Nikon Z 7
Nikon D850
Maybe some friends who like D850 will be unconvinced. Don't worry, let me tell you the reason slowly.
For Nikon D850, although it has been released for almost three years, there is no doubt that its performance is still strong. Whether it is about 45.75 million effective pixels, a sensor supporting ISO 64-25600 sensitivity, or a focusing system with up to 153 focusing points, it is not inferior to any flagship camera today. However, even if the performance of Nikon D850 is very powerful, the performance of Z 7 as a micro-camera can not be underestimated. Nikon Z 7 may be a particularly comprehensive camera among Nikon cameras at present, and it is excellent in both static frame shooting and video shooting.

Nikon Z 7 has made a comprehensive improvement in video shooting. The video focusing system uses 435 autofocus points, which basically covers a wide focusing area. A large increase in the number of focal points can naturally make the focusing speed faster and more accurate. I believe that students who often shoot videos will be surprised to hear this, especially those who often shoot wedding videos. Accurate and fast focusing will undoubtedly greatly improve work efficiency and avoid the risk of losing focus at important moments. Secondly, Z 7 also has excellent anti-shake performance, and the built-in 5-axis VR shock absorption and electronic shock absorption function make it possible to shoot video with Z 7. After all, professional PTZ is not only expensive but also heavy. I don't like to take PTZ when shooting. It's too much trouble, and it's tiring to carry it around.

Of course, all the above may be icing on the cake. Excellent picture quality is where Z 7 really conquered me. D850 once symbolized the image quality of Quan Huafu. Now, the thin Nikon Z 7 perfectly inherits the excellent performance of D850 in image quality. The same 45.75 megapixel sensor and native ISO 64 sensitivity make the images taken by this computer king not only rich in details, but also clean and sharp. I believe this can fully meet the top demand of professional photographers for image quality.

As can be seen from the above, compared with Nikon D850, the performance of Nikon Z 7 is not only backward, but also improved. As a new model released later, Nikon Z 7 has a more obvious improvement in handling and experience than D850. Moreover, because Nikon Z 7 is a micro-camera, with the newly released Z-mount lens, it has an absolute advantage in lightweight. I used to hear users of Nikon D850 complaining that they were using "fitness equipment" every day. The Z system was nearly 1kg lighter than the previous SLR system, so my mother no longer had to worry that we could not carry equipment. Of course, there is no doubt that Nikon D850 is still the king of the machine, and friends who like SLR are still very worthy of starting this machine, but if there are friends who are entangled between Nikon D850 and Nikon Z 7, I personally recommend buying Nikon Z 7.
