The following opinions have been automatically translated with Google Translate.  | sent on December 09, 2025 Pros: AF Cons: Ergonomics top buttons, tiltable screen Opinion: In contrast to the trend, I write this review in one go, after only an afternoon of use coming from the older sister Z6II and therefore having clear automatisms of use as a Nikon user of the same level of range in my head. I can say a few things not even having seen the photos obtained yet and they are all about the impressions of use on the camera. 1- It seems absurd to me to design key movements once you have found an ergonomically valid position: what do you think of moving an insignificant but crucial key such as exposure compensation by a good centimeter away from the shutter release button and out of the operating axis of each human index finger? Why do you have to put him so in line with others? Or is it me who has such a deformation of the phalanges that they do not bend horizontally? 2- At first glance I had doubts about the comfort of the tilting screen and I had confirmation using it: turn it as you want but it will always be in the middle of the boxes and will end up hanged in the strap strap. For heaven's sake it is priceless compared to the Z6II to be able to orient it in all ways but stealing the pattern from its older sister Z8 instead of from a video camera would have been pure gold for a photographer. 3- I have to deepen the various settings but the AF improvements seemed stratospheric to me! In the previous version, eye hooking was lazy and limited to optimal conditions. In this new version it seems to see a new generation Terminator at work. I can't wait to see the photos taken. 4- As I did with the old version I will adopt a small metal grip in order to have just 2 cm more body height to be able to better grasp it even with the little finger and have the possibility of faster mounting on the tripod both horizontally and vertically. |
 | sent on October 18, 2025 Pros: Viewfinder, minimal blackout, AF, file weight and know-how inherited from the big sisters Z8 and Z9 (from firmware 2.00). Cons: Not received. Opinion: My opinion is based on experience of use in the field of nature photography, both stalking and wandering. I have used d80, d90, d3s, d500, d750, z6 and z6ii. The jump from the z6ii is big. I used Z6ii in reflex mode, that is, I set the single point with dynamic area, I looked for the subject (often first with the manual focus ring)... so after a few tests I never used the subject detection again (n.b. for the human face it worked well I don't know for pets) With Z6III the subject tranking has become really usable and with the firmware 2.00 and the Bird detection it has further improved. The percentage of af locking with non-homogeneous backgrounds has also improved a lot. Even in terms of functionality there are so many (auto capture - focus limit - pre-shooting - pixel shift ....) For the video sector, here too the options offered are really many. Well, now we just have to make the most of it to bring home many beautiful images! |
  | sent on July 05, 2025 Pros: Compactness, ergonomics, weight, viewfinder, overall quality Cons: A real shame the lack of protection for the sensor Opinion: Let's face it, it's been several years since we have seen any concrete news in the field of photographic sensors. Of course, they are always faster and more performing, but the quality of the files remains the same. Adaptive algorithms and very fast processors allow machine gun bursts and real sniper autofocus, but if we are not paparazzi, sports photojournalists or videomakers, we find ourselves paying for "secondary" potential compared to the quality of the general image. The Z6 III is a fast, accurate and streamlined camera. It allows you to tackle all genres of photography with ease and without weighing too much in your backpack and wallet. The front sight, the grip and the feeling of reliability that it returns in all conditions of use are excellent. Having thoroughly tried models with pro bodies and denser sensors, I think I can consciously leave them to those who really need them for work ... Or compulsive collectors. |
 | sent on May 23, 2025 Pros: Hand grip, ergonomics, construction, video options, camera customization, shooting speed (up to 120 fps), Autofocus, viewfinder, - 10 EV and others... Cons: Nothing. Maybe the sensor that is not protected when changing the lens. Opinion: After 6 months of use, I personally find this Z6 iii to be one of the best and well-built cameras from Nikon. I owned a Z6 ii but this Z6 iii surpasses it especially in shooting speed, AF and video options, (Nraw, 10 bit, N-LG, dual native Iso 800 and 6400 etc ...). Also note that in the photo its large buffer. It is simply an extraordinary machine that can face many challenges. |
 | sent on February 01, 2025 Pros: Fast af, burst, image quality, stabilizer, viewfinder, vari-angle and foldable display, dual slots, video options, and machine customization, construction and ergonomics., high iso rendering. Cons: Pre-shooting only in JPEG, with some lenses even Z is not available only the use of the mechanical shutter. Autonomy only quite good. The curtain that protects the sensor is missing when switching off, for changing lenses, it is there but only using the trick of removing the battery with the car on, but it is an inadvisable operation to do, at most in case of extreme emergency.

