Nikon Z8

Hi,

And then the other thought: that the Z8 is to be higher res than the Z9 and so replace the Z7 while the Z9 is really the Z6 replacement. And, so, then no Mark III versions of the Z6 and Z7.

Just to forward one of the SWAG sections of a previous Z8 rumor/speculation threads....

And then there was another one where the Z8 has resolution between the Z6 and the Z9.

Oh, and we shouldn't forget the one where the Z8 is the same as the Z9 minus the built in vertical grip.

Vapourware is ever present. Physics are real
The Z8 is something less real than vapourware. At least with vapourware the company has at least made some sort of mention or an announcement. Even the rumours are just something the internet conjured up out of wants from the different corners of the internet.

The Z8 is the product of our imagination. Imagineware if you will. Schrödinger’s camera. It is everything while at the same time also nothing.
It is the vacuum camera, arising from spontaneous quantum fluctuations of the Z field.
 
Don't forget the 12 stops of dynamic range and 24 stops of Image stabilisation.

Great cartoon indeed. :-D
 
Is there any news on this rumored camera besides information obtainable on a Google search?
For the sake of Nikon, it better not be a rumor. Because it is widely expected that Sony and Canon will shortly be releasing some really High End Gear that will be highly desirable. That can put a cork in what was Hot, for others. So the Margin for Error, is thinning, Each year.

It can't just be about the Lens an or the Z9.

So if the Z8 is just a repurposed Sony a7riv sensor, I don't believe that would be enough. I say a Baby Z9 aka Z8 with the Z9 sensor, however would be.
 
Seth Miranda is predicting the first quarter of 2023
 
This year, Santa will drop on under the tree for each of us. It will be in a kit with a 10mm - 800mm f/1.2 super zoom. It will be awesome.
That’s just silly. It would be really expensive and very big.

I’d be perfectly happy with a 28-800 f/1.4 though.
 
people have been talking about this so long that Nikon if they release it will have to call it the Z8ii.

The Z1 should be the penultimate Z camera. That's the one I'm waiting for.

The Z1 already exists. That is a two-seater BMW: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/BMW_Z1

gSo you should be. Even Canon users seem to gave finally given up on the R1. Anyway, Nikon’s got so many other numbers to choose from apart from 8: Z10, 20, 4, 3, 2. ..1
 
Hi,

And every piece of Electronics which has at least one Zener Diode! :P

Z is the designation for a Zener Diode. And we begin at number 1.

Come to think on it, most have quite a few Zeners in there. So many, many Z8s out there! ;)
