Unlike the Df, which promised photographic purity by omitting an video features, the Zf is a pretty capable video machine. These profiles can be applied to both still images and video footage, and emphasize Nikon's focus on the creative process. B&W modeĬommanding its own position on the control that selects between stills and video shooting, the camera's black and white mode gives a choice of mono profiles including a low-contrast 'Flat mono' and 'Deep tone mono' that accentuates red details in the scene. ![]() There's also a JPEG-only 'C30' mode that uses a video stream to shoot 30fps images, with a pre-burst option like that on the Z8 and Z9. We've been given a variety of numbers for the camera's burst rate, with 11fps apparently the maximum rate in Raw (in Continuous High Extended mode, that we suspect won't include live view refreshes between shots), and up to 15 or 14fps depending on the use of electronic or mechanical shutter for JPEG mode. The move to the latest processor also allows the Zf to capture Raw files compressed with the more efficient High Efficiency compression system we first saw on the Z9. It's this noise reduction in the JPEGs and HEIF files that convinced Nikon to let the camera's ISO range expand up to 204,800 (the unexpanded limit also rises to 64,000). In addition there's context-sensitive noise reduction that more aggressively smooths areas that appear not to have detail. For a start it brings subject recognition to the camera's AF system as well as a Z9-like implementation of the company's '3D Tracking' along with the 9-type subject recognition system. The adoption of the latest 'Expeed 7' processor brings significant changes, though. Nikon isn't making any claims about the Zf's 24MP BSI CMOS sensor being new and, other than wider AF coverage, most of its performance appears to be consistent with the elderly but well-respected sensor in the Z6 II. Support DPReview, pre-order the Nikon Zf at one of these retailers: The Zf will be available will be available from mid October at a recommended price of $2000, the same as the launch price of the Nikon Z6 II, which gives a reasonable idea of the camera's ambitions. 32-shot high-res mode to give 96MP images. ![]()
