I enjoyed the video as usual Julian. I thought that you explained about this feature very well and will benefit a lot of people. Catch you on the next one mate.
Glad the video has proved useful. It's a feature worth exploring. Like I said in the video, you won't use it all the time, but it's a hand tool to have.
Excellent Julian. Love your total ‘honest’ production here. It’s like sitting in the office!!! Not sure if this is something that would be of benefit for me personally. I got my hands on a Z8 today to play with. Very tempted. My upgrade is imminent- will let you know!!! Great video thank you
Thanks Dave, glad you liked the video. It's one of those features where it's good to know how to use it just in case. Not an "every shot" feature for sure. Have fun with the Z8! You know it's the right choice ;-)
Hi Jules. At the very beginning of this I thought wow, must upgrade my Z7ii to take advantage of this great sounding feature, but now not quite so sure having watched all the way through. Hope you're keeping well. Cheers. Paul
Hey Paul, all good thanks. Hope you are doing well. As for Pixel Shift, no point in sugar coating it. It's one of those features that's good to have, but you aren't going to use it all the time....especially in landscape photography. :-) IMHO..
Hi John, glad you found it informative :-) Focus shift deals with focus stacking (i.e. the camera takes a series of photos at different focus points) where as Pixel Shift takes the same photograph multiple times (including the same focus point) but moves the sensor to improve image quality and resolution.
@@jbairdexp yes I think it’s mainly used for product and still life photography like you mentioned. The pano idea is good though, again if you have still condition
I do have a question to all pixelshifters , owner of a sony a7riii with pixelshift and also pentax k1ii and kf also with pixelshift ,k1 even with a mode where movement gets corrected up to a point. So my question is , do your cameras can do pixelshift with flash as my sony ? The pentax can’t,how is it for the other brands?
I believe the Nikon Pixelshift system does support flash. I don't use flash so I haven't tested it myself, but that product manual indicates flash can be used as you can add a gap between each frame (to allow a flash to recharge).
@@TerryD_100 The extra step of merging in post could be considered a faff, but it's fairly easy to do. Maybe Nikon chose to do the merge in post as utilising local compute power power and software yields better results. Just a thought.
