Product Description

Nikon Z8 Mirrorless Camera with 24-70mm f/2.8 Lens Kit

Compact, Lightweight, Powerful

Built using flagship DNA, the Nikon Z8 Mirrorless Camera with 24-70mm f/2.8 Lens Kit is a compact, lightweight camera housing much of the technology from the Z9 but in a sleeker, more portable package. Dubbed the ultimate hybrid camera, the Nikon Z8 Mirrorless Camera with 24-70mm f/2.8 Lens Kit features the same proven sensor, processing, and AF capabilities of the flagship with a new body design that better suits gimbal use, event shooting, and other handheld applications.

Flagship Sensor and Processing

45.7MP Stacked BSI CMOS Sensor

Featuring the same sensor that debuted in the Z9, the FX-format 45.7MP BSI stacked CMOS sensor offers a useful combination of resolution, fast readout speeds, impressive clarity, and minimal noise. The stacked design contributes to reduced rolling shutter, while the BSI designation ensures improved noise levels when working at the top end of the extended ISO 32-102400 range. Also, the 45.7MP resolution and full-frame sensor size hit a sweet spot that benefits photographers working in detail-oriented genres as well as enables recording video at resolutions up to 8K.

EXPEED 7 Image Processor

Complementing the sensor is the EXPEED 7 processing engine, which offers speeds approximately 10x faster than a Z7 II. This engine works in conjunction with the stacked sensor design to realise impressively fast AF speeds, burst shooting rates, a high buffer capacity, fluid video performance, and quick all-around handling.

Top continuous shooting speeds of 20 fps when shooting in raw, 30 fps when shooting in JPEG, 60 fps when shooting 19MP JPEGs using a DX area, and an impressive 120 fps shooting rate when recording 11MP stills, with all rates supporting full AF/AE performance.
Able to buffer over 1000 raw images in a burst, meaning raw image sequences can be recorded for approximately 50 seconds continuously. Also, during playback, you can skip to the first shot of a given burst to expedite the on-camera review process.

Pre-Release Capture helps make decisive moment shots easier by recording frames in a burst for up to a second before actually releasing the shutter. When this feature is activated, burst shooting will commence when the shutter is half-pressed, and the buffer will retain up to a second’s worth of frames before fully pressing the shutter.
Electronic shutter affords a top shutter speed of 1/32,000 sec for working in the brightest conditions with wider apertures.

Stacked sensor design reduces rolling shutter distortion, so fast-moving subjects, like a golf club, tennis racket, or baseball bat, do not appear distorted when working with shutter speeds up to 1/32,000 sec.
AF calculations are done at a 120 fps rate to keep up with fast continuous shooting speeds.
High Efficiency RAW file format maintains image quality akin to uncompressed raw files, but with file sizes approximately 30% smaller for faster reading/writing to the memory card.
Stills can also be saved in the HEIF file format; a useful evolution from JPEG, this 10-bit format offers 1 billion more colours for greater realism and dynamic range when viewed on HLG-compatible displays while still retaining the small file size as a JPEG.
Motion Blend Retouch feature can be used to produce an in-camera composite that depicts a series of subject movements within a single frame.
Long Exposure display includes a live exposure timer on the rear LCD, along with the ability to dim the viewfinder to better preserve your night-adjusted vision.

Electronic Shutter-Only Design

Relying on the speed and stacked design of the sensor, the Z8 completely forgoes a mechanical shutter and uses just an electronic shutter for all capture modes. The speed of the sensor enables recording at up to 1/32,000 sec, and the stacked structure reduces motion distortion for accurate depiction of fast-moving subjects, like golf clubs, baseball bats, and automobiles. Also, despite the absence of a mechanical shutter, flash sync up to 1/200 sec. is still supported,d as well as high-speed sync functions.

By removing the mechanical shutter, the Z8 can also operate completely silently, and there is no worry over mechanical shutter wear or breakdown. A shutter release sound can be added for awareness when a photo is being taken, and the volume can be adjusted to suit different working scenarios.

More Beautiful Portraits

Perfect for portraits, the Z8 improves on the sensor’s inherent capabilities with a series of processing tools and shooting functions to improve portraits:

Fine-tune hue and brightness while shooting for more precise control while shooting.
Skin softening can be used on up to three subjects in a shot and slightly blurs the skin for a more pleasing texture while still retaining essential sharpness on eyes and hair.
Manual white balance control is more intuitive when making adjustments, and Auto WB has also been optimised for human subjects.

Fast and Intelligent AF

493-Point Phase-Detection AF

Covering the full sensor area, the Nikon Z8 Mirrorless Camera with 24-70mm f/2.8 Lens Kit uses the flagship 493-point phase-detection AF system to realise fast and accurate focusing performance. This system is benefitted by the high-speed communication of the Z interface along with the speed of the sensor, which enables AF readings to occur at up to 120 fps.

This focusing system also supports working in low-light conditions with a Starlight mode that permits focusing down to -9 EV to greatly benefit astrophotography, concerts, and other nighttime shooting applications. Also useful for working in difficult lighting conditions, Backlit AF uses separate pixels on the sensor for AF, allowing these areas to intentionally overexpose for focusing accuracy purposes without impacting the actual exposure of the recorded image.

