Review: Nikon....Bye Bye. - Excellent camera on paper but in reality, it's more marketing than anything else on many aspects! The video image quality is superb but that doesn't make it a video camera but more a very good camera! So yes, the technical sheet makes you dream, 8k60 nraw, pro res raw, 4k oversampled, 4k120 without crop, almost zero rolling shutter, very good in low light and robust body but in reality and me who was looking for a camera for video mainly, I turned to Nikon, after having moved from Sony and Lumix but what a mistake! in my opinion and according to what I'm obviously looking for, Nikon is an excellent brand but they are years behind Lumix for video, autofocus on a gimbal with fast rear movements, are a disaster even with a native lens and specific settings, the Z8's autofocus is far behind Lumix S5IIX in video, except in low light, the body is made of plastic so it heats up a lot! I tried several types of cf express but where I am it's hot it's impossible to film a video shoot outdoors! In short Lumix's strong point is to make their cameras compatible with SSDs but Nikon will not do it because they will not be able to do it on their range above Z9, in any case for me it's a first on Nikon and the last time, paying 4000usd for a video camera, which limits you in your actions, it's not worth it. Bad AF video, overheating, cf express too expensive, N-log to rec709 weak compared to v-log and s-log3, believe me stay away from Nikon cameras for the moment!, I'll come back one day maybe but not now. UPDATE> Ok, I'm coming back to the z8's autofocus, I almost sold it and I still decided to buy the 50mm 1.4 z, a latest-gen native lens, to see how the AF works and I have to say that in video, it's now very, very good! it manages to surpass my s5IIX in autofocus, after some research, I saw a lot of possibilities to improve the camera that heats up, like a Zitay SSD to the express cf or Exascend pro or element pro cards for example with lower voltage 1.25v at 400mb/s, so this card should be the best for this camera, I'll get back to you on that soon but in practice in h265 or Nraw 4k 30p, you can film for more than 2 hours without the camera emitting a signal which is a pretty good sign! I also improved the Nlog to the rec709 on Davinci resolve because the one given by Nikon was bad! with just a few options on the software and the use of RED luts, it becomes very very good. in short, with patience... so I change my rating, only morons don't change their opinion.
Review: If you can get this, GET IT! - Long time Nikon shooter and they really out did themselves with this camera. Amazing, light weight and powerful. So much to relearn even after shooting for 30+ years. The options it offers from focus stacking, the quality of the image to the new lens speed and clarity, topped off by the 8k video or the 4k 120 options in Nlog or regular video shooting mode. This camera is worth every penny IMHO. If you have the $$$$ and are on the fence, believe me you will be so happy you got it. I have only had it a month or so and I am over the moon and soon I will be taking pictures of it. :D

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Are this camaras gray market????**
A: No, Amazon is authorized.

**Q: Does Nikon use the order date or ship date to determine warranty status? It could take months before mine is shipped.**
A: It's usually the day you receive it or take possession of it

**Q: Can this be used for webinars?**
A: Yes, but it’s probably overkill. Most webinars don’t need more than HD video, and this camera goes way past that. Unless you’re doing some very dramatic webinars with challenging lighting, closeups of speakers, etc., you could do just fine with a Nikon Z50 or equivalent. But I don’t know your needs so this is just my humble opinion.

**Q: Is it possible to use one usb-c port for both power and data when tethering to a computer like the z7ii, z6ii, and z9?**
A: No, power delivery is on the bottom USB port only.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A wonderful camera, but there's a learning curve
*by L***R on March 12, 2024*

I've been a Nikon user for decades and come from the D850. The D850 is a great camera but the weight and clunk the mirror makes make it a problem at times. The Z8 solves those issues. It is also very nice that I can use all my D850 batteries. I got the Z 14-24mm f2.8 which is amazing. I will now refi my house and sell my fist born to get other Z lenses. I upgraded the software to version 2.0 which went smoothly. I set about configuring the camera to the way I shoot. The options for setting the way the shutter, viewfinder mode, histogram display and monitor interact are quite complex. I called Nikon when I got stuck. They have live help which I appreciate. They told me about the viewfinder mode button which I did not know existed. Beyond that they could not answer my questions and said that they would get back to me. They never did. So I went and did a flowchart of how all the factors noted above modify the camera's behavior. It took me about five hours of hard work but I got it all figured out. Hint: it all starts with setting playback menu > picture review on. Now, the photo I just took appears in the viewfinder which is great because on a sunny day, the monitor is hard to see. I can also press the ok button and see a histogram. Its hard to imagine that the Z8 could not be set up to satisfy even the most demanding user. The "user's manual" the camera comes with is a joke. It's tiny and contains only the barest information. You will need to go online for the real manual. There is a problem here. In many places, the manual refers to a "G Button" followed by "A" and "U". There is no such thing. It means nothing. I called and they told me (after a lot of "checking") that it was a "typo." Seems to me that a $4K complex camera from a big manufacturer could put more effort into the manual. I love the camera. It's a big step up from a DSLR.
