SECOND-HAND CLASSIC Nikon Z 7

It’s hard to call the Nikon Z 7 a ‘classic’ just over four years after its launch, but there’s no denying it makes a very tempting second-hand purchase. Behind its Z-mount is a superb 45.7MP BSI CMOS sensor offering a broad ISO 32-102,400 range, with burst shooting up to 9fps. It boasts 493 phase-detection AF points covering 90% of the frame, face detection, and 5-axis in-body stabilisation. Built with a weather-sealed body, it employs a 3.6m-dot EVF above a 3.2in touchscreen and has one of the most comfortable handgrips of any mirrorless camera.
