Nikon Z 6 £2,099/$1,997 body only

www.nikon.com

We’ve already reviewed the amazing Nikon Z 7 (in Digital Camera 208), with its high-resolution 45.7MP sensor, sophisticated phase-detection autofocus, high-speed continuous shooting and 4K video, but we’ve also been itching to get our hands on the much cheaper and more enthusiast-orientated Nikon Z 6.

This camera offers a lower 24.5-megapixel resolution and not quite as many AF points as the Z 7, but it’s less than two thirds the price, offers a wider ISO range, full-frame (no crop) 4K video and an even faster 12fps frame rate.

The Nikon Z cameras use a new lens mount, but Nikon is also selling an FTZ mount adaptor that lets you use any existing current Nikon lens without restriction. It currently adds around £100/$150 to the cost of the camera when you buy it as a kit.
