No longer have the camera. Traded it for the Z9 to B&H Photo. Was great while it had it.

My first Nikon was an F Photomic TN in 1969 which I still have along with many iterations of film cameras since up to an F5 then in digital form the D series starting with the D-1 in 2000. The Z7II has not disappointed me what so ever using it as a tool in telling stories with photography. Buttons and switches may change around as new cameras are developed and the mounting system for glass has changed to the Z sytem but I have to hand it to Nikon for keeping enough consistent that adaptability to new technology has been easy for me to keep up with over the years.

3 stars because the camera is sub par in low light lock-in focusing. It wanders. That being said I've learned to work around it, but at this price point it should not be an issue. I hope future firmware updates will fix these issues.

Love it! The perfect mirrorless camera. Sharp images, great autofocus. Only one camera better than the Nikon Z7II and that's my Z9.

All good. I think autofocus eye detection still needs improvement. Familiarization taking sometime. Otherwise no complaints.

Technological Marvel that’s feature rich and more compact than conventional Dslr’s but comes with a pretty good learning curve.Lots of options for image Managment and manipulation for most every need.But with all the options, it can also be confusing and unfortunately too easy to shoot bad images until settings are corrected.Auto focus is still less than optimum and not up to the precision of the older Dslrs.Image quality can be exceptional once the human component catch’s up with this highly advanced digital imaging device.While the Ftz mechanically couples F Nikkor lenses nicely, many of my older lenses are very slow to focus and the Ftz adapters do potentially make for a little cludgey system.But with the excellent state of the art Z lenses, the Z7II works much better .Overall, an excellent digital Imazing device capable of very good images in a compact body.

Nikon z7ll Ser.No. 3007668 MB-N11 Ser. No. 2014265. Version 1.40I use this z7ll and grip with 70/200, f2.8 100/400 f4.5/5.6, f1.8 85, 1.8 50mm and both a 1.4 and a 2x TX. I shoot primarlily historic and vintage automotive races for both web and print publications. My first Nikon was a Nikon F purchased in I think 1958 or maybe 1959. I have used Nikons professiobally erver since.I hve found the z7ll to produce amazingly sharp images with good contrast and color. The auto focus for the most part functions as advertised. I could wish for a better follow focus update sometime soon. The follow focus on the z9 is far better. Note: I have z9 on order but who knows when that may be deivered.Now to my one complaint on the z7ll. August of 2021 shooting on asignment the camerta died. I turned the power off and rebooted the camera came back to life. Less then twenty exposures later it died again. Totally dead as thogh I had removed all the batteries. I got back to my car removed the batteries and replaced them with freshly charged batteries. The batteries I removed were freshly chaerged and both showed over 95% charge that morning. I had made fewer the 200 exposures. The fresh batteries made no difference. Still dead. I looked up the symptoms on a google search and low and behold there were a number of z7ll cameras with the same problem. The cure or short term fix was to remove the grip place a sigle battery in the body turn the camera on and make a number of exposures. Remove the single battery and reattach the grip with batteries and turn the camera back on. Viola…It powered up and continued to work the rest of the week. No problems. In reading through the goggle search results it appears this fixes the problem.On my return home I contacted Nikon to be told they had never heard of this before. Maybe they don’t do google searches for z7ll problems? In any event I repeat this procedure every few weeks and have not had any follow on problems. Once I frecieve the z9 I’ll ship my z7ll back to Nikon for them to take a look. Until then I don not want to lose the camera for extended weeks while it is off being looked at. Is the problem the body or the grip? Who knows.The images continue to amaze.

I have been shooting with NIKONs for more than 37 years. First, film (of course). I moved to digital with my D100. Then D200, D700 and finally, D800 and D750 I loved them all - each a bit different/more advanced, more to learn … then new lenses to buy. Now, I have the Z7 II and I’m using only native lenses - The kit 24-70 F4 plus 4 more. I love the camera! My biggest challenge is getting the focus spot on, consistently, given the shot I’m trying to get. It will take more and more practice to get better. More clicks and I expert fewer errors/misses.

My only complaint is that it isn’t the mirrorless d850, which I assume the next iteration will be. That said, this camera is a marvel and handles everything from landscape to wildlife easily.
