Nikon Z7 review by DpreviewTV


DpreviewTV:

The Z7 presented Nikon with a stiff challenge: how to build a mirrorless camera that measures up to its own DSLRs and can deliver a familiar experience to Nikon users. Chris and Jordan have been using the camera for a couple months for everything from landscapes to a studio shoot with portrait photographer Nathan Elson. Find out whether they think Nikon succeeded. Editor’s note: In order to fully cover the Z7’s new video capabilities, we will be publishing a separate video focused entirely on the camera’s video features and performance.
