Nikon, we want N-Log recording internally! You can do it. Just release a firmware update with it. Make Nikon greater without an Atomos Recorder!
Yes! Why this is not possible? I have the Z7II and i cant record internally!
Yes, absolutely..!!
If iPhone 12 can do it, I think Nikon should be able to too. Though I will give them credit for creating a competitive camera in such a short time for mirrorless video capture.
@@2ndEarth Iphone's cannot record in LOG
@@dreamplace7469 iPhone 13 pro with filmic Pro CAN record 10 bit log
I genuinely believe that if Nikon allows NLog internal, then sales will fly through the roof. I mean the color science is amazing already, why are they holding back so much?
This is because of a nonsense patent on internal raw recording from Red Cinema Cameras.
@@ModernAtomX Well seeing that the NEW Panasonic S5II is out at such an affordable price with finally Amazing autofocus and No signes of Nikon Trying to do anything for it's customers, we all know it's Game Over for Nikon and video. Guess it's time to jump ship cuz not everyone is gonna buy the Z9 just to have access to internal NLog.
@@souljah9e I mean if you're gonna jump ship and spend nearly 8 thousand on a new Sony or Canon with literally just one lens, why wouldnt you invest that in a Z9? Nikon has to build out their prosumer lineup, but for professionals, the Z9 is an absolute monster. Shooting 4k 120 in 10 bit, and being able to literally shoot 8.3k 12 bit RAW, internally is insaaaane
@@ModernAtomX And Nikon just bought Red, hurrah!
I already have Nikon z6, but i just purchased Ninja v! This video is a life saver for me! It guided me step my step i both my z6 and Ninja v.
Is the quality of n log much beter? And is the live view of ninja v ok?
@@sottosopra4769 yes I just bought a ninja and the detail is amazing
I'll buy this camera when it will support internal Nlog . I don't want to buy Atomos , as i already have three different external monitors and i just need recording Nlog on internal card
Unbelievable that in year 2020 there is no option to record N-log internal. That’s real sad and for many a good reason not to buy a Nikon. So what’s the problem to implement N-Log?
Knowing Nikon, it's probably an engineering issue, such as heat. They are very conservative on features, but rock solid on reliability.
z6 is a waste of money..from N-LOG - EYE DETECTION! They need the help of ninja v to work properly.. sad... @nikonasia
When internal Nlog?
The whole thing with N-Log is to reduce highlights and boost shadows. There are custom profiles available that do that just as well and record internally. I use one called J-log. It works well. However, I actually shoot everything with the flat profile with my metering set to matrix highlight, which prevents blowing out highlights. For the foreseeable future, the output will be in rec.709, which is 8-bit (we will only get to rec.2020 after every component in the system, including cameras, monitors, and TV sets, is replaced.) So, shooting in 10-bit is a waste of both time and money for everything except Hollywood-level projects. The biggest time and money sink is post production. The best way to reduce those costs is to shoot in the correct profile at the correct white balance at correct exposure with good lighting and sound. If the flat profile doesn't work for a particular scene, you can use one of the built-in profiles, or create your own using Nikon's free utility. Nikon's default color science right out of the camera is superior to all others and better than anything 95% of us can come up with shooting in Pro Res Raw or N-log and applying LUT's from unknown sources or rolling your own color configuration.
I thought a huge part of independent filmmaking (not always Hollywood-level) is the concept of molding your image to fit a certain mood appropriate to a scene. Recording reality as is in optimal lighting with a color science engineered by a third party entity hardly fits my needs for this camera, and I would assume other videographers who want something more than family photos and videos.
You know nothing, John Snow...
Disagree. Picture profiles with internal recording have nothing to compare with N-Log. The so called "J-Log" is a creepy custom profil where everything is pushed to excessive negative values. Absolutely no interest. Keeping the default flat profile is by far good enough Ok Nikon has a stunning color science, but, please, don't mix TH-camr picture profile with ProRes Raw... It's 2 different things that can't be compared...
N-log internal issues a must. Flat is just not enough. This is a B cam for my C300 III and internal log would make it easy to match
Hi John, thanks for reaching out. The Z 9 has an internal N-Log for consideration. Do let us know if you need help with anything else!
This is an excellent video for both camera and Ninja settings.
It would be REALLY nice if you made a similar HowTo video for a Z8.
I think it’s the same tbjng
internal N-Log please!
For nikon z62 feature in nlog
I don't know what the hell the people at Nikon are thinking, because the inability of its cameras to shoot LOG without a recorder means unnecessary weight and expense.
Can we do 8 bit n log recording internally ? Without ninja?
yes but you won't get the 10 bit detail but the average person can't tell
@@gocanes9881 please tell me how??
Please...
@@gocanes9881 bits is colorspace information. Its more about what a colorist/editor can do with higher bit footage than lower bit.
And the d600 for when they release a firmware that has a live histogram on the video and a video focus on the screen. Help us that you have currently had the d600 for 7 years and get out of the problem that it generated at work ..
