wait i actually just found that out yesterday and told carley the exact same thing today 😂
Iphone 15 pro max?
Wow smart as$
@@shivanshlal3904 huh?
Because of the FF sensor, I bought mine to be used as a pro level webcam during COVID. We still use it with an old f 50mm 1.8 for weekends and vacations. This says a lot since I have a Z9 and an 850 on the shelf. the Z5 is lightweight and the image quality is good however you need to be an experienced Nikon user to work with the autofocus in 2024. I find the challenge of using it fun.
we love the portability of the z5 compared to those bigger cameras too!
i am notice z5 colour looking one step up to the z6..same as 5d iv colours.only i have issue in slow focus and back focus.if nikon can soive this then amazing camera for weddings.bcoz z6 had 1 card slot and costly.
that’s the biggest reason we choose the z5 over the z6!
How about vedio for Z5 case
what do you mean? a case for the z5?
I thought you didn't have an office anymore
I don't... it's a bedroom
I love my Nikon Z5!
us too 🫶🏼
Great video! Will definitely be adding these!
yes you will! 😤🫶🏼
These are great - thanks so much Matt. Was the word candid - love those in the moment photos.
CANDID! ahaha i was losing my mind. thank you! that’s exactly the word i was looking for 🫶🏼
Just bought an a7iii, think I might exchange for this. Thank you!
my pleasure! we love our fx30s 😎❤️
Beautiful!
thank you 🫶🏼
Excellent as always❤
❤❤
My current wedding kit is a Z5 and D750. I’m selling my d750 to get another Z series camera. Something I’m struggling with is do I go with another Z5 or get a Z6ii? I’m wanting to get into highlight videos which would be 60fps/1080p clips through out the wedding day. I’m leaning toward another z5 just because I don’t want to start using/buying CF cards. Thoughts?
the reason we never upgraded any of our z5s to the z6 series was exactly for that reason! we have tons of SD cards and have no desire to start spending an extra few hundred on CF cards… that’s why we have 3 z5s! to your point about highlight videos, we actually just committed to moving our videos to sony 🫢 i just found that using a system that was already known for phenomenal video was more up to our standard of video that we would want to deliver!
That makes total sense! Unfortunately at the moment I don’t have the funds to or want to use two systems. It seems like the Z5 has the capabilities that I need without having to move over to the Z6ii or higher. As for photos, the Z5 is amazing, especially at the price point. I truly don’t see a reason to move up the rankings for photos unless it’s low light, high speed sports. Families and weddings, the Z5 is perfect!
you are wonderful ❤
you are wonderful ❤
❤❤
Theres any tip to improve autofocus in low light?
fast lenses or stationary studio lights would be my suggestion! we’ve got a few 1.4 prime lenses that reaaaally help in low light situations
Nice video! Very excited to see the upcoming tests!
where is yours? 😈
Love this lens!
never get tired of it 😍
Good video. I run my photo business with two Z6ii's (similar). People complain about older cameras, but like you, I find the AFC great and even in fast moving events, low light and gigs, I very seldom ever miss focus. I'm sticking with my two older bodies for the foreseeable future. Z 8 and 9 too big and far too expensive here in Australia. They killed off the new 6iii with that horrible selfie screen, and the ZF is too retro and has the same awful, deal-breaker screen. Unless they bring out something close to my two Z6ii's, I aint going nowhere.
agreed (for the most part); we’re sony users when it comes to video and the z6iii screen is a huge bonus in our minds and we’re considering picking one up in the future!
S2 I just love full frame
Why the hack are you shooting in 6400 when its so bright outisde?
2 reasons: i had just been shooting inside and wasn’t paying attention 😅 and it was actually dusk and a lot darker than it looks on cam!
In 2 weeks im getting one in perfect new conditikn. Im still keeping my a7s 1 though. Next year the mark3 is my goal. Iv been seeing them a little over 2k
i would LOVE to get my hands on the a7s3, i think the goal is getting one this year!
Got it. Perfect good almost like new condition. Had 3339 shutter counts. Im still keeping the OG. That camera is still really good.
I was expecting your low light test to be indoors not outdoors during the day😭
it wasn’t a low light test 😋 it was testing the dual base iso theory that anything over 2500 is unusable… which is clearly untrue!
@@carleyandmatt To be fair when someone says low light, it would be a not well lit scene!😂 I was looking for someone else to find out that shooting at 6400 iso during low light situation is more than usable. My Big 12 Championship video was shot at 1/125 F4 at 6400 iso for night shots! Been trying to break the APSC in low light is bad narrative to people
No battery indicator to me would be a deal breaker unfortunately. Maybe the Portkeys PT6 instead then
I found out quite recently after I made the video that there is indeed a battery indicator… so there is one and it’s great!
