I really like the product, it fully meets my expectations.

Firstly, I am a fan of the Nikon brand, I started my journey with nikon d7000, d750, d500 cameras, I always thought about a mirrorless system, but Nikon kept pulling with the answer, and I didn’t want to betray my favorite brand to switch to competitors. Over time, I acquired a decent fleet of lenses for the Nikon F mount, and here comes the answer to all competitors in the face of the Z line. For the first time, I was able to support it in my hands at a presentation in my city and immediately thought about replacing my nikon d750, since I didn’t have enough focus points, autofocus speed, and most importantly, I needed a camera that works great with video. Over time, I read a bunch of reviews and articles and realized that Nikon has made a product that meets all modern requirements, calmly competes with direct competitors, and maybe even surpasses them. In short, I bought a Nikon Z 6 + FTZ Adapter Kit with a 64 GB memory card as a gift, a huge fleet of lenses in my backpack for many years is fully compatible with this camera, though I had to wait for firmware for my lenses, there are no problems with native nikon lenses . Additional batteries from my cameras are fully compatible with Nikon Z6, yes XQD cards are very expensive, but as a photographer and this is my working tool, you always have to sacrifice money if you want to work with modern technology. In the future I plan to purchase an electronic image stabilizer and an external video recorder. Nikon gave a worthy answer to all competitors and its name is the Nikon Z series, and most importantly, the company does not forget about professionals and lovers of classic SLR cameras, continuing to release new models.

Pros

First of all, it is convenient ergonomics, the kit included an adapter for using lenses for the Nikon F mount, excellent jpeg, it shoots video in high quality, very tenacious, fast autofocus on the eyes and face, an excellent digital viewfinder that is not inferior to the optical one. The new XQD card format gives us the possibility of high-speed shooting, all the advantages of a mirrorless camera in place, no misses, we see with our own eyes the picture we get before the shutter is released, light weight, incredible video capabilities, the ability to use external video recorders (after a firmware ate) . The choice fell on the Nikon Z6, since the camera shoots video from the entire surface of the matrix, unlike the Nikon Z7, and I don’t need such a huge number of megapixels. Over time, I want to go broke and buy a nikon 24-70 2/8 for the new Nikon Z mount, according to tests, this is a perfect and revolutionary glass, to my great regret. in 2022 it is very expensive in relation to other countries. I work in tandem with Nikon D500 and fully cover all my requirements in work. I am completely satisfied with the camera, it is light, fast and copes with all the tasks, the transition turned out to be not so expensive for me, since I sold the old camera and have more than 5 lenses in my collection, and video shooting brings me good income.

Cons

The lack of XQD card readers on sale, the lack of a second slot for a card, at the beginning I experienced difficulties with third-party lenses through the FTZ Adapter (ates correct this shortcoming). If you have large hands, then it will seem less convenient to you, but I assure you Nikon z6 is much more convenient than direct competitors. The flip-out screen has a smaller angle than Nikon DSLRs, which is not very convenient if you want to raise the camera above you and take a picture. Matrix stabilization does not work in conjunction with lens stabilization.
