Also a Zf user, couple of thoughts. Negatives: 1/ love to use both the 3d tracking and AF-C, and switch between them often. It takes a bit of work to set up and there aren't that many customizable buttons, 2/ grip - the additional 3rd party grips work well, but it also adds about 100g to the camera weight, which for a lightweight setup is noticeable and I can feel it. 3/ the dpad feels a bit cheap. That's it really. Everything else is really well designed, and I love the camera especially for: 1/ it's Dynamic range, 14 stops is crazy, in facts it's more than in Z8, and so is the 8 stops image stabilization, 2/ fast and reliable AF, I never had this much keepers, and the assist function when shooting with manual focus lenses is just beautiful, 3/ analog dials. For me this is much faster and more intuitive to control than any menu. This kind of retro looking cameras I feel developed a renome as design-biased rather than capability-biased. But the Nikon Zf is anything but a lifestyle camera. It looks nice, very nice in fact, but it's the capabilities where this camera really shines. Zf is a very, very capable camera and I love it for that more than for the design.

Just shot a memorial service for a friend and earlier shot a sports event with it. It’s my fun camera too! Lovely shots and vids, Zf rules!💪🏽👍🏾

Jason, nice Model you have !
@zozih87
Great video! Thanks for sharing
@SingingSimonSagebrush
In regards to the film simulations. If you use Nikon's NX software you can actually edit and finesse the presets that are already in the camera. Then you can download them back in as a custom preset. Great vid as always.
@dalesheehan2546
Love the video. Fantastic personal review. I need to know where you bought your sweatshirt from though. It’s really cool. Please can you let me know? Thanks.
@2cleverxhalf
I like the retro knobs because it takes me one second to see where I'm at with my exposure selection, without needing to squint or lift the camera to eye level. One nikon has failed with is not putting aperture rings on lenses suited to the zf.
@thomaschamberlin2485
My favorite aspect of the Zf is the low light capability. The thing that I hate about it is the flippy screen. I also can't believe that the only way to remotely trigger the shutter is via bluetooth on a retro camera.
@MavicAir2TW
Thanks for the review! I've been using my ZF since the summer of 2024. It would be great if Nikon could add 4K 120p slow-motion feature to the ZF.
@nobby090
Some great pics here. Love your thoughts on the ZF. I was one who bought it and sold for the lack of grip. Don’t doubt it’s a great camera though. I have just ordered a Z8. You should offer some presets for sale given your obvious ability in b&w. Just checked your website to try and buy some! Anyway subscribed .

Nice review of the Zf, great shots. I love mine with the nifty 50mm and 18-140mm in DX mode. Makes photography fun again.
@johnf4659
the nikon recipes/simulations are really good, but you have to lower the strength done at least 50%. They're too OP at default settings
@photofervorphotography4997
I found that if you plug in a microphone receiver it blocks the flippy screen if vlogging.
@dantedimaano9556
if you are really interested in film simulation in Nikon lineup get the Nikon Z50ii
@clintonsteephen9509
How to change focus points since it dont have a joystick
@Unstuck5043
Film Sims are overrated IMHO, but you can really well customize the picture profiles in the camera, or outside the camera and upload it there.
