It comes down to cost of the A7II and the echo system people have. It also comes down to Nikon being a NEW system to everyone even to Nikon owners. Funny how the work I produced kept your trap shut and a big mouth like you would love to jack down comments if I posted bad Z6 footage. Other and maybe you posted that Nikon doesn't do firmware updates and don't hold my breath on any updates from Nikon. Well v2.0 hit the streets and worked like advertised. I don't see the bad performance from the Z6 or the bad rap Nikon has right now because the proof from the camera shuts up guys like you. Nikon and Atomos said 12 bit RAW is coming from Nikon. When 12 bit RAW comes out for the Z6 it's going to be a game changer because it makes Sony and Canon up the specs and serious videographers are going to use the A7III for video production. The fallout for Sony will be all the A7III's hitting the re-sale used market because they specs on the A7SIII will show everyone how much Sony's been holding back. That list is 2 months old.

What with the personal shots dude? Go look at the link I posted from Ebay and the Z6 - Z7 are holding there value. No other way to interrupt that fact. Your story about a guy that sold his when he was desperate and behind the dumpster mean nothing. You already exaggerated the "half the original value" so you're an exaggerator of the truth. You're comments and exaggerations about Nikon and the price drop and everything else does come off as the sky is falling because you keep on and keep apologizing for exaggerating but continue to say the price has dropped further then it actually has. Here's a clue. Don't respond to my comments if you don't want a response. You're like the girl in the relationship that want to get the last word in. Give it a rest.

No they won't. Canon and Nikon own the market right now. "In DSLRs, Canon was 1st with a 57.4% market share. Nikon and Ricoh (which makes Pentax DSLRs) came in 2nd and 3rd with 39.3% and 3.1%, respectively.Canon and Nikon together command a staggering 96.7% of Japanese DSLR sales — a duopoly." The market right now is Canon, Nikon and Sony. Besides your ass where are you getting your info? I suspect you've worked on some cool projects and know your shit but you don't know the hybrid market and get all you info from You Tube. People are holding onto the gear they bought and getting by until the next jump in tech comes out. Video is what pushed people into mirrorless and new gear. S1 and Z6, Z7 are the only cameras that will do 10 bit and 12 bit RAW in full frame. Until Sony catches up people are waiting. Nikon's not going anywhere. If you think Nikon was counting on Z'series body sales to keep the company alive you are really out of touch.

I can't and we can't translate those prices and again the sky is falling and you keep apologizing and then posting the same sorrow. I'm sorry you have to sale your gear but you've jumped into the "I hate Nikon" group for the odd reason that you can't sell your gear. Selling used gear is not for everyone and I actually bought my Z6 used with 50 f1.8 for 2K two months ago. The seller needed the money and made me a great offer. The A9 is $1,200 off it'e retail price and the Gh5 has dropped how much? And yes Nikon has made some bad choices and they have to deal with long tongue liars making false claims about a camera they never used or just to hurt the Nikon brand. Ebay listings - https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2380057.m570.l1313.TR12.TRC2.A0.H0.Xnikon+z6.TRS0&_nkw=nikon+z6&_sacat=0 The Z6 is holding it's new price and does not reflect your comments. Do some research on the Z6 film makers kit. I'll see you in the Shooting RAW forum when the Z6 update comes out. We'll let you in even though your GH5 will never be discussed on those pages. Lol.

The Z6 is better for video then the Z7 because of no crop on the Z6 and sensor read out. Don't worry about the recall because Nikon is fixing a issue that NO ONE has complained about or even noticed. Nikon has class and Sony and other blame user error or don't even address camera issues. I could create a list but you guys know who's who. One example is the GH5 poor ass AF never got fixed.

Post link to these great "like new" sales on the Z series. What's the price of the GH5 right now or EOS-R? You basically are saying the same-thing that you said sorry for.

Do you really listen to Tony and his wife? Nikon sales have rebounded after the drop and why listen to people paid by Sony? My cameras not affected. Good luck!

Nothing personal to you and my comment to your post. I don't take comments personal if people don't agree with me. My comment was for calling it a recall when its a "service advisory" were they are fixing the issue. I'm sorry you have to sell the camera but as the v2.0 firmware is out and what it addressed makes the Z6 and Z7 much better in the AF department not just Eye AF. I mentioned Sony because I have the A6500 and had overhearing issues since day one. And if Sony haters attacked Sony for this issues sales would plummet. See how it's not mentioned about Sony and our heating? If it was Nikon what would people say? Most people on here haven't used the Z6 or Z7 but have very strong opinions. I've looked up Z6 prices and don't see the fallen prices that you seem panicked about. When have I ever mentioned buyers remorse ? Geoff_L is the one freaking out. I got a good deal on my Z6 and love the camera. How does the 24-70 f4 compare to the 50 f1.8 S in quality? I used the 24-70 f4 for a few testing days before fitting the Z6 / 50 f1.8. What was the "D600 desaster"? and did you have any VR issues? I haven't heard any VR issues on the internet except when people were running VR and IBIS at the sea-time. I wonder if the VR issues conflicted with the v2.0 update.

