Nikon's flagship mirrorless — 45.7MP stacked sensor with 20fps, 8K video, and Z9-derived performance.
The Nikon Z8 was released in 2023 as the professional full-frame mirrorless in a compact body form, featuring a 45.7MP stacked BSI CMOS sensor — the same sensor as the Z9 in a body without the built-in vertical grip. 8K/30fps. 4K/120fps. N-RAW and ProRes RAW internal. 5-axis IBIS (5.5 stops; 6 stops with Synchro VR). EN-EL15c. At 910g with battery.
45.7MP full-frame stacked BSI CMOS sensor. 8K (7680×4320) at 30fps; 4K at 120fps; N-RAW and ProRes RAW internal recording. 5-axis IBIS rated 5.5 stops (6 stops Synchro VR with compatible lenses). EN-EL15c battery (~340 shots CIPA). Approximately 910g with battery and card. Blackout-free continuous shooting. Nikon Z full-frame mount.
The Z8 delivers Z9 sensor and processing capability in a body without the Z9's integrated grip: the same 45.7MP stacked sensor, same 8K video, same N-RAW internal, and same subject detection AF — at approximately 350g less than the Z9. The EN-EL15c is a standard Nikon mirrorless battery (shared with Z5/Z6/Z7 series), though the 340-shot CIPA rating reflects the Z8's power demands at high processing throughput.
On the used market the Nikon Z8 is available at professional Z-mount pricing. Condition checks: EN-EL15c battery health, 8K/4K recording function, IBIS operation. Compatible with all Nikon Z-mount lenses.
