ZR

Awesome camera. Currently have a Z8 and the ZR will be my new go to camera for traveling and everyday shooting. Love the smaller size. Still getting used to no EVF.A lot to learn about Red Cinema video. Watching lots of YouTube videos on some of the new functions and processes. Pros:Compact sizeTouch ScreenZ lensesFull FrameR3DCons:Micro HDMIBetter ergonomics without having to buy a cage which I didDual CFExpress slotsNeed more Red video functions

The best camera I ever had. Video is out of this world and still images are 24 megapixel perfection. I did not think a camera can improve the quality of life this much.

Awesome camera! It's easy to use for both video and photos, making it a must-buy. I love how fast you can flip between photo and video modes!

This is my first cinema camera and most modern camera as I shoot mostly in 35mm on my F3. I bought an F-Z adapter and it’s been great being able to use all my Ai-s lenses. It’s a lot of fun using this camera for stills and short videos shot mostly in H.264 so far. I’m excited to learn how to use all the codecs and features this camera offers now and in the future with firmware updates.

Excellent camera at the price. Documentation and guides are non-existent for those assembling a video rig with XLR mics, external V-mount battery, use with telephoto lens for wildlife, and rigs for use on a pro video head. Even with the Nikon MC-N10 what the user gets is incomplete for mounting to a cage or to a pan handle.

One the most versatile cameras to ever be released, quick, small and all so powerful visual creative tools looking forward to growing with the Nikon Zr

The Nikon ZR is honestly a fantastic camera — the colors, sharpness, and overall video quality are super duper good. I’m really impressed with how clean and vibrant the footage looks straight out of the camera.The only issue I’ve faced is overheating during long recordings when shooting at 3024×60, 30, or 24 fps. For continuous long takes, the camera tends to heat up and stop. However, if I record below 2160×30, I have zero issues — it runs smoothly without interruptions.Nikon really needs to address this overheating problem in an upcoming firmware update. Once that’s fixed, this camera will be an absolute beast.

The versatility of this camera honestly amazes me, this camera is what you make/want it to be. It can be as simple as a point of shoot or as complex as a film camera. It isn’t perfect, would love things like internal ND filters. But it’s perfect for what I need.

Great value for the money. Is it perfect? No. It is an amazing first attempt for Nikon making an entry level cinema camera! There’s a learning curve even for die hard Nikon users (me of 20 years.) Few external buttons, no “I” button, no ISO button/iris, no mode dial, no dual cards for video plus they come out the bottom vs the side, ibis clunks when the power’s off, everyone says the screen is huge but it’s meh and doesn’t tilt on the back it only swings out and tilts, hdmi only sends 1080 raw not 6k so Ninja V it’s obsolete for external recording, no support for external ssd yet, hoping for the body to be a cube with more ports instead of a mirrorless body without a viewfinder or grip, Z6iii has the same sensor but can shoot R3D files so color grading between the two are inconsistent, and battery like is slightly underwhelming but that was expected.All that aside it’s a workhorse video camera in compact form. I will buy at least one more for a B cam and use my Z6iii in a pinch. (Still wish Nikon would offer a firmware update for Z6iii to shoot R3D if possible so the same gen cameras/sensors would match.) Come on Nikon!!!
