I love everything about this camera. I also bought a zf. Both are powerful

This camera is incredible! The image quality is outstanding and the autofocus is super fast and accurate. Perfect for both photography and video work. Battery life is great and the body feels very solid. Highly recommended for professionals and enthusiasts!

Nikon Z6iii is a game changer. I upgraded from my first DSLR D3200 and this is mindblowing. I am still exploring a lot of new features, but image stabilization, and the videos are extremely great.

This has been my first mirrorless camera and I'm now a mirrorless convert. The battery life is great. IBIS is a game changer for video. Coming from a D780 I love how much smaller and lighter this body is while being just as capable for photos and massively more capable with video. Works great with my existing F-mount lenses on the FTZII adapter.

I am still getting to know this camera. I am not sure if I can justify the price tag when I compare it to my Z50. I am not a YouTuber and I don't use it for recording in any form, this may be where the price would be justified. I don't see it in the pictures, not so far. Keep you posted.
Some of the photos are the Z6III, and some are Z50. Can you tell the difference?

Really happy with my purchase of this camera. The image quality is perfection, as one would expect from Nikon, and the video mode is perfect too. The new partially stacked sensor does incredibly well tracking subjects and pulling focus, even when objects or other people are in front of your subject. If you're shooting in low light, you can get redeemable video footage up to 12,800 ISO (although at that point it just get a little grainy). The low light performance in this camera is way better than previous Z cameras. If you're looking for the perfect hybrid camera, this is it.

If you’ve spent time doing research on your next full-frame camera, you would have landed on this powerhouse of a camera. The Nikon Z6iii is a hybrid video and photo camera that has enough recording settings to pad out the bible - this is a good thing! It is using a partially stacked sensor which ultimately means that the camera is capable of doing things a bit faster - it unlocks better shutter readouts and can take excellent pictures at high frame rates. The pictures come out very detailed and full of color up to about 12800 ISO which would be as far as I push this camera. Also, with the Z6iii you want to shoot to stay perfectly exposed or slightly overexposed. If you use N-Log Raw, I aim for about 1-1.5 stops overexposed to have cleaner shadows. It can hold highlights well, but can lag behind the Nikon Z8, Sony A7 IV and the Canon R6 II/R5 II in shadow detail if the camera is underexposed by about 1 stop on average. That all said, it is still the most robust camera you can buy at this price. No other camera will have internal raw AND 4K120fps in a full frame body. And for the sports/wild life photographers, the ability to capture high frame rates in pictures while in raw. It is THE complete solution.

I upgraded from a Nikon D3200, to a D7200, D7500 and now to this masterpiece of a camera, the AMAZING Z6 III. I never thought falling in love with a camera was possible until now. I've only had the camera for 5 days now but it is incredible. This camera is every photographer's dream. The Z6iii has jaw-dropping resolution, detail, and background blurring ive never seen a camera or lens do before. The digitalized viewfinder is super nice, and if you're familiar with nikons, this camera is super easy to use and figure out, while complex all at the dame time, but in a good way!!! This camera shoots incredibly sharp and well lit photos. It has amazing video recording resolution, great shutter speeds, iso, you name it. I can't wait to hopefully take off with my photography passion and/or start a business in the near future with this outstanding camera. 11/10. This camera is a game-changer. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I researched cameras till I couldn't anymore. The part that gets me is the cost. A price tag of $5000.00 is not out of the realm of possibilities for a decent camera. I wanted a hybrid camera with great photo and video quality. I bounced between the SONY Alphas and the Nikon Z series. As my research continued, I narrowed my results to the Nikon D6III and the Sony Alpha A7 IV. The most compelling part of my research was the fact I could still use my old F-lenses with the Nikon FTZii adaptor. The more YouTube videos I watched about both cameras my choice became clear. Nikon for the WIN! I'm able to use my old F lenses I've spent $1000s on. I was skeptical about an adaptor. However, let me tell you. Nikon doesn't let you down! The autofocus works with my old lenses. The electronic stabilization works! And with my VR 70-300mm lens, even the lens VR mode works! The video quality is amazing! The photo quality is absolutely 100% professional! If you are a novice or an expert photographer, the Nikon D6iii is most certainly a high contender. Nikon reduced the cost with a partially stacked sensor to reduce the cost. However, this camera has capabilities that exceed the Z7, Z8, and Z9 for this price point! I'll probably never use all the features of this camera, like the RAW video and N-log. But it's ALL there if you need it and have a nice editing computer and software like Davinci. It will most certainly cost a whole lot more money with software and CFespress cards to get cinema quality from this camera. However, it has that capality if you need a camera to grow with you.

Early adopter of a Z6. Buy a Z mount camera to shoot Z glass (pretty all of them are a significant step up from F-mount equivalents). Z6III gets autofocus and shooting speed on par with Sony/Cannon. The new semi-stacked sensor and acquisition of RED brings class leading video capabilities in the box without any goofy service center updates or need for external recording. Same trim body that is easy to cart around and just a tad too short for your pinky...throw in an Arca Swiss compatible bracket and you are golden.

The Nikon Z6III might be Nikon’s best all-around hybrid camera for creators who lean heavily into video but still need solid photo performance.
Paired with the 24–70mm f/2.8 and a mist filter, it delivers a clean, cinematic look right out of the box. The internal 6K video gives you plenty of flexibility in post, but the 4k is oversampled too, so amazing quality.
Autofocus has taken a huge step forward over the Z6II, and it's up to par in comparison to other brands. It’s more than reliable for most client work and run-and-gun shoots. But like all AF systems, it has it quirks, and out of the box isn't setup perfect, but a few tweaks and it's money.
Speaking of quirks.
The memory banks are a step backward compared to the Z8. When you power off, the Z6III resets to the saved values instead of keeping your last-used settings, which slows me down if I’m jumping between scenes.
Battery life is solid, and the build quality feels premium without being too bulky. It also plays nice on a gimbal. For solo shooters and travel-focused creatives, the Z6III hits a sweet spot between performance, portability, and price.
24MP is more than enough for video, and I would say it satisfies most photographers too.
Nikon's commitment to firmware updates to add features is a HUGE bonus. Their Kaizen philosophy is what used to make Fujifilm the standard for firmware, but now I give that award to Nikon.

Outstanding camera, love the ergonomics, colors are amazing straight out of the camera, crazy fast and tack sharp. The fully articulating rear display is great

This camera is great! It's great for sports for photography as it gets some of the autofocus features from Z8 and Z9, which makes it super fast and reliable autofocus.
Good to use it for many other things too. It's a great camera for portraits. Great camera for street and landscape photography. It also has very good video capabilities. This is a camera that fits semi to professional but is not the same price tag as the higher resolution Nikon Z cameras are.
Great value. Great overall digital mirrorless camera!

The gentleman that waited on us was very helpful and informative. I love the camera! I was concerned at dropping down to 24.5 megapixels from 45.7 but the images are great. They are less noisy in low light situations. The autofocus is excellent.

Nikon has hit a home run with this camera, they clearly listened to their users and corrected almost every short coming the original and the z6ii had. Imagine quality is near perfect when using Z glass and the increase in buffer capacity makes getting the perfect shot much easier. A near perfect camera!
Nikon's spectacular product at a spectacular price

Spectacular product at a spectacular price. Nikon has hit it off the park! There is no other product with all these features that comes close to the Nikon Z6 III. This serves as a dedicated back up to my Nikon Z 8 and will be the primary camera to be used for low light photography. Great service from Best Buy as always in taking care of their members.
