Nikon Z6 III + Nikkor Z 24-70mm f/4.0 S - Demo Unit

High-resolution electronic viewfinder with an extra-wide color gamut

Rediscover your creativity with the bright, ultra-high-resolution electronic viewfinder. It impresses with its smooth, high-resolution display and an extra-wide color gamut for more precise colors. That’s the difference between a good picture and a great one.

A new dimension of clarity

Thanks to a refresh rate of 60 frames per second and an impressive 576,000 pixels, the electronic viewfinder displays smooth, full-resolution images—both during shooting and playback. Sharpness is impressively high across the entire frame, making it easier to check focus. Even during high-speed continuous shooting, there’s no blurring or loss of resolution.

Bright HDR Display

Shooting in bright sunlight with lots of shadows? The electronic viewfinder with high luminance (4,000 cd/m²) ensures excellent image quality and dynamic range in high-contrast situations. Even on the brightest days, details such as facial features or background elements don’t disappear into the shadows. So you can capture the perfect shot.

World’s first partially multi-layered CMOS sensor*

The Z6III’s partially multi-layered sensor is so much more than the sum of its 24.5 megapixels. It is designed to make this full-frame camera both powerful and compact—in every respect.

Combined with the power of the EXPEED 7 image processor, the partially multi-layered full-frame CMOS sensor delivers impressive image quality. Its dynamic range and color accuracy are breathtaking. The phenomenal sensor readout speeds and ultra-fast data readout ensure lightning-fast autofocus calculations on par with the Z8 and Z9 and help counteract rolling-shutter distortion. They also enable the electronic viewfinder to display 60 frames per second—even when you’re shooting in continuous mode at 20 frames per second.

Do you shoot portraits? Intelligent noise reduction ensures remarkably detailed JPEG and HEIF files—even at high ISO sensitivities. Do you photograph fast-moving wildlife? Thanks to a consistently clear view of the action, your images will turn out fantastic.

Blink and you’ll miss it

With an impressive 120 frames per second and Pre-Release Capture, you can go all out. You’ll capture the decisive moment, even if it happened before you pressed the shutter button.

Master the art of motion

Top-notch autofocus you can trust. Every time.

No matter how your subject moves, the Z6III mirrorless camera stays on top of it. World-class autofocus capabilities ensure consistently reliable subject detection and tracking that doesn’t falter even in low light.

Lightning-fast AF calculations, on par with those of the Z8 and Z9, enable remarkable precision at high frame rates. Deep-learning technology ensures impressive subject recognition whether using automatic focus-area control, manual focus, or Auto Capture. There are also dedicated subject recognition modes for people and animals: Eye tracking is impressive—even when the subject is extremely small within the frame.

As daylight fades, before sunrise, or at night, you can shootfor longerwith an AF sensitivity of –10 ^LW*. In bright lighting conditions, special AF pixels on the camera sensor ensure that faces remain in sharp focus even in the shade or when backlit.

When shooting with a shallow depth of field—for example, of stationary subjects, indoor details, or landscapes—the Pinpoint AF area provides a very small, highly precise focus point. Focus precisely on the element that makes your composition perfect.

^{*AF sensitivity}of up to –10 EV. Measured in photo mode at ISO 100 and a temperature of 20 °C using single-shot autofocus (AF-S) and a lens with a maximum aperture of f/1.2.

Highly Acclaimed 3D Tracking

With 3D tracking, it’s easy to track unpredictable, fast-moving subjects. The Z6III stays locked onto the subject even when it’s extremely small in the frame.

Subject Recognition You Can Count On

Just like the Z8 and Z9, the Z6III can detect and track people, cats, dogs, birds, bicycles, motorcycles, cars, airplanes, and trains.

Focus in the Dark with Autofocus Down to –10 EV

Image stabilization (VR) with 8.0 stops and focus-point stabilization

Unleash your creativity. With the Z6III and a NIKKOR Z lens, the possibilities are endless for what you can create right in-camera.

Wildlife and action enthusiasts can comfortably shoot handheld with the S-series super-telephoto lenses—with all the sharpness and beautiful bokeh that only an S-series prime lens can offer. The NIKKOR Z 600mm f/6.3 VR S and the NIKKOR Z 400mm f/4.5 VR S are both impressively lightweight: Combined with the Z6III’s powerful in-camera image stabilization, you can leave your tripod at home.

With Nikon’s coveted fast S-series prime lenses, you can capture your subjects for portraits and artistic works in entirely new ways. The magnificent NIKKOR Z 135mm f/1.8 S Plena delivers perfectly round bokeh in both the background and foreground. Breathtaking clarity, sharpness, and bokeh are also hallmarks of the NIKKOR Z 50mm f/1.2 S and NIKKOR Z 85mm f/1.2 S lenses, both of which are just as exciting for video as they are for stills.

For boundless creativity, Nikon offers impressive low-light performance—with the affordable trio of f/2.8 zoom lenses and the wide range of f/1.8 S-series prime lenses. All NIKKOR Z lenses feature a similar design and control layout, making them ready to use right away. Select Z lenses offer linear focusing for video. With the (optional) MC-N10 remote control grip, you can adjust focus settings silently while shooting.

If you’re attached to an F-mount lens, you can use the FTZ II mount adapter (sold separately) to use approximately 360 classic Nikon lenses without compromising image quality. The adapter itself is fully weather-sealed, and its optimized design allows for comfortable shooting in any orientation. It’s ideal if you’re looking to transition from your Nikon DSLR gear to the Z6III full-frame mirrorless camera.

Built to last for your creative adventures

Compact yet robust. Superlight yet durable. Weighing just 750 g, the Z6III full-frame camera is perfect for travel and any weather.

Both the camera and the battery operate at temperatures as low as –10 °C, making trekking trips in wintery environments possible. Rain and dust are no problem either: the high-quality weather sealing protects the camera and the MB-N14 multi-function grip.

The Z6III is unfazed by bumps and shocks. When the camera is turned off, a VR lock activates to prevent accidental damage to the sensor. The magnesium alloy front cover keeps the camera lightweight while offering impressive shock resistance.

It’s not just the front of this full-frame mirrorless camera that’s built to take the heat. The top and rear plates are made from the lightweight carbon fiber of the Sereeboã-P series, a high-performance, high-strength injection-molded material with the same structural strength as magnesium.

Nikon’s proven ergonomics and customizable settings

Responsiveness you can feel A control layout so well thought out that you don’t have to think twice. The Z6III full-frame mirrorless camera clears the way for you to focus entirely on taking photos.

Among the customization options inherited from the Nikon Z8 and Z9 is the ability to assign different AF-area presets to custom buttons: This lets you quickly switch between AF modes whenever the situation calls for it. When shooting through the viewfinder, you can assign various functions to the high-resolution tilting and rotating touchscreen, including the focus point. While looking through the viewfinder, you can quickly and easily move the focus point with your finger.

If you want audible confirmation while shooting, the Z6III features simulated shutter sounds. This lets you hear when photos are being taken, even when the mechanical shutter isn’t activated. Choose from five customizable shutter sounds, inspired by Nikon’s SLR cameras and rangefinders.

There are separate user interfaces on the display for stills and video. Additionally, the Z6III’s slim body features two card slots, giving you various options for storing your photos. One slot supports high-performance CFexpress Type B cards or XQD cards, and the other supports UHS-II SD cards.
