Nikon Z6 III Mirrorless Camera Body

Pixel Shift Technology

• Ultrahigh Resolution: Produce ultrahigh resolution images up to approximately 96 megapixels using pixel shift technology. By slightly shifting the image sensor between shots, selectable between 4 and 32 shots per image, users can merge the images in NX Studio to create a single image with enhanced resolution, texture, and color. This technique reduces noise, moiré, and false colors, making it ideal for archival, landscape, architecture, fine art, macro, and film digitizing applications. Best results are achieved when using a tripod.

Professional Level Video

• Internal 6K60 and 4K120 Recording: The Z8 matches the Z9's recording capabilities, offering various resolutions and frame rates up to 8K. Using full pixel readout, 6K60p video can be recorded continuously, while 4K and Full HD recording are available in various frame rates, including full-frame 4K at up to 120p and Full HD at 240p for slow-motion playback.

• NRAW and ProRes RAW Video: Support for internal 12-bit raw recording at up to 6K 60p in the NRAW format, along with internal ProRes RAW HQ, offers greater tonal and color latitude and improved dynamic range for color grading and post-production flexibility. NRAW, Nikon's own raw format, features impressively small file sizes and the ability to create MP4 proxies for efficient previewing or transferring. NRAW is available up to 6K at 60p, and ProRes RAW up to 6K at 30p.

• ProRes and H.265 10-Bit Recording: Internal recording supports 10-bit color and 4:2:2 sampling in the ProRes 422 HQ and H.265 codecs at 5.4K 30p and 5.4K 60p, respectively.

Nikon's Brightest Viewfinder

• Enhanced EVF: The Z6 III's sensor-processor combo enables Nikon to provide the brightest electronic viewfinder (EVF) in any of its cameras. At 4000 nits, it's 33% brighter than the flagship Z9, making details visible even in bright sunlight. Its 5,760,000-dot resolution aids autofocus by showing the subject recognition square. The EVF features blackout-free viewing when shooting continuously and has a high fps function, upping the refresh rate to 120 fps for smoother, lifelike viewing. It also supports a higher dynamic range and is compatible with a DCI-P3 color gamut, approximating real-world color.

Four-Axis Tilting LCD

• Versatile Screen: The Z6 III includes a unique 3.2" 2.1m-dot four-axis tilting touchscreen LCD, supporting high and low angle shooting in both horizontal and vertical orientations. The four-way tilting design allows for easier viewing from various positions, with the user interface orientation shifting accordingly.

Body Design

• Dual Card Slots: One CFexpress Type B slot and one UHS-II SD slot provide flexible file saving. The CFx slot is suitable for data-intensive applications like 6K recording and high-speed burst shooting, while the SD slot maintains compatibility with popular storage formats. The CFx B slot is also compatible with XQD memory cards.

• Enhanced Ergonomics: Pair the Z6 III with the optional MB-N14 Power Battery Pack grip for improved ergonomics during vertical shooting and up to 1.9x battery life.

• Compact and Durable: The smaller, lighter design makes the Z6 III ideal for rigging or gimbal use. Premium weather sealing protects against dust and moisture for use in harsh climates. In-body Vibration Reduction now supports Synchro VR for up to 8 stops of camera shake compensation with select Z lenses.

Versatile Connectivity

• Comprehensive Connectivity:
  • Direct-to-Cloud: Nikon Imaging Cloud for file transfer and access to Nikon's imaging recipes for creative color grading.
  • Sync Timecodes: Use Ultrasync Blue from Atomos for multi-camera setups.
  • Full-size HDMI: For outputting video to external recorders or monitors.
  • Audio Ports: 3.5mm headphone port and a new line-in port for high-quality audio input.
  • USB-C: Supports file transfers, tethering, power delivery, and battery charging.
  • USB-LAN Connectivity: Paired with a USB-C to Ethernet adapter for a 1000BASE-T wired LAN connection for FTP file transfers.
