After the launch of the Nikon Z9 in 2022, it was hard to see how it could possibly top that in 2023 – and yet it did. The Z8 borrows a lot of the tech from the Z9, so it’s not exactly a new camera as such, but it’s definitely a new concept – a ‘baby’ Z9 with almost all the power of Nikon’s flagship pro camera.
But that wasn’t the end of. Rumors were also circulating around a ‘full frame Nikon Z fc’ using the same combination of retro Nikon styling and modern digital technologies. The rumors were true. What’s more, the Nikon Zf took a step forward in build quality and finesse, a grown up alternative to the pretty but plasticky Nikon Z fc.
