Nikon users, imagine unlocking a whole new world of potential with your Nikon Z8. Firmware version 3.0 makes this a reality, bringing upgrades that redefine photography, videography, and workflow for passionate creators like you.
Picture capturing every intricate detail of a fine art masterpiece or an architectural marvel. Firmware version 3.0 for the Nikon Z8 introduces the world's first combined Pixel Shift with focus shift or AE bracketing workflow, so you can now create jaw-dropping, ultra-high-resolution images of up to 180 megapixels. All while maintaining the depth, sharpness, and range the Z8 provides, your work will be nothing short of spectacular, perfect for professionals looking to leave a mark.
Keep your focus on point with the upgraded in-camera focus limiter. Set your range, and let your Z8 work its magic. By setting a [Nearest] and [Farthest] point, your lens will ignore everything outside of that range, offering you faster, unparalleled control over autofocus, helping you capture every moment just the way you envisioned it.
