love the FX3 because I am a fan of SLog and Scinetone at 10 bit. But now the Nikon can do up to 12 bit with its flat profile that competes with SCinetone and also Nlog that competes with S log3. But as far as image quality is concerned, I think Nikon wins and also there’s a plethora of codecs to choose from.

That was interesting. I'm using the Z6ii and pretty happy with it. On the fence about the Z6iii. Looking at the Z7

@samwitthecam

22 күн бұрын

Definitely worth the upgrade!

It would be best if you tried to balance the image in the third scenario by lifting the shadows of the foreground to match the background and seeing how noisy it gets. Also, the third scenario is moderate in terms of dynamic range. If you ask me, the scene in the kitchen with the lamps is more extreme. The DR is the only thing stopping me from getting this camera. Still waiting for more tests.

I think overheating is the main concern for these hybrid cameras over dynamic range.

IMO, it's a non-issue at all. With my tin-foil hat on, I think it was just an amplified issue by people who have no plans to buy the camera (or any Nikon) just because the Z6 III is almost perfect and the features to price ratio is just unbeatable. Gotta nitpick at something. Pull straws from a golden haystack. I shoot weddings and in our country, it's a messy affair with rapid pace and plenty of uncontrollable lighting situations. Granted I shoot photos so the editing latitude is much higher with photo raws compared to video files. But still, my old Z5's files are plenty good even compared to my GFX files when I have to push or pull under or overexposed shots. If I had to push/pull exposure by more than 4-5 stops and the image looks like shit, then that's not the camera's fault. It's my fault for not being able to anticipate and adjust either the shutter, aperture, or ISO to a good setting. I'm looking forward to Nikon trickling down the partially-stacked sensor to a Zf II or maybe a rangefinder-style Z in the future. I just hope they replace the screen with a 2-way tilt instead of the flippy one right now. I understand it on the hybrid bodies like the Z6/Z7 but on the Zf, it's a body that's much more suited for photography.
