    I find Nikon Jpegs to be pretty good if you going for the natural look straight from the camera. The Rich Tone Portrait preset is pretty good. I personally always shoot RAW. I tried to do Jpegs, but many times end up wanting a different look later and RAW give me more flexibility with a couple clicks. I use Nikon's own NX Studio Raw editor so it has the default preset. Nikon got the image quality and the quality lenses. If they update the film simulation soon it will be a massive hit.

    • @ZachMayfield
      @ZachMayfield  Před 3 měsíci +2

      I gotchu! agreed that Nikon gives a very nice natural look for sure

  • @scottfillmer
    @scottfillmer Před 2 měsíci +1

    I'm a little confused by you adding "film simulations" to the Zf... it does come with 20-ish "Picture Controls," and they can be customized. Not to the extent that the film simulations can be on Fujifilm, and yeah, Nikon totally skipped the grain, but they're not that bad. Totally wish Nikon would give us extensive customization with what they call Picture Controls, including grain, but I'll take what I can get, I love the full frame and Nikon colors. My theory on the grain is that the Nikon IQ is SO clean and crisp, they don't want people "messing it up" with grain haha. Import into LR using "in camera preset" option and you get the Nikon Picture Control on the RAW NEF and baked into the JPG, best of both!

  • @HubraumTV
    @HubraumTV Před měsícem +1

    Didn't Nikon announced a system similar as Lumix with their LUTs where you can just download film recipes?
    I think it's only available for the Z6 III but will come to the other Z's later on

  • @bradmiller9993
    @bradmiller9993 Před měsícem

    The lack of viewfinder doesn't put me off too much; after all, my iPhone doesn't have one either and I shoot plenty on that. But the lens situation isn't working for me. I'd like to see a compact L mount offering at f2 or better. But the camera is pretty cool. It's on my maybe list since I can't find a fuji.

    Highly recommend the Fuji X100VI. Much improved video capabilities thanks to the IBIS, great photo capabilities, and overall just a fun camera to use. I only use JPG and SOOC photo/video with this camera, which is the complete opposite of every other camera I own.

    @RamusJamus Před 3 měsíci +1

    That custom settings thing is interesting, If i knew about that a couple months ago i wouldve pulled the trigger on this! kind of a silly question but if youre uploading these custom settings through SD then you format your card through the camera will that remove the custom settings? or because you created a new folder the camera wont touch that folder when its formatting the card?
    also also Have you thought about using the nikon Z to E adapter with the ZF?

    • @hamburg_solutions
      @hamburg_solutions Před 2 měsíci +2

      It loads those custom picture controls to the camera (there's 10 slots available). So you can reformat your card after you load them and they will remain.

  • @obscurelines

    They just need a better set of retro lenses. Absolutely sigma need to bring out the i series for Nikon. I ise them on Loint and they are absolutely my favourites.

    • @bsc001
      @bsc001 Před 2 měsíci

      I use the Voigtländer 50 1.2 and 40 1.2 native z-mount, as well as Zeiss Distagon and Planar f-mount via FTZII adapter in mine, a very nice experience. There are also quite a few very good old AF-D lenses, like the 85 1.4, 105 and 135 F2 DC lenses, all going very well with this body. All in MF of course, but they again, this is why I got the Zf as a travel camera.

      As with everything in life, it is subjective. I have large hands, and with smaller lenses, it is decent without the Smallrig grip. Add that grip, and it feels good even with longer lenses. Generally, one anyway supports larger lenses with the left-hand, so it is a non-issue. I mean, it has better ergos than the Leica M-series, for example, and people don’t complain about those :)