May you all be successful🪐🤍
🤍🌻🥲
Which picutre profile do you use bro please
pp8! slog2 works best with this 8bit camera i promise!
Thanks for the great video. Have you noticed the levels of your metering tools changing while adjusting your brightness or contrast on the monitor itself? Not sure if I have a faulty unit or not but mine suffers from this issue. Waveform, false color, histogram shift up and down while adjusting brightness/contrast. Can't judge exposure reliably this way!!
I’ve actually noticed my unit doing this recently as well! I’m not entirely sure what’s at fault… Maybe worth reaching out to Desview?
Great video. Do you film your weddings in Slog3 or Scinetone?
Slog3! i know cinetone could save a lot of time on the grading side but i just love the colour grading process.
i like the z5 the cheapest full frame with IBIS. very versatile camera and still affordable. but after some thinking. z5 + ftz + 50mm 1.8 = around 1kg or z5 + 50mm 1.8s = around 1kg same big and long with FTZ + 50mm G/D lens. one of the reason people switch to mirroless is the weight right? compare it with d600 + 50mm 1.8G = guess what? 1kg and the lens actually shorter because it dont need adapter. plus d600 battery can shot 2 or 3times of z5 that mean you dont have to bring extra battery. i think nikon made a mistakes with z5, it should have been lighter, with battery life like a7iii, the 50mm s lens is a big mistakes, the canon rf can smaller. its laziness in lens design.
fair enough! weight was not one of the factors for switching from the d600 to the z5, but rather because of all the other added benefits that mirrorless provides!
I just got this camera! What lenses do you recommend for wedding/branding photography:??
we have a video in the works that covers our exact lenses we use with our z5’s but for now our favourites and recommendations for weddings are: - sigma 35 1.4 - sigma 50 1.4 - nikon 70-200 2.8 honestly, i could shoot a full wedding day with just those 3!
Oh thank you! And I can put the sigma lenses on the Nikon z 5? lol told you I’m a beginner 😅
@@saban.2686 as long as the sigma lenses are nikon f mount AND you have the FTZ adaptor you’re good to go!
How did this video not go viral (can y’all comment)
we don’t know 😭
Is a z6iii in your future ?
i would be lying if i said no! my one hesitation thus far is that it does not dual record for video, so i think i might wait until nikon addresses that in a future firmware update (if they even do?)
The viltrox Z mount lenses is what brings it to love for me.
i should give those a whirl! we love the viltrox primes on our sony aps-c cams
What's with the music playing while you're demoing an audio treatment feature?🤔🤨
i like background music 🎶
Is there any suggestions about autofocus? I attached my sony a7sii on gimble , but autofocus it slow , thats why i always choose to shoot handheld....wit 50 mm 1.8 So my question is Which lens is best for autofocus?
i have found that autofocus is a challenge with all lenses on the a7s2! it is an unfortunate drawback to using this camera…
I use the z5 and the z6ii. The z5 is a nice camera!
so nice, we bought it thrice! 💪🏼
His face said it all. You both will cherish very happy memories together. Maybe even grow your family together. I hope you both had the best day ever. And even he said he wasn’t going to cry even the most coldest man will leave a tear seeing there beautiful wife walking down the aisle. I wish both of you grow old together and every challenge you face you both will get out of it. Have the best many years together!💗
Sony a7 s2 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I like the z5, I think it's underrated. it's just a basic no frills mirrorless full frame camera that reminds me of my d750. I basically consider it just a mirrorless d750 tbh.
I've heard it referred to as such! I think the z5 wins over the d750 for me simply based on the mirrorless aspect.
@@carleyandmatt same for me. I think its crazy how positive the image of the d750 is and how much people are sleeping on the z5. Its a great camera and has way better video specs than the d750 too.
i use the z5 too for wedding and event, still eyeing the Z lens for fastautofocus,, coz now i still use with the adapter
we’re considering buying at least one Z lens just to see how much of a difference not using the adaptor makes!
@@carleyandmatt you should, my friend try the 40mm F.2 the focus is very fast, and the 50mm f.18 S is very2 good
@@carleyandmatt I just picked up the 50 1.2S and you will NOT be sorry. It's so dreamy and magical! the 1.8 version is great too. The 24-70 f2.8S is incredible as well. Using a Z6ii and Z5 as backup. Great cameras!
@@BlaineShillington amazon prime days are coming up, gonna make sure our cart is full! 😆
1. Why not question what the best options are? 2. There are dual card slots available in most camera brands. 3. Your point about lenses can be true for literally any lens type or brand. 4. Tilt and touch screen is not unique to Nikon -- nor is it perfected by Nikon. If this goal is to inform people considering Nikon as you said in the beginning, this feels pretty disingenuous since nothing you said is actually unique to Nikon or the Z5.
fair enough! i still think all reasons stated in the video are fair; the purpose was not to make a unique video but as stated IN the video was to talk about why we use the z5 in case someone else is considering it! thanks brah 💪🏼
I hate that people like you exist.
