Name: Nikon Z 8 - Body - digital cameras
Brand: Nikon

Nikon Z 8 (body) arrives as a pro-grade MILC body that combines high-resolution imaging with class-leading speed and 8K video capabilities.

The Nikon Z 8 features a 45.7 MP CMOS sensor (FX format) with an effective resolution up to 8256 x 5504 pixels and a total of 52.37 MP of sensor data, delivering remarkable detail for large prints and careful cropping.

Autofocus performance is exceptional thanks to the Nikon Z mount, 493 AF points and flexible AF modes (continuous and single), with both automatic and manual AF point selection to suit fast action or precise studio work.

Low‑light shooting is supported by an ISO range from 64 to 25,600 (plus Auto), and the electronic shutter offers speeds from 1/32000 s down to 30 s, allowing both action‑freezing and long‑exposure creativity. Exposure metering includes centre‑weighted, matrix, partial and spot, with ±3 EV exposure compensation in 1/2 or 1/3 EV steps.

Video creators will appreciate the Nikon Z 8's 8K Ultra HD recording up to 7680 x 4320 and a wide variety of capture frame rates, including 4K up to 120fps and Full HD up to 120fps for slow‑motion. Videos record in MOV or MP4, and onboard stereo mic, mic input and headphone output make monitoring straightforward.

The camera is built for professional workflows with dual memory card slots (CFexpress, SD, XQD), USB Type‑C (USB 2.0/3.2 Gen 1), HDMI, Bluetooth 5.0 and Wi‑Fi (including 802.11ac). A 3.2" touchscreen LCD with 170° viewing and a 0.5" electronic viewfinder at 0.8x magnification (approx. 3,690,000‑pixel) ensure confident composition.

Ergonomically the Z 8 is weather‑resistant, supports tripod mounting and uses a single EN‑EL15c Li‑Ion battery for reliable shooting; it measures 144 x 83 x 118.5 mm and weighs 820 g (910 g with battery), finished in a professional black.

Use cases include high‑resolution landscape and studio photography, wildlife and sports where fast AF and high shutter speeds are essential, and cinema‑grade video production thanks to 8K/4K capture. Key selling points are its 45.7 MP FX sensor, 8K video, 493‑point AF system, dual card slots and pro connectivity.
