Nikon Zf or Z6III: Head Vs Heart?

[@SteveGong]

I love how you brought in the story about Steve McCurry! I met him in 2004 when he came to speak at my university. Right after the talk I introduced myself and asked him to sign my Nikon D70, my first DSLR, with a red permanent marker. Every time I looked at that signature on my camera I wanted to go out and take photos and I think it was a big factor that lead to me becoming a professional photographer!

[@craigcarlson4022]

Steve, That is an awesome story! Keep that camera forever...unless you have a child or grandchild who shows a real interest in photography to whom you can bequeath it when they are old enough to appreciate the significance of it.

[@MiguelClarke]

This is an awesome story Steve. So glad you shared it! That D70 was a great camera, no? Oh the good old CCD days. 😆

[@SteveGong]

@@craigcarlson4022 Yes! Still have it to this day!

[@SteveGong]

@@MiguelClarke It really was! I actually first got a Canon digital rebel, and my god was that camera awful. The D70 was in contrast so much better and paved the course for me still using Nikon to this day.

I have a ZF with a 40 lens and a Z5 with the 24-200. Stills only. The Z5 combo is super useful for travel but if I had to pick one camera only it would be the ZF plus 40, a photographic joy to use

How did Nikon pull the Zf off? It truly is a wonderful shooting experience!

[@GeoffKirby]

Jack Jack Jack! Thank you so much for this video, I'm a die-hard Nikon guy and I did my degree in photography and my final project on street photography back in 2000. I'm first cameras was the F-301 and FM2 and Now I own the Z8, Z6ii and I have just recently got the Z6iii and I can say they are all incredible cameras and I haven't had any problems with the Dr on the Z6iii shooting weddings and it's a great upgrade from the Z6ii I love your style and the way you have integrated Steve McCurry story in to this video. makes me want to get the ZF and hit the streets again like I did 25 years ago for my degree. THanks again and have a great day.

[@BokehTherapy]

Hi Geoff, glad this resonated with your experience, with a degree in photography no less! I am relatively new to Nikon, lots to learn from seasoned shooters like yourself. Loving the history and legacy of the brand that lets me make videos like this one. Welcome to the channel!

[@juliette-mansour]

Hi Jack, when you announced this video coming I was quite surprised to know you'd consider the Z6iii. I guess I'm getting to know you! I am glad you put this out there because I have been back and forth about whether to buy it. Again, your videos are so tasteful - truly, I'm hoping you continue to publish great content like this. Weaving in the story of McCurry's final Kodachrome roll really puts a much needed perspective on the theme of head vs heart. Well done! And I had been waiting for a solid perspective on the Z6iii. Thank you for providing that! I shoot 50% street (with the Zf and other micro four thirds cameras), 35% event photography (just sold the X-H2S and was planning on the Z6iii or Z8) and 15% wildlife/birds. For my camera replacement, I wanted to be sure about the next move, so your video was invaluable. 🙂Thank you again!

[@BokehTherapy]

Thank you Juliette - your ongoing support of the channel means a lot! I was asked to shoot an event and needed two cameras - could have bought another Zf but I do shoot a lot of video for work and on this channel.

Wow! Editing master you are! Brilliant your narrative here is! 😅 (That's as long as I can hold that!) Seriously, I'm trying to stick to Nikon if I can because: old lenses. This video hits more than one of my sensibilities. I'm old enough to have had an undergrad photography course in which we started in b&w and made our own prints. The Kodachrome story was a nice bonus within the task of picking a camera. And quite to your point: is it too much to ask for both?😁 All I can say is keep going. I'm subscribed. I love when my curiosity and my catalog brain and my (you said it right) ...my heart are all getting involved at once. Very nicely done.

Finally nice to hear someone talk about these cameras with the emotion only Nikon brings. I can tell you’ve watched the other videos on the z6iii calling it basically a horrible camera “because it marginally flickers in the shadows at 51200 iso”…… as if there weren’t pros using a 1/4 of the capabilities of even a Canon RP and getting better results. I think for just photos the ZF really is the more fun camera. It’s why I have a Z6III and a FE2. Video is where the Z6III really does do laps on the ZF but that old photo charm of the ZF is amazing. Fantastic video instantly subbed

[@notthatproud7453]

Oh man, I want to like the Zf. I keep looking at these retro styled cameras, comparing the Zf and the Fujifilm X-T5. Every time I pick up a Zf, though, the ergonomics are just kind of bad. And the fact that everyone buys a grip for it just demonstrates the flaw.

