Nikon realizes that their current crop of ambassadors are too old to resonate with younger photographers, their new target market, so they retain young “Nikon Creator partners” to solve the problem
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.

Women’s Beach volleyball: A review of the NIKKOR Z 135mm f/1.8 S Plena, a 135mm prime unlike any before it. Astonishing edge-to-edge clarity. Dreamlike circular bokeh. A focal length treasured for portraits, still life, cinema and landscapes. All with superlative craftsmanship and performance optimized for wide-open shots. Plentiful. Abundant. Extraordinary. This is what Plena means.
Five of Nikon’s engineers have shared insight into how the Z8 came to be, including the decision-making process and thoughts about what they needed to achieve. The stories were printed in full with no editing whatsoever, were shared by Nikon Australia with Inside Imaging.
DPReview today announced their product of the year: the Nikon Z8!
”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.”
