*12 Wide-area AF C1/C2 options in video mode
Subject detection and AF work all the way down to -6.5 EV. Activate Starlight Mode, and focus all the way down to -9 EV.
Z mount: Bigger. Better.
With more light reaching the sensor, fine details and textures are captured faithfully across the entire frame, from corner to corner.
NIKKOR Z lenses transform out-of-focus areas into a smooth, beautiful blur that makes subjects stand out.
With the largest full-frame mount of any mirrorless system, Z series lenses have larger rear elements that deliver more light to the sensor.
Many NIKKOR Z lenses all but eliminate focus breathing, maintaining a consistent viewing angle while pulling focus in videos.
The wide diameter of the Z mount accommodates more communication points, enabling larger amounts of metering and autofocus data to be shared between the lens and camera.
Use DSLR lenses with no loss of image quality.
Attach the FTZ II Mount Adapter (sold separately) and use over approximately 360 Nikon F-Mount lenses with no loss of image quality and all the benefits of the Z 8’s extraordinary sensor, image processing and in-body image stabilization.
In-body stabilization means every lens has VR.
The Z 8 has 5.5 stops of 5-axis image stabilization built right into its body (6.0 stops when using a NIKKOR Z lens that supports Synchro VR). That means even prime lenses get the benefits of VR for steadier video footage, more low-light capabilities and sharper results overall.
Pro workflow.
One USB data connector (SuperSpeed USB) for file transfers and connecting accessories, another dedicated for charging and providing constant power.
Dedicated tab giving you quick access to key settings.
The USB Type C data connector port supports IEEE 802.3ab gigabit Ethernet with a compatible adapter.
Upload images to a secure FTP server straight from the camera.

SnapBridge: Instant wireless mobile uploads.
NX MobileAir: Fast mobile-to-FTP uploads.
NX Field: Synchronized multiple remote shooting.
NX Tether: Streamlined workflow for you, your team and clients.