Nikon!! Z6ii sahibiyim. yüksek hızlara sahip Cf Express B kartımda var, çift işlemciye sahip makine bu, ancak dahili kayıt yapamıyorum. Bu büyük bir eksikliik. Umarım kısa bir süre içinde güncelleme yaparak dahili kayıt özelliğini getirirsiniz. Aksi takdirde rakip markalara geçen bir çok kullanıcı olacak.
Hi there, to better assist you, could you kindly raise your query in English please?
I'm a Nikon Z6 ii user, although I don't use a CfExpressB card for high speed recording and it has a Dual processor, I can't record 10 bit internally and this is a big shortcoming for users. I hope you bring this feature with a firmware update soon. Otherwise, this will remain a big shortcoming for us Nikon users.
Hi there, thanks for your message. Please to follow your local Nikon Facebook and Instagram pages to stay up to date with the latest information and updates!
So, we spend 1500 eur for a Z6 and to record in nlog we need an extra 500eur for atomos ninja v? Is it a joke?
Even worse, here in Sweden, the Atomos cost about 700eur + you need battery and maybe a SSD..My wallet is crying
exactly! as i said, z6 is a waste of money..from N-LOG - EYE DETECTION!
We buy zf no need all that sh’t would be much better
At Sony no need for external box, it's really anything
is it possible to edit Nlog 10 bit with adobe premiere pro cc?
Yes, it is.
Hi there, sorry for the delay in reply. The N-Log file from Nikon is compatible in Adobe Premiere Pro. We have the matching N-Log LUT file which can be downloaded from the Download Centre here: nikn.ly/DownloadCentre
Hello. for nikon Z5 cane you n \ z log?
Hi Nazaroff, thank you for your enquiry, the N-Log is not supported by the Z 5. Hope this helps!
@@Nikonasia thank you
If we dont want codec.prores hq..any other options??
dont heavy in Z30 ?
Hi @TruePabloEscobar, thanks for reaching out, unfortunately as of now, the Nikon Z 30 does not have NLog and you would need the Atomos Recorder. Hope this helps!
@@Nikonasia TKS, i will use the profile more dessaturated, and with some tweeks. But tks Btw 🙂
Why isn't this internal? Are you really telling us you cant do what a Panasonic gh5s can do?
After following the instructions I still can’t turn on nlog. Get an error saying this option is not available at current settings or in the cameras current state.
Hi Alex, can you please tell us a little bit more about the issue, so we can identify the problem and assist you? Also, can you please tell us which city/ town you are located? Please to send us an email at discuss@nikon-asia.com and we look forward to hearing from you soon!
is it possible to edit Nlog 10 bit with edius 9 ?
Hi there, thanks for reaching out and sorry for the delay in reply. The 10-bit N-Log is compatible and can be processed using Grass Valley EDIUS Pro 9 (9.4 or newer). We hope this helps!
Would it be possible to do firmfare update for D7500 to enable 10bit recording for HDMI output since Z-series got now N-log? Awesome camera else, but missing 10bit.
Can it at least shoot 8-bit N-Log internally? If so, how?
Hi Time Capsule Foto, thank you for your message!
The Z 9 is able to shoot 10-bit N-Log internally.
Hope this answers your question!
Is it only working with a Ninja V or can I use a Shinobi to record in N-log ?
Hi @user-si8su6bq8q, thank you for reaching out to us, could I trouble you to share which camera model you are using so that we may better assist you? Thank you
@@Nikonasia I've a Nikon z6II !
I HAVE THE Z8...CAN I SHOOT N-RAW ON ATOMONS NINVA V?
Hi Dmitriy Larin, N-RAW or ProRes RAW allows in-camera recording only. Hope this helps
So basically... is not possible to N-Log recording. No wonder why everyone is moving to Sony
nikon z50 ???
Hi Minesh thank you for your message. The N-Log is not supported by the Z 50. Please follow your local Nikon Facebook and Instagram pages to stay up to date with the latest information and updates. Hope this helps!
Nlog for nikon z50?
Hi Prasad, thanks for your message and sorry for the delay in reply. Currently, only the NikonZ 7II, Z 6II, Z 7 and Z 6 mirrorless cameras and the D780 DSLR camera are capable of recording N-Log footages when using a compatible digital recorder that supports 10-bit video. Please to follow your local Nikon Facebook and Instagram pages to stay up to date with the latest information and updates. Have a good day!
What is the cost of z- log
Hi Indro Photography, May we check which camera model you are inquiring about?
@@Nikonasia yes I have Nikon z6
@@wedlia Hi Indo Photography, please visit this link for more information: www.nikon-asia.com/support/raw-video-output-upgrade
The fact you guys charge that much for the camera, to then limit the user, forcing them to buy an external piece in order to unlock this is quite a joke.
I was new to videography and photography and didn't know about N-log when I bought my Z6ii.
Had I known all the stuff you guys are lacking for N-log and having to buy hundreds of dollars worth of stuff and the hassle of mounting an external monitor and adding bulk to a "rig" I'd have just gone with Canon or Sony or any other brand.
Another reason to get rid of Nikon. Sony etc can do that without 1000€ attachments
