The Nikon Z f is a full-frame mirrorless camera whose looks are based on the legendary Nikon FM2 film camera. The classic body with mechanical dials houses a 24.5 MP FX sensor, the EXPEED 7 processor, 5-axis in-body image stabilisation and 4K UHD video oversampled from 6K. A dedicated switch takes the camera into monochrome mode in a single move.

A dedicated switch takes the camera into monochrome mode in a single move.
The exterior of the Z f is based on Nikon’s historic FM2 film camera. On top are mechanical dials for ISO sensitivity, shutter speed and exposure compensation with well-defined clicks, so you can see and change the key settings without entering the menu. A small control panel shows the aperture.
A dedicated switch below the shutter speed dial puts the camera into monochrome mode for both stills and video. It offers the new Flat Monochrome Picture Control with soft tonal gradations and Deep Tone Monochrome with more dramatic contrast, alongside the classic Monochrome preset.
The Z f records 10-bit H.265 video in camera, 4K UHD oversampled from 6K, and 4K UHD up to 60p or Full HD up to 120p. A single clip can run up to 125 minutes. N-Log and HDR (HLG), timecode and waveform display are available. The 8 cm (3.2″) vari-angle touchscreen suits low-angle shooting as well as filming yourself.
The 24.5 MP full-frame sensor with the EXPEED 7 processor delivers subject-detection autofocus (people, animals, birds, vehicles, aircraft) working down to −10 EV, high ISO 100–64,000 sensitivity and 5-axis sensor-shift image stabilisation rated up to 8 stops. The camera focuses on eyes even when hair covers the face or the subject wears glasses.
Pixel shift combines several RAW frames into one high-resolution file (in the free NX Studio software). For portraits, Portrait Impression Balance, Skin Softening and the Rich Tone Portrait Picture Control are available.
The slim body has an SD card slot (UHS-II) and a microSD slot (UHS-I) – the second card can be used for backup, for separate RAW and JPEG storage or for overflow. There is also a USB-C port with power delivery, a Type D HDMI connector, microphone input, headphone output, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.
The Nikon Z f is a modern mirrorless camera with an iconic design that uses the Nikon Z mount and is powered by high-capacity EN-EL15c batteries. Accessories that enhance the camera’s ergonomic grip and ensure sufficient power for demanding 6K recording are particularly essential for this model.
