Highlights

  • A dual-processor update to the Z6 with faster performance and dual card slots.
  • A 24MP full-frame sensor with in-body stabilization and improved subject detection.
  • 4K/60p video with a crop for a well-rounded hybrid all-rounder.

Who it's for

The Nikon Z6 II is a 24.5MP full-frame mirrorless camera, a strong all-rounder that leans toward action. Here's where it fits and what to keep in mind.

Best for

  • Action, sports and wildlife — 14fps burst with subject-detection AF.
  • Video and filmmaking — 4K up to 30p, 10-bit internal and Log.
  • Travel and the outdoors — in-body stabilisation plus weather sealing.
  • Low-light and events — a large full-frame sensor and ISO to 51,200.

Keep in mind

  • !Single card slot — no in-camera backup, which matters for critical paid jobs.
  • !Video is capped at 29 minutes per clip.
