The Nikon Z6 is one of two full-frame mirrorless cameras introduced by Nikon in August of 2018. It’s very similar to its big brother, the Z7, with the main differences being the sensor (24MP vs 46MP) and the decrease in resolution that comes along with it.
Then, Is a Nikon Z6 a good first camera? How much of a beginner are you, really? The Z6 is a great camera, and as the others here have posted, it is very capable of producing wonderful images. HOWEVER, it can be very frustrating to someone who is really a beginner. There are many, many settings to be set up.
Is the Z6 worth buying? For the most part, the Z6 is capable of vibrant, detail-rich images with very good dynamic range and flexible raw files. High ISO performance, as we’ve come to expect with modern full-frame cameras, is quite impressive, making the Nikon Z6 a good choice for low-light situations.
Keeping this in view, Is Nikon Z6 discontinued? The Nikon Z6 II + FTZ and Nikon Z7 II +FTZ kits are also listed as discontinued. The Nikon FTZ is on backorder at Adorama and is currently in stock at Amazon in case you need the integrated tripod mount that is not present in the new FTZ II version.
