Perfect upgrade to mirrorless if you are already a nikon user. Great features with many improvements on many DSLRs
Nikon say the Z6 is "perhaps the most adaptable camera we’ve ever created", and the combination of features they've packed into this mirrorless camera seems to back up that claim.
Much of the adaptability of any camera comes down to interchangeable lenses, and what they offer across the board. The Z6 is no exception, with a larger Z Mount and shorter flange focal distance allowing the renowned NIKKOR Z lenses to provide incredible sharpness and detail at any aperture, and superb results in low light.
On the Z6, a new customizable menu appears inside the viewfinder, so you can easily adjust settings such as focus modes, white balance, exposure and VR settings, without having to take your eye off the prize shot.
The new hybrid autofocus switches between autofocus modes to fine-tune the clarity of the final shot to an even greater degree. Meanwhile, light-shielding phase detection pixels are arranged to provide more accurate autofocus in dim lighting.
Vibration Reduction (VR) overcomes the "shakes", and the better the VR, the better the shot. VR in the Nikon Z6 is superior to most, and is available in whatever NIKKOR Z lens you choose, while optical and electronic VR combine for steadier video footage.
The Z6 can capture 16:9 4K UHD/30p video in full-frame. In other words, cinema-quality video footage - sharp, clean and alive with colour. You’ll feel like you've been making movies when you see the stunning results.

The Z6 is one of the standout releases of the past year. The Nikon Z7 is quite possibly the best camera on the market right now, but the Z6 comes a very close second for significantly less dosh.
12fps shooting; Excellent viewfinder and screen combo; Great handling
Fairly expensive; Single XQD card slot; Limited system (for now
Arguably the most well considered and capable of any full-frame mirrorless camera on the market. Nikon has got the lens mount right, the quality right and, despite strong competition from Sony's well-established range and Panasonic's forthcoming S1, we think any photographer would be mad to not give...
Great image quality; Huge potential from new Z mount lenses; Adapter for old lenses; Ease of use for existing Nikon users; Fast autofocus/burst mode (12fps; Silent shooting possible; Electronic viewfinder is of great quality and scale; Highly capable autofocus system
Single XQD card slot an odd choice; 24-70mm f/4 lens vignettes a little; DSLR continuous AF still has the edge; Not a full vari-angle screen (tilt only; Better battery life would be great; No EyeAF autofocus; It's rather expensive
There are other options out there, some of which may be more appealing to photographers who don't have a long history with Nikon. Our favorite is the Sony a7 III, which is just a bit more polished all around, and is backed with a larger, more established native lens system.
24MP full-frame sensor; 90 percent autofocus coverage; 12fps Raw continuous shooting; In-body image stabilization; Tilting touch LCD; Big, sharp EVF; Compatible with Nikon SLR accessories; 4K video; Dust and splash resistant; Bluetooth and Wi-Fi
Baked-in Raw adjustments; Oversensitive lens control ring function; Limited native lens selection at launch; Single memory card slot; No PC Sync socket
Order this online with Argos as Amazon had failed to deliver on time. Price was exactly the same as with Amazon. Ordering and collection process went like a dream. The camera itself is simply outstanding. I have used Nikon DSLRs before so knew my way around the camera quite quickly.
This camera, like all other Nikon's, is fantastic. The weight, usability, familiarity, image quality, colour reproduction & speed are incredible. There's not a lot to complain about, but there are some niggles...
Just bought the Z6 package a week ago. Test shoot on various occasions. Compared with my Nikon D810 (no AA filter) + 50mm /f1.8 prime lens and Df (low light hero) + kit 50mm /f1.8 lens. All set at 50mm /f4 and reduced the sizes of D810 and Z6 to match Df. All using tripod and self-timer.
Easy to use; Compact; Build quality; Screen size
Battery life
Keen photographer who already as a D500 (another fantastic camera by the way) The z6 is just amazing and the low light capabilities are just out of this world If you are in to your photography this is a must buy
Really impressed with this camera. Its so much lighter than my DSLRs, making it great for travel and carrying with me. The image quality and high ISO is amazing, and the new z lenses are really sharp! I can also say its one of the best mirrorless video cameras on the market!
Great technology
