Z f

I've only had my Zf for a few weeks, but definitely like it so far. Pictures are sharp and colors are rendered as I viewed them. Controls are easy to learn and operate with a "crispness" that I like. My only nit is the unavailability of "back button focus," such as that on my Z9. The AF-L/AE-E button cannot initiate focus; that has to be done with the shutter release and then the AF/AE can be used to hold the focus. That's a problem that needs to be addressed-maybe with a software update?

Rekindled my passion for photography. This camera is everything it tried to be, it is beautiful and stylish without losing substance and no crazy price tag on it.

After 40 years, it brings back the very same feeling I had when shooting with a Nikon FM.The Nikon Zf is slightly larger, which actually makes it easier and more comfortable to handle. The build quality is outstanding—the level of craftsmanship is truly excellent.As for the results, especially in Black & White mode, I absolutely love them. I’m currently using it with a set of vintage Nikkor lenses (35 / 50 / 105), adapted via the FTZ for now—pure manual focus. That said, I will eventually add a dedicated lens to take advantage of autofocus and the camera’s automation.A wonderful product. Congratulations

Simply a beautiful camera that takes beautiful photos. It reminds me of my Nikon camera fifty years ago and why I loved taking photos with it. Everything about the Zf is perfect. I got this to get back into photography and it has worked remarkably well. I carry it with me every day.

Love this camera, from the retro looks to the files it produces. Bought for a walking around, carry with me all the time camera and coupled with the 26mm pancake lens, it is superb.

I love the retro look if my new Zf. It reminds me of my first Nikon, A Nikkormat I bought in 1968 and the many other Nikons I have had before going digital. It's solid and heavier than I expected with some getting used to the manual dial and narrow right hand grip. I bought a Newer grip which helps. I like flip out screen which my Z8 and Z7 don't have and the functionality is excellent as expected. Yes, I would always choose my Z8 in a comparison but I'm glad I have it and am charmed by the retro look.

This Zf is an awesome retro camera a reminder of the good old past. Not sure what the " f " stands for.When power is off & camera is shaken a bit you'll hear a rattle noise inside the body, some say this is due to the anti-vibration mechanism. The noise disappears when power is on. Other models don't do this. When you choose 3 x 3 or 4 x 4 grid lines on the menu they don't show up on the viewfinder or monitor screen. Some of the nice Z lenses have plastic mounts while others have metal mounts. What ever happened to "Made in Japan" , what you're seeing now is "Made in Thailand or China" on the labels. I gave 4 stars instead of 5 due to reasons above .

I have been a Nikon shooter since my photojournalism classes at NIUi on film and an FM. My first pro camera was a N90s. I then jumped in early with the Kodak N90 digital. Too soon as the internet couldn’t handle the large files. I still have my D’s and still love my 850. The zf was purchased as a street camera for exploring Chicago. I love the look of the camera I love the click when you press the shutter button, but what is really amazing is how good the exposures are with this camera. I also bought an SB 5000 flash in the pair are truly amazing. I’ve always been blown away by Nikons ability to get the exposure right with flash. I have been using the system like I said for 40 years one truly great thing that separates Nikon apart from others is the fact that I can still use my old F Mount lenses on the newest camera even if I need an adapter now with mirrorless that I will never shoot with anything other than Nikon. Most fun I’ve had in decades shooting again.

I have found the Zf to be a great camera and fun to use! I love having the dials again it is a kick to use them, but have the other options too. The only thing that is a pain is the micro memory card I'm always afraid that I will drop it or it will get lost it is so tiny.
