The Nikon Zf is at the top of my Nikon wishlist, and with its price now at just £1,605.33 at John Lewis I'm sorely tempted!
It doesn't matter whether you have a Nikon Z8 and Z9 or you're a Sony or Canon stalwart, the Nikon Zf is one of those rare cameras that's just devilishly appealing. It's not hard to work out why, either. It inherited its good looks from the legendary Nikon FM2, one of the most gorgeous SLR cameras ever made.
The Nikon Zf is built around a 24.5-MP full-frame sensor, which immediately sets it apart from the cropped sensor retro offerings from Fujifilm and OM System. When I reviewed the camera for N-Photo: The Nikon Magazine, I was immediately taken aback by the authentic retro feel of the robust precision-milled brass mechanical dials, present on the top plate. And if that wasn't authentic enough, they'll patina with age.
Pair this svelte body with the special, retro edition of the Nikon Z 40mm f/2 and you'd be forgiven for thinking it a real film camera from yesteryear. But beneath that robust body and eye-popping leatherette, you'll find cutting-edge mod cons.
It borrows autofocus tech from the flagship Nikon Z9 and can focus in low light down to an impressive -10EV. It boasts in-body image stabilization that can compensate for up to 8 stops (with compatible lenses). And it houses Nikon's latest Expeed 7 image processor, and can deliver 4K 60p video footage.
As far as Nikon's mirrorless hierarchy goes, it sits between the Nikon Z6 II and Nikon Z6 III in terms of its specs.
