That can be interesting to check when 4K 120fps will arrive, my main interest on this one :- )

Looks like people are prone to feel themselves attracted for the lowest the better, sorta eschatological. That vertical mania when we have eyes horizontally positioned is the proof of this.

You're pretty on the spot on everything else but ; ) this guy here says non-native glass is surprising him, even better results than native ones as far as AF performance concerns, go figure! Seems FTZ-II adapter is a winner here. For stabilization though, the story can be another one anyway, I guess :- )

Just sayin' no cooling hurts more...

In fact : D In two pieces: price and form factor. Market segment and weight are the unquestionable keys there. - EAG :- )

What a heaven of a post towards a real brand and format agnostic truly professional tool without the customary BS talk to fall on deaf ears of a community for decades I see, man! @Django&@FHDcrew your likes to say 'thanks' are too short, I'm afraid, here's then more on topic ; ) And who will miss it, fits both on this couple of no-clue about: a) what a brand like Nikon means up to 2023 still without video high-end to protect so far; b) we've finally arrived in 2023 whereas the introduction of a hybrid camera series pops up to make more sense than two separate worlds... Including to those junkies of still photography thinking the other half as the dark side, not yet missing in action for sure but maybe closer, i.e., definitely less far away than ever before : ) In conclusion, hence what this Nikon's entry means to me and many others I guess, not too distracted with my dick is bigger than yours mantra. :- ) - EAG

Indeed : ) Loved that part you're prone to change your mind "another five or six times", I guess I've already made such part so far in this portion of the road yet! LOL : D Looks promising anyway. The 2nd part of the other tests above-posted is just going online here: I'd still look for more tests exploring all the possible combinations though. Z8 is a completely different beast than the older sister IMO from its intrinsic modular form factor. Apples to oranges :- )

I've actually been wondering on how much we can workaround and circumvent the overheating hassle with something like this: https://www.zitay.net/ZITAY-CS-305-CFexpress-Type-B-to-SSD-Convertor-Card-Reader-Adapter-XQD-CFE-CFX-Replacer-Substitute-Nikon-Z6-Z7-D5-D6-D850-D500-PANASONIC-DC-S1-S1R-Canon-EOS-1DX-MarkIII-R5-C500-MarkII-p779221.html Let alone set it with a more convenient temperature cutout from (auto) standard to high: source

LOL Well, looks like I had to read it twice to fully understand it was not me writing that! : ) And yet, still believing you somehow incorporated inside my being and decided to sign the post anyway : D I add to that 24-200mm all-around zoom lens those also Nikkor (why else they would launch their new branded devices then?) primes 20mm f/1.8 and 105mm macro f/2.8 without compulsively resisting to that light 40mm f/2 bargain, once I'm already doing my best for now with those Viltrox primes.

More overheating tests (this time versus Z9).

Any takers? https://www.zsystemuser.com/z-mount-lenses/nikkor-lenses/nikon-z-mount-lens-reviews/ Let's also not forget whether 3rd party lenses or those coming from F, Canon and E mount adapters.

Looks like according to the info from the link above-posted, you cannot if the 2nd one is restricted only to provide power.

Interesting full article from those usual guys... with endless customary technical stuff about the new coming kid on the block: https://www.newsshooter.com/2023/05/10/nikon-z8-announced/

Wondering on the 4K 120fps capability from such small 1.1x crop added now...

I guess you've added the answer into your own post ; ) For some reason 8K50/60p either on R5C or now with Nikon's is something to not ignore : ) You cannot call it a hybrid unless you have finally a hybrid, isn't it? ;- )

Still on overheating issues, looks like they recommend an external battery for long period recordings: I wonder on that performance versus R5C though...

Hope not much confirmed further later on because... ...that's really such 'da' release TBH : ) Extra info here. https://cameradecision.com/top-cameras-with-Stacked-Sensor

I hope not, but it's sad to see anyway : (

Looks like times are ending. Crazy world. Sad story.

Really? I don't find any workaround ridiculous unless to the manufacturer, I do agree. Who exactly? The link please? I wonder how much will overheat when recording 4K 120fps...

Yes.

To those kids who have no idea of the power of Andromeda: https://vimeo.com/groups/andromeda :- )

Only you Marty? LOL : ) Where is Juan these days, by the way?

They're not the topic though, but lyrics fit the feeling.