@@carleyandmatt - my first Nikon was an F2 in 1975. At that time, over 80% of photographers classified as "photojournalist" (photojournalists, documentary, sports, wedding, ... all, generally, outside a studio) worldwide, shot Nikon. No that did not start 100 years ago, but the early 1950s started for "Nippon Kogaku" (Japan Optical Inc. Ltd.) the building of what would become Nikon, later on. When, in the Interbellum, Canon started to make cameras, these got bundled with lenses by Nippon Kogaku, because C.anon had no idea how to design and make lenses. Professionally, I shot 95% Hasselblad (Zeiss only lenses) and large format (Zeiss, Schneider, Rodenstock, Nikon), and 35mm for specialised work. Reasons to choose Nikon were the excellent lenses, robustness/reliability, and a worldwide warranty/support system, all at a lower price than e.g. Leica. When I bought the F2, I had tested the (Asahi) Pentax 6x7, Leica M4, and a few other cameras. In 2012, I moved to digital "full frame" (i.e. small format) and started to replace my pro prime lenses by new 1.4G and later. Over all the years, until the Z system, my main pet peeves with Nikon had been: (1) chromatic aberration, (2) tint differences between lenses. "Digital" added a third one, (3) total reflection between sensor and OLPF. So when rumours built that Nikon was going to release a new ML system with new lenses, I started broadcasting this around. More sharpness is lower on my "wants" list than the "needs" of solving my pet peeves. Already in 2012, Nikon solved (3) by Eliminating the OLPF from the D800 (36MP) in the D800E version. Compare the best F-mount lens in DxO Mark on the D800 to the identical D800E except the absence of the OLPF. The difference may shock you. "We" potentially pay for OLPF absence when vendors of raw processing software don;t live up to the Bayer paradigm. We get more noise because these hackers don't do deBayerisation properly and we may end up with some Bayer noise - called luminance noise or colour noise by the naive, thus giving excuses to software hackers to not improve their products. Since Topaz DeNoise AI and Gigapixel AI, etc., we can fix that, and DxO (software company, not the "Mark" business) addressed Bayer noise in PhotoLab (ACR & LrC competitor) but since most photographers have Photoshop (hence ACR/LrC), DxO spun their DeepPRIME out into a stand-alone (ACR/LrC plug-in) product called PureRAW. No need for OLPF any longer to help deBayerisation. As Nikon remove the OLPF above 36MP, I migrated from D to Z from 24MP to 45MP. This is why I would not buy a Z 5, Z 6(ii,iii) or Z f - all have an OLPF. The Z lenses are sharper, but most important, they silenced my recurring rant on chromatic aberration. I sold all my "G" or "E" lenses and kept a few of the extremely soft ones. Maybe Nikon solved tint differences in software,, in the Z system, but it's gone, while the F-mount lenses still got that. This, by the way, is an important reason for me to stick to Nikon Z "S" class lenses only. Applying a profile in post is easy, but anything I don't have to do helps a lot. After 10 years of professional photography, I went back to academia and studied CS with AI software engineering, that I lectured subsequently. Next I moved on into the technology domain. This taught me that redundancy in data storage does not mean data are protected very well, in terms of integrity. Two card slots can be written to by the same I/O controller chip and if the chip (its firmware) has a glitch, it can helix [1] up two cards at the same time. My motto is, when you think you need two card slots, you need two cameras. I would shoot weddings with two cameras anyway - with different lenses mounted to them. No lens swaps. Just take the other camera. And spread/mitigate the risk. In 1980, we would shoot a wedding "reportage", delivering about 100 prints to the client, from at most 120 shots. A lot was photographer directed and, hence, posed. You may now have guessed correctly that my first Nikon ML was a Z 7 - true. Its "recognition AI AF" however was limited and it did not give me the keeper rate I was looking for. Yes, I shoot predominantly as old-film-school shooter and do not need thousands of shots per day. This is a matter of having trained the brain to see photographs (2D depictions of the 3D world from a point of view with matching perspective) before you shoot them. "Digital" does not help you develop that cognitively. You'll need about 10,000 conscious shots to do the training, so you could do that in a couple days or weeks, maybe. When a contemporary photographer comes back home from a day's high-fashion shoot with 3,500 shutter clicks and tells me that he had between 1 and 3 usable images, my count is 350 in two days and 50% usable at client requirement level. But, the eye/face recognition did not give me the focusing speed I want and so I upgraded to the Z 7ii. Which also did not have what I needed. A couple months ago, I replaced that one by a Z 8 and it is the first Nikon that puts a smile on my face since the F2. Also in low light, it is rock solid and fast. If you shoot