After couple of days of confusing guides, finally one that goes systematically through the setup, and explaining what the key options and reasons for some of the setups are useful for. Thank you. You relieved bunch of frustration.

[@justinthomas3829]

Perfectly pitched introductory instructional video delivered with calm authority. Took a lot of the stress out of setting up my z6. Thank you!

[@Arabella939]

INCREDIBLY useful! Thank you for going through all this detail. Your videos helped convince me to purchase a Z6, and so this was perfect as the next step to understand initial setup and some other options to explore further. THANK YOU!!

[@andreisebe2999]

I don't think that I've watched a 40 minutes plus video on youtube without skipping a single second. This is the first one. I think is one of the best videos out there explaining in detail ( where it counts ), every setting that is important. By watching this, I've discovered that some of the important settings where wrong. So yeah, great walktrough.

[@tangelalevinson835]

This is the best Z6 Video that I have seen! I love the way you explained each menu function. this was thorough and very easy to understand. THANK YOU!

[@papabear9185]

I have been looking for 2 months for a straightforward informational presentation like this! Thank you for an excellent video that actually covers the details others leave out! Simply brilliant! Thank you again!

[@beckamarsch5011]

Just got my Z6 and this was the first full set up video that popped up. Thank you! I will be subscribing.

[@JB-ou6fl]

This video is very helpful. It can serve as an instruction manual for me. I like the fact that you took the time to explain what each of the key options do rather than just talking about the options that you use. Thank you for making this video.

[@janiegillies4318]

Thank you for your video. I just bought the Z6 and this has really helped me figure out the settings and how to set them for what I use the camera for. I'm heading to Tasmania in a few days and it's given me a really good insight into what features this camera has. - thanks!

[@PhanchaiSiam555]

I bought my Z6 last week. This video help me a lot, even I read the fine manual. Thank you.

[@gentlegnt]

Absolutely outstanding video I am renting the Z6 just for a few days and did not want to have to go through a whole manual to get the information you share. Thank you so much

[@bcoral8101]

Thank you!! No nonsense & straight to the point. It was easy to understand and follow.

[@pauldanesiphotography]

Thank you so much. Setup on my own, but your video helped with options I didn't fully understand. Much appreciated.

[@Rogerharrison100]

Many thanks from Queensland, Australia. Very comprehensive, clearly spoken & very easy to follow. A vast difference from the D800/750 et al. I have you Bookmarked!

[@harbanlutchman6563]

Thank You for such a helpful info. I just bought Nikon Z6 so it is just what I wanted. I love the way you explain all the features on the Z6..... Thank You.

[@roycehangzhou]

It's taken me nearly a year to fully set up my camera, and after watching this now I'm slapping myself for not watching this earlier. Thank you, this video was great.

[@stevemilner3208]

Having just traded up from a Canon 6D, I needed helping hand with this feature-rich Z6, and this video has done the job - extremely well? Thank you very much indeed.

[@abhijeetsharan7386]

Of course Ricci s doing a great job . That's exactly why we want more from him .....

Good job, I needed this to refresh my memory on nikon menu's Thank you

[@MalcolmMcEwen]

Excellent video and the best and most useful of the Z 6 uploads I've watched (much better than the uploads of the crop of Vloggers Nikon flew to Morocco) that is a compliment to the manual and a must download. 5 stars!

You present in exactly the style from which I learn the best. Thank you very much.

[@axelbollmann7446]

Big thanks. Excellent tutorial!!!

[@johnhjic2]

Hi Ricci, I know that I do not have a Z series camera but this was still a very good explanation of setting up a Nikon camera. Thank you for your interesting videos this year and hopefully there will be more coming? Have an amazing 2019.

[@RicciTalks]

Glad you found it useful 🤗

[@flatulent-1]

Thank you for this. It's a big help.

[@volkerbosch9078]

Very helpful. Thank you from Germany

[@abhijeetsharan7386]

Thanks for your video . Would you consider a complete tutorial series on using Z6 in various fields . Maybe separate videos for photography n video . And those too in different common uses . That's gonna be of great help to Z6 user community

[@RC75]

Abhijeet Sharan I think he already did a great job.

[@RicciTalks]

Could definitely look at doing something like that in the future.

Patiently waiting for your 50mm 1.8s reviews. I'll probably sell my sigma art and get the 50mm 1.8s

[@jowilliebear]

Thank you, thank you. I appreciate how you explain the reason and results of each option. Anxious to see more tips as your experience grows with each shooting situation.

