What do you get if you cross the much-loved D850 DSLR with Nikon's top-of-the-line flagship mirrorless Z 9? Read on and find out!
Nikon Z 8

Rumours of a Nikon Z 8 mirrorless camera, that fits in the range somewhere between the Z 7II and Z 9, have been doing the rounds for years. In fact, we were hearing whispers about it even before the Z 9 saw the light of day. And now it’s finally here. Nikon is touting the camera both as the ‘true successor to the D850’ and a ‘baby Z 9’. And indeed, it looks and feels like the Z-series equivalent of the D850, with a similar form factor, yet squeezes virtually all the high-end specs of the flagship Z 9 into a smaller (and more affordable) body.

Key features 

So let’s kick off with those headline specs that it shares with its bigger brother. It has the same 45.7-megapixel stacked CMOS sensor, which boasts the fastest scan rate of any commercially available camera. So while this isn’t a ‘global’ sensor that captures the entire image instantaneously but renders the image line-by-line in the same way as traditional sensors, it does this incredibly quickly. So quickly, in fact, that the camera forgoes the need for a mechanical shutter entirely.
