Simon Young Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 This guy shot the whole thing with the Nikon Z7. For those of you who don’t understand German: the talking head parts is shot with the kit zoom at 70mm, autofocus with face detection on, flat profile. Looks promising... great skin tones and the focus doesn’t seem to shift. After 20 minutes of internal 4K recording, the battery was at 90%.

Yurolov Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 Great color and skintones. Can't get that with Sony. Autofocus looks good too. Nice and smooth. Simon Young 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe not, but Sony's gotten much better with Mark III. The following screen grabs shot in fluorescent/daylight mixed, no color correction in post. I'm sure someone with more talent could get even better results! image 1 image 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gethin Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 finally found some z6 footage. Only looked on my laptop so far. It doesn't have a lot of magic, (in fact the 1080 looked nicer to me than the 4K), but it doesn't have anything that screams terrible. I always found the d5300 vid looked miles better underexposed a bit.

Simon Young Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 I really hope that Is from the Nikon Z6. Looks pretty special to me, beautiful Nikon colors. And that 1080p is SUPER CLEAN. I’m mostly worried about the rolling shutter by now. It would also be shitty if it doesn’t support exFAT32 and splits the file into 4gb pieces.

Yurolov Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 AF looks bang on. The IBIS in the video above looked good as well. I get that Sony footage can be massaged to look ok, but just straight out the colours here are looking great in pretty harsh conditions.

Simon Young Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 The Z6 and the Atomos Ninja V might be the best compact documentary setup in 2018-2019 for quick delivery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But looks to me that girl has something very natural in comparison with many other beauty models (for example, last seen models in BMPocket thread) - so maybe she draws my attention too much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonpais Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 The Dixie Dixon video is nice and all, but I'm not seeing anything to write home about as far as skin tones go. Seeing a lot of out-of-focus shots as well. Sony, no color correction in post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Castorp Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 I don't understand why there are complaints about Nikon Z's line up of lenses. The specs don't look as exciting as say Canon R's launch line up but seem more usable and affordable to me. The MTF numbers are crazy good. If true the f1.8 primes are monsters. I'd rather they launch with lenses good for general purpose photography, like an f.8 prime, than exotic specialist stuff like f1.2 (scheduled to appear in a couple years).

I think Nikon should release some f/8 primes too! Forget the computer-generated MTF charts: none of the videos released yet convince me the new S line lenses are in any way superior to what I'm seeing with the Sony G or Voigtlanders.
