I had a Z5 for a year to break into the Mirrorless system, about a month ago I bought a brand new Z6ii from Nikon, wow I was blown away with the auto focus on this camera.I have mainly been doing action photos of my retriever and waterfowl photography. Absolutely could not be happier, watched a few YouTube videos to get suggestions for dialing in Bird photography and I am very impressed with the quality and speed of the auto focus. I was holding out for the Z6iii, but decided to buy either the Z8 or Z6ii, so to spend more on a few lenses went the Z6ii route, awesome camera!

Very happy with this little powerhouse. If I had to make one improvement, I would have it remember timer settings in the custom settings options. I found a work around, but that would be nice. I am an architectural photographer who switched from the D750 and found better quality all around

So far, I’m loving it !! Got all my settings set up and set to user settings one two and three. I would recommend this camera to anyone wanting to upgrade. I like being able to set up different I settings For the user settings, I also really like the positioning of the AF- on button & the shutter release button.

This is my second Z6II. As a sports photographer I carry two cameras so I am able to capture close up action with my Z 24-70 2.8 S mounted to one Z6II and an 80-400 mounted to the other (using the FTZ adapter). Most times I'm shooting bursts in AF-C mode. The Z6II focuses quickly and accurately. Color and images are great during the day or night games. I was using a D810, as my go-to camera before I purchased my first Z6II. The D810 was a bit heavier and not as responsive. Love being able to see what I captured on the LCD in real time so I am able to change or correct my settings accordingly. The Z6II is perfect for what I need. I have since added a Z 70-200 2.8 S and battery grip to my kit for court-side vertical basketball shots. During my free time, I love shooting wildlife and landscapes. Again, the Z6II turns out great images all around. I am very happy I switched to the Nikon mirrorless system!

Lightweight and very versatile. This camera fits great in my hands and has a very easy learning curve.

As a sports photographer I now love it after changing the focus settings from the factory, I'll be selling my D500 and using the $$ to help purchase the Z mount 70-200mm f/2.8 (a friend let me borrow his) I added the battery grip as I shoot some sports vertically and it really fits my hand nice and seems to be lighter then the D500 and f mount 70-200mm lens combo.
