Nikon Z8 body + Z 600mm f6.3 PF VR S

Nikon Z8 body

The Z8 impresses with its blend of outstanding performance and compact design. Weighing just 910g, the Z8 body is 30% smaller than the Z9 and 15% smaller than the D850. This makes the camera the ideal choice for creatives looking for either a lighter camera for hands-free shooting or a full-frame camera that is balanced on any rig, including most gimbals

Z8 - versatile powerhouse for photo and film

The Nikon Z8 is a powerful tool for photography and filming. With its 45.7 megapixel photo resolution and 8.3K native film resolution, it opens up countless creative possibilities.

Highest image quality thanks to stacked CMOS sensor and EXPEED 7 processor

The Z8 is equipped with a multi-layer (stacked) CMOS sensor and the EXPEED 7 processor, which are also used in the Z9. This guarantees outstanding image quality straight from the camera that meets the highest professional standards.

Flexibility for every workflow

Thanks to its outstanding image quality, the Nikon Z8 offers creatives maximum flexibility to adapt to any workflow,

with a wide range of frame rates and codecs available to capture movies. These include in-camera 12-bit RAW for movies at up to 8.3K/60p or 4.1K/120p. Photographers can choose from a range of file formats and continuous shooting speeds, including an astonishing 120 frames per second. There are further options for creating HDR content. The camera can shoot 10-bit HEIF photos and 10-bit HLG movies in addition to raw files.

Despite the smaller and lighter body, the reliability of the Nikon Z8 is retained. The camera is equipped with professional weather sealing and has the same cold tolerance as Nikon's top models, the D6 and Z9, ensuring reliable performance even in low temperatures.
