People that take their camera out to lunch 😂 I love that you are always your silly self. Thank you for being a wonderful inspiration to me Omar 💚

[checksix_TC]

I just bought the Zfc just for the way it looks. It has no place in my Fujifilm system. But this little Nikon has a soul and its growing on me that I have started to aquire Nikkor Z lenses for it.

[razafiarisonmichael]

Your videos are the best, so funny and yet detailed and very honest unlike some others does ! Keep up the great work !

[photoreviewed-com]

Your reviews are a pleasure to watch, Omar. Absolutely fantastic, as the rest of the channel. Big fan, thumbs up! :D

[JeffreyHauser]

Keep rocking it Omar! Your videos crack me up! Best wishes!!

[nestorpool]

Omar, this is the first time watching your videos, man I have to say you have a pleasant sense of humor! I enjoyed this video until the end. Thanks a lot.

It comes in an all black version. Also all sorts of fun colors.

I just bought the Z fc and was a bit apprehensive due to so many referring to it as "plasticky". I was pleasantly surprised when I opened the box and discovered it's not as lightweight as I thought it would be. I love the camera. Great features and I like all the customization possibilities. It's my first mirrorless to add to my D500, D610, and D7100.

[ekofotoz]

Yay! I saw your post of this camera on insta and knew you were going to review it. I was on the fence with this camera but after seeing your fjui and nikon comparison I fell in love with the colors! This is my take to lunch camera. lol.

[KentuckyMan]

The Zfc looks so fun to use! If I shot Nikon, that would be the camera for me, no doubt!

[judeemclaughlin]

I've been comparing cameras for a basic carry - XE4 and zfc. Size is the big decision I am down to. The zfc has a minor lead because I own a z6ii.

[JoeLopez]

The Zed-film-camera is really growing on me. I was surprised how light the body is!

I’d be all over it if I didn’t already have three Fuji cameras. Then again, if we didn’t have Fujifilm, would the Zfc even exist?

[hazybrain]

Love your videos, always on point and entertaining, Warm Regards from Ireland !

[BabaGanooshOFS]

One of the features that I’ve come to live out of this camera that no one talks about is the ability to do Timelapse videos. Yes, time lapse videos—not interval shooting. I love that the camera automatically compiles the photos and processes them into a video.

The things I hate about it: limited lens environment and no aperture rings on the lens. Yes, you can use full frame z lens or use the F mount lens, but that puts a huge lens on a compact camera, which defeats the purpose of choosing this camera.

[dogsbyfire]

I’ve been reading camera reviews since the 80s. You are in the top-tier! Entertaining and informative, like good photography. New subscriber. Thanks!

[PhiggysDOTcom]

I would highly recommend purchasing the Small Rig grip for this Zfc body it improve the handling and grip of this camera and is made to the highest standard

[OG.Mikentosh]

Only speaking as one who bleeds Nikkon, the Picture Control settings DO affect the RAW and can even be changed in the NX Studio RAW editor as can one customize and load them into the camera.

[steviejsmall]

Nice impressions Omar! Subbed a few months ago, first time commenting. Love the way you do your videos, like talking to a friend. Keep up the great work and hope Nikon sends you a Z 9.

I have the Z fc, Z 6II and Z 9 and love them all. Will be curious to hear your Z 9 impressions as it probably is overkill for what you photograph but I’m confident you’ll have lots of interesting things to share about it after some hands on!

[JasonLorette]

I really hope they develop a full frame version of this. I wouldn’t mind one of these though for those quick run around town days. 😎📸

[waawaaweewaa]

I'd be tempted to purchase this camera if it had a full frame sensor. The problem with nikon crop sensors is that they don't have a lineup of tiny super wide lenses to accompany them like fuji does with its crop sensor cameras.
