Nikon Z6III featuring the world’s first partially-stacked CMOS sensor

The Nikon Z6III boasts the “world’s first” partially-stacked CMOS sensor, advanced video capabilities, upgraded autofocus, enhancements to the viewfinder and display, as well as cloud connectivity and more!

The Nikon Z6III features a 24.5-megapixel partially-stacked CMOS sensor, a first for full-frame mirrorless cameras, paired with the EXPEED 7 image-processing engine.

This innovative sensor architecture incorporates high-speed processing circuits both above and below the imaging area, enabling a dramatic enhancement in readout speeds, that are approximately 3.5 times faster than its predecessor, the Z6II.

The significantly upgraded autofocus system is approximately 20% faster than the Z6II, and enables the camera to focus in extremely low light conditions down to -10 EV.

Nine types of subject detection, including modes specifically for aircraft are also supported and continuous shooting speeds of up to 120 fps with Pre-Release Capture is also available helping to ensure critical moments are never missed.

Videographers will also appreciate the up to 2X digital zoom in HD and 1.4X in 4K without quality loss, alongside support for the Nikon MC-N10 Remote Grip and Atomos UltraSync BLUE, enhancing multi-camera setups and advanced video production workflows.

The upgraded electronic viewfinder (EVF) features a 5.76M dot resolution that can reach a luminance of 4000 cd/m2, and supports the DCI-P3 colour gamut, allowing for a more accurate colour representation.

The camera is also equipped with a 3.2″ fully-articulated LCD touchscreen and dual card slots, supporting both CFexpress and SD UHS-II cards.

The Nikon Z6III also introduces a suite of cloud connectivity options, including the new Nikon Imaging Cloud service, allowing users to directly download curated Imaging Recipes and Custom Picture Controls, crafted by Nikon or supervised by creators.

Finally, the Z6III also supports automatic firmware updates and image uploads via Wi-Fi, eliminating the need for manual transfers. Images can also be seamlessly transferred to pre-configured third-party cloud storage services, simplifying the workflow and enhancing the overall user experience.
