Nikon Z 6II 2020
Dual EXPEED 6 processors deliver 14 fps bursts with a 24.5MP BSI sensor and 273-point phase-detection AF featuring Eye-Detection for humans and animals. The FTZ II adapter in this bundle enables seamless use of F-mount lenses, while dual card slots and USB-C constant power enhance flexibility. Best for sports and wildlife photographers needing full-frame low-light at ISO 204800 and high burst rates, though vloggers will miss a vari-angle screen and in-body stabilization.
