3:05 „Grand Central Station is amazing, beautiful piece of art” - still haven't been in New York yet, but I know they had even more amazing beautiful piece of art, if you mean stations: the New York Penn Station, built in 1911. Of course I know that amazing building just from the old photos because guess what? These barbarians have torn it down in 1963. It's like to decide to demolish Notre Dame to me, or to demolish Parthenon.

„Z6II - Is It Worth It In 2023?” - no offense, but what a stupid question. Nikon D90 is „worth it in 2023-24” and can be used to do street photography in New York, why not. Let alone Z6 II.

Thank you very much for your great shares and experience.

All the letters and numbers are laser etched the Japanese dont mess around when it comes to build quality even if they offshore to taiwan manufacturing tolerance and qc are still top notch

Hey. Thanks for your review. 😊😊 I would love to buy a 24-70 lens 2.8 but I'm not sure which brand should I get. Tamron SP 24-70mm f 2.8 Di VC USD or AF-S 24-70mm f/2.8 G ED. Please help me to decide. I will buy one of them used because it's too much for me to get a new one❤

Hi can you change the metering zone in Video mode - like spot metering vs partial or even evaluative. How about setting a max ISO setting in video to say not to go over ISO 6400.Can you shoot NLOG in 4K 422 10bit to SD card. Can you shoot 4k DCI format. I'm looking to switch from Canon R6Mk2 to Nikon ZF since Nikon lens options are more available and cost less overall. I just want a ZF for walk around photos and family videos and to enjoy some recent Nikon F1.4 lenses as a hobbyist. I will keep my second Canon body the R5 with the RF lenses when I'm shooting landscape and sports or when I need better video like 8K raw. Thank you.

I have been considering selling my Z7ii which I use for weddings and events for the Zf. I know the issues of autofocus challenges with DJ lights: I just shot a wedding on Friday night. The hit rate was not perfect, but I came away with ample usable shots. On the dance floor, I don’t worry as much if some are missed (in contrast to must-have “first kiss” etc.). Even so, I suspect the Zf would do better overall than Z7ii and I feel 24 mpx would be better.

Articulating screens are not only for vloggers. They are meant to use when shooting portrait orientation low to the ground or up in the air. And they can close, which is better for the LCD in the long run.

I like the chrome shutter button better than the red shutter button

why do people say zed instead of z?

The gold button is the best

My nikon z9 backup battery is only used if I shoot from 6am to 10pm and I need to shoot again the next day

From what I'd heard, a 70-200 f/2.8 at 120mm or longer would have too shallow DOF to use from the floor of a small court game like basketball, so I assumed that faster lenses would give a DOF that is challenging to nail focus on the subject with. A f/1.2 lens sounded insane! However, with the shorter focal lengths it makes sense. I've just put the numbers into DOF and FOV calculators and I see a reassuring 0.7m DOF and a 3m wide image with an 85mm f/1.8 at 7m (where @justincarrington4157 recommends); and likewise 0.68m DOF and 2.9m width with 50 f/1.8 at 4m (the 40.5mm f/1.2 is similar), which feel very workable. Going to give this a go at the next handball match I shoot.

This review helps decide me to get or not the APS-C 75mm f1,2 for the same Camera like yours. Or do you have any other experience with the lens that might change my mind not to get the dream lens I want to have?!! Thanks for the feedback. Cheers 🍻

They make a throwback camera like this, but throwback lenses aren't compatible due to no screw drive on the adaptors. There are no presets either, which is a really pathetic omission.

You can actually get away with pure electronic silent shutter with minimal jello... I've been using this setting for almost a year now, preserves the mechanical shutter massively

Only rabid Fuji fanboys are giving the ZF bad reviews

One word: Terrific!! Thanks so much for taking the considerable time to share your expertise. Can't tell you how much it helps to make decisions on the camera.

random comments to help the algo. Goodluck on your YT journey 🤙🏿

Cameras should be held by the lens with your left hand. Index and thumb cupping your lens. This supports the lens, lens mount, high stability, and prevents hand fatigue. I personally liked this method b/c it made resting the camera on my chest or stomach an option while maintaining blood flow in my arm. I still had full use of my right hand. As someone who owned the Df, this was the best way to handle a camera for me without a pistol grip. Adding a grip will add more stability, so definitely get one if you can.

Would you recommend buying a z6ii for 2025? You might think that it is a stupid question but I am a z50 user and I really want to go to a FF camera that it is capable to do great video too, but I really don't like the ZF grip, and Z6iii is too expensive for me. What do you think? Or maybe wait for Z5ii. Sorry for my english, I'm argentinian jajaj

omg I really do not want that ZF, but the 10 bit video it´s making me consider it. aaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Not clear if you were saying the zf was better at low light or the z9; 24 mp vs 48 mp and bigger megapixel re image or noise quality.

У меня Zf основная камера в паре с Nikon 24-120 4.0.

this is my dream camera, now i have z5 which i love all the images, except lowlight AF which i dont feel safe when shooting indoor lowlight scenes wkwk, z6ii AF also dont convince me to own that camera because the AF just slightly better than z5, but i hear and i see alot good review about this ZF especially about the AF,, but i dont like the ergonomic wkwk,,

Does ZF not have Memory Recall Mode bother you? I use that feature a lot

Use it as my 2nd camera for weddings all the time! No, not the best for low-light focus but still amazing and beautiful colors.

The ZF is the best money I have ever spent

Another example of the downside of the fully articulating screen on the photography side. Zf deserves a tilt screen IMO, as a photo-first camera. Flippy screen makes sense on the Z6III to be fair, even though it's not my preference. Age-old debate I suppose. Regardless, I absolutely love the Zf, it's amazing. Great video as always!

Great Video !!! I shot a full wedding on a Fuji XT3 and now I have a Nikon ZF and this camera is way better !!! Also the 40mm F2 SE is also a great Lens for the ZF , very similar image quality to the 28mm SE. If your worried about a zoom lens being top heavy , I highly suggest the Tamron 28-75 2.8 G2 as a alternative . I have been able to get some fantastic images out of this lens. I even tested it against the 50mm 1.8 and you could not tell the difference without really pixel peeping . Your client wont be able to tell !!! Oh it has this pop that i truly love . Look at the Videos on TH-cam they can explain it way better than me .

Your tone and pacing are spot on-it makes for a super relaxing, enjoyable listen. And no background music-bravo!

What’s the model of Nanak case trolley?

I always recommend at some point getting three bodies so there is a back up too your backup. So far I've heard of three stories of two cameras breaking down at weddings. I know its super rare but why take the chance.

Isn't this Viltrox 27mm lens APS-C? How does it look in full frame?

Thank you well done.

Thanks for sharing, nice to see what kit you use and your explanations. Can I ask what power bank you are using for your Z9?

Your videos have great content and quaility!! 👏

Good to see that you use the 50/1.8 and 85/1.8; I love those lenses. You really do not need the 1.2 versions; they are so much bigger and heavier. They are great, but these 1.8 version deliver enough for most situations.

Nice I enjoyed this video, I have the Zf too, and z8 I allso have that viltrox lens too,but it’s for my Fuji crop and I love that lens.

The 24-70 mm to full frame become 105?????............

Great video thank you for sharing

Never ever leave home without the 70-200.

Please suggest a few lenses for zf for sports , specially football

Great video. Your photos are simply amazing. Your clients are definitely getting their money's worth!

great content 🔥🔥

Does your Nanuk scrape and scratch really bad when you roll it on gravel? I know it’s just a case but the pelican scratches easily and makes for a bunch of sharp unpleasant edges

If you are beginner photographer, why would you have this camera?
