Nikon D750 VS Nikon Z6II - DSLR vs Mirrorless - Image Quality Test

[@UweRoclawski]

D750 still in everyday use. No need to upgrade until I can get a cheap used Z6ii.

[@theCameraVille]

The D750 cult is real~!

[@elboogie2324]

I didn't know there was a D750 cult. I just sold mine after a year of using it. I loved it. But I just got the Z6II literally today, and I'm happy with it. The D750 is a beast though. I just recommended it to someone.

D750 was my first. I then got the Z6 and quickly upgraded to the Z6ii. Love the low light capabilities of both cameras.

[@theCameraVille]

Nice~! I agree. I appreciate the fact I can push out the shadows and retain the colors. I didnt even notice how good it was until these 2 Dslr I reviewed ( D750, D810). Cheers~!

[@deanjelcic9299]

The only thing that I would chose a mirrorless over a dslr is electronic shutter…. It is quite a feature. Plus Z lenses gives you that sharpness that dslr just doesn’t deliver somehow…. If you have a d750 dont sell it. Its a gem. But if you need to sell it to buy mirrorless by all means do it. 😁

[@elboogie2324]

​@@deanjelcic9299that's what I did. I only sold mine to upgrade to mirrorless.😊

[@Hexlord]

Thanks for the comparison. Decided to get a D750 as there are quite a bit of hidden cost involved (CF express card to run dual slots and the FTZ adapter). Also at the current pricing of 1 Z6 II I can get 2 D750 for the price of 1 Z6 II + the above mentioned stuff.

[@theCameraVille]

Not a problem! Im glad you found it informative.

[@trinijerson]

I have both a D750 and a Z6ii. The z6ii is just a league of it own. Planning to sell my d750 and get either another z6ii or z5. The eye af is just a gamechanger for me!

[@tourinojacks5844]

Love this review! You got right down to the point and that's what we are looking for when we're looking at comparison videos. Your work is much appreciated here my friend!

[@theCameraVille]

Appreciated~! Yea it takes a lot of time to work on these videos. Hopefully my presentation gets better as we do more. Thank you for the support!

[@DarthPrime10]

Good comparison video of the two camera bodies. The D750, in my opinion, is still a very popular camera(even stepping into 2022); hence the new/used market cost. I have the D780 and I like that it carries some mirrorless features of the Z6. Would you consider making a comparison video of the Nikon D780 and Z6 II?

[@theCameraVille]

There will be future comparison and that will be one of them. I will also be doing D850,Z5 and Z6. I will throw on the D780.

[@MaryWenPhotography]

Thanks for the video! I have a D750 and needed a 2nd body, bought the Z6ii. I found myself leaning towards the Z6ii for weddings because it performed faster, but am still very happy with both given that 6 year difference.

[@theCameraVille]

Oh yea, the eye tracking is crazy nice on the mirrorless. Dslr , longer battery life and handles nice. I have about 2 dslr. I cant let them go just yet~!

[@TofuCate]

Did you notice any difference when using the F mount lenses on the Z6ii? Or did you buy native z lenses for it?

[@aerozg]

I own a D750, got it back in 2018 and it was my first camera. Got it for astrophotography, and slowly started doing landscape and family photos. I've accumulated some decent glass as well. I would love to upgrade, but i'm not in a hurry because i'm just a hobbyist. Waiting for the things to unravel with the Z9 and maybe some of the new technology trickles down into new Z bodies (Z8?). Will probably wait for Z6III or something. Cheers.

[@theCameraVille]

Yup, I am ready for some of that trickle down magic. Once they fix t he black out and lag, I will be no more dslr. I just have 1 left.

[@StriderGTS]

I'm considering this exact upgrade right now so I'm glad this video exists! I've been told that the autofocus on the Z6ii is lacking though? I hope they come out with a Z6iii soon.

[@theCameraVille]

If you get on instagram, you can see z6ii beats out the Z9. Also look for Z6ii autofocus test in my channel vs Canon r6. You will see.

[@markshirley01]

Still using me D750 for both stills and video. Its just so easy to use and the battery lasts forever. I actually like the flat profile 1080p it looks filmic for online content creation.

[@theCameraVille]

Its still a popular system as of today. Its on backorder which is crazy to see. I remember when it was first launch, it was $2300. Wild how times has change.