[@RicciTalks]

Thank you for watching !

[@hr9505]

Thank you, very useful info,

[@jeromeThailande]

Switching to sensibility 1 or 2 on d10 made my Laowa 100 usable at last, great

[@ksredadare]

@ricci talks: Great Video. Vignette Control handles different with the Z6 than on other Nikon cameras. You can't fix vignette in Lightroom if it is not activated in the camera. The Meta-Information forces Lightrooms behavior in the lens correction. So if you wan't to have lens corrections in Lightroom you have to activate them in the camera.

[@mchjubjub6915]

Thank you. Much appreciated👍

[@arashsameti2107]

It was great that God bless you.....BIG Like

[@Lefty10is]

really great explainations for beginning to use my camera. Need to slow down on the customization features. I still don't know how to use these options on the Z6. any additional video on this would be greatly appreciated! but this was a great starting point. Also if you can answer me I have some area grayed out on my Z6. Camera says can't use at the camera white balance, set picture control, and even active D lighting...is my camera broken? I've just taken it out of the box? or is it the raw photo setting...thanks

[@DawnCamp]

Super helpful video-thank you!

[@RicciTalks]

Thanks for watching !

[@cotswoldphotographers]

Really helpful, thank you 👍

[@57sapke]

Thx for this great video.

[@JohnMayfield-NS]

Excellent video, thanks, helped me fine tune a couple things I wasn't sure on. :) One thing I'd like to add about customizing the i menu - you can have a different i menu for each user setting, both photo and video (6 total). I have mine set up for u1 general shooting, u2 sport, u3 macro on photos, u1, u2, u3 on video I'm still working on but likely general HD, HD 120 frames, and then 4k.

[@RicciTalks]

Glad it helped 😊

[@JohnMayfield-NS]

@@RicciTalks Your vids helped sell me on the Z6 :D I could only fight off GAS for so long.. ;)

[@RicciTalks]

Well I definitely hope you are happy with it! Got some cool stuff for Nikon users coming up so keep an eye out for that 🤗

[@JohnMayfield-NS]

@@RicciTalks Very happy with it so far, even though it's been brutal cold to get out and do anything. High ISO on this thing is phenomenal. Looking forward to what you have coming up. :)

[@kristiankaraneshev7528]

Hi, great video! I have a question regarding Raw file sizes. Do you lose dynamic range/quality/bit depth if you shoot at Raw S or M compared to Raw L?

[@Stapelstefan]

Thank you for this good video!

[@glenf4797]

Nice one. Very helpful, thanks! Made it to the end and popped you a subscribe :)

[@dsu2002]

Excellent tutorial. Thanks!

[@RicciTalks]

Thank you !

[@101010328]

Great info video. i dont see the exposure meter on video mode any idea how i can adjust my exposure ?

[@SidneyPratt]

Thanks, verywellexplained.

[@TheOtherOtherMike]

Hey Ricci, I have a question about the Z6 raw files. when importing into Lr, I get automatic adjustments made to the raw files as well as the color profile is automatically set to a custom profile(standard v2). although not permanent adjustments, I can of course just re adjust. this is the only Nikon body ive had this issue with. Any idea what's causing this?

[@jeromeThailande]

Thank you v much When I put the 40mm macro DX the menu says I can chose to do slow motion video but the result is normal video with sound ,???

[@avnerbenzvi8757]

the second time update my setup thank a lot

[@veljkopejic2849]

Very good and useful video. Ricci, can you recommend some tripods for z6? Thanks!

[@OstyleProductions]

Thanks 🙏🏽 greatly appreciated

[@alenlenia]

Thank you it was helpfull

[@janetsanderson7996]

Thank you, another realy helpful video. When I was going through the set up, quire a few of the options were blanked out and I got "this option is not available at current settings, or in the cameras current state" but there were no clues as to how to get them back. Do you have any suggestions please?

[@dre_dawkcide]

Excellent vid. Can you update with the newest software added?

[@musabalhawamda3223]

Thank you so much. I have a question regarding importing z6 images into Lightroom, it says that a built-in profile has been applied. How can I stop that? Another question, I have an issue with the sharpness. My Z6 does not give as sharp images I expected. Is this because of using F lenses via Ftz?

[@cactustweeter2890]

Very helpful. Thank you.
