Nikon\u2019s compact full-frame camera with retro design gains new features with a major software update to version 3.00. The new firmware introduces the option to shoot photos with film grain in order to match the camera\u2019s retro look.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/header><\/div>\n

The Nikon Z f currently retails for $1,996 on Amazon and has been on the market for over two years, but Nikon continues to provide software support for this rather unusual system camera. Specifically, the firmware update to version 3.00 is one of the camera\u2019s biggest updates so far.\n<\/p>\n

The firmware mainly introduces a film grain simulation, which adds clearly visible noise to photos that and is intended to resemble the look of analog images. Photographers can adjust the intensity of the film grain in six levels and its coarseness in three levels. The grain is simulated for each photo, so no two images will have the same grain patterns. This feature is also available in videos.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The update also adds a range of new settings. For example, it\u2019s now possible to configure Focus Peaking so that the feature only highlights high-contrast edges in color when using the magnified view for manual focusing. New frame guides give users a preview of how an image would look if cropped to 4:3 or 9:16, which makes it easier to shoot in social media formats.\n<\/p>\n

After the patch, the electronic viewfinder remains disabled as long as the display is folded out. This prevents the camera from accidentally switching between the display and EVF if the sensor is triggered by a camera strap, a finger or a piece of clothing. The firmware update to version 3.00 for the Nikon Z f is now available at Nikon\u2019s download center.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

My fascination for technology goes back a long way to the Pentium II era. Modding, overclocking and treasuring computer hardware has since become an integral part of my life. As a student, I further developed a keen interest in mobile technologies that can make the stressful college life so much easier.
