Nikon Z6 review: The best full-frame mirrorless camera for video

 

After launching the high-resolution, expensive Z7, Nikon has unveiled the much more affordable Z6. It's the best full-frame mirrorless camera on the market for video, offering a full-frame, full-pixel sensor readout for super crisp 4K video. You can...

Best full-frame mirrorless camera for video ; In-body stabilization ; Good ergonomics ; Excellent images and color science ; Relatively affordable compared to Z7

Mediocre autofocus subject tracking ; Single card slot uses hard-to-find XQD format ; Touch display doesn’t flip around

With the Z6, Nikon set out to beat Sony at its own mirrorless game. While it didn't quite succeed at that, it's still an impressive debut. The A7 III does have better autofocus performance and also edges the Z6 in image quality, especially in low-light...

Nikon Z6 Review

 

The Nikon Z6 may not offer the incredible resolution of its sibling, the Z7, but its excellent video quality and faster performance make it an impressive camera at a considerably lower price.

Nikon Z6 Review

 

It’s easy to see why Nikon held back the sale of the Z 6, putting the Z7 into the market a little earlier. For a large swathe of customers, the Z6 makes a lot more sense as a purchase – especially enthusiasts who are keen to save some cash.

Nikon Z6 Review

 

The Nikon Z6 is a terrific, well-rounded full-frame mirrorless camera. Basically, there isn't a lot to complain about when it comes to the Z6.

Great image quality; Terrific high ISO performance; Fast AF speeds; Eye AF; Swift 12fps burst shooting; In-body image stabilization; High-quality 4K video; Robust build quality; Familiar Nikon design.

Single XQD card slot; Default high ISO NR a bit strong; No 4K 60p; 1/200s x-sync speed; Limited native lens selection (at this time).

The Nikon Z6 is a terrific, well-rounded full-frame mirrorless camera. Basically, there isn't a lot to complain about when it comes to the Z6. The body is compact and robust yet features lots of physical controls and a familiar Nikon design. With...