[@Carthodon]

I own it and don't see it as a flaw. Why should people be forced to buy multiple cameras in order to get one which is compact and one which can support larger lenses? It's strange for people to say it is a flaw when there is a clear advantage to the setup.

[@gshocker77]

I agree that the ergonomics of most of the retro styled cameras are not great but I think that is part of the reason that people gravitate towards them. It is hard to have that retro styling without having poor ergonomics.

[@MiguelClarke]

I did not love the Zf grip right out of the box either. But, my experience shooting it is just fantastic. (Not flawless.) For reference, I have shot a lot of Nikon cameras. (N50, N75, F100, D70, D200, D2x, D300(s), D3 and D800 all before going mirrorless.) The Zf is one of my favorite Nikon bodies. First it’s the F100, then the D3, then the Zf…and it is rapidly rising up the ranks the more often I shoot. There is nothing magical about the Zf. I like how the camera feels. I am impressed by the image quality. At the end of any session, I have more keepers than with any other camera body I have used previously. I always want to have my Zf with me, even when I am sure I won’t need it. If the Zf does not do that for you, I hope you find one that does! Then tell us all about your experience.

[@BokehTherapy]

The Fuji XT5 is fantastic! It is the 5th iteration of the product, whereas the Zf is the first or second if you count the ZfC. Slightly improved ergonomics will come around next time I’m sure

[@carlmcneill1139]

I'm a hobbyist. I have the z6 II and the z8. What I don't like about the first and second gen Nikon mirrorless cameras is the focus tracking and the screen blackout in burst mode. Which is why I broke down and bought the z8. The z8 is great for landscape, wildlife and sports. But it's also a heavier and larger camera and the files are larger. I would like to sell my z6 II next year and buy either the zf or the z6 III. Ergonomics is also important. My head and my heart are arguing right now. From my understanding the zf still has a little bit of screen blackout but not as bad as previous bodies. The z6 III has a little bit of blackout when using the mechanical shutter. I'm not sure if that's a readout speed issue or from the shutter opening and closing. I do a little bit of everything from portraits, milky way, street, landscape and macro. I have the z8 so I could just not spend the money on anything. Maybe spend it on a trip. I would love to go to Iceland for the next total eclipse in 2026.

[@BokehTherapy]

The blackout doesn’t bother me too much for my style of shooting - confirmation that I actually took the shot! Sounds like the Z6III is more your speed, but try out the Zf in a camera store? Might help you make your decision a bit quicker. Thanks for watching!

[@EricWier]

Thanks for another great video! It was nice to hear thoughts on the two cameras, particularly when you have spent so much time with the Zf, rather than just a week for a review. Your connection with the last roll of Kodachrome was really fun too! My father found a roll of Kodachrome in his old film bag that had expired in 1993, but gave it to me. To my delight, I was able to shoot it on a Nikon F2 recently, and the shots actually turned out quite nice! I did need to ship it to Film Rescue International Ltd., since there are not many places that can develop it anymore.

[@BokehTherapy]

Thank you Eric! What a cool experience, do you have those shots up on IG? I haven’t delved much into film (yet), we don’t have many places to develop in my city.

[@EricWier]

@@BokehTherapy I will put some up on Instagram soon! I was impressed that anything came out of it, as the film is at least 31 years old! Fortunately there are a few good labs in Baltimore to get it developed. Film is really fun, and a good exercise in composition and exposure, since you are limited to 36 frames.

[@BokehTherapy]

Another rabbit hole to fall into haha. Think I will start by looking at some vintage F mount glass that can work for both film and digital

[@EricWier]

@@BokehTherapy That is a great idea, and something I have been doing, ha ha. In light of your discussion of Steve McCurry, the Nikkor 105mm f2.5 Ai-s is an amazing lens. He used it to capture his famous "Afghan girl" photo. My other recommendation would be the Micro Nikkor 55mm f2.8. It is a great walk around lens that can also do macro well. Both are pretty easy to find in good condition for under $200. But there are tons of cool old lenses. Their built quality is superb, making them a real joy to use.

