Pros: Files, autofocus, ergonomics, speed, Nikon of those done well!

Cons: Not having it or finding faults due to one's own inability (or simple lack of reading the manual) -.-

Opinion: Premise: it was given to me. I already own a z7 ii which I'm extremely happy with, this z8 represents another Nikon shot to raise the bar of quality / brand experience. It is a reactive bomb and performs great in every photographic genre, the gap shows it in action photos where the z7II (obviously) remains to watch enviously. It requires (like its sister z7 II) quality lenses, but still manages to do well even with poor lenses. It is not a machine that you can pick up if you are a "Sunday photographer". Ultimately: z8 10+, Nikon has reiterated that it knows how to do well.

Pros: All

Cons: Batteries and autofocus in special conditions (see text)

Opinion: Even the undersigned shoots with Nikon for some decades and therefore part ?... F2, F100, D40 D7200 D700 D800 D810 D850 for SLRs and Z6 and now Z8 for mirrorless... I loved them all and all always fit me perfectly and for each of them I found many merits and few defects then came the D850 a perfect machine, in my opinion, useful on every occasion, but mom Nikon has not given up and since the margin of improvement could only be to veer forcefully towards the world Z at that point it launched on the market first Z9 and then Z8. Z8 is an excellent machine that is not free from defects even if it touches perfection ... One of these is given by the batteries that have a somewhat short duration and force you not to use the convenient communication options with other open devices slowing down the workflow a little (unless you have the possibility to connect it to the mains) but with a software or hardware update you can buffer. The autofocus compared to what Nikon has proposed to us until the appearance of the Z9 that has given a focusing system with artificial intelligence really level ... Excellent tracking of the subject and eyes (although every now and then "barella" a little if there are movements too sudden improved via software) even in low light conditions, almost magical. For the rest there is little to say the machine has improved and speeded up the workflow, allows me to spend less time in posts and to have a reliable means for any type of work from portrait to sport to ceremonies to travel! My car today 24/08/23 left for a small trip to LTR to remedy the defect of the poorly fixed hooks (in a month of use I did not notice any problem but the risk is not worth the candle ...) and we hope that the 4-day estimate for the return are real ... I will update you on this. Update the machine returned to me from LTR assistance today 29/08/2023 so 2 working days of work and 2 of travel!!

Pros: Ergonomics, file quality, autofocus, speed.

Cons: Nobody

Opinion: I have been a Nikonist for almost half a century, so I confess that my evaluation could be a little bit conditioned by my unwavering faith. I fell in love with it because it is the only machine that sticks to the hand and does not come off anymore. For ergonomics and for the sake of holding it, qualities that I have not found in any other machine, not at this level of pleasure. And yes, I have had, and used, several. Just to say, the Sony in my opinion, certainly technically advanced, in the hands do not fit: bite. I was, and still am, a loyal D850, certainly the best DSLR ever built, but I had not yet made the jump to the Z series, except for a Z6II that I still kept and use with Voigtlander lenses. The Nikon Z8 is in my opinion the equivalent of the D850 for mirrorless, a bit as if Nikon had decided to put the arrow and leave them all there. A bit late, perhaps, but that's fine with me. There is this story of calls, not too pleasant, but the rainy season will come and I will also be able to do without it for a few days. It will be like buying it again, but this time without spending a euro. Small update: I sent the machine to service for the recall of the rings. Returned after the strictly technical times, collected on Tuesday and returned the following Tuesday, the invoice generically indicates the revision of the belt attachment. In my opinion, as in most cases, they simply subjected the attacks to a tensile test that evidently showed no anomalies. On the net I could not see a single video that highlighted the defect, but I must have been careless. In any case, the machine is formidable.

Pros: Autofocus speed, file quality, body ergonomics

Cons: Some uncertainty in the more dynamic focus

Opinion: I bought the Z8 about a month and a half ago and so far I can be more than satisfied in every respect. The files are detailed but at the same time light thanks to the new compression algorithms, practically with twice as many megapixels the weight is slightly higher than the file of a Z6II... Not bad!! Yield at high iso excellent and equal again to the Z6II which has half the megapixels so in theory a machine with more megapixels should generate more grain and instead is equal and indeed it seems to me that the Z8 generates a more pleasant grain than the Z6II. Dynamic range, perhaps I would have expected something more but it is still very high and comparable to the other mirrorless Z. Battery life well beyond expectations, I made a service at the theater taking 4000 photos without problems ... The important thing is to disable the various connections that knock down the battery. Fast autofocus and with many options, perhaps it has some uncertainty with fast-moving subjects but nothing so problematic. Last note, my car is in stock of the Z8 with the problem with the attachment of the lenses and the eyelets of the belt that could detach. So far, neither problem has arisen. I doubt that the lenses start from nothing not to hook properly, while as for the attachment of the strap at the moment I'm not experiencing problems but obviously I keep an eye on the situation.

Pros: AF system, customizations, viewfinder

Cons: For now nothing apart from the cost of CFexpress

Opinion: Taken shortly after arriving in stores I'm discovering it with use. I had already tried the Z9 several times so I was not surprised by the quality of the viewfinder and the AF system, in my opinion more than up to any need. The body is heavier and slightly more voluminous than the Z6 had to date but it is not a limit; For example, I did not take the additional base having a more than adequate grip already so. The battery does not give a sign of excessive consumption, just disable the wi-fi connections and the duration is fully comparable with that of the other Z (Z9 excluded), for those who intend to make a professional use it is certainly advisable to always have a second spare battery with you. Taken in kit with a CFE Lexar Diamond I do not have the slightest slowdown, neither with bursts at 20 fps nor with 8K video, I have not tested it under the direct sun but, for now, I have not noticed overheating or safety warnings. I will continue to update my review with use, but still found no compelling reason to complain about the purchase. PS: Lens mount and strap hooks all ok.
