The Nikon Z6III is pushing the limits in video capabilities now offering 6K 60p N-RAW, 6K 30p ProRes RAW & improved Autofocus of the likes of the Z9 & Z8. The Nikon Z6III offers the same legendary Nikon sensors with the versatility of an electronic viewfinder and the more compact form factor of a mirrorless system. With the release of the NA-Z6III underwater housing, you can now take your underwater videography and photography to the next level. The ergonomic housing design ensures each essential control is re-routed to the left and right handles. This makes on-the-fly setting adjustments easier than ever.
Introducing NA-Z6III
The Nikon Z6III is a groundbreaking release for Nikon. They’ve taken everything they’ve learned from their Z series cameras and condensed it into a small but powerful package. One of the most impressive features is the ability to record 6K 60p N-RAW and 6K 30p ProRes RAW internally, with no need for an external recorder! Nikon has also incorporated the excellent autofocus performance from the Z8/Z9 into the Z6III, marking a significant improvement over the AF performance of the Z6II/Z7II.
For still shooters, the Nikon Z6III features a 24.5MP partially stacked CMOS sensor that delivers incredible image quality with manageable file sizes. The Z6III’s electronic shutter offers blackout-free shooting through the EVF, ensuring you never lose sight of your subject. When combined with customisable AF modes, this camera is capable of locking focus on nearly any subject with ease.
Nikon F-Mount & Z-Mount Lens Support
The Nauticam NA-Z6III is designed to accomodate both Z-Mount and F-Mount lenses. With the new compact design of the NA-Z6III housing, there are newly released zoom and focus gears which will drive off the main zoom/focus knob on the housing. There is also the 22225 N120 FTZ Adapter ER 25 with Knob which will allow you to use previous generation Z-Mount zoom and focus gear along with F-Mount lenses and their corresponding gears.

Mission Control
In true Nauticam fashion, essential controls are placed as close to the handles as possible, making these housings the most intuitive and user-friendly available. Our engineers strategically position controls where they’re needed most, rather than simply near the corresponding buttons on the camera. Dials feature rubberized finger grooves, and levers are designed for smooth operation.
In addition to dedicated dual thumb levers—'PLAYBACK' on the left, 'AF-ON' on the right. The left handle also features access to your Zoom Gear for quick adjustments. To make image review easier, especially when using the EVF, the 'ZOOM IN' and 'ZOOM OUT' buttons are conveniently mapped to the right-hand side near the handle.
Integrated Vacuum Check & Leak Detection Electronics
The Nauticam vacuum check and leak detection system is shipped with NA-Z6III as standard equipment. Combined with an accessory vacuum valve (PN 25624), this monitoring system provides constant updates on the water tight and safe-to-dive status of the housing. A simple color coded LED lighting system lets the user know that the vacuum is solid, or that the housing is losing vacuum. Leak detection is built into the same circuit, so if there is water intrusion, an audible and visual indication will occur. The Nauticam system is temperature compensated, eliminating false alarms caused by a change in outside temperature, or from a camera heating up on an action packed dive.