landscapes or products, then the Z 7 or Z 7ii are fine and no Z 8 will give better images. In studio shoots of products, I might use photosite (sensor) shift shooting and then the Z 8 does better. As to your choice of SD cards, there is a lot of junk in that market segment. Note that memory cells in flash memory (cards, SSD) wear down from each rewrite (called P/E cycle by the electrical engineer). Your "EVO" SSD may offer 300 P/E cycles and its "PRO" sibling 3,000 P/E cycles. My CFexpress Type B cards offer 30,000 P/E cycles. Where your SD cards are? As proper memory cards do "wear levelling" they keep track of how many times each block of memory was rewritten - in a piece of hidden memory, specific for the I/O controller. Tool apps exist that can read into this and these can inform you how "healthy" your memory cards are. Sell your cards when they are about 50%, I would say. Note that at some point the I/O controller in the card starts to mark blocks as "bad" and this (a) reduces card capacity available to you, (b) speeds up wear as there is less capacity. In the end of the day, I may not need the fastest cards in camera, but copying the data from them to the post office takes time. If that is not too long to want to figure out what else to do in the meantime then a faster card reduces your wait time. My dual CFeB slot Sonnet Thunderbolt card reader cannot be beat at that. The Z 8 is not about better images. That choice does not help to get my images into the National Art Gallery. It will not be the decisive factor to a future bride to buy your services. She wil make the decision based on your confidence, based on her perception that you will make her look like a supermodel in your images of her. And believe me, she wil never see "beautiful bokeh". So it is about the person behind the camera and their vision. In my case, the Z 8 helps increase the keeper rate and reduce the need to shoot another shot because there was one out of focus. (Happened a lot with the D camera and 1.4G lenses. Single point AF and recomposing never worked well at f/1.4. Their extreme sharpness gives shallower DoF, hence the problem. And shifting the AF point around in the frame slows me down too much. It's a distraction.) The Z 8 has exceptional recognition AI AF and phenomenal 3D tracking. Recomposing with 3D tracking - wow. In a slower approach to wedding photography, you never need a fast camera, like in the old film days. In that sense, a Z 5 is an excellent choice and great migration strategy. If you find yourself struggling to adjust magenta blur on noses and cheeks, or poison green rims on ears, that's chromatic aberration. Move to "S" class Z lenses and it's over. Note that migrating from 24MP to 45MP means you need more storage capacity and a faster computer. All of a sudden, my Windows PC frequently magically halted (without blue screen, even) when I started editing 45MP frames using 2 displays of 4K. That was never a problem, until 45MP. Between Adobe and Microsoft we can debate who has the worst software engineers, memory management, scalability, robustness, etc. I now keep an expensive notebook computer in the studio for tethered shooting - and it does nothing else. The post office does with a 16 core workstation with 64GB RAM of the lowest latency, several direct attached RAID arrays, in part via a PCIe adapter that unlocks CPU I/O lanes directly thus bypassing the South Bridge bottleneck, and a graphics card with 11GB of video RAM. And 2 displays of 4K. This workstation can run anything I want concurrently. I frequently exceed the 32GB RAM level (by far) and aMeSs-Windoes tries to run everything "graphics accelerated" - like Windows (file) Explorer that will keep the large icons of loads of image folders in GPU RAM, in case you want to open one. Running benchmarks after I built it, took this build to the 98th percentile without any overclocking - between gamer PCs that had been overclocked a lot. I prefer robust reliability. "We" measure resolution in "linear" units (1 dimensional): Dots per Inch, Pixels per Inch, LinePairs per millimetre. Because this directly relates resolution to how we perceive it. If you want better then you need to double linearly. Doubling a sensor of X*Y=MP linearly then means you get 2X*2Y=4MP. Go from 300 DPI to 600 DPI and that's what happens there too. So 96MP is twice as good as 24MP? Yes, if we meet the "ceteris paribus" requirement and have lenses that can resolve both, and have eyes/brain that can see the difference. In the case of Nikon, between 24MP and 45MP, the ceteris paribus is violated as one has the OLPF and the other has not. Oh, part of the softness in your images may be due to the OLPF in your camera. You may lose that softness if a higher res camera has no OLPF. [1] a helix is a screw

The FX30 is great, I even bought one while owning an X-H2s. It just makes my life easier for corporate jobs etc. for spec work or more creative jobs I still use my Fuji though! Great video!
i have no regrets buying 2 of them! 🔥💪🏼
Love the FX30! Such a great cam, and I agree with your points. Please put out more fx30 videos