 | sent on January 20, 2025 Pros: Excellent performance even at high ISO, pre-burst, button customization, exceptional EVF in reproduction, both RAW and JPG image quality, color rendering, stabilization. In combination with the 28-400 you have an excellent all-rounder that is ideal for travel. Cons: EVF sensor that interferes with the use of the display in many situations. Poor battery life and incompatibility with batteries manufactured by third parties. Recessed front wheel, hard and uncomfortable. The vari-angle display looks very delicate. USB charging not working with all cables/power adapters. Relatively low resolution of the EVF when shooting. Two memory slots of different types and videos are not saved as a backup on the secondary. Upgradeable snap bridge software. Compressed RAW preview not yet integrated on MacOS. Opinion: I switched to the Z6III from a Canon 80D used predominantly with Tamron 16-300 for travel photography. Here are my impressions after a 2 week trip with a day of safari and about 3 months of use. Compared to the 80D I found it less comfortable, the position of the front wheel (compared to the upper position) I found very uncomfortable, aggravated by the fact that it is very hard and recessed. The sensor of the EVF is too sensitive and often interferes with the use of the menu from the display. It is possible to disable the automatic sensor, but it is inconvenient. On the Canon I have never had problems of this type. The camera behaves very well at high iso, up to 6400 iso the noise is very little and is acceptable even at higher values, on the 80D already exceeded 1600 iso it is a disaster. The pre-burst, despite the lack of RAW, is really a lot of fun and I was very satisfied. Continuous AF with animal tracking works well as long as the subject doesn't pass behind an obstacle, even in very small obstacles such as branches the camera loses focus and picks it up quite late. There are various options, maybe I didn't find the right combination. In combination with the 28-400 the camera tends to open as wide as possible by reducing the depth of field too much. The P mode was therefore not as practical and usable as with the 80D. For photos to be taken on the fly it may not be very effective and the eyepiece often does not allow you to effectively detect an inadequate depth of field. In combination with the 28-400 it has confirmed itself as an excellent travel camera that covers all needs. The loss of magnification compared to the 16-300 (i.e. 24-450 FF) is compensated for by better sharpness in almost all real-world situations. Obviously the FF has a greater weight than an APS-C, but at least as far as I'm concerned it's manageable even if at the limit (I wouldn't take anything heavier). Pre Burst and fast burst obviously generate a lot of files which makes the 24 megapixels suitable for those who make fairly long journeys allowing a good balance on the entire supply chain (SD, computer, physical storage, cloud storage). The battery life was disappointing, on a "long" day with the use of bursts, a bit of video and a "normal" use that does not care about energy saving with 2 batteries you get pulled at the end of the day. In the case of safari I think it is necessary to equip yourself with 3 or better 4 batteries. I am quite satisfied with the product and I believe that currently on the market there is no better system considering the combination lens / car for those who have to travel and do not want to carry more than one lens with them. |
 | sent on January 17, 2025 Pros: Great af, perfect ergonomics, very complete video modes Cons: Shutter speed limit with electronic shutter flash. Files a little too "digital" Opinion: A good camera, which does everything quite well without excelling in anything. Both raw and jpeg files are good but a little too "digital" (compared to d850, d780, d810). Let me explain: even working on lightroom, photoshop and more, the file remains a bit cold... impersonal. The limit to 1/60 second with the flash if I use an electronic shutter I find it too slow (the z9 seems to me to have it at 1/250) ... at least that's what I found. Excellent AF in all situations (even in the dark). On the video side very well (very complete and performing). Ultimately I would say good car but not excellent. |
 | sent on October 10, 2024 Pros: Autofocus speed, 8EV stabilizer, new processor, partially stacked sensor, excellent quality of raw and jpeg files, screen adjustable in all directions, solidity and tropicalization, fast burst, customization of functions, excellent EVF Cons: Small details such as: multiple shots not programmable via the self-timer function, pre-shooting only in JPEG. Opinion: New take, on launch offer, from a professional retailer, thanks to the excellent review that our Editor made on Juzaphoto and the praise of the Dpreview site, which gave the third edition of the Z6 a gold award. In both presentations of the new Nikon it was emphasized that the Z6III was not just another restyling, but a new product, with a new partially "stacked" sensor and a new processor (Expeed 7), capable of making this camera a real innovation in the Nikon ML scene. After a week of testing, I can confirm that this is the case: everything has improved compared to the Z6 and Z6II, especially from the point of view of autofocus speed and burst, for photos of wildlife, birds, action, sports. Stabilization up to 8 EV allows you to photograph in practically all light conditions and the quality of raw and jpeg files up to ISO 12800 is impeccable and still acceptable up to ISO 25600. The customization functions and innovative algorithms make the Z6III an extremely versatile camera for both the amateur photographer and the professional (who perhaps wants to combine it with one of the 2 flagships, which remain at the top of the Nikon kit). Excellent EVF. After an initial moment of disappointment, I realized, thanks to a post on a well-known American photo forum, that the energy saving function was activated in my camera. Once this function was deactivated, the EVF showed all its effectiveness, even better after some manual settings (+2 brightness, slightly warmer tones in the colors). Some digital noise remains in the viewfinder in low light conditions, but the end result in the photo taken is excellent: clean file with plenty of detail even in low light. Overall an amazing camera, to be studied well for the many functions added in the menu. Vote 10! |
| sent on August 07, 2024 Pros: Viewfinder, autofocus, haptic feedback, performance Cons: Articulated display, CF Opinion: I come from the Z6 and the transition was quite important because even if the megapixels and the resistance to high ISO have remained almost unchanged, the whole outline has been updated a lot. First of all, the AF is finally an AF that practically always works. Of course it is not infallible but we are light years ahead of the first series. The camera body then enlarged a little and my large hands were very happy. Among other things, the feeling of solidity that it transmits is really great. The performances, if we talk about gusts and everything else, are really high and I think they are more than enough for the amateur and decent for the professional. The articulated screen doesn't drive me crazy, I'm honest, I preferred the one of the first and second series only tilting even if in vertical photos with a very low camera obviously this new one gives a nice hand. The last thing that surprised me is the viewfinder. It's fantastic, really. I love to photograph looking into the viewfinder and here comes the desire to never take it off! I didn't like the CF slot, I would have preferred a double SD slot also because with the SD that make today the CF are never indispensable and I would have left them only in pro bodies such as Z8 and Z9. |
