Sigma 30mm f/1.4 DC DN Contemporary Lens (Sony E)

The Z8 uses a 45.7MP FX-format stacked CMOS sensor that enables blackout-free continuous shooting and fast sensor readout speeds, eliminating rolling shutter distortion in video and high-speed stills.

Records 8K30p and 4K120p video internally in 10-bit N-Log and HLG formats, with 8.3K 60p N-RAW and 4.1K 60p ProRes RAW output available over HDMI for external recorders.

The 493-point phase-detect autofocus system covers a wide area of the frame and uses AI-based subject detection to track people, animals, birds, vehicles, and aircraft with high reliability.

Shoots at up to 20 frames per second in RAW format and 30 frames per second in JPEG with the electronic shutter, supported by blackout-free live view through the EVF during continuous shooting.

A 3.69 million-dot OLED electronic viewfinder with 0.8x magnification and 120fps refresh delivers a smooth, accurate live image for tracking fast-moving subjects and precise manual focusing.

The 3.2-inch 2.1 million-dot tilting touchscreen tilts on four axes, supporting portrait orientation shooting and low-angle or overhead framing without requiring the camera to be moved.

Dual card slots accept CFexpress Type B for high-speed RAW and video recording and a UHS-II SD card as the second slot, providing flexible storage options for different workflows.

Built-in 5GHz Wi-Fi and Bluetooth enable fast wireless image transfer to smartphones and computers, remote control via the SnapBridge app, and connection to compatible accessories.

Uses the Nikon Z mount with a wide 55mm inner diameter and short 16mm flange distance, allowing optical designs that deliver high sharpness and brightness across the full frame sensor.
