Nikon Z6 resources
29 December 2021
Unveiled alongside the Z7 at the start of Nikon's new Z-mount era the Z6 was often overlooked in favour of its 45MP big brother. But with its combination of 24MP stills, better quality 4K video recording, faster frame rates and wider ISO range, at a list price only a little over half that of the Z7, the Z6 could make a strong case as the more versatile and better value camera of the pair. Even after the arrival of the cheaper Z5 and crop-frame Z50, the Z6 was arguably the sweet spot in Nikon's mirrorless range until it was superceded by the upgraded Z6 II in 2020.
Used values £850-£1000
