The Nikon Z system

THE Z 7 represents an entirely new system for Nikon, with the innovative new Z mount. Although still in its infancy, here are the Z-mount cameras and lenses the system has already. We expect to see this increase further in the coming months and years.

The flagship model, the Z 7 features a 45.7-millionpixel full-frame sensor, a 2.1-million- dot touchscreen, a 493-point autofocusing system and a 3.6-milliondot EVF.

Another option is the Z 6. It uses exactly the same body and design as the Z 7, but features a lower-resolution 24.5- million-pixel sensor. It also has fewer AF points, but comes in at a lower price than its sibling.

NIKKOR Z 24-70mm f/4 S

This classic zoom lens is often sold with the Z 7 or Z 6 as part of a package. It promises sharpness across the frame at every focal length, and uses anti-reflective coatings to prevent ghosting and flare.

NIKKOR Z 35mm f/1.8 S

At the moment, there are two prime ‘ Z’ lenses: 35mm and 50mm. We have used the 35mm f/1.8 lens extensively as part of our original Z 7 review and found it to be a superb performer with extremely sharp results.

NIKKOR Z 50mm f/1.8 S

The newest lens in the range is the 50mm f/1.8 prime lens. All three of the current native lenses are the same shape and size, and are extremely well balanced in use with the Z 7.