I purchased the Nikon ZF before the Z6III was released, while waiting for the Zf the Z6ii went on sale and I picked one up,I have a collection of cameras that span 16 years, my first DSLR is a Pentax K100D Super, followed by a K10 D,and several others including the K3 MKIII AND K1 MKII. To the Pentax bodies I added Fujifilm, Panasonic, the Nikon and a Sony A7 MKII and MkIII along with Olympus 4/3 bodies. I would still chose the ZF over the Z6 III for the simple fact that I have many similar types of cameras and I primarily shoot stills, the Zf is a unique camera and it is easy to shoot B&W and color. It also reminds me of my late uncle's Nikon film camera, I have a Fujifilm XT3 and XT5 and the Zf builds on the retro style that I enjoy using without getting a film camera. When I started adding different cameras to my collection of Pentax cameras I choose some that were different like the Zf and XT5 and some that were similar as far as controls like The Panasonic S5 MKII and G9. Another reason for the different cameras were the lens selection and design that are unique to each camera systems.

[@BokehTherapy]

What a collection of cameras! The Zf is a classic for sure, hope you find time to shoot with them all. Thanks for watching!

[@Renzsu]

Here's my reasoning... if it's not for work, get the camera that tickles your fancy. You don't need it... some of the most famous and most loved photos have been taken with a simple analog camera, that can't do even a percent of what these modern marvels can. Get what you like to operate, look at, carry around with you. The photos will be fine, no matter what you get. Also, I wouldn't really consider chasing the latest and greatest a good form of 'therapy', but that's maybe just me ;)

How long will that retro joy last though? I went from Canon 5d mkiii to Fujifilm system (full switch) back in the day and was XPRO user for years. I loved the retro feel initially, A LOT, but then.. tried to fix the ergos so I get a better grip on the camera.. then the physical dials which I initially loved started to be annoying because I'd accidentally change the settings whenever they catch on something (clothes, bag,..), plus I really only wanted to use few settings I fine-tuned, so once set I didn't use those dials much. So I sold my Fujifilm kit, and was only shooting medium format film camera for a while. Meanwhile prices of developing (and scanning) film skyrocketed, so I'm going back to digital. I definitelly want full frame, and torn between Zf and Z6iii. Zf has the looks, but then I already experienced that with Fujilfim XPRO and it does wear off rather quickly, so this time it won't be a factor for me. Z6iii has similar ergos that I loved on my old canon eos 5d. It looks like an average mirrorless, and can not be more boring, which is fine. I shoot mainly portraits & family & only using (fast) primes, but would like to get into video podcasts. If looks wouldn't be a factor, and given the above, which camera would you go for folks?

[@BokehTherapy]

@tomxaak thanks for sharing. I used to run a 2 camera video podcast, full HDMI out is very useful. That alone might be reason to go with the Z6III. Retro doesn't have to be a fad if manufacturers treat it seriously but a lot of makers (even Fujifilm) think of these cameras as second tier enthusiast options. Hopefully the Zf line continues, maybe a ZS rangefinder next (I can dream!)

I'm planning to replace my old D800e with either the Z6iii or the Zf. I've been reading forums and watching comparison videos for a week now. I don't shoot videos and don't intend to. In my early youth, I spent a lot of time shooting on film using cameras similar in design to the Zf, which makes the decision even more difficult. I understand that either of these will be better than my current D800e, but again, I want to make a purchase that will last for several years.

@@BokehTherapy Again, as you mentioned in your video, my heart is completely captivated by the Zf, but I understand with my head that the Z6iii will remain relevant longer than the Zf, on the other hand, in terms of price-to-performance ratio, the Zf is currently leading, for example in my region I can buy new Zf, protective glass on the screen, new 40mm f2 Nikon z lens and L grip for about €2000, while the new Z6iii alone sells for €2300-€2600

Hence why I shoot with both! The Zf’s value is great, no reason why it won’t last for years if you don’t shoot video. Can wait for a sale later in the year and see if the value prop changes further?

