NIKON ANNOUNCES THE Z 7II AND Z 6I NEXT-GENERATION FULL-FRAME MIRRORLESS CAMERAS

WWA: 14th October 2020
Sales Start: Winter 2020

RRPs:

Nikon Z 7II - from £2,999.00
Nikon Z 6II - from £1,999.00
MB-N11 - £359.00
WR-R11b - £149.00

London, United Kingdom, 14 October 2020: Nikon today announces the Nikon Z 7II and Nikon Z 6II - next-generation versions of its flagship Z 7 and Z 6 mirrorless cameras.

The full-frame Z 7II and Z 6II are designed around the ultra-wide Z mount and ever-expanding range of NIKKOR Z lenses. Both models benefit from; dual EXPEED 6 processing engines, faster and deeper buffers - supporting rapid continuous shooting, and dual card slots - catering for UHS-II SD and XQD or CFexpress cards. The cameras are also equipped with 4K/60p video capabilities[1]. They can accommodate an optional new power battery pack - the MB-N11 - that supports vertical shooting, as well as the new WR-R11b wireless remote.

The Z 7II is the next evolution of the award winning Z 7, boasting superior subject acquisition, high-resolution and robust reliability. With greater dynamic range and performance across the wide ISO range, its processing power and buffer capacity enable shooting speeds up to 10 fps. Photographers can now capture 200 full-res JPEGs, or 77 12-bit uncompressed RAW images, in one burst.

The Z 7II's enhanced AF capabilities offer wide-area AF support for human and animal subjects, subject-tracking AF that operates similar to 3D-tracking, and improved AF in low-light situations. And the 3690k-dot electronic viewfinder (EVF) delivers a more natural view, with the high refresh rate reducing blackout.

The camera is suited to advanced and professional photographers demanding unparalleled expression of subject details. That could be a portrait photographer shooting at speed to capture textures in skin, hair, clothing and make up; or a landscape photographer requiring robust, lightweight equipment to travel harsh environments and capture scenes of nature.

The Z 6II builds upon the Z 6's success. It offers robustness and ease of use, the ability to produce professional-grade cinematic videos, and powerful performance when capturing still moments. The camera's 'dust and drip' resistance supports continuous shooting in harsh conditions, while a new ability to reverse rotate the focus ring lets users manually focus with the direction they are accustomed to.

Regarding video capabilities, the camera can deliver an output of 4K UHD and Full HD in both FX and DX-based movie formats. Its HLG shooting formats, meanwhile, preserve more detail, dynamic range and contrast - minimising post processing requirements[2]. Improved Eye-Detection and Animal-Detection AF results in enhanced focus of subjects during video shooting.

These AF capabilities support superior still photography too, working alongside the camera's improved speed and power. The Z 6II supports a continuous shooting speed of 14 fps[3] and an increased maximum number of shots in continuous shooting; 200 JPEGs or 124 12-bit uncompressed RAW images in one burst.

The Z 6II is suited to users wanting to shoot cinematic videos in addition to stills with a compact system. It is the camera for professional video production or, for example, wedding photography where manoeuvrability, flexibility and uncompromised output quality are key.

The Nikon Z Mount System

Both cameras leverage the Nikon Z mount system to ensure that light reaches the entire sensor, including the extreme corners. When combined with the expanding NIKKOR Z lens line-up - or the 300+ compatible F-mount NIKKOR lenses via the FTZ Mount Adapter - they push Nikon's tradition of optical excellence and innovation to unprecedented new heights.

Accessories

The MB-N11 power battery pack boasts a shutter-release button and controls for vertical shooting. It also features a USB-C port allowing the charge of two batteries consecutively when disconnected from the camera.

The WR-R11b wireless remote enables wireless control of the camera's shutter release and can synchronise the shutter release of multiple cameras linked to the 'master' camera. The WR-R11b is compatible with specific Nikon cameras and this remote transceiver can also be used to control external flashes - such as the SB-5000 Speedlight - in advanced wireless lighting setups. The WR-R11b is also compatible with the WR-1 remote, a professional-grade controller with long-range capabilities.

  • A viewfinder that keeps up: The high-definition 3690k-dot electronic viewfinder (EVF) boasts a high refresh rate that greatly reduces blackout even when shooting at high speed.
  • Displays that adapt to you: Customizable info displays let you quickly adjust settings, or you can choose to disable the info display completely when shooting stills. The EVF automatically turns off if you flip out the monitor to shoot in Live View.
  • Tough doesn't begin to describe it: Rough terrain, harsh weather conditions or on-set fog machines-the fully-sealed Z 7II doesn't flinch.
