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! |
