Nikon Z6 vs Nikon Z7 Video Specs: Hands-on

The Nikon Z6 and Nikon Z7 cameras are Nikon's first full frame mirrorless cameras, with a totally new Z mount and new S series line of lenses. The 45MP Nikon Z7 is available now and the 24MP Z6 is set to be released late November 2018.

do you know if the z6 does full sensor readout for it's 1080 video, or just when recording to 4k..?

Thank you for this full breakdown, I love it.

Great overview. I agree the Z6 is a great video camera. Can[t wait to get mine.

Why isn't there a side by side photo, and video comparison ? I don't know why there are so many reviews without this showing.

[mrrolandlawrence]

did you try the z6 as the video just shows a camera body doing focus tests? kai went though the limitations of the focus system on the z7. will that be the same for the z6?

[mbnyus]

Fantastic review and explanation of the features of this camera. Thank you.

When is the next Japan Camera Show. Maybe a new release going then.

Nice video, I like your narration it isn't hyperbolic. I have preordered the Z6 I currently use the D850 and that camera just preforms so I thought adding the Z6 for to capture video more easily and for more casual shooting. I've been waiting for what seems like years for Nikon to give us a mirrorless option., finally they do and it looks like a winner. I like 45mp but your right its taxing to computer systems and in my opinion it can be overkill in many situations.

Z6 on order, a great video discussing some of the specs and what to expect out of the Z series.

Thanks for video. I'm thinking about going back to Nikon from Sony. I'm a little surprised by the price of 600€ for a 50mm 1.8. is it a cash grab or an exceptional lens?

[sannojohasshu]

Thank you. I'm going to get the Z6 based on your assessment.

[OhAlone]

I have heard They have USB charge.

Can they charge while video record ?

If I was shooting 1080 video, with both the Z6 and Z7, is the low light capabilities going to be similar?

Hi could you tell me what it means when a client asks to add simple text and branding to a

Im so confused at what camera to upgrade to lol. I havent moved from my oly em1 but i know i need to get with the new tech. Should i get this over the eos R ?

[Themindofreyrey]

Why would they release the Z7 if the ISO and continuous shooting is better on the Z6, battery only last 300 shots, and the camera only has 1 slot of SD card? It seems like the is the intro before release the next monster version. Although it looks like the mirrorless camera are the future, for now I'll stick with my D850.

I am a Nikon user, love Nikon. Just like you my first Nikon was D7000, after that I had a lot more Nikons coming and going like used D60, D5100, D3300, D7100, D750, D800 and D850. As a Wedding photographer and videographer I really need a hybrid camera and I was holding off from not jumping ship completely to Sony and waited for Nikon's mirrorless camera. I have pre-ordered the Z6 even before I heard about the full specs, yes I was that eager and excited, but ONE memory card, sorry its just unacceptable, I need backup for my work and one card is not going to cut it. Will not get the Z6, but I will also not go fully to Sony, I still believe in Nikon and I will hold out to Nikon's Gen II with the hope they will put 2 card slots in that body, till then I will continue to use my DSLR's for photo and Sony's for video work. But that's the last chance, next gen bodies need to have better AF and 2 card slots, if not I will sadly move fully to Sony. Last chance Nikon!!!

No fully articulated screen? 😖
C'mon Nikon, it's 2018! 😤

Nikon respectfully requests that you refer to the series as the "Z" series, not "Zed", I know it's a Canadian thing, but Please respect the manufacturer's wishes. Nice review, thanks.
