Nikon Z 6 II Review

The mirrorless Nikon Z 6 II offers small yet tangible updates to its predecessor, but it doesn't match the improvements in autofocus we've seen from competing systems. A little over two years ago, Nikon jumped out of the gate with its first Z mirrorless cameras, launching the 24MP Z 6 and 45MP Z 7 side by side.

They offer similar upgrades, including a second memory card slot, snappier overall response, and more capable vertical shooting grips as an add-on option.

The Panasonic Lumix DC-S5 or Sony a7 III both bring a bit more for the same price, and remain our Editors' Choice award winners.Body and Handling The Z 6 II looks and feels a lot like its predecessor—there are some changes inside to accommodate an extra memory ca...

Nikon Z6 II Mirrorless Camera Body VOA060AA review

In a rather weird way, the new Nikon Z6 II reminds me of one of the favorite vintage bicycles in my collection. It’s not as fast as my racing bike, nor as bombproof as my mountain bike. And it doesn’t accommodate the full range of racks and luggage as the bike I use for loaded touring.

Nikon Z6 II review

As crowded as the mirrorless market is today, the Nikon Z6 II still holds its own and stands out as one of the best all-around cameras available. It wouldn’t be our first choice for wildlife and action photography, but it’s capable enough that you can still get great wildlife shots with it if you...

Nikon Z6 II review

The Nikon Z 6II is great for sports and wildlife photography. It has an excellent shooting speed that makes it well-suited to capturing fast-moving people or wildlife, though it doesn't have the largest image buffer.
