Frequently asked questions

The Nikon Z 6II is a full-frame mirrorless camera designed for both still photography and video recording. It features a 24.5MP BSI CMOS sensor, dual EXPEED 6 image processors, and comes with a versatile 24-70mm f/4 Z-mount lens. Key features include 4K video recording, up to 14fps continuous shooting, dual memory card slots, and improved autofocus performance with eye-detection AF for both humans and animals. The camera is also known for its robust build and weather-sealing, making it suitable for a variety of shooting environments.

Yes, the Nikon Z 6II is well-suited for professional video production. It offers 4K UHD video recording up to 30p and Full HD up to 120p for slow-motion effects. The camera also supports 10-bit N-Log and HLG (Hybrid Log-Gamma) for better color grading and HDR output, respectively. Additionally, the Nikon Z 6II can output a 12-bit ProRes RAW or Blackmagic RAW signal via its HDMI port when used with compatible external recorders, providing even greater flexibility in post-production workflows.

The 24-70mm f/4 lens bundled with the Nikon Z 6II is a versatile lens that performs well in a variety of lighting conditions, including low light. While f/4 is not as fast as some prime lenses, the high ISO performance of the Z 6II's full-frame sensor compensates for this, allowing for excellent image quality in low-light situations. Additionally, the lens’s optical stabilization works in conjunction with the camera’s in-body stabilization to significantly reduce camera shake, further enhancing low-light performance.

The Nikon Z 6II features dual memory card slots that support CFexpress (Type B) and UHS-II SD cards. This dual-slot configuration allows for flexible file management; for example, you can set the camera to record JPEGs to one card and RAW files to the other, or use the second card for overflow or backup. The support for CFexpress cards also ensures high-speed data transfer, which is particularly beneficial for continuous shooting and recording high-resolution video.

It's particularly suitable for users looking for a versatile workhorse camera that performs well in various lighting conditions, offers great ergonomics, and supports modern connectivity options.

  • Expensive but worth it.
Style: Camera + 24-70mm f/4 Lens Set: w/ Lens
I originally bought the GH5 and that camera is a ridiculously good workhorse. However, I shoot predominately consumer electronics, which means I shoot a lot of screens. The GH5, for all its greatness, doesn't have an anti-aliasing filter and that caused all kinds of ridiculous moire. So I sold it, did some research, and landed on the Nikon Z6 II. Super glad I did. For the record, I upgraded originally from the Nikon D5200, which I used with my trusty Sigma 17-50mm lens for many years. I used the GH5 for a month before I got this camera, which I've now had for about a week. Pros 1. Good, sharp photos (obviously lens dependent). I did most of my testing with the included Nikon 24-70mm F/4 and my old Sigma 17-50mm F/2.8 with the FTZ adapter. You can find way better photos by much better photographers on pro reviews or other Amazon reviews, but rest assured those reviewers are right. This camera takes excellent photos. 2. The auto-focus features are a bit outside of my wheelhouse (my subjects rarely move while I shoot them), but I did mess around a little bit. I don't know how it compares to its contemporaries, but it beats my old Nikon D5200 by margins I can't possibly overstate. 3. 4k60fps recording works perfectly. Mine came in the box with the software update already installed so I assume yours will too. I didn't have to do anything other than turn it on in the settings. Even with the crop, it's smooth, sharp, and easy to work with. 4. I've always liked Nikon's menu system. It's simple, easy, and effective. Coming from a previous Nikon, the menu is larger, with controls for modern features, but it's more or less the same layout as previous cameras, so it's familiar. 5. The ability to charge the battery in camera via USB-C is awesome. The ability to power the camera with one is even cooler. 6. I also like that I can connect the camera in a bunch of different ways (wifi, bluetooth, usb-c). Compared to old cameras, it's a massive difference. 7. The ability to have a clean HDMI-out and the ability to turn off sleep mode makes this a great webcam for streaming or similar use cases. Neutral 1. I appreciate that there are two card slots, but I'm not too keen on buying a new card type and a new adapter for my computer. Cons 1. Nikon is intentionally vague about the USB-C power stuff. They want you to buy a $60 wall charger with a USB-C end. However, you basically just need a 15W power brick with USB Power Delivery (USB PD) and it'll get the job done, and you can find those on Amazon for vastly less money. 2. Having the play and delete buttons on the left side makes the camera difficult to use one-handed. Not the biggest deal, but ergonomics matter. Finally, a word about OLPF or an "anti-aliasing filter". This is an electronic component that, to over-simplify, knocks things ever so slightly out of focus to help avoid moire. It's a technology that does work wonders, especially if you shoot a lot of video or photo of things with screens, like smartphones, computer screens, etc. The Nikon Z6 II has one (the Z7 II does not). If you're here and you're considering a career in tech vlogging/journalism, I would put this toward the top of your "maybe" list for that reason alone. Sharp photos and video with the filter is a difficult combo to find. Overall, this camera is bonkers good. When I asked about it on Reddit, someone there challenged me to find a negative review. Turns out, negative reviews of this camera are exceedingly rare. It does well in low light, regular light, and intense light. The controls are good, the ergonomics are mostly good, the video capture is great, and it's just an all-around powerful workhorse camera. I also tried the kit lens. It's nice and sharp, and I actually like the part where the barrel compacts and locks for travel. I'll likely use it most of the time since it's a tad sharper than my Sigma, but if the lighting gets difficult, I have no problem switching back to the f/2.8. The kit lens is really good, and getting it at a $400 discount with the bundle is a smart idea unless you already have an outstanding zoom lens, in which case getting a second is redundant. Finally, a recommendation. If you buy this camera, at MINIMUM, you should consider getting the combo with the FTZ adapter. That gives you access to many older Nikon F-Mount lenses, since the Z-Mount is still kind of new. Buying the adapter separate costs $250, but Nikon reduces the price to $99 if you buy it when you buy a Z-mount camera (Z50, Z5, Z6, Z7, Z6 II, Z7 II, etc). The deal is available straight from Nikon, here on Amazon, or virtually anywhere else you can buy the camera. It functionally triples the number of lenses you can buy (including some really decent cheaper options, like the Sigma 17-50mm f/2.8). Anyway, this camera is fantastic. Most of the other reviews touch on the kit lens and camera image/video quality, so I wanted to focus mine on some of the technicals and niche stuff. This camera is excellent. I'm happy to have it. ... show more

