This is the first time using a Nikon camera. I always wanted to see if Nikon will pull themselves into the video market.
After getting access to a Nikon Z6, I decided to take it to my Guilin trip last month. At first I was very confused as it was my first time holding a Nikon Camera in my hands.
After I got the hang of it and where everything was, it was a blast.These were all filmed in Guilin and special thanks to Nikki for being part of this.
At first I thought I would have issues grading this as the Nlog recorded on Atomos recorder looked really flat and personally I don’t have fun grading Sony Slog 3 from bottom up so that was very close.

Edited this video in Davinci Resolve and created a base look of what I liked using Film Convert plus added some additional nodes to customise the Film Convert look to my liking.
On purpose I have not denoised these footage’s.
My Setup:
- Camera: Nikon Z6
- Lens: Nikon Z Mount 35mm f1.8
- Gimbal: Zhiyun Crane 3 Lab
- Matte Box: Bright Tangerine Misfit Atom
- Filters: Tiffen ND Filter & Black Promist 1/8

I used the Promist as I wanted to create this look. Might not be for everyone.

I am going to be testing this Camera further to see how much I can push it and what’s it’s limits. Will be testing the camera next with professional lighting setups for a short film.