A mainstay focusing mode in DSLRs, which debuted for mirrorless with the Z9, the Nikon Z8 Mirrorless Camera with 24-70mm f/2.8 Lens Kit also includes 3D Tracking AF that pairs with subject detection to lock onto fast, erratically moving subjects that move parallel and perpendicular to the camera. Additionally, there are three Dynamic-Area AF modes, with a range of focus area sizes, for capturing a wide variety of moving subject types.

Subject Detection with Deep Learning Technology

Utilising inherited algorithms and deep learning technology from the Z9, including sophisticated Subject Detection, the Nikon Z8 Mirrorless Camera with 24-70mm f/2.8 Lens Kit can recognise a variety of distinct subject types, ranging from humans to animals to aeroplanes to bicycles. When working in Auto-Area AF, these subjects will automatically be detected, focused on, and tracked to ensure sharp focus when the subject is moving across the frame.

Eye-Detection AF, specifically, has been tuned for improved accuracy and refined recognition of eyes in the scene, regardless of how small or large they are within the image frame, and can also be used in conjunction with custom Wide-Area AF for different subject shapes and sizes.

Internal 8K60 and 4K 120 Recording

Equally capable for video, the Nikon Z8 Mirrorless Camera with 24-70mm f/2.8 Lens Kit matches the Z9’s recording capabilities here, as well, with a variety of resolutions and frame rates available up to 8K. Using full pixel readout, UHD 8K 30p video can be recorded, with continuous shooting possible for approximately 2 hours and 5 minutes.

UHD 4K and Full HD recording is also possible in a variety of frame rates, including full-frame 4K recording at up to 120p for slow-motion playback. Using an 8K area, oversampled UHD 4K recording is possible at up to 60p for increased sharpness and detail. Also, high-resolution frame grabs can be recorded in camera from 8K and 4K videos, for producing 33MP or 11MP stills, respectively.

12-Bit N-RAW and ProRes RAW Video

Internal 12-bit raw recording at up to 8.3K 60p in the N-RAW format is supported along with internal ProRes RAW HQ. Raw recording offers greater tonal and colour latitude and can improve dynamic range, benefitting color grading needs and post-production flexibility.

N-RAW is Nikon’s own raw recording format that offers impressively small file sizes compared to other raw formats, as well as the ability to create MP4 proxies for more efficient previewing or transferring.
N-RAW recording is available at up to 8.3K at 60p or 24p; 4.1K at up to 120p; 5.3K at up to 60p with a 1.5x crop; and 3.8K at 120p with a 2.3x crop.
ProRes RAW recording is also available at up to 4.1K and 60p.

ProRes and H.265 10-Bit Recording

Internal recording is also supported with 10-bit colour and 4:2:2 sampling in the ProRes 422 HQ and H.265 codecs, and H.264 and 4:2:0 colour can be used depending on workflow needs. For more latitude when colour grading in post, there is also a 10-bit N-Log setting as well as a Flat colour profile. Additionally, HLG (Hybrid Log Gamma) can be used for creating HDR-ready content straight from the camera.

Recording Support

Aiding the impressive recording specs, the Nikon Z8 Mirrorless Camera with 24-70mm f/2.8 Lens Kit also incorporates a variety of useful recording tools and functions for use in productions:

Red REC frame indicator on EVF and LCD during recording to easily recognise when recording is being captured.
Dedicated video info display indicates various recording settings, such as frame size, frame rate, audio settings, codec, bit depth, and HDMI output settings. Some of these settings will also be visible on the camera’s top control panel.
Focus peaking and zebra stripes are visual aids to help achieve sharp focus and accurate exposure.

Waveform monitor for real-time exposure analysis.
Fine ISO control in Manual mode for adjusting exposure in 1/6-stop increments.
Fast AF-ON function can be assigned to Fn buttons; it is now possible to assign two different AF speeds to different buttons.
Slow shutter speed video is supported, slower than 1/frame rate, for working in extreme low-light conditions or for creating intentionally blurred effects.
Timecode linking is possible when working with an optional timecode generator.
Complementing the video capabilities, the Nikon Z8 Mirrorless Camera with 24-70mm f/2.8 Lens Kit also supports 24-bit linear PCM sound recording and offers compatibility with external XLR microphones via the optional Tascam CA-XLR2d-AN digital adapter.

A Smaller Professional Body Design

Sleek, Modular, and Durable Construction

Deemed the true successor to the D850 DSLR and the smaller follow-up to the flagship Z9, the Z8 hits a sweet spot in terms of size and performance. It is 30% smaller than the Z9 and 15% smaller than the D850.
Compared to the Z9, with its built-in vertical grip, the Z8 takes on a more modular design, allowing you to keep it small for day-to-day shooting or pair it with the optional MB-N12 Power Battery Pack grip for improved ergonomics when shooting vertical and better battery life. Also, the smaller, lighter design makes the Z8 an ideal candidate for rigging or use on a gimbal for video use.
Dual card slots—one CFexpress Type B slot and one UHS-II SD slot—allow for flexible file saving. The CFx slot is suitable for data-intensive applications, like 8K recording and high-speed burst shooting, while the SD slot retains compatibility with the popular storage format. Additionally, the CFx B slot is also compatible with XQD memory cards.

