Nikon Z7 II + TAMRON 28-75mm

By buying NIKON Z7 II you will get improved processing, greater versatility, but familiar in design, the NIKON Z 7II takes everything that was great about the original and further increases its capabilities. With a 45.7MP high-resolution FX-format BSI CMOS sensor and dual EXPEED 6 image processors, the NIKON Z7 II camera is clearly aimed at the detail-obsessed imager.

The NIKON Z7 II camera's sensor design omits the optical low-pass filter for greater detail recording capability and the sensor supports a native sensitivity range of up to ISO 64 for rich, lush capture. The updated processing also produces faster speeds, including an accelerated 10fps continuous shooting speed and a deeper buffer for working with moving subjects. When you buy NIKON Z7 II you can capture UHD 4K video 60p is also supported, with the option to record externally in 10-bit using N-Log or HLG (HDR) modes). The sensor also incorporates a 493-point phase-detection AF system, which now supports eye-detection AF in wide-area AF modes and during movie recording, and allows focusing in low-light conditions down to -4.5 EV. In addition, 5-axis in-body vibration reduction helps reduce the appearance of camera shake with any lens mounted.

Balancing the images, the NIKON Z7 II camera retains its overall physical design, however, it has been updated with a new dual memory card slot interface to hold a CFexpress Type B card and a UHS-II SD card for more flexible storage. Both the high-resolution 3.6-million-dot OLED EVF and the 3.2" 2.1-million-dot rear tilting touchscreen LCD bring versatility to image composition and playback, and SnapBridge wireless connectivity can be used for remote camera control, image sharing with a mobile device, even over-the-air firmware updates.

• 45.7 MP FX-format BSI CMOS sensor and dual EXPEED 6 processors

A 45.7 MP BSI CMOS sensor is used for high-resolution shooting, stunning low-light quality, and fast readout speeds to benefit continuous shooting, movies, and time-lapse recording. The sensor's back-illuminated design offers remarkably clean high-sensitivity output and reduced noise when working at high ISO values, up to a native ISO 25600, as well as vivid and smooth quality at sensitivities as low as ISO 64. The sensor design of the NIKON Z7 II camera also omits the conventional optical low-pass filter to achieve the highest sharpness and resolution of the sensor. The sensor benefits from dual EXPEED 6 image processors, which deliver great speed throughout the camera system, including the ability to shoot continuously at 10fps for up to 50 consecutive frames.

• UHD 4K video recording

Using sensor and processor attributes for more than just still images, the Z 7II is also a more than capable multimedia camera. UHD 4K video recording is possible up to 60p and Full HD 1080p video recording is also supported up to 120p for slow-motion playback. Video files can be saved to the camera's memory cards or as an uncompressed file on an optional external recorder via HDMI output.

Advanced video capabilities have been added with the Z 7II, including the N-Log range to capture flat-looking images that maximize dynamic range and HLG (HDR) to record HDR-ready images. When buying NIKON Z7 II  you also receive other additions are the ability to generate high-quality 10-bit data via HDMI and an electronic VR function for smooth manual capture. Focus Peaking can be used to benefit manual focus control and a Zebra Stripes option is also available to help detect overexposed areas within the frame. Audio recording can be handled using the built-in stereo microphone or an optional external microphone can be added via the 3.5mm stereo jack for greater control over quality, and live monitoring is possible via the headphone jack.

• 493-point phase-detection AF system

Located on the sensor is an array of 493 phase-detection autofocus points that cover 90% of the image area both vertically and horizontally. This provides fast and accurate focusing for both stills and video and with a wide coverage area, subject tracking will work all the way to near the edges of the frame. The NIKON Z7 II camera's hybrid AF is available for video, which will automatically switch between phase detection and contrast detection systems to provide smooth focusing during shooting. In addition, the latest NIKKOR Z lenses are optimized for quiet operation.
