Nikon Z 7 Mirrorless Camera

More than mirrorless. Nikon mirrorless.

Our vision has always been to create cameras and lenses that capture more light. More light means more detail. More speed. More possibilities. The Z 7 brings that vision to life (and then some). Combining the advantages of a lightweight mirrorless design, a revolutionary new full-frame lens mount, and matched lenses, a Nikon designed 45.7MP image sensor and seamless integration with Nikon’s DSLR system—including the NIKKOR lenses you love—the Z 7 is a camera unlike any before it. And yet, it’s unmistakably a Nikon. This is mirrorless reinvented.

• 45.7 Megapixels
• FX Format
• 9 FPS Continuous Shooting
• 64–25,600 ISO
• 4K UHD at 30/25/24p

The next generation of NIKKOR glass.

Empowered by the larger Z Mount and shorter 16mm flange focal distance, NIKKOR Z lenses gather more light and break traditional rules of the "sweet spot". Forget about stopping down for maximum sharpness—NIKKOR Z are at their best and deliver corner-to-corner sharpness even at their widest aperture.

Greater performance from the lenses you love.

When used with the optional Mount Adapter FTZ, more than 90 F-Mount NIKKOR lenses maintain all of their sharpness, resolving power and functionality and gain the advantages of the Z 7’s in-body VR, silent shooting, PDAF focusing system, 4K video and more. Approximately 360 F-Mount NIKKOR lenses can be used. Compatibility as only Nikon can deliver.

493-POINT ON-SENSOR PDAF

The points of the story.

493 on-sensor AF points cover 90% of the frame (approx.) horizontally and vertically. Subjects are acquired quickly when they enter the frame and tracked throughout the frame, even to the far edges.

NEW HYBRID AUTOFOCUS

The best of both worlds.

Using an AF algorithm optimized for its FX-format sensor, Z 7 automatically switches between focal-plane phase-detect AF and contrast-detect AF to fine-tune focus. The light-shielding phase detection pixels are carefully arranged on the sensor to preserve light, ensuring accurate AF even in dim lighting.

NEW SUBJECT TRACKING

Follow a face in the crowd.

Whether shooting eye-level with the EVF or in Live View with the LCD, Auto Area AF smoothly tracks your subject's face—even when it’s one among many. The system pays attention to the upper body, too, maintaining focus position when your subject briefly turns away from the camera or moves out of view.

NEW 3.6M-DOT QUAD VGA VIEWFINDER

Oh, what a view.

Take an ultra-high resolution QUAD VGA display, add Nikon optics for magnification, including Aspherical lens elements and Fluorine coating, and you’ve got an EVF experience unlike any before it. Minimal lag and blackout, 100% frame coverage (approx.), corner-to-corner clarity and sharp magnification. It has the feel of an optical viewfinder, and you can use it for both stills and videos.

NEW ICON-DRIVEN INFO DISPLAY

Keep your eye on the prize.

All relevant info is displayed out of the way and is easy on the eyes. A new customizable menu appears right inside the viewfinder, so you can quickly adjust settings without ever taking your eye off the shot. Focus modes, white balance, exposure, VR settings, Picture Controls, and more—all within eye’s reach. Preview exposure and white balance changes, image stabilization, and depth-of-field in real time. You can even review the photo or video you just shot.

UP TO 5 STOPS OF VR IMAGE STABILIZATION

Rocksteady. Tack sharp.

Powerful in-body 5-axis VR image stabilization is applied to whatever NIKKOR Z lens you’re using. Up to five stops of image stabilization in up to five directions—yaw, pitch, roll, X, and Y. During video recording, optical VR is combined with electronic VR (e-VR) for even steadier shots. Normal VR mode for static subjects. Sports VR for moving subjects.

VR FOR F-MOUNT NIKKOR LENSES

Your favorite lenses now have VR.

For the first time, F-Mount NIKKOR lenses like the AF-S NIKKOR 105mm f/1.4E ED or AF-S NIKKOR 14-24mm f/2.8G ED can benefit from in-body 3-axis VR. NIKKOR lenses that already have VR, like the AF-S NIKKOR 70-200mm f/2.8E FL ED VR, get the added benefit of roll axis for a total of 3-axis VR. Just add the optional Mount Adapter FTZ and you’re good to go.

FULL FRAME 4K ULTRA HD

Amazing productions start here.

Capture cinematic 16:9 4K UHD/30p video in full-frame using the total width and resolution of the Z 7’s backside-illuminated sensor. Clean output at high ISO. Zero crop factor with full-frame NIKKOR Z and F-Mount NIKKOR lenses. Full-pixel readout in DX Mode for sharper 4K footage with rich information equivalent to 5K. Focus Peaking in both 4K and 1080p recording. Simultaneous 8MP stills. This is 4K as it was meant to be.

NEW Z MOUNT

A breakthrough in optical design.

17% larger internal diameter than Nikon's acclaimed F-Mount. Wider than any full-frame mount available. It totally changes what’s possible with lens design. Enhanced low-light performance. Even illumination from corner-to-corner. Maximum apertures as wide as f/0.95. Faster data transfer between camera and lens. This is the ideal balance between mount diameter, the large image sensor, and flange focal distance.

9 FPS SHOOTING

The speed to succeed.

Shoot up to 9 FPS at full resolution (12-bit RAW or JPEG) with minimal shooting noise and without the need for an external battery pack. For complete silence, switch to Silent Mode and shoot up to 8 FPS with no mechanical noise.

ISO 64 (EXPANDABLE TO ISO 32)

Lower sensitivity. Greater sensibility.

Increased light capture means you can shoot at lower sensitivity more often. And the lower the sensitivity, the greater the detail, color range, and contrast.

ISO 25,600 (EXPANDABLE TO 102,400)

Cloak yourself in darkness.

More light gathering potential, flawless EXPEED 6 noise reduction, and new NIKKOR Z lenses free you to explore the darker side of light with entirely new brilliance.

REMOTE SHOOTING

Your smartphone is your favorite accessory.

With SnapBridge version 2.5, you can also use your compatible smartphone as a remote monitor and controller. Touch focus, adjust settings like exposure mode, white balance and more, then fire the shutter.

NEW USB BATTERY CHARGING

Leading the charge.

For the first time in a full-frame Nikon camera, you can charge the Z 7’s new EN-EL15b battery in the camera through a standard USB-C connection—from your computer, a wall outlet or other charging device. Already have EN-EL15a/EN-EL15 batteries? They work with the Z 7, too.

NEW CONNECTIVITY OPTION

Wire-free to your Mac or PC.

Connect to a Mac or PC over Wi-Fi and wirelessly transfer RAW, JPEG and movie files. Two modes available: Camera Access Point mode, for connecting directly to a PC, and Station (STA) mode, for connecting over a router.

REMOTE SHOOTING AND RF SPEEDLIGHT CONTROL

Capture and create remotely.

Take control of the light with any compatible Nikon Speedlight. Use the optional WR-R10 Wireless Remote Controller for wirelessly controlling SB-5000 Speedlights from another room, around corners or outdoors in bright sunlight. Advanced Wireless Lighting using optically controlled Speedlights like the SB-700 and SB-500 is also possible. For remote shooting, the WR-1 and WR-R10 Wireless Remote Controllers can be used.