This is exactly my dilemma (coming from the D800). Did you decide? I lean toward the ZF also because I could use my old mf Olympus OM lenses (with an adaptor). Of course that would also be possible on the Z6iii, but i guess it would look much better on the ZF.

Fantastic story telling and great job weaving in The Last Roll. These videos get better and better! Now if only there was a way to get Kodachrome SOOC on my Zf. Maybe an idea for a future video… Also, I see you got the new Neewer grip. I swapped my Smallrig for it. Gamechanger.

[@BokehTherapy]

Thanks so much Mike - I tried the new Neewer grip, really love the aesthetics but couldn’t beat the soft silicon of the Smallrig for my own use case. In camera film presets are on the agenda, probably next month given how long i want to spend getting it right. Thanks for the feedback!

[@hammadfilm]

Love this video. Thinking about getting a z6iii to shoot alongside my zf for street. A 35mm prime on one and 85mm on the other since primes bokeh is much better than the zoom lens. Would you recommend that as a street setup with the bags you mentioned?

[@BokehTherapy]

That is exactly the setup I’ve been using - it works great! The canteener sling bag is great for quick access and storage for one camera. If you wanted to store both cameras in a sling the pilot 7L or 10L work too

2 camera setup is essential - I guess technically; but video and stills are different things.

[@BokehTherapy]

It’s only essential for my workflow - I try to use one body for video and the other for stills. But for stills a backup camera is nice to have?

[@romo9592]

Well written as always! I don't have a ZF (yet), I actually own the Z6III, but I think the ZF is just as an important camera in Nikon's repertoire. Its important that, in this spec and speed race, we have another simple and bonafide photography camera with heritage; something that we thought was exclusive to Fujifilm and Leica. This existence of this camera makes me hopeful for the future of Nikkor lenses that are more bespoke, character driven, and unique to compliment this retro body. We already see this trend in the various pancakes and the new 35 1.4. Perhaps a 50 1.4 next?

[@BokehTherapy]

Yes all the cameras should function to the same baseline of performance in the next few years - it will then be about the heritage and the stories the brands can tell (like in the watch industry!). Fingers crossed for a retro 50mm from Nikon, I would love it!

[@seba3233]

Nice video . For outdoor walks, street and portraits of my little daughter, what do you recommend on Nikon Z f? tamron 28-75mm f2.8 di iii vxd g2 or Nikkor z 24-120 f4 s

[@BokehTherapy]

Both are very versatile - depends on which lens you feel balances better on the Zf? I think the form factor is pretty similar. Have you tried both?

[@seba3233]

@@BokehTherapy No. I have the budget to buy one. And I'm undecided

[@michaelherskovitz4203]

Enjoyed the video and overall comparison very much. I do concur that when it comes to street photography-going with the heart would be the best option. It’s all about the feeling and emotion of sensing something special about the “ordinary.” I’ve been using the Zf a bit more for street work - especially with vintage lenses (mostly converted cinema lenses). I’m still on the fence about trading in my Z6ii for the Z6iii. (It’s actually due to the “flippy” screen-which isn’t something I care for very much based on the way I like to shoot).

[@BokehTherapy]

The flippy screen isn’t the best for my workflow but it is everywhere - I have gotten used to it, just treat it like there’s no flip at all most of the time. Thanks for watching, let me know what you decide on the Z6iii!

[@harshnainwal762]

I have been using a Nikon D5600,DX Format, for the last 3-4 years, primarily for travel and portrait photography. Now, I'm planning to upgrade to a mirrorless camera that can handle both portrait (wedding) photography and occasional travel. Additionally, I'd like it to be suitable for shooting videos for my Instagram profile. I'm considering the Nikon Z6 III, but I would appreciate suggestions for other brands or models that might be a better fit. or I should go with Z6iii.

[@BokehTherapy]

Z6iii is a great choice, but almost any mirrorless camera fits the bill of what you’re describing? You should go to a camera store to try out different brands, but if you are used to Nikon the Z6iii might be the easiest move to make. Let me know what you go with!

