Power your creativity with 6K

More detail. More flexibility. More you. When you have the power of 6K resolution to work with in-camera, and pro-quality sound as you film, it’s so much easier to push your creative vision forwards.

Stay fluid with high-res, in-camera video formats

With the Z6III full-frame camera, you’re free to roll without external monitors. In-camera recording up to 6K/60p (RAW) and 5.4K/60p (YUV) lets you deliver pristine footage straight from the camera, pull HD verticals for your socials—and so much more. You can create detail-rich 4K UHD/60p video oversampled from 6K in-camera. Or shoot 10-bit log files with extensive depth and dynamic range, ready for precise colour grading.

Film majestic slow motion at 240p

Show the beauty of the moves inside the moves with majestic slow-motion sequences. You can record full frame, Full HD footage at 240p (10x slow motion). Or tighten the view without changing lenses by recording in DX-crop mode at 4K/120p. The option to record in 10-bit H.265 gives you maximum flexibility over colour grading in post.

Keep rolling . . .

Wedding parties, music performances, interviews. With the Z6III, you won’t need to stop. Hang around for the best bits. Show the whole story.

Line-level input for pro-quality sound

In a first for Nikon cameras, the Z6III’s external mic input can function as a line-level input that lets you connect your audio recorder or mixer directly to the camera. You’ll be able to capture professional quality sound in-camera while filming, saving you precious time—and money––in post.

High-resolution vari-angle touchscreen

No matter which angle you’re filming from, the fully articulating 2100k-dot vari-angle touchscreen always gives you a clear, highly detailed view of the scene. Key shooting information including a waveform can be displayed, and a red border frame confirms you’re recording. Filming yourself? You can flip the screen around to a front-facing orientation.

Hi-Res Zoom. Prime lens flexibility.

Shooting with a prime lens? You can take advantage of the 6K sensor to zoom in, with no loss of image quality. Choose from 11 different zoom speeds and zoom in up to 1.4x in 4K, or 2x in Full HD.

E-VR for rock-steady handheld filming

Powerful E-VR² helps nail handheld walking shots so steady, everyone will think you used a gimbal. If you’re using a Z lens, the trapezoid distortion common to all wide-angle lenses will be corrected.

Film all the way down to IS0 200

Go boldly into the night! You can set the dynamic range of a scene down to ISO 200 (equivalent) when shooting in N-log at Lo2. You’ll be able to capture the richest, finest details in the dark.

Made for one-person crews!

Stay compact, fluid , and ready to beat your own best. With only the small and agile Z6III full-frame camera, a lens, and perhaps an audio recorder for sound—you've got a full video system that keeps up with your creative momentum. You won’t need monitors, or external hard drives.