[@OrestisRovakis]

This test could be really useful if you got the testing more close to real life usage. With a mood to help you get better tests in the future, I would go test the raising exposure or even better raise shadows and lower highlights on the first images from the forest. There we could see how good shadows get bright and usable. On the test for high iso i would do that with an image of a living room instead of a white statue in front of white bg which helps hide the start of artifacts in iso800. A scene of low light in a living room would show immediately the benefits of the new sensor, if there are any. After all your tests I got the information that new sensor is good when you want to raise 5 steps an image underexposed which is something you never do really. I hope i dont upset you much, I just got the time to write these so maybe I can help a bit. I am now going to change maybe to z6 II after 5 years of working with d750 and more than 150K mostly studio images.

[@ORW081994]

Nikon won't be happy about it: for 95% of 750 users it is not worth to go for a z6 II !

[@jtes1442]

That’s not true . The Z6 and Z6II are clear improvements to the excellent D750 . It’s time to let it go brother .

[@deanjelcic9299]

Great photographers use they gear... Bad photographers are buying new gear… Most amazing and famous shots in the world were made before 50 years or more… Say, was the gear bad then? If a D750 was great 10 years ago, its just the same great today. World hasn’t changed, sky is still blue, birds have wings, mountains are tall… Marketing changed 😜 You need the latest, If not, you are left out 😉

I am a D750 shooter. Do a lot of night shots. Yes the D 750 does exhibit some purle tone. Easily fixed with software. Not an issue.

[@theCameraVille]

Also D750 is also discontinued and soon wont be serviceable by Nikon. Will need to go to a 3rd party that will charge normally 20% more than usual. That is if they have enough parts to fix the unit. Good luck. I had to sell off my D4 and D800 because they wont repair it no longer. Good luck.

Thanks for the comparison, I can say that the d610 has a slightly better sensor than the d750, there is no purple in the processing when raising the exposure by 5 stops.

[@stjepanjina]

@@castieldiallo2945 Well I'm sure, especially when processing photos! The d750 is generally a better camera but the sensor is a bit worse!

[@carlmcneill1139]

This was a good comparison for the sensor but there's a lot more to the z6 II than just the sensor. I had a d750 until it had an accident. I upgraded to the z6 II at the first of the year. The focus is so much better on the z6 II. I hardly miss any shots. No more focus and recompose. It's also a great camera for astrophotography. The EVF blackout is annoying but maybe it can be fixed with a firmware update? The battery life is fine so that's not much of an issue. Even if you only used a single focus point, the fact that you have the whole screen instead of the middle of the screen to move the focus point around, makes the z6 II a better choice. You didn't even bring up the lenses. One of the advantages of the z mount is that it allows them to design the lenses better. You get sharper corners with the z glass than the older f glass. There's very little focus breathing. This is really big if you use it for video or if you focus stack your images. The advantages of the z6 II are greater than that of the d750. There will be more firmware updates that will take this camera to higher levels.

[@theCameraVille]

Focus recompose ! I havent done that in a long time. We might be spoiled haha. Astrophotography will greatly benefit from the BSI. I mentioned about the blackout in my other videos ( some of the die hard fans dislike it when I talk about the black out.) but if they can fix the black out, I will sell my D500 away . I think around 8:38 I briefly touch on the Z glass. I dont have a full catalog just yet on the Z lens. I think once I hit over 10 videos of Z glass, I can really pull that point out more. They are sharp so far but pricy but used market not so bad now than before.

[@carlmcneill1139]

@@theCameraVille imagine if they make a baby z9 in aspc to replace the d500. It wouldn't have the 8k video and maybe not even 30 fps but 20 fps would be fine. I don't even need a camera like that but I would probably buy it.

[@fanzzzi]

What about focusing in dark places like clubs, or (wedding) parties? I still use my d750 with focus assist light from on camera flash with no problems. I'm considering the upgrade from d750, but I'm worried about focus.

[@carlmcneill1139]

@@fanzzzi the focus in low light is supposed to be better with the z6 II but I haven't had much chance to use it. Hudson Henry has a video on how well the z6 II and z7 II perform in low light for astrophotography. He said you can hand hold focus on a bright star or planet using the auto focus. But you have to have the settings right for that. Event and wedding photography shouldn't be that dark.

[@theCameraVille]

@@fanzzzi That is a loaded question since it all depends on your rig. Are you using Z mount lenses or Dslr mount lenses on to the Z6II. Varies.