Another great review Jack. I hope you would review the new wotancraft cantineer bag someday. I wish you could enlightened me with ZF auto iso setting. Let just say I set minimum iso 100 and max iso 6400. If i twist the iso dial to 1600, would the iso fixed at 1600 or the maximum iso changed to 1600? Thanks

[@BokehTherapy]

Hello Stefanus! I have a dedicated Wotancraft video coming up next month, will have a longer term review of the canteener bag there. Thanks for the feedback! Auto ISO works the same in all modes, but easiest to see in aperture priority. If auto ISO is on, the ISO dial sets the minimum ISO (1600 in your example). Max iso stays the same as you’ve set in your menu. If you turn auto ISO off (can only be done in the menu), then 1600 on the dial is the fixed ISO. Took me ages to figure out but this is it - hope that makes sense.

[@stefanusadrian8398]

@@BokehTherapy i saw some videos about zf auto iso and its iso dial connection. Some said if we use iso on dials, it will fixed the iso (1600 on my sample). Others said it will set as maximum iso.

[@BokehTherapy]

Yup we are all confused! I thought it was maximum ISO too, but in manual mode both the aperture and shutter speed are set by you so the ISO can’t always be as low as the minimum you’ve set. All I know is these cameras tend to keep ISO as low as possible in auto ISO

[@stefanusadrian8398]

[@Jgheiler]

hi there, do you find the AF better than the ZF? for kids running arond and doing erratic movements?

[@BokehTherapy]

Hello! Yes the AF is better than the ZF in terms of how sticky the box is once 3D tracking begins. In terms of initial focus acquisition the ZF was already fast enough for my daughter running around. Do you shoot with the ZF?

[@Jgheiler]

@@BokehTherapy I do shoot with the ZF. I was having second thoughts because on the 4th day of using it, out on the beach, the ZF was having a hard time locking onto our faces in relatively good conditions. I was abit surprised. I'm getting 2nd thoughts, lol. But also, I am so happy with the image quality. But I do want more keepers.

[@BokehTherapy]

Hrmm I use the wide area (L) as a backup to 3D tracking on the Zf in case it can’t pick up faces in different conditions. The Z6III is better, and the image quality is almost identical unless you’re shooting landscapes at base ISOs. Neither the Zf or Z6iii are as quick at AF as my Sony bodies, but it’s close enough where I don’t notice a difference for my workflow

[@Jgheiler]

@@BokehTherapy That actually helped! Thank you. The wide area helps the camera focuse more accurately.

[@BokehTherapy]

Great to hear! I have 3D tracking on shutter, wide area AF on the AEL/AFL button. Two focus modes to try without diving into menus

[@samuelhickstube]

Hey mate, I’m getting rid of my Z8 because it’s just overkill for my expensive hobby. I’m just gonna be doing the family and home lifestyle and street type stuff. Do you think the zf covers those bases easily and provides that unique retro feel? I feel like it’s the way to go. Loving the channel, cheers

[@BokehTherapy]

Hello sorry to hear the Z8 is going! It is too big for my workflow as well. I think you will take a hit on the AF speed coming from Z8 to the Zf so depends how much that matters to you? I have found the Zf to be fast enough for my family and street work personally

[@craigcarlson4022]

Jack and others, This is my first week with my ZF. Having watched a few 'how to set up your ZF' videos, I was anticipating the absurdity that bypassing those oddly comforting brass old-world-invoking knobs on top, would make for a quicker to adjust set up. But, I also use a Z50, so with the set up you describe the two function more alike. Could Nikon issue a firmware update that would allow the "C" settings on the knobs to function like "A" on Fuji cameras? What do people think...Would that make for a simpler more direct way to manage the exposure triangle? We'd still probably need to put aperture on a front or back dial, given our Nikon lenses don't have aperture rings. Thoughts?

[@BokehTherapy]

A completely manual experience is more fun if I only had the Zf! There is a rumoured firmware update around the corner, I am keen to see what Nikon does with the camera. I am looking for some user banks to memorise shooting settings myself

[@bsc001]

Voigtländer z-mount lenses allow you to use the aperture ring, turning the Zf experience into a true manual experience. I can highly recommend the 40 1.2 as a true all-rounder, whilst the 50 1.0 and 75 1.5 are extremely good portrait lenses.

