Our take on the Nikon Z8 Mirrorless Camera with Z 180-600mm f/5.6-6.3 VR Lens

The Nikon Z8 is a full-frame mirrorless camera built on the same 45.7MP stacked BSI sensor and processing as the flagship Z9, in a smaller body. It shoots 8K video, has fast blackout-free burst shooting and Nikon's subject-detection autofocus, and here it comes bundled with the NIKKOR Z 180-600mm f/5.6-6.3 VR supertelephoto zoom. The pairing suits wildlife, bird and sports shooters who want reach and speed without flagship bulk. Against the Z9 it gives up the built-in vertical grip and dual-card convenience of a larger body; against the Z6 III it offers far more resolution and speed at a higher price and weight.

What reviewers say

Owners and reviewers treat the Z8 as a near-flagship at a lower weight, praising its autofocus, speed and 8K video. The 180-600mm is well liked for its reach and sharpness, with weight and the slow aperture at 600mm the common complaints.

What people mention
  • AutofocusPraisedReviewers say subject detection locks onto birds, animals and people reliably.
  • WeightCriticisedOwners find the 180-600mm tiring to carry and handhold for long sessions.
  • VideoPraised8K recording and internal codecs are called strong for hybrid work.
  • ApertureMixedThe f/5.6-6.3 range is fine in good light but slow at 600mm for dusk shooting.
  • BatteryCriticisedHeavy burst and video use drains the battery faster than a gripped body.

About the Nikon Z8 Mirrorless Camera with Z 180-600mm f/5.6-6.3 VR Lens

The Nikon Z8 is a compact, lightweight mirrorless camera built around much of the technology of the Nikon Z9 flagship. It has a body design suited to gimbal use, event shooting and other handheld work.

The camera uses a 45.7MP FX-format stacked BSI CMOS sensor with an EXPEED 7 image processor. The stacked design reduces rolling shutter distortion, and the BSI design helps keep noise low at the top of the extended ISO 32-102400 range. The sensor supports video recording at resolutions up to 8K. The processor is approximately 10x faster than the one in the Z7 II.

The Z8 has no mechanical shutter and uses an electronic shutter for all capture modes. This allows silent operation and removes mechanical shutter wear. A shutter release sound can be added for awareness. Flash sync up to 1/200 sec and high speed sync are still supported.
