Fractional pixel shifts were used in the Hubble Space Telescope project while taking the images in the so-called Hubble Deep Fields. I‘m proud of having „invented“ this technique for Hubble. I‘m eager to see it implemented on my brandnew Nikon Z8.
Very cool! I think the way they've implemented it relies on the new 8-stop IBIS system they've debuted in the ZF. They might be able to do it with the older system in the prior Z cameras, but I would not bet on it.
Thank you very much for carrying out extensive testing, documenting it and reporting it in detail. We sincerely appreciate your efforts, openness to information sharing, and patient and detailed guidance. Lastly, thank you very much for providing additional context in your video (Approaching The Scene 296).
The scotland and Seattle shots really demonstrate that you're getting more detail rather than just more resolution. I'm going to be interested in using this to photograph medium format slides and negatives.
Hudson love your channel , you explain things so clearly, Nikon just dropped firmware for the Z8 today!!!! Ive been excited checking every couple of days. Just got home from 2 week on maui.
When I first saw this, I was not that interested, since I don’t have a ZF. But, now the latest update to the Z8 has me paying attention. 180 MP is insane.
Thanks for this! I love the Zf and recently returned from a trip to Puerto Rico…such a great travel camera. However, I just purchased a refurb’d Z8 from Nikon and it is a wonderful beast! While I love the look of the Zf and its low-light capabilities, I wrestling with what camera makes more sense keeping, as I’m a semi-pro, coming from a Z7II (w/Z5 as backup). The Z8 is bigger and more utilitarian looking, but it seems to be the Swiss Army knife all of us Nikon lovers have been waiting for in mirrorless. Such a good problem to have with all the great stuff Nikon is offering!
I used pixel shift and got the most detailed pictures of the moon. I was amazed with the detail that I got and how easy it is to edit the pictures in post processing
I am so happy they added this to the Z8. I hope the Z7ii and Z6ii XSpeed sensors can handle this new feature. Would be awesome for the first and 2nd gen Z6/7s have this feature.
@@roybixby6135 all the brands implement it differently. To assume one brand's version applies to all is a bit presumptive. I was skeptical based on my experience with other brands and my lack of faith in NX studio but the Nikon implementation was quite a pleasant surprise.
Cool. Yes, I remember when I took the first night frames with the Z6 years ago (same exact sensor) being just blown away. 20,000 ISO is where I set the Auto ISO limit. Nuts.
Thanks for the information. Looks like Nikon just surpassed Sony in the Pixel Shift category. 1) Nikon has more options for shifting, 2) evidently there is meta data for the application to pick out which shots go with which combined images. 3) I believe the shots are taken faster on the Nikon.
Still far behind panasonic and olympus. Both do internal processing, in RAW, HANDHELD, with motion compensation. Panasonic do a better job at motion compensation vs olympus.
Great video. Thanks for going through pixel shift. A cool quick comparison would be comparing a pixel shift image to the same basic nef up-res’d in a program like Gigapixel.
Thanks Hudson for a once again very informative video, I’m a Z9 user and hoping that the FW2.0 for the Z8 comes to the Z9 hopefully with few additions 🙏
Hey Hudson, do have plans to do a tutorial on setting the Zf up for BIF? I'm curious how you would go about programming the buttons, since there are so few of them.
Thanks for an informative video. Near the beginning, you mention an Anker battery pack. Have you shared the details of this anywhere? I didn’t see it in the gear list for this video. Thanks!
It's on my links page with all the gear I reccomend: www.hudsonhenry.com/atslinks, but here is a direct link. Love this for all the Nikon bodies: amzn.to/49CCTTu
@@HudsonHenryPhotoThanks so much for the quick reply. I have that exact battery, but had always assumed that I need a "dummy" battery and a battery with the proper voltage output. The USB option is much friendlier, assuming I can figure PD and USB-C standards. Thanks again! :)
Thanks for this demonstration! It might be the video compression but I noticed some vertical banding in the PS shots not visible on the original 24mp shot ? Do you see that on your monitor ?
I am thinking of using this with the upcoming solar eclipse. Pros and cons? I'm also thinking that bracketing may be the best option. Thanks in advance.
Wondering how it would do in a astrophotography image? There you would have to use a longer exposure. Wish Nikon had placed a wired remote port in the Zf.
I hope they bring this to the Z8 in a firmware update. I use it for scanning film and having pixel shift can be a real help on larger formats for a nice clean scan.
I disagree strongly. Every time Nikon combines images in camera they give us a much lower quality jpeg (multiple exposure, hdr, etc). The way this is integrated, we get a raw result and all the base files are preserved to harness future advancements in the pixel shift processing software. Also, like focus shift shooting, combining all these raw images with this level of analysis takes a lot of processing horsepower. Much better suited to a fast computer with a ton of RAM. Even my Mac Studio Ultra with 128GB chews on 32 frame captures for 45 seconds or so. No, they did it the practical, intelligent way.
Thanks for the video. Have you seen the latest 2 videos from Russ and Loz’s TH-cam? They both had major issues with their Z8 / Z lens, and Nikon support has been poor. I was wondering what your experience has been with Nikon support and if you have any tips for them.
