The Nikon Z6 III has a serious problem with it’s dynamic range. Photons to Photos ([ Ссылка ] ) discovered that it’s MORE THAN A FULL STOP behind cameras like the Nikon Z7 II, which is less expensive. A full stop is DOUBLE the dynamic range!

Most likely, Nikon compromised dynamic range to improve the readout speed of the sensor. They might have reduced the well capacity of individual photosites to pack in some other type of circuitry to temporarily hold the charge from an exposure, similar to the way the Sony a9 III achieved a global shutter.

Tony Northrup takes real test shots to show you how much the difference is so you can decide whether it’s good enough or if you’d rather choose a camera with better dynamic range but worse autofocus and video performance. Everything is a compromise, but you deserve to make educated choices.
