The Nikon Z8 is smashing across Japan like Godzilla right now: Digital Camera World. Any thoughts from you Nikon users.

Jest, sort of.
When a Canon news item is mentioned that is the same basic response by Nikon fanboys.
Or all kinds of excuses etc. posted as put downs to the good news.
So suck it up buttercup.


That’ll show them.

You mean they aren't going out of business now? Do Nikon owners really need a pep rally?

If you don't need the ultra-fast frame rate or video capabilities the Z7 produces identical image quality for stills.


But what about eye tracking? Is that good on the Z7?

Pixelpixie88------- Eye tracking on my Z7II is great as long as it can see the eye .

Thank you, gwilliams, for that interesting info! I would love to upgrade my Z50 to it.
I don't think your post deserved the negative comments, and I find most of your posts to be very interesting and informative!

This is the most sane reply. What is good for Nikon and Canon owners is also good for Sony shooters. Upping the ante so that their next product release has to be a real improvement to stay competitive. Nikon and Canon have so many more users out there with outdated cameras than Sony. It is easier for them to maintain market share because of that. Sony now has pressure to make improvements for their next body that will up the ante again. I for one love watching this competitive environment!

When I eventually purchase my Z8, it will have very little to do with the autofocus system. It will be all about the control layout and operating system.

Why quote a magazine that might have been biased by advertising commitments

Not so. I use a Nikon Z 6II and a Nikon Df and I don’t give a squat about what is popular in Japan.
