Description
A system born from an unending quest for perfection.
A system that opens a new dimension of possibilities. A system inspired by the past but designed for tomorrow. A system only Nikon could create.
Feel & Handling
A mirrorless camera that feels like a Nikon
Decades of refining camera design, at your fingertips.
Proven form factor
Inspired by D850, Z series cameras embody the elegance, durability, handling and operation of award-winning Nikon DSLRs—just in a smaller package.
A mirrorless you can hold
A large, deep grip for balanced handling, even when using large telephoto F-Mount Nikkor lenses. Comfortable ergonomics, thoughtful button placement and an easy to use GUI.
The Nikkor legacy continues
The front line of the imaging revolution
Meet the first in a new generation of Nikkor lenses. Designed around the new larger Z Mount and beautifully matched to Z series cameras, Nikkor Z lenses embody the ultimate in image quality with near-silent operation—all in a smaller, lighter package.
The lenses you love, enhanced by Z
With the optional Mount Adapter FTZ, Z series cameras are fully compatible with over 90 F-Mount Nikkor lenses, which retain all their sharpness, rendering power and functionality. Plus, they gain so much—smooth, fast Hybrid-AF*, silent shooting, in-camera VR and more. In total, approximately 360 F-Mount Nikkor lenses can be used.
$100 Instant Savings on one (1) Mount Adapter FTZ when purchased together with Z6 or Z7 camera.
*Full AF/AE supported when using FX or DX AF-S Type G/D/E, AF-P type G/E, AF-I type D and AF-S / AF-I Teleconverters
Innovation
The most advanced imaging system available
The technology may be all new, but the ingenuity is all Nikon.
Full Frame brilliance
At the heart of Z series cameras are FX-format image sensors designed by Nikon to make full use of the extra light provided by the large Z Mount.
Brains and beauty
EXPEED 6, the most advanced Nikon image processing yet, powers breathtaking image quality, liberating low-light performance and versatile video capabilities.
Rock-steady with any lens
A 5-axis optical VR system is built right into Z series cameras for up to 5 stops* of image stabilization when using Nikkor Z lenses and up to 3-axis VR when using F-Mount Nikkor lenses**. Additional electronic VR (e-VR) can be combined during video capture.
*Based on CIPA Standards. This value is achieved when the Nikkor Z 24-70mm f/4 S lens is attached, with zoom set at the maximum telephoto position. **Full AF/AE supported when using FX or DX AF-S Type G/D/E, AF-P type G/E, AF-I type D and AF-S / AF-I Teleconverters
Golden silence
Mirrorless design, on-sensor PDAF and whisper-quiet lenses let you shoot with complete stealth. Capture special moments without interrupting them.
Powerfully cinematic
The video advantages of mirrorless design—fast, accurate on-sensor Phase Detection Auto Focus (PDAF), in-camera VR and a brilliant Electronic Viewfinder—plus the most robust 4K UHD video feature set on any Nikon camera yet.
Shown with optional ME-1 Microphone and third-party Camera Rig.
Let there be more light
New Z Mount – 17% Wider with 65% slimmer flange*
The largest full-frame mount on any camera system. At 55mm, it’s the largest full-frame mount on any camera system**, allowing more of everything: more light capture, more data sharing between lens and camera and more image quality performance.
And By seemingly breaking the laws of optics with just 16mm of flange distance, Nikon can now deliver smaller and lighter cameras and lens designs impossible in any other mirrorless system.

Composing and Recording
Pure Viewing Experience
Absolutely stunning 3.6M-dot electronic viewfinder designed with Nikon optics for a crystal clear view and a comfortable, intuitive shooting experience. Includes a custom in-screen menu, minimal blackout during fast-shooting, and it can be used during video recording.
3.2-inch Tilting Touchscreen
Compose with crystal clarity on a large, 2.1M dot display that tilts for easier high and low shots. Touch to focus and fire the shutter. Navigate menus, playback and more as if you were using a smartphone.
OLED Dot-Matrix Panel
Review key camera settings from the top of the camera on a low-power OLED screen, just like high-end Nikon DSLRs.
The need for speed
Fast continuous shooting
Shoot up to 12 FPS with Z6 and 9 FPS with Z 7 at full resolution in 12-bit RAW or JPEG without the need for an external battery pack.
Faster lens-to-camera communication
The Z Mount allows higher-speed, larger-volume communication between the lens and camera body for dramatic gains in AF adjustments and image processing—for today and the even faster cameras of tomorrow.
Well connected
Built-in Wi-Fi® and Bluetooth Low Energy
Z series cameras easily connect using Nikon SnapBridge* to compatible smart devices for remote shooting and transferring JPEG photos on the go.
*Download required
Wire-free to your Mac or PC
Connect to a Mac or PC using Z series cameras’ built-in Wi-Fi for monitoring and transferring JPEG, RAW or video.
Our vision has always been to create cameras and lenses that capture more light. More light means more detail. More speed. More possibilities. The Z 7 brings that vision to life (and then some). Combining the advantages of a lightweight mirrorless design, a revolutionary new full-frame lens mount and matched lenses, a Nikon designed 45.7MP image sensor and seamless integration with Nikon’s DSLR system including the NIKKOR lenses you love the Z 7 is a camera unlike any before it. And yet, it’s unmistakably a Nikon. This is mirrorless reinvented.
