A user poll has crowned the Nikon Z8 the best Nikon camera of all time, not surprising for a body that received five stars on test. The fantastic tournament-style survey, conducted by Photography Life, has revealed its readership's top 10 Nikon cameras, ranging from Nikon’s SLR era, some of its best DSLRs, right through to its best mirrorless cameras. And while I do disagree with the results, it's still a very formidable list of cameras. Besides, you'll probably disagree with my list (which is coming up later).
The Nikon Z9 took the runner-up spot in Photography Life's list, which has a pro-grade form factor and a few hardware updates, but is otherwise almost identical to the Z8’s innards. Then comes the first film camera on the list, 1980's Nikon F3. This pro-level SLR was adopted by some of the biggest photographers in the industry and was also the first Nikon designed by legendary Italian designer, Giorgetto Giugiaro.
