Nikon Z7 Mirrorless - Complete Review.

[@FrederickDunn]

Finally, a video that goes beyond speculation and expectation, presenting clearly how exceptional the Z series is.I watched and listened to all of those "experts" that I've watched through the years and YOU Sir, are a breath of technical reviewer fresh air. I really appreciate your presentation here and of course am very happy to find a strong endorsement of the new Z-series. I have high expectations that the Z6 will serve as a fantastic video camera. Thumbs UP, new subscriber... thank YOU.

[@PIXELVIILAGE]

[@tebitan3780]

I can only see that the "good images" are not really in focus in the face, but in the hair. So no idea why you are so excited about.

[@joewilde.]

As someone who has had two 'reliable' memory cards fail on two paid assignments and who has lost two customers because of this (one customer was exploring legal action against me because of the fail) I will NEVER use a single card slot camera for paid work.... NEVER! For me, I wouldn't touch this with a barge pole, I'll stick to dual slots until a profesional version is released. I'm quite happy to wait until the full specs of the new Panasonic full frames come out, looks like they are actually taking full frame serious. At this moment, there isn't a mirrorless out there that I would even consider switching to, they will get it right one day, but both Nikon and Canon are purposefully releasing sub-par cameras so they don't compete with their other line ups. I left Canon 3 years ago for that very reason.

[@FrederickDunn]

joewilde I wouldn't use it for "paid work" it's just for fun and my nature related vids/photos.

[@dmt99vn]

no iso test ?

[@mjarry1]

What a nice "get to the point" review, with stellar communication and production skills! An example to be followed

[@babarzaman4586]

The best review by far on internet

[@balas7190]

Thank for much awaited Z7 review, now I am happy having pre-ordered the Z6. Loved your closing comment, and your professional approach to the criticism of the Z7👍

[@GurpreetSingh-yy3jg]

I've seen a lot of reviews bout Z7. But you nailed it from every aspect. Great content with a soothing voice. 🤗

[@shivamani8954]

Best creator I've seen in KZbin.... Thanks for every experienced words which inspires many to do much more.

[@suman3vikram]

13:20 shooting images at a shutterspeed of 1/4 or 1/8 shows how much steady you are. I can't shoot images even at 1/60 shutterspeed. I need to practice now. Thanks for such a great video sir!

[@ahmedawad563]

The review was really helpful, and without presenting much "opinions" like other reviewers did when the Z7 first came out. Everybody jumped on the "lack of dual card slots" wagon and ignored the rest of the camera. You sir, did a very good job in showing us what this camera can actually do. Thank you.

[@sauravus]

Due to the pixel binning issue, do you think the z6 will have slightly better 4k fullframe video output compared to z7?

[@PIXELVIILAGE]

Yes Sourav... I am tempted to think so. Z6 might be better for Video...

[@manishkonidala1002]

Saurav Sinha which would u choose d850 or z7 in all aspects

[@sauravus]

@@PIXELVIILAGE Thanks for the reply. I might go with the z6 then 😁

[@sauravus]

@@manishkonidala1002 I'm not an expert but I will prefer the z7 over d850 because of better video features and the light weight.

[@Holtenstein]

The D850 has unusable video AF. The Z6 is the first Nikon I would feel comfortable shooting video with at a wedding. The rumor is that Nikon has adapted Samsung's video AF system...

[@marcusmansson]

One of the better reviews of this system to date. Thanks!

[@hitmanhart22]

Best review on KZbin on this camera so far. Applaud the great work

Excellent review on the Z7 Sir. One of the best so far. A true joy to listen to you. Very down to earth. Thank you 🙂

[@marcoantonioregiltv]

Such a great review. Congrats and thank you so much for sharing!!

[@ThePhotographyHobbyist]

From everything I've seen of the Nikon Z so far, it just does what it's supposed to and it does it very well. No surprises, just a well thought out camera and works well on the first attempt. I'd say, well done Nikon.

[@smkunder1]

Finally a review with integrity, I am so sick of the bashing. I just subscribed because I enjoyed this review so much!

[@somnathchakraborty88]

Great product from nikon ! Opens a whole new world of opportunities specially in the field of videos !

[@GaryCulleyatTEKeez]

Very complete.....nearly. Thank you for that. Focus seems very impressive. Follow focus could step up Nikon in the video and film production world. This is more impressive than I get from others.

Really ur amazing mentory..... Spreading such a good knowledge of photography.... So much knowledge.... I like ur videos.. Learnt many things. Biggggggg thumbs upppp

[@jibsj2100]

Even though I expected bit more technical comparisons to older generation Nikons, I do very much appreciate your closing remarks, very inspiring.

[@berntolovhellstrom8891]

The best and most thorough review of of the Nikon-Z!!! Many thanks!

[@AbhaySingh-jl6sk]

"Building your Craft " Very important part of life 😇✌✌

[@edc5338]

Excellent review and comments. Being a long time Nikon guy like you, I don't see the need to buy this camera but instead would buy the D850. I like your "trendy" comment at the end which really hit the mark!

[@PIXELVIILAGE]

😀🙏👍

[@boceskia]

A pleasure to watch. Quality video with nice flow, narration, story. It doesn't look anything like those showmen type videos design for click counts. And the conclusions - great and realistic. Some comments still show focus towards hair-splitting, to use your term. Like, there is no high iso test... Yes there is - you showed photos in poor lighting at high iso. What do people want? Signal-to-noise measurement? Very few would actually undestand it anyway. Subscribed!

[@adriang.7017]

I really enjoyed the video! And I loved the lesson you gave at the end of the video! Subscribed!

