I recently took a big step up to the Z6 II after being away from higher end photography for many years. My last full frame was pre-digital. I love it. While still getting used to all the things I can do with the Z6, I find it easy to use (I have read several books on using the Z6/Z7 which were very useful) all things considered. I coupled it with a 24-70mm 2.8 s lense for all around shooting. I am learning more every time I use it. I shopped it against all the other mirrorless cams in the class and found this the best of the breed for my purposes and stage of evolution

I upgraded for wildlife photography from a D3X. The focus tracking is more than I expected and the metering is spot on. I also have a Z5, but the 14 fps shooting mode and the auto tracking for birds is awesome. Great product Nikon!

I purchased my Z6ii for a backup to my D850 for a May/June safari in South Africa, Zimbabwe, & Botswana. To manage weight considerations, I only took 14-24, 24-70, & 70-200 lenses with an FTZ adapter. The fast auto focus, incredible low-light functionality, and two card slots proved to be a Big Plus. Splashed by water at Victoria Falls did not phase this camera.The camera performed flawlessly throughout the 18 days in the bush and the battery life was well beyond the predicted lifespan.... use viewfinder 90% of the time! Evening Game Drive shots were enhanced with the Z6ii which helped nail some challenging light scenarios. Great addition to the Nikon lineup!

I used my Z6ii for a little over a year and really like the ergonomics of it, it just feels good in your hands. For most photography applications, it is a great camera. I bought it mainly for wildlife and the autofocus struggles with birds in flight. I recently upgraded to the Z8 and am still learning the ropes with it, but am much happier with autofocus response.

The camera has great qualities, the bit I’ve been able to use it. I have the 24-120 lens. Been waiting over 6 weeks for the FTZ adapter and over 3 weeks for the 100-400. Can’t wait for the other gear to arrive so I can put it through it full tests. Hurry up and release the gear Nikon!

Recently purchased my new z6II. I have been using the D7000 since 2010. Gave the d700 to my granddaughter. I am just an enthusiast and love taking all kinds of pictures. My learning curve is much longer than the d7000, however, I am learning and learning what the Z6II can do. I am 78 and I enjoy the challenge of something new to learn. I am amazed at the quality of the pics and videos. The Slo-Mo is very easy to use. I am using it with the 24-200 nikkor lens.

A great camera. Still trying to dial in all the appropriate settings for the type of photography I do. The options are numerous and allow for a great range of combinations. This is my primary camera body from now on.

After waiting and watching several years before the purchase, I thought I knew what to expect, but it's exceeded expectaions in three areas. Modern cameras are complex (probably part of the appeal for some). But everything works as expected every time with more control and fewer surprises then a cell phone. The user interface and customization have achieved the difficult balance of making things accessible without overwhelming with choice. I don't use a camera everyday, and couldn't if it required knowing 20 settings every time. But the settings are there if you want therm. Quality of low light shooting is like magic coming from a d7100. The image stabilization and focus peaking make it a pleasure using manual lenses compared to the d7100. Image quality is a given for Nikon and my understanding all cameras at this level.

Excellent image quality and color contrast.Easy to handle and carry for advanced street photography coupled with Nikkor z 26 mm
