Nikon Z6 III Mirrorless Camera

• Pre-Release Capture at up to 120 fps helps make decisive moment shots easier by recording frames in a burst for up to a second prior to actually releasing the shutter. When this feature is activated, burst shooting will commence when the shutter is half-pressed and the buffer will retain up to 4 seconds’ worth of frames after fully pressing the shutter.
• Electronic shutter affords a top shutter speed of 1/16,000 sec for working in the brightest conditions with wider apertures.

This focusing system also supports working in low-light conditions with a Starlight mode that permits focusing down to -10 EV to greatly benefit astrophotography, concert, and other nighttime shooting applications. Featuring the highest native ISO in a Z-series camera at ISO 64000, the autofocus is also useful for working in difficult lighting conditions. The Backlit AF function uses separate pixels on the sensor that allows these areas to intentionally overexpose for focusing accuracy purposes without impacting the actual exposure of the recorded image.

Perfect for portraits, the Z6 III improves on the partially-stacked sensor’s inherent capabilities with a series of processing tools and shooting functions to improve portraits:

• Portrait mode processes portraits for skin with natural texture and a rounded feel
• Rich Tone Portrait mode, a picture mode that produces more vivid results while capturing details of the subject’s complexion and avoiding loss of detail in the highlights
• Flat Monochrome mode features gentle gradations from highlights to shadows, producing soft monochrome portraits
• Deep Tone Monochrome mode chooses slightly darker tones in the range from shadows to mid-tones, with brightness rapidly increasing as tones progress from mid-tones to highlights
• Skin softening can be used on up to three subjects in a shot and slightly blurs the skin for a more pleasing texture while still retaining essential sharpness on eyes and hair
• Manual white balance control is more intuitive when making adjustments and Auto WB has also been optimized for human subjects
• Take full advantage of Nikon’s portrait modes by pairing the Z6 III with one of Nikon’s portrait Z lenses, like the 50mm f/1.2 S, the 85mm f/1.2 S, or the 135mm f/1.8 S Plena

The Z6 III’s sensor-processor combo has allowed Nikon to give the Z6 III the brightest electronic viewfinder on any of its cameras. At 4000 nits, it’s 33% brighter than the flagship Z9, making a subject’s details visible even in bright sunlight. Its 5,760,000 dot resolution is also a first for a Nikon EVF, aiding with autofocus by showing the subject recognition square. This EVF also features a high fps function, which ups the EVF’s refresh rate to 120 fps for smoother, lifelike viewing. Finally, the Z6 III’s EVF also features a higher dynamic range and is compatible with a DCI-P3 color gamut – the first of its kind in a mirrorless camera – for approximating real-world color when taking the shot.

• Dual card slots-one CFexpress Type B slot and one UHS-II SD slot-allow for flexible file saving. The CFx slot is suitable for data-intensive applications, like 6K recording and high-speed burst shooting, while the SD slot retains compatibility with the popular storage format. Additionally, the CFx B slot is also compatible with XQD memory cards.
• Pair the Z6 III with the optional MB-N14 Power Battery Pack grip for improved ergonomics when shooting vertical and up to 1.9x the battery life.
• The smaller, lighter design makes the Z6 III an ideal candidate for rigging or use on a gimbal for video use.
• Premium weather sealing protects against dust and moisture for confident use in harsh climates.
• In-body Vibration Reduction now supports Synchro VR to achieve up to 8 stops of camera shake compensation when used with select Z lenses.