[@tonyp1340]

Great simple factual and to the points. Don't know why I watched this as am a happy long time user of D750 and at 77 years of age the camera may just see me thru 😀, but good to see it seems to perform, with its own quirks, in the the same race as more modern technology. As committed to glass as I am it would be an expensive job for me to change. But nonetheless enjoyed your approach to the comparison, one of the best 👍

The down side currently is that the d750 is going to hit that 10 year mark and its a system that's been discontinued. They will soon cut off the service and repair on that model as they did to my D800, D70s, and D4. They wont repair them anymore. That is the long road ahead so be aware of this.

[@stratonarrow]

@@theCameraVille true, and I appreciate the reply! Not super worried. Just because Nikon won't service it doesn't mean that others won't.

[@theCameraVille]

@@stratonarrow They will throw that lips service “ well its a hard to get part , and thats why it cost more than Nikon use to charge” This is if they still make that part which is also another maybe. I been through that a few times. Rollercoaster. You end up having to ship it to some international house because they have the part you need.

[@kahotamph]

I have the d750 and am considering whether it's worth upgrading to the z6ii for videos. One thing that worries me is the compatibility of flash. I have the sb800 and sb600 and like to use the wireless flash trigger built-in to the d750. It seems like with z6ii we'll have to get a tonne of accessories

[@theCameraVille]

I would wait for the Z6iii. That might be the most robust version of the Z6 models. Should be announced pretty soon. My guess would be in May.

[@VitoUno]

Would love to see a Nikon D750 VS Nikon Z6III as I'm about to finally drop my d750 and switch but that dynamic range problem has me worried.

I dont currently own the Z6iii for this issue. Even my R5iii has a lot of issue with the DR. Its a drag. Dont think its worth it because your losing DR and color science

[@hdrsmit]

to go mirrorless with the Z6, if you compare weights for shooting f mount lenses on the Z6 you of course will need the adapter. how much weight does that than add to the weight comparisons ??

[@adrianvanleeuwen]

Raising shadows with maintaining better color than D750, makes the Z6ii images look better and easier to work with. Image detail is about the same. The BSI sensor of Z6ii, which also there is a BSI in the new hybrid D780 (sensor of Z6), this BSI sensor is a bit brighter and retains better color and maybe more detail when raising shadows so better for post production. Thank you for showing us and proving the better image quality of a BSI sensor. Those Z lenses a lot of people are staying are very sharp.

Yup ! No problem Adrian. I learned something myself when doing the test. Very interesting. The Z is very sharp. I will do more reviews on the Z lenses down the road.

[@AaronAubreyPhoto]

Interesting 6:47 you show the z6ii maintaining color accuracy, while the 750 goes purple.. Meanwhile in your Z7II vs Z6II video, it shows the 6 going purple while the 7 keeps color accuracy. Just a suggestion for these dynamic range tests. It would be much more 'real world' to show you showing shots underexposed by 1/2/3 stops (and then brightening w exposure slider to get proper exposure) You could also do a run down of overexposure and either pulling down exp slider, or pulling down 'highlights' or 'whites' The whole "let's take a nearly black frame and increase the exposure by 5 stops" is basically a useless test for 99% of photographers. I'm a professional and I really wanted to see what it was like when you slightly adjusted files to show DR.. not increasing exposure by 5 stops.. Other than that.. your vids are pretty good!!

[@theCameraVille]

Oh yea I will include that in the video on the over exposing portion. That will be interesting to see in future videos. Thanks for the heads up ~! Through out the journey in making these videos, I noticed folks want to see the ultimate conclusion just to keep their attention tuned in. I used to make incremental adjustment and folks would tune out and also the video gets fairly long. I'm slowly crafting each video accordingly so I will take your suggestions no prob~! As for the Z6 vs Z7, I had to push it to a point where something breaks in the shadow. To some maybe pointless to others that's what they want to see right off the bat. When I used to do Pentax reviews, my videos per comparison was 40 mins long , 3 video for 1 test LOL. thanks for your input cheers~!

