About the Nikon Z 8 Camera w/ 24-120 Lens

Nikon Z 8

This is everything you want in a full-frame hybrid camera. Image quality, precision, flexibility—and a compact, lightweight body. Video to stills. Commissions to passion projects. Don’t just create. Thrive.

Compact body. Flagship performance.

The Z 8 brings the feature set of the Z 9 to a body that is 30% smaller than the Z 9 and 15% smaller than the D850. The 45 MP stacked CMOS sensor and impressive dynamic range. The phenomenal deep-learning AF system, and a subject- and eye-detection hit rate you can rely on. The blackout-free Real-Live Viewfinder and 4-axis tilting monitor. Video, stills, or both. You have the freedom to innovate while the Z 8 reliably nails every frame.

Astounding agility for video and stills

New ideas, tight budgets, fast turnarounds. Small setup or a full rig. However and wherever you create, the Z 8’s flexibility will keep your projects flowing. Record stunning 8K or 4K video straight out of the camera at an array of frame rates, including slow motion. Capture exquisite 45.7 MP stills even if shooting by starlight. There are separate display interfaces for video and stills, and menus rotate if shooting vertically.

Blazing fast 120 fps for stills

Never miss the decisive moment. You can shoot 11 MP stills at an insanely fast 120 fps, or 45.7 MP stills at an action-freezing 60 fps or 30 fps. All with full AF and AE performance and no viewfinder blackout.

More control over portraits

Save time in post by making adjustments as you shoot. Portrait Impression Balance lets you fine-tune hue and brightness. Skin Softening softens the look of skin while keeping eyes and hair sharp.

Pre-release capture

Photographing events? The Z 8 gives your reaction time a boost by recording for up to a second before you take a shot.1 Fleeting gestures, unpredictable subjects: you’ll nail the moments you might have missed.

Embrace backlight. Love the dark.

Night scenes and backlit portraits? You can trust the Z 8’s intelligent AF system. Faces are in focus even if the scene is strongly backlit. Subject detection and AF work down to ˗9 EV in Starlight mode.

Hi-res 2x zoom for 4K video

Zoom with prime lenses while filming! The Z 8 can emulate a 2x optical zoom, in camera and in real time. There’s no image degradation, and you can program three different zoom speeds

A system to match your vision

The full-frame Z 8 is a creative powerhouse, and its flexibility doesn’t end with the camera. There’s a NIKKOR Z lens for every idea and budget, while the FTZ mount adapter lets you use DSLR lenses too. Dedicated accessories expand what you can do.

NIKKOR Z 24-120mm f/4 S

Going somewhere? With a lightweight build, advanced optics, and a broad zoom range, the NIKKOR Z 24-120mm f/4 S makes a superb walkaround travel lens. From impromptu trips to long-planned photo-finding expeditions—comfortably extend your range for stills and movies.

One lens, so many possibilities

Different destinations. Fresh inspirations. With its broad reach, this lightweight S-line zoom lens delivers versatility and convenience without compromising on quality. Every shot is captured in stunning detail and the f/4 constant aperture allows creative flexibility whether you’re shooting at wide, standard, or telephoto focal lengths.

Every focal length tells a story

Sweeping landscapes, impressive architecture, lively street photography, captivating portraits—and so much more. The superbly flexible 24-120mm focal-length range frees you to take in all the angles without changing lenses.

More to shoot with, less to carry

The NIKKOR Z 24-120mm f/4 S is beautifully portable for a zoom lens with such a broad range. Stay in one spot or move around freely as you frame your shot. With a zoom lens this compact and versatile, you have choices.

Wherever you may roam

With its solid build, this high-performance lens has your back on just about any journey. It’s sealed to protect from dust and drips, and Nikon’s Fluorine coating on the front element repels dirt and easily wipes clean.¹

Exceptional image quality

With a lens this capable, you’re free to seek out the shots others aren’t taking. Boldly shoot directly into harsh light sources. Nail dramatic backlit scenes. Set your subject apart with soft, creamy bokeh. The NIKKOR Z 24-120mm f/4 S opens up your options by capturing astoundingly sharp images with captivating resolution—all the way to the edges of the frame.

Consistency throughout the zoom range

Stills or movies, the constant f/4 maximum aperture allows superb creative control. Capture portraits and close-ups with greater depth of field across the zoom range. Change focal lengths without changing exposure when shooting movies.

Clarity that transports you

Nikon’s ARNEO Coat and Nano Crystal Coat keep images clear by combatting ghosting and flare caused by incidental light coming from any direction. You’ll nail beautiful images even if shooting scenes with direct light sources in the frame.

Move closer

A short minimum focusing distance and 0.39 maximum reproduction ratio let you fill the frame with detail. Isolate subjects against wide backgrounds or experiment with compression: you can shoot as close as 0.35 m across the zoom range.

Superb video performance

The NIKKOR Z 24-120mm f/4 S is a great video lens. Autofocus is smooth and silent with virtually no focus-shift or focus breathing. If you’re transitioning from interiors to exteriors, or between darker and lighter scenes, stable exposure control enables a natural shift in brightness for beautifully natural-looking footage.

Customisable control

Easily control shooting parameters right from the lens. You can use the silent control ring for settings like aperture, ISO, and exposure compensation. And you can assign favourite functions to the lens’ Fn button.

Multi-focusing system

The Z multi-focusing system uses two AF drive units precisely synchronised to deliver fast, accurate autofocusing and drastically reduce lens aberrations across the entire zoom range. You’ll capture sharp, clear images even up close.
