Nikon Z8 Full Frame Mirrorless Digital Camera (Body Only)

OVERVIEW:

Stacked CMOS sensor with minimal rolling shutter distortion: The Nikon Z8 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.

Crisp Shots: The Nikon Z8 Mirrorless Camera Body Only comes with a 45.7MP stacked type sensor with minimal rolling shutter to deliver a large image area for your shots, impressive low-light shooting performance, and a wide ISO range of 64-25,600 20fps (120fps in JPEG mode).

Focus More: Employing 493 AF points, the Nikon Z8 accurately brings fast-moving subjects into focus, so you get to capture them with impressive clarity. Moreover, the camera offers variable AF area modes to adapt to different subjects and settings.

Be Your Own Director: Offering a suite of video shooting functions, the Z8 Camera lets you capture 8.3K footage @60p. With support for an external microphone (not included), you can also create realistic movies accompanied with stereo sound.

Bring the Adventure to Life: The Nikon Z8 Mirrorless Camera has 5-axis stabilization featuring a high-precision stabilizing unit to easily compensate for various camera shakes even when using different lenses. It's also resistant to water and dust penetration, so you can capture your adventures across diverse outdoor settings.

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.

Groundbreaking subject detection and AF performance - even better than before: The powerful AF algorithm automatically detects and tracks nine subject types — people (eye, face, head, upper body), dogs, cats, birds, cars, motorcycles, bicycles, trains, and planes. The detection performance in dimly lit situations, such as indoors and at sunsets, has also been enhanced. Together with fast AF calculation and constant, rapid communication between the camera body and the NIKKOR Z lenses, the Z 8 offers high AF performance in a variety of shooting scenes.

Dual card slots give you the options to suit your needs: The Z 8 has two card slots, which give you a choice according to your shooting needs. One slot takes industry-leading CFexpress Type B cards, excellent for fast reading/writing of heavy stills or video data. This slot also accepts XQD memory cards. The second slot takes the more widely available SD (UHS-II) cards, which have a great balance of writing speed and cost.

Extended recording up to 125 min. in 4K UHD/60p*1 and up to 90 min. in 8K UHD/30p*2: The Z 8 enables extended recording up to 125 min. in 4K UHD/60p and up to 90 min. in 8K UHD/30p without overheating. With its smaller and lighter body than the Z 9, it is suitable for demanding all-day weddings and long, fly-on-the-wall documentaries.

12-bit or 10-bit professional-level video options — all in-camera: Whatever you are shooting, you can achieve maximum creative potential with high-quality grading possibilities. The Z 8 records pristine 12-bit ProRes RAW HQ, Nikon’s proprietary N-RAW video, or 10-bit ProRes 422 HQ internally — no external device is required. Full HD proxy files are simultaneously created in-camera when shooting in ProRes RAW and N-RAW, which makes editing the footage a smoother process. Furthermore, you can shoot in N-Log for any of the 12-bit and 10-bit in-camera codecs to get more control over the look of your final footage.

12-bit N-RAW for 8.3K 60p streamlines high-end video production: Nikon’s groundbreaking N-RAW* video format packs all the depth and detail of 12-bit RAW into a file that is half the size of ProRes RAW HQ files. You can work with 8.3K/60p, 5.4K/60p (DX format), 4.1K/120p, or 4K UHD/120p (2.3x crop) footage in compatible editing software to create 8K or 4K video outputs in both DCI and UHD formats. Furthermore, 8K footage gives you the freedom to crop, zoom, and track in post, while still being able to output your finished video in 4K.