Built using eco-friendly Seerebo carbon fibre and robust magnesium alloy, the Z8 manages to be both durable and lightweight, weighing just 2 lb.
Premium weather sealing protects against dust and moisture for confident use in harsh climates.
The included EN-EL15c battery offers approximately 340 frames per charge when primarily using the viewfinder or 370 shots per charge when primarily using the LCD monitor. The Z8 is also compatible with other EN-EL15-series batteries.
In-body Vibration Reduction now supports Synchro VR to achieve up to 6 stops of camera shake compensation when used with select Z lenses.
Helping to cut down on dust reaching the sensor, the Z8 incorporates a sensor shield that protects the sensor surface when changing lenses. For additional dust prevention, there is also a dual electro-conductive and fluorine coating on the optical filter covering the sensor.
Backlit buttons offer easier navigation and button recognition when working in low-light conditions.

Real-Live Viewfinder

Real-Live Viewfinder is an advanced EVF utilising a 3.69m-dot OLED panel with adjustable luminance up to 3000 cd/m2 for clear visibility in bright conditions. This EVF also works in conjunction with dual-stream technology for blackout-free viewing when shooting continuously, and it features a high fps function, which ups the EVF’s refresh rate to 120 fps for smoother, lifelike viewing.

Four-Axis Tilting LCD

Like the Z9, the Z8 incorporates a unique 3.2″ 2.1m-dot four-axis tilting touchscreen LCD that better supports working from high and low angles, regardless if shooting in the horizontal or vertical orientation.

Nikon NIKKOR Z 24-70mm f/2.8 S Lens

Bright and versatile, the NIKKOR Z 24-70mm f/2.8 S from Nikon is a workhorse standard zoom, covering wide-angle to portrait-length fields of view. Characterised by its bright f/2.8 constant maximum aperture, this lens is suitable for working in a variety of lighting conditions and also offers increased control over depth of field for isolating subjects and working with selective focus. The optical design incorporates a pair of extra-low dispersion elements along with four aspherical elements, which help to control chromatic and spherical aberrations throughout the zoom range for improved clarity and sharpness. Additionally, ARNEO and Nano Crystal Coats, as well as a Super Integrated Coating, have been applied to suppress flare, ghosting, and surface reflections for improved contrast and colour fidelity.

Complementing the optical design, a multi-focus system, which employs two stepping motors, helps to realise impressively fast, accurate, and quiet focus performance, along with full-time manual focus override, to suit both stills and video needs. The lens also has a unique physical design, which incorporates a top OLED information panel that can be used to quickly confirm aperture and focus settings, and an assignable L.Fn button permits making exposure and settings adjustments via the lens. Additionally, a programmable control ring can be set for intuitive adjustment over a variety of camera and exposure settings.

Standard zoom covers a wide-angle to portrait-length range and is designed for FX-format Z-mount mirrorless cameras.

Constant f/2.8 maximum aperture offers consistent performance throughout the zoom range and also benefits working in difficult lighting conditions and using selective focus techniques.

Four aspherical elements are used to reduce spherical aberrations and distortion in order to realise sharp imagery with accurate rendering.

Two extra-low dispersion elements greatly reduce colour fringing and chromatic aberrations throughout the zoom range in order to produce greater clarity and colour rendering.

ARNEO and Nano Crystal Coats are used to prevent ghosting, reflections, and flare in order to realise improved contrast and clarity when working in strong lighting and backlit conditions. The Nano Crystal Coat controls incidental light from a diagonal direction, while the ARNEO Coat controls incidental light from a vertical direction. A Super Integrated Coating is also featured on multiple elements to help ensure consistently accurate colours.

The multi-focus system incorporates two separate AF drive units, which are synchronised, to deliver especially fast and accurate focusing throughout the zoom range. This system uses stepping motors, which offer impressively smooth and quiet autofocus performance that is well-suited to both stills and video applications. Full-time manual focus override is also possible, and an internal focusing design is used, where only the internal lens groups are moved during focusing, to maintain the overall length of the lens during use and to promote faster focusing speeds.

Programmable Control Ring is, by default, set to adjust manual focus, but can also be used to control aperture or exposure compensation.

Integrated OLED lens information panel allows you to quickly confirm aperture setting, focus distance, and depth of field figures right on the lens in both bright and dark situations.

Assignable L.Fn button works in conjunction with camera-based Fn buttons to provide a seamless point for quickly changing exposure settings and other functions.

Specialised electromagnetic aperture mechanism provides greater exposure control stability that is especially beneficial when working with fast continuous shooting rates.

Rounded nine-blade diaphragm promotes a pleasing out-of-focus quality that benefits the use of shallow depth of field and selective focus techniques.

Dust- and moisture-resistant lens barrel benefits the lens’s use in inclement conditions.
