Nikon’s first full frame mirrorless camera line, the Nikon Z, is now in the Philippines. The Nikon Z 7 and Z 6 carries the DNA of Nikon DSLR’s – crisp images, great camera grip, dependable optical/electronic viewfinders, an intuitive menu; and button, dial, and lever placements that make sense. Both Z 7 and Z 6 feature backside illumination, the Nikon FX-format CMOS sensor (with focal-plane phase-detection AF pixels), and the EXPEED 6 image-processing engine. The Nikon Z line up approaches mirrorless cameras in its own way but still caters to the needs of pros and enthusiasts. Both the Z 7 and Z 6 are now available for cash-basis-only pre-order. See product specs, features overview video, and prices below.