[@AaronAubreyPhoto]

@@theCameraVille And I hope you know I'm not being negative, you've got some good content and I know it takes a lot of time to do it right. I hear you, it can be a tough line to walk between keeping it short, and keeping it detailed. I brought up my thoughts, because I do think most people that will come to your videos, are people who will want to see the true differences between the cameras in real world situations!! Another reason I bring up the highlights/shadows sliders tests is this.. My first pro camera was a D700. Beautiful files, snappy AF.. It was great for highlight recovery..not so much for shadows.. then I went to a D810 and it was the complete opposite.. so it slightly changed the way I shot from there on out.

The D750 is a very good camera but the Z6 /Z6II are clear improvements and handle better . The lag on the Z6II is minimal and has a higher shutter speed limit than the D750.

The biggest improvement of the Z system vs the glorious Nikon DSLRs does not come from advancements in sensor technology, but rather from the new flange which allowed Nikon to design superior lenses, compared to their F mount counterparts. Therefore IMHO it does not make sense using an adapted 50 1.8G on the Z6ii. It would have been interesting to see the difference with a Z50 1.8S, which is said to be a vast improvement compared to G version, mounted on the mirrorless so that we could appreciate the differences between the two systems.

I can also change the shutter speeds in S and M modes using the touch screen. Therefore, the problem appears to be exclusively related to the back command disk. I have reset the camera to default settings to make sure that the menu setting is not the problem. The camera firmware has been updated to version 1.30. The camera was purchased new earlier this year. I was able to set the shutter speed using the rear command dial before updating the firmware. Has anyone come across this problem? I am trying to determine if it is a mechanical issue or a firmware update related issue. I googled the issue to see if it was related to the recent firmware update to version 1.30 and didn't see any posts about the update

[@theCameraVille]

I can change my shutter with back dial . This is not a problem. You might have something set wrong maybe.

[@zonloe3268]

What about d780 vs z6ii?

[@theCameraVille]

Its the identical clone.

[@camilo8cheryl]

Just don’t combo a Z6/Z6ii and any fixed F4 Z lens and shooting above ISO 1600 in dim lit places.. iso noise is really annoying..

Excellent review my dude. Ive mentioned the benefits of BSI to photographers comparing these two cameras and I’ve been wanting to make this video but haven’t been able to get my hands on a D750 yet. Great work.

[@philipsutton2316]

I've just bought the Z6ii and am quite disappointed with it. I have Vs 1.3 firmware, but the autofocus is a real problem. I shoot street and fast moving events (dancing girls, Indian festivals, marching bands), and the wretched AFC has so many problems. I'm sticking with my Fuji X-T3's because I just don't miss any images with them. With similar focal length lenses on the Nikon, if there is any kind of strong back-lighting, the autofocus just cannot cope. It starts jumping around and goes here and there, instead of on my subject. I've tried all the different boxes and settings, but it does not make much difference. I was shocked because everybody bags out Fuji cameras for their 'terrible autofocus', so I thought the Nikon would nail my moving subjects. Unless they bring out another firmware update to fix this shortly, this will be going on the market to get sold off.

[@theCameraVille]

I sold my X-t3 because it over heats all the time. I cant deal with it. You can only shoot some video with photo so I gave up on it. I even did measure temp reads on it. It was hot as 140F. Their lens arent that great. I tested a few on the channel. Fuji 35mm kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z6LKlXV7qMqMmdU Fuji 8-16 kzbin.info/www/bejne/e4ikaqemZbqlb7s FUji 100-400 kzbin.info/www/bejne/f5iYkmaNZ76Ugsk Over heat kzbin.info/www/bejne/mIGqYqx3f7-karc I had not much issue with the AF for the Z6II. Im not sure what your settings are but I test it vs my canon R6 and Rp . Nikon Z6II vs R6 kzbin.info/www/bejne/moGQp3WratmXqbc Nikon Z6II vs Rp kzbin.info/www/bejne/opuyl5-qqLWsj80 I am sure you may have a setting situation going on. Cheers~

[@philipsutton2316]

@@theCameraVille Thanks dude for getting back. I watched your video, and yes for video seems the Nikon is a bit better than Canon. However, I shoot zero video (hence no problem with my X-T3's), and in stills, I still find the Z6ii doesn't focus well into strong back lighting. I'm sitting on it a while and seeing if there is a firmware update (Z7 got one today). If it fixes it, I'll hang onto it along with my Fuji's (Nikon's images are nice). If the autofocus on the Nikon stays the same - it will get sold off.

