Pros: Traking - Robustness and compactness

Cons: No mechanical shutter - File quality - Batteries that wear out immediately - Unwatchable viewfinder

Opinion: A great camera for what it costs, solid, compact, fast, has a good autofocus, too bad for the unwatchable viewfinder for a camera of this level, it has a very low resolution and internally very small. Another flaw the files that come out are not up to the 850, too bad for the pre capture only in jpeg ... for the rest nothing to say,

Pros: MAF and tracking, performance, file quality, no mechanical shutter

Cons: Unfortunately it uses 2 types of SD cards and CF express, on an almost flagship you don't understand the choice.

Pros: autofocus, silence, excellent file quality, excellent performance

Cons: To say autonomy at this point is pleonastic. It is like saying that an electric car has less autonomy than a diesel or a petrol car. It's a problem with mirrorless.

Opinion: Coming, among other things, from Nikon D 850, an exceptional camera that not surprisingly beat the competition, I must say that, despite a certain mistrust I had, I did not notice great differences, with the positive note of silence and autofocus and, of course, the negative of autonomy. Rather it seems to me to be at risk of breaking the battery door when you extract it by tearing it out by mounting the battery pack, wasn't a button better?

Pros: Many, and all together allow it to be Nikon's only Z-series prosumer

Cons: Just as many, and they are the ones that certainly do not allow it to be called a flagship

Opinion: I arrive last to spend a few words on this excellent ML and this for two reasons: first of all I love to try a car well before getting an idea, I don't write about it the day after bringing it home. And then I really didn't need the Z8, I already have Zf and Z9 of which I am very satisfied, I bought it for lack of purchase syndrome and for a lot, a lot of curiosity, and now I come to describe what are my (very questionable) opinions. I will not dwell on the merits of this beautiful ML, they have been well described (sometimes with excessive emphasis) by all those who preceded me. I summarize by saying only that it is an excellent prosumer dedicated - in my opinion - to super amateurs, to those aesthetes who really compose a photo as if they were painting a picture, the Z8 supports them in their art and returns files of great value, sometimes unparalleled. It is more difficult to define it as a camera for light rides, in addition to being heavy it is not really ergonomic. And weight and bulk tend to spread by adding the optics which, if you want to make sense of the considerable outlay for the Z8, should be an S series if not even super S. In short, a nice brick for a light exit, but let's move on, can we consider it a camera for work? I would tend to exclude ceremonies and events where the use of flash is not allowed: mathematics is not an opinion and physics is inescapable, with such a dense sensor you can't go up with ISO without paying a pledge, you want to be good-mouthed, I personally don't use it above 3,200. And as paradoxical as it is, with the Z9 (which should have the same sensor) I work easily at 6,400 ISO, mysteries of electronics! In addition, the Z8 is definitely greedy for energy, it is a fact, those who had decided to work on it should never go around with less than three original batteries. In short, let's say that for work - remaining on the Z system - the Z6 III is definitely unreachable. Let's go on again, can we say that the Z8 is ideal for sports and photographic hunting? Well, from a performance point of view she really doesn't lack skills but... Here too some notes must be made. Those who work handheld with medium-long and heavy lenses know how to give the right value to ergonomics, and understand very well that holding them in your hand for half a day with a Z8 is not exactly the same as doing it with a Z9! And again: as you know, unlike the Z9, the body of ours is not completely made of magnesium alloy, much of it is made of polycarbonate, it follows that with the long sequences the heat of the CFexpress does not disperse, the machine heats up like freshly made toast and consequently goes first into alarm and then into block. To close, it remains to talk about memory cards, and let's say right away that having used two different formats was bullshit! The CFexpress has a write speed N times higher than an SDXC so, imagining to set the camera to the fastest shutter rate and the second card in backup mode, how do you think an SD can keep up with a CFexpress without slowing down the shutter rate itself? Ok, enough I'll stop here, I've already earned the curses of the many owners who optimistically define the Z8 as a "flagship". So I won't talk about the two USB-C outputs and how bizarre it is that only one can be used to charge the battery from the outside, nor about other small flaws. All the above critical issues do not prevent me from using this camera with extreme satisfaction, when I am in the mood I load my f 1.2 or the Plena on it and (despite my decidedly mediocre skills) I enjoy like a monkey! But please let's go slowly, as per Nikon tradition there is only one, and the current one is certainly not the Z8 ...

Pros: Ergonomics, high ISO resistance, AF and tracking, reliability. Backlit keys.

Cons: Battery life. Memory card slot flap. Complex menus in my opinion: you have to study them a little before you feel at home (but a subjective evaluation).

Opinion: I have been lucky enough to use most of the brands for work and last, but not least, I find myself working with Nikon now. What can I say: the high ISO resistance, criticized by many, I see as excellent. You can't compare it to a 20, 24 or 33 mpx! Such a dense sensor is normal to have noise and even more than the previous sensors listed, but definitely manageable. Leaving aside the fact that for those who print, up to 12,800 ISO, on paper they are not noticeable, I shot up to 25600 ISO and even if the noise is evident, but the colors remain faithful, as well as the details and sharpness so desired ... With a minimum of posts, every difficulty is solved and the file is truly exceptional. The grain, or noise in my opinion remain very pleasant and what is important for me is not so much the noise (sorry for the repetition), rather it is important that colors and details remain. This way you can save the photo even in the most extreme situations. As for the AF, it's what I was looking for: to date, all the big tops have excellent AF and tracking, needless to say the opposite, where you throw yourself, you will feel good. But with her, and this is a personal opinion, for how she thinks with recognition and tracking, that's what I was looking for. Sometimes he loses the hook or in difficult situations, he can have difficulties, but it happens very few times... If we want to give numbers: he can make mistakes one time out of ten, just to be fiscal and that time obviously does not always happen, but only in situations of high stress with important backlights, or drastic light or really confusing backgrounds. But I always talk about borderline cases such as: sunset in shaded areas photographing small passerines in the middle of branches and twigs and I repeat: it rarely happens. The recognition: impeccable. The camera is large compared to other mirrorless cameras, but once you pick it up you never part with it. Comfortable, well balanced with the objectives. I, who have serious back problems and a broken hand that only works halfway, was afraid of the bulks and weights but paradoxically, they are so well distributed that I keep it with me all day in the forests that there is, it's clear: but I feel absolutely no discomfort. The viewfinder is truly spectacular. I can't find any other words to describe it. The monitor as well. I feel like being essential because I really don't know what to say more than that. I have not yet felt the overheating of the machines and/or memory cards. I reserve the right to add the defect if it now comes up on mine. The machine is complex. At first, because of the menus, you can find it frustrating... But once set properly, the menus can also be forgotten. It is a machine that can give great satisfaction but it is not for beginners with money. Put simply. You have to know how to work with it but in the end, it becomes a glove. For me at least it was like that. The battery is sufficient, but it does not cry out for a miracle. They could have done much better. The card compartment door opens too easily. Sometimes, taking the car out of my backpack, I find myself taking it out and opening it. We have to be careful. I got used to it and it never happened to me again.
