LAS VEGAS – NAB BOOTH #C6019 – At NAB 2019, imaging leader Nikon is making a statement that they are more committed than ever to professional video production and content creators. Nikon will be showcasing their latest video innovations, including the powerfully cinematic Z Series of full-frame mirrorless cameras and NIKKOR Z lenses, the new Nikon Z 6 Filmmaker’s Kit and a demonstration of the much-anticipated ProRes RAW video firmware update for the Nikon Z series. Additionally, visitors to the booth can experience the latest robotic and automated broadcast solutions from MRMC, a Nikon company. Nikon will also be conducting a series of inspiring interviews and panel discussions with filmmakers, prominent YouTube creators and Nikon Ambassadors that will be livestreamed directly from the show floor using a combination of Nikon and MRMC technologies.“The Nikon Z Series is a phenomenal tool for all kinds of creators, from aspiring filmmakers, to production professionals, to visionary DP’s,” said Jay Vannatter, Executive Vice President, Nikon Inc. “By packing a robust, high-level feature set and exceptional image quality into such a small form-factor, we want to make Nikon an indispensable part of any production where portability and a small footprint are as essential as production value.”

Nikon Z Series
The Nikon Z Series is an innovative full-frame mirrorless camera system that combines advanced video features with legendary Nikon reliability and optical excellence. Attendees are invited to see for themselves the advanced features the Z Series offers, including 4K UHD recording, Time Code, focus peaking, uncompressed HDMI output, N-Log and more.

The Z 6 Filmmaker’s Kit, Nikon’s all-in-one video bundle, is the ultimate “starter pack” for content creators who want to begin capturing smooth, steady and cinematic full-frame 4K Ultra HD footage right away. At a suggested retail price (SRP*) of just $3,999.95, the kit gives creators all the tools they need to step up their production in one convenient bundle at a significant savings.

The kit includes a Nikon Z 6 camera, NIKKOR Z 24-70mm f/4 S lens, Mount Adapter FTZ, Atomos Ninja V 4K HDR 5” Monitor Recorder¹, Rode VideoMic Pro+, MOZA Air 2 3-Axis Hand-Held Gimbal Stabilizer, an additional EN-EL15b battery, 12-month Vimeo Pro membership, and The Art of Making Music Videos Nikon School online course featuring Nikon Ambassador Chris Hershman.

ProRes RAW Video on the Nikon Z Series – Future Firmware Demonstration
In addition to its advanced content capture capabilities, the Nikon Z Series offers a range of features that seek to enhance the video workflow and offer ultimate creative control in post-production, such as 10-bit HDMI output, N-Log, Time Code and focus peaking. Features will also continue to adapt and evolve—currently in development is a LUT for N-Log, as well the upcoming addition of 12-bit ProRes RAW video support.

For filmmakers, the remarkably efficient ProRes RAW codec will put 68 billion colors at their disposal, giving them increased tonal range, smoother gradations and more flexibility when color grading. A first for a full-frame mirrorless camera in its price range², this feature will be available on both the Nikon Z 6 and Nikon Z 7 when using the Atomos Ninja V 4K HDR 5” Monitor Recorder to capture video.

The Z Series will continue to adapt to changing user needs through the development and roll-out of firmware updates that meet and exceed creative expectations. The upcoming firmware update will be on display at the Nikon booth at NAB 2019 (C6019) for attendees to see in action. Details, including release date, will be shared at a later date.

Robotic and automated broadcast solutions manufacturer MRMC, a Nikon company, will bring their groundbreaking Polycam Chat, Polycam Player and Polycam One solutions to NAB 2019. The Bolt and Bolt Jr. camera robots will also take up residency in both the Nikon booth and in the convention center lobby to demonstrate why they are the premiere choice in high-speed and slow-motion precision content capture.