[@BokehTherapy]

They’re so good that they’re still sold out everywhere - I am adapting my M mount 50mm f1.2 for now

[@bsc001]

[@rsandilands]

You're obviously fine with the ~24-24.5 MP of these two cameras? Does the extra resolution of the z8 or the Sony a7CR/ a7RV ever feel tempting?

[@BokehTherapy]

Hi Richard! I shot for about 3 years with 50 megapixel or higher cameras (Sony A1/A7CR) so I thought I would definitely miss the higher res. Surprisingly I get a similar thrill when punching in on 24 megapixels if the lens is sharp enough, and I really need the low light performance more than the resolution. Sadly I sold my A7CR to fund the Z6III - still have my E mount lenses while I await Sony’s next gen. Thanks for watching!

[@RBRowe7]

Another wonderful, engaging , smart video. I'm definitely leaning more in favor of buying the Zf over the Z6III, mainly for the tactile retro dial experience fro landscapes and cityscapes. I think it would be interesting if you devoted a video to examining more deeply the differing experience of using these two cameras, mainly for stills. The Zf clearly is designed for slowing down and enjoying the dials, and the Z6III, with its DSLR layout, is the more efficient fast-action shooter. I imagine seeing all the settings on the familiar top dials (in Manual mode) before putting eye to EVF (sadly, lacking only clicky aperture rings on Nikon Z lenses) is more instantly satisfying and intuitive than using the front and rear command dials, while also having to press the ISO and exp. comp buttons, or deciphering the top panel mini LCD settings screen or EVF info. display. But that is probably my familiar analog film camera bias coming in. I'm really looking forward to your adapted lens video next week. I worry about losing in-camera auto lens distortion corrections (especially for wide angle lenses) when adapting third- party or vintage lenses. Thanks for your inspiring, enlightening videos!

[@BokehTherapy]

Thank you - I have a few videos lined up about manual lenses and will need both cameras to test different lenses. This is very useful feedback, I also get a lot out of community polls for channel subscribers who tell me what they want to know. More to come!

[@shadowmaster41]

I want to get the Z6III so bad but my budget won't allow it at this point so I'm heavily considering the Zf. I don't quite like the vintage look or the ergonomics of the Zf but it's by no means an ugly camera, it's actually grown on me the more I look at it and the price puts it a bit more in reach for me. I just don't want to regret my decision if I choose to get the Zf.

[@BokehTherapy]

@shadowmaster41 I would hold out until your budget allows for either then make the call then? Unless you need a camera right now of course. If you don't like the Zf you'll lose more money on the trade in / resale. If you do any video work the Z6III is the superior camera, photo only it will depend on ergonomics. Try the Zf in store with the Smallrig grip? The ergos are a hit or miss almost immediately for most people

[@shadowmaster41]

@BokehTherapy understood. Thanks for that. I do photography at the moment with the Nikon Z30 so I've been working towards upgrading because of the different challenges I observe after each shoot. So I decided I'd save up and upgrade to something that I can do both video and photo competently and hold onto for the next few years.

Night shooting shadow detail recovery… Z6 III or Zf..? Think nighttime photo walks in urban NYC, London, Tokyo, HKG, or Melbourne.

[@BokehTherapy]

If you’re shooting at high ISOs (higher than 800) there’s not much difference? If you shoot at base ISOs the Zf has an advantage. For night time photos walks I would be exposing to the right anyway so shadow detail recovery isn’t as big a deal - I still found usable results at ISO 32000. But your noise tolerance might be different to mine - there are sample raw files you can download for both cameras on DPReview? Have a play and see what you think

Has anyone tried using just a thumb rest on the ZF to achieve sufficient grip? I’m trying/hoping to avoid the extra weight of the finger grip handles.

I can have free hands etc. Small bag is possible because you only have 1 body in the bag, maybe a lens and flash, depending on what you are doing. Everything I use is WR anyways. If you don't have a bag where you can clip the peak design capture clip to. I use the pad and clip it to my belt. Only downside of this is toilet breaks ;)
