A legacy inspired by agility and performance. Relish in the autofocus (AF) performance, 9 types of subjects at a time. With the dedicated new airplane mode added to the AF detection menu, the Z 8’s powerful combination of subject detection and 3D-tracking allows you to easily capture fast, erratically moving subjects; while the wide-area AF offers 20 custom options to provide flexibility for any shooting situation. Experience excellent video features with multiple video formats of your choice to tell your visual narratives. Record to your heart’s content with up to 125 minutes of continuous recording in 4K UHD/60p, together with a variety of accessories to elevate your videography creations.

 

Stacked CMOS sensor with minimal rolling shutter distortion

The Z 8 incorporates the same stacked CMOS sensor featuring 45.7 effective megapixels as the Z 9. The world’s fastest*
scanning speed makes it possible to minimize rolling-shutter distortion while eliminating the need for a mechanical shutter.

*As of May 10, 2023, among mirrorless cameras incorporating an image sensor with 30 megapixels or larger, based on Nikon research.

Exquisite image-processing – Expeed 7 Processor.
The Z 8 is equipped with Nikon’s most advanced image-processing engine, EXPEED 7. It processes a vast amount of data and enables next-generation features like the Real-Live Viewfinder, powerful AF, 120fps Pre-Release Capture, High Efficiency RAW, in-camera 8.3K/60p N-RAW, 4K UHD/120p, and more.
