DPReview selects the Nikon Z8 product of the year
Nikon Z8 camera of the year at DPReview.com
DPReview today announced their product of the year: the Nikon Z8!
From DPReview:
“The Nikon Z8 is our product of the year for exactly the same reason it's our High-End Camera of the year: it brings the same capabilities that Nikon delivers to its pro audience in a camera that dedicated enthusiasts might be able to get hold of. It's slightly smaller than Nikon's DSLR standard bearer, the D850, while outperforming it in almost every way. Cameras continue to evolve, and we suspect more affordable cameras will start to challenge the likes of the Z8 in terms of autofocus or speed or video capabilities, but as things stand, there are very few cameras that have ever offered the all-around strength that the Z8 exhibits.”
I can certainly attest to what DPReview is saying and will have more to report when I release my Z8 review.
Let me know in the comments below what your thoughts are on DPReview’s choice of camera of the year.
Changed the default values for the following settings displayed when connecting wirelessly:
- Encryption keys
- The password displayed after the camera's default settings are restored
• Fixed the following issues:
- Green color casting occurred with some pictures taken.
- The date and time set in camera sometimes would not be correctly applied.
- Using [Picture review] to view an image in a “tall” (portrait) orientation and zooming in the image prevented the display from being scrolled to the intended direction with multi selector or sub-selector.
- After a firmware update, the eye sensor sometimes would not function and the viewfinder would not turn on.
- The “i” menu would sometimes remain in the viewfinder when it was looked through after the shutter-release button was pressed halfway to exit the “i” menu viewed in the monitor.