[@philipsutton2316]

@@skyrunr Thanks for the reply. I wrote that when I first got the Z6ii. I've taken a lot of photos since then and tried different settings. It's not so bad now - kind of on par with my X-T3. It's not fantastic, but I have a much better keeper rate than before. I still hope though that Nikon bring out a Firmware update for it like they recently did for the original Z6 and Z7.

I got a d750 with pretty low sc recently for AUD $390 …thats about $250 USD. I still cant believe it! Great condition.

[@theCameraVille]

Yes, but if the shutter goes out, $200 for a third party replacement and $400-$500 repair service. Thats just the shutter, any othet repair, good luck.

[@kristoferjuztin2406]

Yeah, but it has a low shutter count. So eventually every shutter will reach its end. Der!

You can get a D750 for around 600 euros tho. If someone does only photography that camera is a STEAL

[@theCameraVille]

Yup, I saw some on Ebay the other day for $700/$800. I think its safe to say Nikon has a range of camera prices that can fit in most peoples budget. Used Z6II is around $1500.

[@IliasKoureas]

@@theCameraVille there's no way you can find a deal for the z6ii for 1500 brother at this time and date. In a year from now this will change obviously. Great video tho really enjoy these comparisons you make 👌 Subbed from the one you did with the d810

[@tc6912]

"Holly crap" says it all! Great comparison. Not really sure its fair to compare the Z's 14fps to the D's 5.5 fps without explaining the limitations on the Z.

[@theCameraVille]

I did actually. Z will give you black out and lag so you will pray and spray. 9:12 , but last time I explain this, the users wasnt happy so I kept it short. Basically you will need to over predict your shots because of the lag in the camera. kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z52TeIGkjaloaas I had maybe 4 more videos connected to that but turns out, people dont want to hear it lol. So in this video, I made it short and sweet.

[@theCameraVille]

@@tubularificationed Yea, that will be an interesting comparison. Tub, if they demonetize me, would you pay for my charge hahaha. Yup. At least you know I am straight forward my friend. That A7IV may take some time. I have a back order on several gear and its been over 6 weeks -_-. One of my friend is on month 3 for a lens. Things arent releasing on time these days. Stay tune.

[@adrianvanleeuwen]

A better comparison is to compare the D780 at 12 fps in electronic live view vs. Z6ii at 14fps. (D780 has a Z6 sensor inside but only one processor while Z6ii has 2 processors).

[@tc6912]

@@adrianvanleeuwen That would be interesting. Seems like the world has forgotten about the D780.

[@tc6912]

@@skyrunr The glass is what is keeping me in the Nikon camp. Still hanging on to my D500, D7200 combo, but I want to update. I don't like the big body on the Z9, so I may replace the D7200 with Zii. Can't decide between the 6ii or 7ii. Can't get a good handle on how much better the low light performance of the 6ii really is. I see the numbers, but can't tell how that relates to everyday shooting.

Good comparison..The newer does better. But...I am a outdoor photographer, landscape. Tripod used...No threat of landscapes doing 60 mph. I`ve no use for video.

Just this week I bought a used D750 with just over 20K clicks for €460. It doesn't get any better than this.

[@theCameraVille]

Yes but getting it fix will be expensive. Its like buying a used car, its cheap but expensive to maintain. D750 isnt even supported by Nikon anymore. So once it breaks, good luck. 3rd party is expensive. Same thing happened to my D810,D4

I don't think comparing cameras of two different generations and technology is fare. D750 dominated the market in its time. I still love D750. Real manly camera.

[@theCameraVille]

I remember when the D750 was released ($2,300). The D750 was priced high and all of us were using D610/D600. Table has turned. It is totally not fair to see Nikon charging far less for the Z6II($2000) during an inflation/chip shortage period. Now does that sounds like a more fair comparison. . :D

As it is shown in the video - if the D750 has the same image quality as the Z6II - I will never get the newer camera for twice or third the price - and even the thing with lens-adapters ... D750 was purplish - WTF - Lightroom, Photoshop, Corel Paintshop Pro, Capture One - all of these will make it right, saving you at least $1000 ...

[@theCameraVille]

Yes most if the image quality was more or less the same. If you need that eye tracking and compact size then yes Z is a great option but otherwise its more or less the same.

If you had the same exposure and lens, it would be more or less the same. If you are pushing dynamic range, Z6II will be better. It depends on each person and their application.
