    Best Cameron Ever!

    Posted by DaChief on June 7, 2025

    I have been a Nikon owner for years, starting with a D3000, D800, D850, and now a Z8. This camera has such a diverse dynamic range, it's exceeded my expectations.

    My old friend is back

    Posted by CHARLES D. on June 5, 2025

    My old friend is back. I’m a long time Nikon shooter. My last great camera … still works…still great…is my D810. I acquired a z6 about a year ago. Good camera, but not a D810 replacement. I finally got my z8. I’m there! My great D810 in a modern form. Great focus tracking. Wonderful quality images.

    I have had a lot of cameras, but nothing has blown me away like the Z8!

    Posted by drjim on June 1, 2025

    I have a D850 and a Z6, but used the D850 99% of the time. I had NO IDEA what an upgrade the Z8 would be over the Z6. Don't get me wrong, I love my D850, but I have found my new "go to" camera now. The capability absolutely blows my mind. The Z8 actually takes far superior shots in a great many situations. This camera and my new 28-400 zoom will be with me from now on as I travel. I could NOT be more pleased!

    I had to buy my Z8

    Posted by Thomas L. on June 1, 2025

    I recently purchased my Z8 when my Z9 failed (an anomaly, I hope and Nikon should have it back soon.). It is nice because the Z8 and Z9 have almost identical controls. With this camera, I spent an appropriate amount of time setting it up to meet my type of shooting, and paid extra attention to the focus system and Shooting Banks. If you are new to the camera, spend some time watching some YouTube videos. The myriad of features on this camera make it suitable for any kind of photography. I have worked my way through the Z-series after switching from my D850 (I still miss it), however spending some time shooting makes using this camera more comfortable, more fun and I am getting to the point where it is second nature.

    Good camera. Could use some adjustments and simplifications.

    Posted by PHILIP M. on June 1, 2025

    A good camera and good quality pictures. Not as much of an upgrade as I was expecting but good. The auto focus is good but still misses a lot. The high iso is good, but still grainy. I think my expectations were too high for any camera to fulfill. The biggest problem I have is it's complicated and find it difficult to learn. The menu's are complicated and extensive. I find the buttons complicated and unintuitive. I'm used to using the front wheel for ISO and the back one for aperture but that st up can't be made on the Z8. The set up is redundant as there are 2 options for exposure compensation and they are active at the same time. For ISO you have to push a button and turn the wheel always. Could be an easy fix. So, in the end, I am new to the Z8 and have a few disappointments but I am getting pictures I would never have gotten before. also, I love the viewfinder in low light.

    Nikon's best mirrorless camera to date!

    Posted by Dave C. on May 30, 2025

    The Z8 is Nikon's best mirrorless camera to date! There are too many features I like about this camera to list here. Here are a couple... The Z8s low light performance is very good. You will not believe the performance, even at ISO 10000. Some of the physical attributes are a plus. Slightly larger than the Z6/7 but smaller than a Z9. It seems to be the right size. I also appreciate that it uses the same batteries as the Z6 series. A plus if you have been using the Z6/7 series cameras. You can use Cfast cards, XQD cards or the smaller SD/SX cards, making it versatile when choosing which media you like to use. Like all Nikons, it uses the same basic menu structure. So, if you have a Z9 you will be familiar with a lot of the menus. There are some new items on the Z8, so keep a look out for them when you start setting up your new Z8. Finally, it has the ability to focus very quickly. It seems to be a bit faster than my other mirrorless and mirrored cameras. I think you will find the Z8 to be your go-to camera. I did and I have only owned mine for a week!
