Nikon1 V3 Review

Hands on review with the Nikon 1 V3. I explore the camera on loan from Nikon Canada along with the 18.5mm f/1.8 lens and the FT-1 Adapter.

This V3 has a very nice and useful panorama automatic, as the J4 and J5. its a pity that Nikon cancelled this function on their new z series.

[@abhijitbairagya8105]

Need that viewfinder for nikon z30

[@LELAND_PALMER]

Awesome! Awesome! Awesome!

[@dhanaramprashad6417]

Due to the cost factor, what is your opinion on Nikon1 J5 series?

[@hiroaki22]

写りもいいですね・・案外いいですね・・

[@Citnos]

Why they didn't use a m4/3 sensor 😢

[@desmondvanderpoel961]

Great review can the new 10-30 lens fit on the v1

[@studio2251]

Yes I think it can since I use a 10 - 30mm though search it up first

[@sirnubenegra]

Why do they hate flashes?

[@11557bexley]

Hi, I'm really loving this camera but I'm a canon shooter, that's what's holding me back on getting this any thoughts on this

[@schultzphotographic]

I think you'll find that the Nikon 1 system is quite simple and easy to learn regardless of your photography background with Canon.

[@Thedvdbchannel]

Hello, Can you help me yo understand the shoot at 60 fps? I thought that rate was just for video, but this camera took 40 pics at a 60fps rate... I still don't get that. Can you/anyone help me? I mean, 60fps are not a sequence of 60 photos? I know I am totally wrong, but I don't know how. Thanks!

[@schultzphotographic]

It's Nikon's burst feature I think. You can choose which of the burst photos is the best. It's like selecting the best frame from a video. Trying to get the perfect shot of a person doing something, then this burst will help ensure you get the best shot you want. That's my best guess!

[@davidroseman3287]

schultzphotographic Yes, it is a burst, and is actually 60 separate frames.

[@beavertown2006]

The new kit lens is a pain in the ass for zooming.

[@hiroaki22]

V3カメラらしいカメラですね使ってみたいカメラの一台です。

[@the_ab_official32]

Can u flip the screen up?

[@schultzphotographic]

I don't think so. I can't remember exactly but it's not as dextrose as the most current articulating screens.

[@sonicCherryBell]

bro, mario brothers 2 is a classic in its own rite.

[@jackslater8688]

Who wants to sell their V3???

[@davidroseman3287]

If you’re still interested, I’ve got one...

[@tryingtocapture4112]

@@davidroseman3287 do you still have it?

[@davidroseman3287]

Tryingto capture Yes, I do. I’m feeling ambivalent about selling, to tell the truth, but am not using it enough right now to really justify keeping.

[@heleezy]

@@davidroseman3287 Still available?

[@davidroseman3287]

@@heleezy it's funny you should ask, my ambivalence about keeping it slowly turned to enthusiasm. It's too small and fun to use to give up. I do have a J5 in mint condition with a 10.5 f2.8 lens I've been trying to sell. In many ways it's actually a better camera, especially the sensor (and obviously the screen), but I'm too addicted to looking through a viewfinder (and so dislike taking photos on my phone)

[@fotostephan]

very poor Quality . Not for right photographer. A pure toys and much too expensive. These enthusiastic recession I can not understand .

[@davidroseman3287]

You should perhaps explain in German (no insult intended, but I just don’t understand your comment). What do you mean by “poor quality”. It has its faults, but overall is a very capable camera, and a joy to use, for the most part. No, it’s not as good as a pro quality Olympus 4/3s, but also cost much less. Nikon designed a great set of lenses, as well, and it is a shame they will be orphaned.
