Recently updated from by Z 6II and couldn't be happier. So much easier to capture sports with the Z 6 III

I had my doubts about mirrorless cameras but this sweet little gem has convinced me. Fast, light and spot on, even in low light. A wonderful addition to my equipment.

Just got out to our local County Fair to try this new camera. It will take a little time to figure it out but right now I am loving this camera. The results are stunning in low light with out a flash and I can not wait to try indoors sports like basketball and volleyball.

I love this camera and the kit it came with. I am a beginner photographer and believe this is a great camera to grow my skills with.

Camera is amazing but this bundle is inconvenient. Black battery does not work. Doesn't charge in the camera by hooking it up like it says in the manual. It did not come with an external charger. The camera bag is tiny. Cannot fit camera and lens in it together.

I am still learning but loving the camera and lens. The extra battery that was sent says it is not compatible with the camera. I wanted to have that extra battery but it is not working.

You'd do well to read some of the many professional reviews out there, but this lives up to the hype so far. 240 fps in full HD is everything I wanted, and it has many other advanced features to help me get the shot. I wish the sensor had a few more megapixels so the DX crop could be a bit more than 10 MP; if you're moving up from a DX camera, make sure you have some FX lenses to use or be ready to drop some cash on new lenses. The eye sensor is a little flaky sometimes, being a bit too sensitive to dust, and not quite working well with rain covers.

The Nikon Z6 III is a beast of a camera. I genuinely loved all the accessories that came with this bundle. The monopod is of great quality, as is the microphone, and the battery and charger work fine. Although the battery has a USB-C port, it does not work as a dummy battery.

I'm so impressed with the recording capabilities of this camera; I can finally step up my video production services to next level and everything is done internally at 6K/60fps with no cropping which is very impressive. The new camera features like the auto focus have been greatly improved over the Nikon Z6ii, I really love the new 3D tracking and how to camera is able to grab the eyes in low situations!

Very solid camera for both video and stills. The Nikon companion apps leave a lot to be desired. Especially when compared Sony. Raw video files have a subtle flickering problem in the deep shadows. +1 for Nikon lenses. AF tracking is solid but not amazing. It's my first camera and overall I'm happy with it.

The autofocus accuracy and speed is impressive in this camera. Really delivers. I own a Z7II that was used for wildlife but the Z6III easily replaced it. I miss the disable viewfinder when screen is open like the previous models had. Firmware update?

Firmware 2.0 for Z6III draws on the power and speed of EXPEED 7 to enhance performance and add features, including [Birds] mode, Auto Capture, in-camera focus limiting, a new workflow for Pixel Shift shooting, compatibility with NX Field and a cutting-edge solution to help you prove the authenticity of your photos. Download directly to your camera.

Incredible autofocus. Blistering speed. 6K/60p internal RAW + 240p HD video.
The new Nikon Z6 III is a camera designed to elevate anyone’s photography and videography to professional grade. With Nikon’s newest tech and impressive design, the Z6 III camera makes a promise to perform the best in any shooting scenario.
World’s first partially-stacked CMOS sensor integrates high-speed data processing circuits, resulting in an approx 3.5X faster readout speed compared to the Z6II.

High-speed sensor unlocks super-fast continuous shooting and ultra high shutter speeds, without sacrificing viewfinder experience.

High-speed C30/C60/C120 modes also available in Pre-Release Capture.
Maximum buffer of 1000+ shots.
Freeze the fastest action.
Smooth, detailed live view, with max 120 fps refresh rate.
Say bye to unwanted blur with the Nikon Z6 III’s 8 stops of Built-In Image Stabilization and focus point VR. Shoot handheld freely knowing that the camera you’re using ensures sharpness and stability in every move.

This capability exhibited by the Nikon Z6 III pours rich detail and vibrant colors into your every video. On top of that, everything is captured in 6K resolution. Professional-level videos coming right up!
The Z6 III comes with multiple options for video quality and frame rates. The oversampled 4K gives sharp 4K footage and captures more detail than the typical 4K. The 120p and 420p frame rates help the smoothness of slow-motion videos. With the Z6 III, creative storytelling is done in more ways than one.
This new camera from Nikon offers up to 2x digital zoom when recording in HD. During 4K recording, it can zoom up to 1.4x — without sacrificing quality or needing additional lenses.
Professional video production is not just about the visuals, it’s also about the audio and control. Lucky for you, the Nikon Z6 III has line-in audio and professional monitoring tools.

Utilize an ISO range of 100 to 64000, expandable to ISO 204800. Such a broad ISO range lets you take stunning photos and shots in bright daylight and darker settings. Its expanded range is particularly useful for night photographers.

The built-in Deep Learning Technology in the Nikon Z6 III allows for Multi-Subject Recognition. It can detect and focus on multiple subjects all at the same time, even in the most dynamic settings.

Compared to its predecessor the Z6 II, the Z6 III has a quicker autofocus. It can even detect human faces that only occupy 3% of the frame!
Use Touch Fn to adjust focus point on LCD while shooting with the EVF.
Subject detection available in auto and manual focus modes.
Reliable autofocus for backlit subjects.
People, dogs, cats, birds, airplanes, cars, motorcycles, bicycles and trains.

Nail the decisive moment with confidence. Just hold the shutter release button halfway to activate Pre-Release Capture, and the Z6III will start buffering images. JPEG files can be saved up to one second before and up to three seconds after the shutter button is fully pressed to take a photo.

The Z6 III is a trusty companion even in low light conditions. It can focus accurately and extremely well even in lighting similar to dim moonlight.
Use Portrait Impression Balance to take precise control over hue and brightness.
Human and animal face and eye-detection AF in Auto-area AF, 3D-tracking, Wide-area AF and Subject-tracking AF modes.
- Rich Tone Portrait
- Flat Monochrome
- Deep Tone Monochrome

Using the NX Studio Software by Nikon, users can create and upload custom color profiles to quickly achieve their desired look and feel in-camera.

The Z6 III has an EVF that commands a brightness of 4000 nits, delivers 5760k-dot resolution, has a 120fps max refresh rate, and reproduces colors with an expanded color gamut (DCI-P3). All those features come together to produce colors accurately, while keeping every detail clear and smooth.

Touch-sensitive 3.2 in Vari-angle display with 170-degree viewing angle.
Magnesium alloy and Sereebo™ body rated to operate down to 10°C/14°F, with the same level of dust—and drip-resistance as our professional Z8.
SD UHS-II + CFexpress (Type B)/XQD slots for backup, overflow, or when you want to keep file types separate.
MB-N14 Power Battery Pack (sold separately) replicates key controls for vertical shooting.
Enjoy the convenience of in-camera battery charging11 and USB power for extended shooting.

Nikon Imaging Cloud is a complimentary cloud service that expands the capabilities and connectivity of your Z6III.

Give your photos and videos a distinctive look with Cloud Picture Control presets downloaded directly to your camera.
Upload full-resolution image files to your preferred cloud storage sites, right from the camera.
Keep your camera features up to date with firmware upgrades sent directly from the cloud.