It looks like the flicker happens once you change ISO and then goes away.

It's not a product recall. Do you follow fat Ken or what? Do some research on the service - advisory before making post abut it. If you think the sky is falling then I can't help ya. Sony cameras overheat all day long and no recall or service advisory fix. The Sony A7III has the same VR jitters as the Z series if you have IBIS and VR n at the same-time, but Sony does nothing about it. How do you set this up? The update is a great one.

Where is the Z6 vs footage?

You can make great LUTS for the Z6 thru Resolve. My vote goes toward the Nikon Z6. It's a better camera and video camera then the A7II which is about to be old news and is already behind the Z6.

You win the "best post today" award. Great post.

For all the BM P4K owners - what's the cost to purchase and get the P4K up and running? I like the picture it produces and need to see how this might fit into my master plan. The Z6 is getting the Eye AF update and I might sell the Z6 if the P4K is available.

A big difference in Apple and BM. Apple iPhones and iOS are stable and have been forever. BM- resolve is still us stability issues. Even the Ursa mini and cameras are labeled as unreliable for big productions. Because BM only makes Resolve that makes it very difficult to beat Premier Pro and Adobe. Adobe's subscription model has been around for years now and you get everything from After Effects to Photoshop to Premier and 10 other programs. There is ZERO market research that Resolve is headed for the #1 NLE spot or even preferred over Premier and FCP-X. Like I said for color grading Resolve is great and is used to create LUT's and then editing is finished in FCPX.

What makes you think Resolve will be the #1 NLE choice anytime soon? For production houses sure but average Joe will always default to Premier Pro. Even Sony's NLE probably get's more new users then Resolve. I do love Resolves color grading tools. Resolve is not and has stability issues in the past that everyone complains about. Is BM a software company? No they are not. I don't want Apple or Adobe making cine cameras either.

You have that little "I" button that brings up short cuts on the display screen. And can't you assign AF-s and AF-C to the two buttons in front by the lens ring? Why should I have to learn a new editing program so I can use bRAW? Why? Isn't that doing what BM wants and not what you want? No ones forcing you to use Apple products or use Resolve. They are both doing the same-thing. If you are serious about editing and film making either one will. get the job done. Resolve is lacking in a lot of ways so much so that they've started copying FCPX. Apple will open Pro Res RAW up to other editing systems in time. Calm down and keep your cool.

And what program do you use to edit B-RAW from BM? There's only one for that one also. Do you need a hint? The same train of thought goes for B-Raw as a non starter.

I read the comments below the article and why are so many people missing the fact that Resolve and Premier and almost all cine cameras already support Apple Pro Res? I understand Pro Res RAW would be an additional license but that's only because its new. Sony cine cameras already use Pro Res RAW so not sure what app the complaining is about.

What's wrong with ProRes Raw? Done know enough about it yet? As much as Quicktime gives us in various codecs I would think Pro Res would be welcomed. Especially since Red holds the keys.

How is this merely speculation? This would mean any announcement from any camera company is merely speculation. The evidence is from Nikon and Atomos. https://www.redsharknews.com/production/item/6159-nikon-adds-12-bit-raw-output-to-z-7-and-z-6 The C200 is not a hybrid camera and it's price tag and what you get from the BM Ursa Min 4.6 and EVA-1, some would say this puts the C200 behind those camera.

Most people have been hostile in response to Nikon Z6 and it doing 12 bit Raw external. Why? That should be a good thing for everyone. I know for a fact the Z6 4K video even at 8 bit is better then the A7III's video and I know for a fact that it compares to the C200 that was used at the same place with the same talent. That's not saying the Z6 is better or even as good but just what I can tell you based on footage between the two cameras. As far as having other cameras that do decent 4K comment. What? and what cameras? The GH5 does very good 4K but at what coast with the speed booster and glass you have to buy. The P4K is great but went I went to order one no-one had the P4K in stock. Sony's 4K sucks, Fuji no and Panasonic S1 is great but is even priced higher then the Z6 by over $1,000. The EOS R looks good but the 1.8 crop shouldn't even be happening and no way they get away with that in the next builds.

That's not 100% true that most people prefer the EOS R over the Z6. Most people have not shot with both cameras and are biased anyway. There is no "more film like" with the EOS R and the footage proves that without a shadow of a doubt. I use my eyes and my eyes don't say the EOS R is more film like then the Z^. In fact the EOS R has issues with washed out highlights and the Z6 does not. I will look into the EOS R more my self because I haven't invested into Nikon yet besides the Z6 and 50mm 1.8.

My bad.

I watch the video comparing the two and he said the EOS R cropped 1.8 in 1080p - at the 09:49 mark.