  • All that I Wanted - The Z6ii
Style: Camera Body Only Set: Body Only
Been using it for a few months now, and I am so pleased with the Z6ii. I know folks dog the AF system, but coming from a D3300, it’s lightyears ahead. This is a camera you learn to use but also adapt to yourself. Between integral settings like Active D-lighting, Dynamic AF, Subject Tracking, exposure lock, manual focus peaking, view finder zoom, Eye-AF, button mapping, and user control groups, I’ve gotten my Z6ii to a point where I can do just about anything I want on it with quick finger movements, minimal futzing, and my eye almost never leaving the viewfinder if I so desired. And all of this, in a comfortable, responsive, and lightweight form factor. Time will tell how durable it is, but as it stands, I’ve not had a single issue with it so far. What’s interesting, is the camera is so easy to navigate the menus with, that I no longer do much editing on the computer anymore, it’s surprisingly quick to NEF process on the camera and then send to my iPhone for sharing. I only use Lightroom, NX Studio, or Photoshop for library management and special projects. Plus, I like the true-to-life look straight out of the camera, I rarely need to alter stuff anyways. I started on that D3300 and fell in love with the colors, Nikkor glass, image quality, and flexibility of NEF files. With the Z6ii, I got all of that, and more capability/reliability. You could go get something else from Sony or Canon with wicked fancy and reliable AF features, and no one would fault you. If I had to pick a camera strictly for that, I would pick one from their lineups too. But the point is, a camera is more than just one feature or spec, and in any case, it’s how ya use it given it’s strengths and limitations. Whatever you end up deciding, I hope you enjoy the ride and opportunity. I know I have. PS: get an extra battery or two, the S Line 35mm f/1.8 is amazing, and read the manual and Nikon shooting guides (they actually have lots of really insightful hints and tips). ... show more

  • A very high quality camera with excellent performance and handling
Style: Camera Body Only Set: Body Only
I owned the Z6 and Z6 and actually rather liked them. The Z6 II is a nice upgrade. It is a well built very nice handling camera that makes you want to take pictures. Paired with Z f/4 24 to 70 lens it is an excellent camera being easy to handle and relatively compact. This camera produces excellent out of camera jpgs and, with the improved autofocus, it is easy to get tac sharp pictures. I went for the Z6 II rather than the Z7 II since I already had a camera that provided high resolution photographs and I wanted an easy to use, high quality camera. Pros: 1. High quality weather proofed camera body that handles well. 2. Excellent out of camera jpgs. 3. 2 card slots (a nice improvement over the Z6/Z7. 4. Excellent quality Z lenses which are high quality. 5. Easy access to most features via a touch screen with well designed menus. 6. Good low light performance. Cons: 1. Focus tracking is a little tricky at times and it loses the subject more easily than my other cameras. 2. No 70 to 200mm f/4 Z lens. (This is my biggest issue, there is a variable aperture non S series Z lens 24 to 240 mm but this does not match the quality of the S series 24 to 70 mm f/4 lens) (S lenses are the highest quality equivalent to the L series from Canon). 3. Concern about the long term viability of Nikon (I am sure they will survive but in what form, they seem to be contracting). Overall I love this camera but that missing Z mount S series 70 to 200mm f/4 is a problem for me (I go for the f/4 lenses and not the f/2.8 lenses due to cost and size). ... show more

Love the price, weight and output of images. Super excited to see how the video recording will turn out. A great purchase for a lower-end model.
