With Nikon releasing both the Nikon Zf and Nikon Z8 in 2023, it was hard to see how it could keep up the momentum in 2024. But with the launch of the Nikon Z6 III it did just that, shoehorning much of the tech of cameras higher up the range into a 24.5MP full-frame body with a revolutionary partially stacked sensor.
Even more remarkable, perhaps, is that, towards the end of the year, Nikon also squeezed much of the Z8 and Z9 tech into the dinky Z50 II with its downsized APS-C sensor. It really is an entry-level camera on the outside, with the guts of a pro model on the inside.
