The Nikon Z6 II has been trending on Google, so I decided to take a little trip down memory lane and relive the launch of arguably the first full-frame mirrorless camera that Nikon got right (along with the Nikon Z7 II, of course). Clearly, people are still interested in this nearly six-year-old camera, but looking at prices online, my advice is to at least consider the Nikon Z5 II instead.
You see, the Nikon Z6 II is still available for purchase where it officially retails for $1,749.95 / £1,799, but can often be found well below $1,500 / £1,500. That’s a great price for a full-frame camera that’s more than capable of being a professional workhorse. But the Nikon Z5 II can be found for a similar price and, in some cases, cheaper.
