Nikon Z8 vs D850: It's FINALLY time for MIRRORLESS!

Chelsea & Tony Northrup give their first review of the Nikon Z8, comparing it to the greatest DSLR of all time: the Nikon D850. For Nikon photographers and videographers, is it time to switch from DSLR to mirrorless cameras? If budget isn&a concern, the answer is pretty much YES. The Nikon Z8 is far superior for video. Compared to the Nikon D850, the Nikon Z8 has more than twice as high a frame rate at 20 FPS raw still and 30 FPS full-resolution JPGs. The Z8 can shoot silently and it has intelligent subject detection and tracking that works really well for humans and, even more challenging, animals. Overall, the Nikon Z8 is a big improvement from the Nikon D850. However, the a used D850 is about 1/3 the price of a new Z8... and the $2650 you save can go a long way towards lenses, lights, and other purchases that can make more of an improvement to your photography. So should you choose the less expensive DSLR or is buying the mirrorless D850 finally the right choice? 0:00 Introduction 1:20 D850 vs Z8 - Design, Size & Handling 3:21 D850 vs Z8 - Image Quality 4:54 Nikon D850 Video 7:00 D850 vs Z8 - Wildlife Photography FPS & Autofocus 10:24 Nikon F-mount lenses vs Z-mount lenses 11:50 Summary
