It’s 2018, and a clamor has been gathering about camera giants Nikon and Canon shirking mirrorless, despite innovation by the likes of Sony, instead holding onto a fading power, the DSLR. People are asking, “will they ever go mirrorless?”
Five years ago this week, on 23rd August, everything changed. Nikon (and Canon was soon to follow) disrupted the mirrorless camera market with the twin release of the Nikon Z6 and Z7, two all-new cameras utilizing an entirely new Z-mount – Nikon’s first lens mount for almost sixty years, after 1959’s F-mount for its SLR cameras.
