The Z8 is one of Nikon's hottest cameras. Previous N-Photo editor Adam Waring tested it for us and said in his review:

“It borrows much of its form factor and handling characteristics from the Nikon D850 – widely considered to be the best all-around DSLR ever made – and has a fair shout at staking its claim to be the best all-around full-frame mirrorless the world has ever seen."

The Nikon D850 was undeniably one of Nikon's best DSLRs, and the Nikon Z8 feels like its mirrorless successor. This camera is incredibly versatile and about 15% smaller than the flagship Nikon Z9, making it lighter and easier to handle. Whether you're into portraits, landscapes, or fast-paced sports photography, the Z8's lightning-fast maximum shutter speed of 1/32,000 sec has you covered.

While it doesn’t have the unlimited recording capabilities of the Z9, it still impresses with up to 120 minutes of 4K 60p or 90 minutes of 8K 30p recording. Combined with its high-resolution sensor, rapid burst mode, and dual CFExpress/SD card slots, the Z8 is a fantastic hybrid camera that’s just as suited for video as it is for stills.

In testing, the Z8 really stood out. Sure, there were occasional autofocus misses when shooting through trees, but overall, it’s tough to fault this camera. It delivers nearly all the top-tier features of the Z9 but in a smaller, more affordable package. Whether you’re a pro or an enthusiastic amateur looking to elevate your photography, the Nikon Z8 is a stellar choice.