[@PIXELVIILAGE]

🙏🙏🙏

[@terrywbreedlove]

The battery life is actually testing out pretty good. People are shooting two hours worth of videos and separately shooting over 1500 images on one battery.

[@AmitKukkar]

please do review of Nikon Z6 as well and compare with Sony A7|| , thanks in advance

[@BrianSatoer]

Final someone I can respect :) You're a great commentator and I love how your point of view! I really get bored of all those people nitpicking instead of just working on their own craft. I saw the critique from Arthur Johnson and, Yes, I also noticed you did the test in bright daylight which is an ideal situation and the Z7 does sometimes miss focus in real world usage but that doesn't change the fact that you made a very entertaining and good review. I own all the Nikon camera's up to the D5 and there's always something to critique but is that what really matters? In my opinion it's better to just concentrate on being a good photographer and adapt the tools which are available. I am so fed up with people like Tony Northrup who think they have the right answer to everything. Therefor it was so refreshing to watch your video. If everyone made great videos like you I would watch KZbin all day :)

[@AlbertYap]

Awesome examples. Additional notes, facedetection can be completely auto when auto area mode is selected. The method you used, which is pressing OK button is basically activating subject tracking, which can be used to track any subject in addition to faces. Thus, if its only faces to be focused, can leave the camera at auto area, then if more then one faces in the frame, use the joystick to move between faces.

[@sarathchandran747]

Awesome lighting,nice presentation and of course very informative!!Made me a fan of yours with this single video.Those concluding lines i just added it to my life.

I don’t normally comment on videos, but I have to say what a brilliant review... I have watched a lot of vids on the Z series, but you have clearly mentioned the important aspects of the camera. 👌

[@2DudesPhotography]

Best Review so far for the Z7! Thank you Sir!

[@manabeshchakravarty3244]

Being a age old nikon user though it's a bit bias, still I must admit that it's perhaps the best overview of the mirror less beauty so far I gone through. Excellent work.

[@santoshsundar1186]

Very well paced review.. Appreciate the complete photo/video comparisons and features. And absolutely well said, "Developing the craft/discipline". Doesn't matter if it's a 25k or a 2.5L Camera, if one doesn't develop the craft/skill it is useless..

[@SandraPotisek]

Thank you so much for this review, it's by far the best I've come across and exactly what I was looking for! I'm almost certain I'll be buying the Z6, however, I'm slightly worried about it not having a flip our screen like my current camera (I'm a vlogger and need to see if I'm in frame/focus when I'm filming myself). Do you maybe know if there's any programs out there that I could use to connect the camera to my phone (or my Macbook) so I could see the live preview? If not, any suggestions for cheap external monitors? I'd probably use it like five times a month, so not looking into buying anything fancy. Thanks so much in advance!

[@PIXELVIILAGE]

Great! Thank you Sandra... Yes. You can look at a few options like: 1. Lilliput A5 2. Blackmagic Cinema Assist which is also a Recorder. 3. There are a few WiFi devices which will allow you to remotely view and control your camera using mobile devices, but they don't offer good frame refresh rates. 4. Z7/Z6 comes with remote apps for Mobiles and Macs, bit I've not checked the Live View ability. Will check and update here... Cheers... 🙏👍😊

[@bazzaah]

Very nice first look at this camera. Good job!

I think ur review is the most level headed review of the Z7 on internet , even the most prominent youtubers have fallen prey to whining about the battery life n other trivial issues which you rightly ignored.

Thanks a lot guys for this review. You guys are real professional, as you presented Nikon Z7 with discussion just on the points the real users are interested in. For a long time I was looking for a good camera for stills and video. Sony A7 was one I was looking at but... my collection of Nikon lenses... I was waiting to hear from Nikon and there were rumours on MLC from Nikon. Finally I have chosen - Nikon Z6 with kit lens of 24-70 and the adapter.

[@PIXELVIILAGE]

[@jpdj2715]

Excellent. Thanks! Now, with the old mount, many lenses make me me suffer from their chromatic aberration (CA). I am really curious to see an "old" lens shot that has easily visible CA next to the same shot with a "new" (S) lens.

[@Samsonimages]

Loved the wise words at the end. Thank you for the great in-depth video.

[@MegaRay68]

Could you do one with Z6, I think its a good camera for weddings etc. Z7 and the file size attracts a killer workflow.

[@PIXELVIILAGE]

Definitely. It is expected by the end of next month!

[@pixellabmedia7142]

Great video, thanks for going into detail on features. The focus looks interesting...! We get the same setup in a few weeks.

[@extraesfera]

Hi Radhakrishnan and congrats for your work, not just on this video but on all your videos, which I find quite detailed and helpful for both beginners as well as for advanced photographers. Now, I reckon other people have asked you for a comparison between the D850 and the Z7. I also endorse those requests, expecially regarding AF. Some people have reported that the Z7 is worse on auto focusing moving subjects and is on par, or even better than the D850 - on still subjects. I think that this comparison is relevant since some people have the D850 and are asking themselves if they should move to the Z7. And some others are probably scratching their heads, not knowing if they should buy one or the other. The image quality can be perceived on those camera testing websites. But something like AF is not perceived by anyone except the guy who shoots with the camera. So, that insight from you, who already have experience with both cameras, would certainly be most helpful for a lot of people. Thanks, and keep up this awesome work!

[@PIXELVIILAGE]

Absolutely Sir. I am working on that. Hope to release soon. Thanks for the comment and the suggestion. 🙏🙏🙏😊
