Nikon Z 8 films in 8K RAW - smaller and cheaper than Z 9

Nikon Z 8 films in 8K RAW - smaller and cheaper than Z 9

[14:00 Wed,10.May 2023   by ]    

Nikon has just presented the mirrorless full-frame camera Z 8, which not only closes the numerical gap between the Z 6 / Z 7 and the flagship Z 9. It also sits in between in terms of size and basically comes along like a smaller Z 9, with uncut video capabilities. As a more compact - and less expensive - 8K RAW camera, it should score points with the film community. Nikon is also touting it as the unofficial successor to the D850.

The same stacked 45.7 MP CMOS sensor and EXPEED 7 processor from the Z 9 are used, and the sensor stabilization (IBIS) has been transferred to the smaller body. It measures approximately 144 x 118 x 83 mm (for the Z 9 it is 149.5 x 149 x 90.5 mm). The weight is 910g.



The native film resolution of the Z 8 is also 8.3K. Filming can be done internally with either the professional Apple ProRes RAW HQ codec (up to 4.1k 60p) or Nikon&s highly efficient N-RAW codec (up to 8.3k/60p), whose memory requirements are only half as large in comparison. In-camera Full HD proxy files are created for internal 8.3K N-RAW or 4.1K ProRes RAW HQ recordings. Of course, H.264/H.265 recording is also supported, as well as 10-bit HLG. In 4K, frame rates range up to 120p, and continuous shooting can also be created at 120 frames per second in photo mode.

Compared to the z 9, the Ethernet port and sync terminal are omitted. For multicam scenarios, the Z 9 will probably remain the camera of choice. Since it also uses a smaller battery (the EN-EL15c as in the Z6/Z7), you won&t get as far on one charge. On the other hand, the Z 8 is Nikon&s first mirrorless camera to feature two USB-C ports, which allow for fast and reliable file transfer while charging (USB LAN). There is also a dual memory card slot, though not for 2 CF Express cards but one CFexpress and one SD- memory card each.

The Deep Learning AF is said to provide precision detection and tracking for people, dogs, cats, birds, cars, motorcycles, bicycles, trains and planes at up to -9 EV. There are separate menu interfaces for movie and photo; when shooting vertically, the menus are rotated. Thanks to high-performance weather protection, it is said to have the same cold tolerance as the Nikon D6 and Z 9 (working temperatures down to -10 °C).

The Nikon Z 8 is expected to go on sale at the end of May for €4,599 (body only) or €5,549 (Nikon Z 8 Kit Z 24-120 mm f/4 S). An optional MB-N12 multi-function handgrip compatible with the Z 8, which holds two EN-EL15c batteries, is expected to cost 388 euros.