Never heard of those guys. I've had fabulous experience with Nikon repairs and never an issue at all with a body or lens I didn't drop. I've owned just about all of them.
@@HudsonHenryPhoto Very glad to hear that. So far, I’ve had no issues with my Nikon either. They are based in the UK so maybe that’s where the difference in support is coming from - or they just got unlucky. Thanks for the reply.
Anyone else have an issue with NX Studio and not loading, or loading incredibly slow, on a Windows 11 machine? I even updated to 1.6 and still the issue persists. Just wondering.
How does you guess how much of the image will be lost? would be handy of the monitor indicated where a final result will be so that you can be sure your composition is correct.
So I worked it out. I did mine with a Z8 and once merged in NX Studio then taken into Lightroom classic what happens is lightroom classic renders the image at the original standard file size hence cropping. Lightroom can handle those merged files if captured on a Z9 but not yet from a Z8. Same file name but something different and not yet working properly unless exported from NX Studio as a .tiff instead of a .nefx
LOVE my Zf and so Happy you did this video since I had no clue re Pixel Shift ... ? What's your thoughts on using Pixel Shift for Astro ie using it like a stacking process . As long as you maintain a shutter speed less than the movement of the stars would it work ????
It will work for foregrounds the way I do star photography. I prefer to shoot the foreground in the last bit of blue hour light and then shoot the stars on a tracker at 800 ISO. I would not use it for stars, no. Too much motion given the needed exposure times. You can see my technique in the intro and materials in this course: www.hudsonhenry.com/milkyway
@@HudsonHenryPhoto thanks 🙏 Love the tripod I got from you and appreciate all the tips ….getting my Z f astromodified so will see how it goes ! Best Art
absolutely not. Best used with ROCK SOLID support, faster shutter speeds and Zero motion. I've a video dropping today that might interest you a lot though... ;-)
I've got other videos reviewing and showing how to set up the Zf which cover the camera more comprehensively. This video's sole focus is pixel shift. Just search my channel for ZF.
Hudson, super info. What are your thoughts with using this with Astro Photography? would there be too much movement if you to use this taking images of nebulas for example?
I doubt it. I think it's likely linked to the insane new IBIS in the ZF which exceeds anything Nikon has put out before. That stabilization hardware is likely designed with this high level pixel shift in mind.
I have a Z8 and a Fuji GFX100S medium format which has pixel shift. I wouldn't worry about what you're missing. It's clever but really I don't think anyone needs it. On the Fuji I end up with a single photo that's 1.5Gb (that's not a typo, Gigabytes) in size. And sure I can see crazy detail. I mean I took a test photo of a vase of flowers and could see individual dust particles on the leaves...but it's unusable if there is just about any movement in frame. It takes ages to take and process and ultimately the Z8 is so outstanding as a camera I don't think it needs it. Personal opinion, others are available of course. I'm not worried the Z8 doesn't have this. It has everything it needs to be the best camera I've ever picked up.
@@dominiclester3232 Just updated mine and noted that too. I might compare it to the GFX pixel shift but I expect it'll still be a bit of a specialist thing I'll rarely use! I'll eat my words if it's a game changer though!
I would just like to see Nikon treat NX Studio a little more seriously. It's slow, crashes occasionally and on the spare side feature and function wise. Maybe having to accommodate features like pixel shift will force them to dedicate a little more attention to it.
I wouldn't count on it. Across the board, camera companies don't make the best editing software. Not in thier realm of expertise sadly... I'm just relieved the pixel shift only requires me to spend seconds in NX studio. It's the first thing it's had that keeps me from uninstalling it the very day I try a new version of it.
Great video! Thanks! Would it be possible to shoot the moon with the pixel shift or the movement of the moon, although slow, will mess everything up? cheers
Hey Hudson, love your videos. Recently i purchased the Zf and I'm finding it better than my Z6ii. Tried pixel shift today withe the latest versions of NX Studio and LR Classic. Took the photos ok, processed in NX Studio ok but importing them into LR i get a failure with a message in the picture, this file is damaged or unsupported. Tried Adobe help and i find it not very helpful, wondering if you have any suggestions for me? Gregg Webster, Australia
My only guess is that you might be using LR and not LR Classic. I honestly believe the only reason there is such a push to LR over LR Classic is to lock in cloud data subscriptions. Using local files feels bolted on and there is a huge lack fo features like the enhance panel that is still glaringly in LR Classic's favor alongside much more advanced organizing features. LR Classic supports the NEFX files out of the Zf perfectly for me on both Mac and PC.
Are you sure about the pixel-shift process there each pixel gets different colors? that would mean the RGGB bayer matrix filters are not directly attached to the camera sensor. Effectively making it a monochromatic sensor with a floating RGGB bayer matrix filter. Is this really how they made it?
No the sensor moves under the filter using the more advanced new IBIS system in the ZF. Filter stays put while sensor moves underneath is what I've read.
On any selected image in the library the keyboard numbers 6-9 give you most of the colors. Purple requires you to right click and select Purple from the Color Submenu right by rating. I use blue for panoramas, green for timelapse yellow for HDR, etc...
Pixel shift is great when you can get it shaper than a standard frame. with a steady enough tripod Its good for everything except wildlife, events, sports, wedding, landscape, family, street or macro ... 🦘
