If you’re in the market for a new Nikon Full Frame FX Camera and you’re not sure what the differences are, this video is for you. Even though Nikon has more than four full frame cameras on the market currently, I only consider these four to be the ones I would purchase new. The Nikon Z7, Z6, D850 and D5. The Nikon D750 which is a fantastic camera is on it’s last legs and lacks some modern features. The Nikon Df, well, yea, that was DOA.

Hey bud, just wanted to say it's funny how youtube works….usually, the most knowledgeable ones have the fewest subscribers, not that 1 million subs isn't amazing (congrats btw) but the amount of content and the thoroughness of the content you produce is outstanding and should have 20 times the subs! Really appreciate all you do……
Thanks, Pat
Really great video, nice to see them put side by side with all the specs. Really helpful, thanks.
excellent review!

Dam z6 was looking good till the single card slot part.
Good info and well delivered z6 guy Thank you for your work helping me.
I weighed all my options and thought it better to buy the "last DSLR" than the first [Nikon] mirrorless…
Stuck between Z7 and the D850
I'm having such a difficult time deciding whether or not to jump ship from my D500 and pick up the Z6.
Top video as always Jared. I got my D850 just under a year ago and don’t regret it one iota. I have been using SLR’s for near enough 40 years and although I have tried to downsize to a more travel friendly system I keep coming back to them as I am addicted. My first DSLR was a Nikon D300s and I jumped to full frame with the D800 (but this was the first time I could afford it). I am an old school enthusiast / hobbyist that takes stills around 95% of the time so the D850’s video ‘shortcomings’ do not bother me as I know it will more than cope with my needs. I’m still astounded by the D850 every time I use it – from it’s focusing speed to the amazing detail. I can accept that mirrorless is the future but until Nikon produce a semi pro type body I wouldn’t even consider it – if I look at their Z range I still get a nagging feeling like I do with any other brand of mirrorless, that they’re not a ‘proper’ camera.
Very helpful video in deciding what camera I need to buy next.
Happy with my D810!
Finely I made up my choice…. The Z7 for me it's huge stepup from my nikon D3.
Thanks for this vid….
i love your videos you seem to give the true reasons for buying a Z6 now, iam a nikon shooter for 30years and i have lots and lots of nikon glass so it is better i stick on with nikon and go mirrorless.

Great video… it really helped me narrow down which one to buy
Stephan Moccio! nice. I met him a few week ago, what a nice guy.
The only thing I like about mirrorless is live exposure preview. If I could put that into a dslr somehow then I would stick with dslr for years and years.
Got big hands use the most the old Nikon F5 and the Nikon D5 for portraits with old metal AF-D prime lenses.
I love you brother ❤️
have D750 and nikkor 70-200 2.8e, 20 1.8g, 35 1.8g, tamron 24-70 g2 will it be a waste of money if get a new d850? cause I really don’t think my d750 is good enough for my lenses
Stick the mirrorless tech in the 850 w/grip/d5 body.. then I shall be a happy guy..
For still photography z7 would be the best or D850?
This was the best comp video I saw you make, explaining what camera gives you what you need in combo with what you shoot, much better then the "mark comp videos.
Leica Q2 ?

I'd like to see a similar comparison with the top Canon line-up. This was a very informative video. Thanks.

how do i keep track of my gear? just keep in the bad
Sure that mirrorless is the future, but it doesn't mean that D500, d850 or D750 can't take any longer great pictures. For me all the videos are just for selling the new cameras.
I just bought a D750 as my first full frame camera. For $1300 on amazon you can't beat it. should be an excellent upgrade from my D3300.
How do you feel shooting sports with the Z7 EVF? Does the lag/blur thing make you crazy?
I have the D850 for stills and I bought the A73 in May. I’m own in Nikon lenses:
24-70mm F2.8
70-200mm F 2.8
200-500 mm F5.6
50mm. F1.4
Sony’s Lenses
35mm. F2.8.
16-35mm F4
24-70mm F4
79-200mm F4
What should I do? Stay with the 2 systems? Or sell the Sony’s gears and buy the Z6 with the FTZ adapter.
Does FTZ adapter really works well with the lenses do I have?
Or sell all Nikon Gear and buy the Sony’s A7R3 and sell the F4 lenses and buy the G Masters F2.8 zooms and the 35mm 1.4 & 85mm 1.4
I’m a event (weddings, graduations, etc) photographer
What’s your suggestion? Thanks and sorry for my English.
This one…. Nikon lets you trade in for credit http://wild.link/cameta/APCdCg
If you're just starting out with full frame, what about the D610? Still current and still a great camera, but can be picked up reasonably cheaply (well, much cheaper than a Z6) second hand. Small and light too.
its not about having the best or the latest greatest cameras/lenses.. Its about going out and shoot with whatever you have.
I shoot for fun and have had different nikons over the years, currently D500. I am very tempted to jump to mirrorless as its CLEARLY the future. But… there are always going to be folks who hang on to DSLR just like there are those who still love film. This is not right or wrong… You should use the camera that fits your needs and you enjoy using. High megapixels or better low light performance? Frame rate? Who cares. I know enough about photography to know that none of this supersedes the fundamentals. Except in rare circumstances, better equipment does not make you a better photographer. When I was lesser experienced, I just snapped a million pictures and patted myself on the back when one of them turned out great. Now, I put much more planning into the shot I want to get rather than raise and click. Result: fewer pics, and better pics. If you shoot events that happen quickly and you don't get a second chance… sports, sunsets, etc, the benefit you get from great gear is minor compared to the benefit you get from the organ between your ears. I'm not a pro, so I can't comment on whether any of these cameras get a better shot of the wedding cake cutting… but I do know that none of them will if the photographer they're attached to is in another room.
