OVERVIEW
Built using flagship DNA, the Nikon
Z8 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
Z8 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.
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. Nikon NIKKOR Z 24-70mm f/4 S
Covering a useful range of focal
lengths, the NIKKOR Z 24-70mm f/4 S is a versatile zoom, spanning wide-angle to
portrait-length perspectives. Its constant f/4 maximum aperture maintains a
consistent exposure throughout the zoom range and also helps to realize a more
compact and lightweight alternative to an f/2.8 zoom. In regard to the optical
design, a unique aspherical extra-low dispersion element, in addition to three
aspherical elements, is used to help reduce chromatic aberrations and
distortions throughout the zoom range in order to achieve high image sharpness
and clarity. Both Nano Crystal and Super Integrated Coatings have also been
applied to control flare and ghosting for greater contrast and color rendering
in bright and backlit conditions.
