Been using it for a few months now, and I am so pleased with the Z6ii. I know folks dog the AF system, but coming from a D3300, it’s lightyears ahead. This is a camera you learn to use but also adapt to yourself. Between integral settings like Active D-lighting, Dynamic AF, Subject Tracking, exposure lock, manual focus peaking, view finder zoom, Eye-AF, button mapping, and user control groups, I’ve gotten my Z6ii to a point where I can do just about anything I want on it with quick finger movements, minimal futzing, and my eye almost never leaving the viewfinder if I so desired. And all of this, in a comfortable, responsive, and lightweight form factor. Time will tell how durable it is, but as it stands, I’ve not had a single issue with it so far.
What’s interesting, is the camera is so easy to navigate the menus with, that I no longer do much editing on the computer anymore, it’s surprisingly quick to NEF process on the camera and then send to my iPhone for sharing. I only use Lightroom, NX Studio, or Photoshop for library management and special projects. Plus, I like the true-to-life look straight out of the camera, I rarely need to alter stuff anyways.
I started on that D3300 and fell in love with the colors, Nikkor glass, image quality, and flexibility of NEF files. With the Z6ii, I got all of that, and more capability/reliability. You could go get something else from Sony or Canon with wicked fancy and reliable AF features, and no one would fault you. If I had to pick a camera strictly for that, I would pick one from their lineups too. But the point is, a camera is more than just one feature or spec, and in any case, it’s how ya use it given it’s strengths and limitations. Whatever you end up deciding, I hope you enjoy the ride and opportunity. I know I have.
PS: get an extra battery or two, the S Line 35mm f/1.8 is amazing, and read the manual and Nikon shooting guides (they actually have lots of really insightful hints and tips).

The camera body felt a lot lighter than my D750 BUT when you add lenses and an L-bracket it is still hefty. It would be interesting to see how heavy it is with the new Z lenses Nikon is starting to put out. The good is that is has an adapter which allows use of all the Nikon lenses I use on my other cameras. Nikon eliminated the “scene” and “effects” selections which I had fun with once and awhile. There are some creative setting found under the “picture control” selection. They added a “U3” button. There are two FN buttons which default to white balance and AF area mode selections. For me they are ergonomically difficult. The good news is you can customize many settings in other places so I will not be using these two buttons at all. I also didn’t like pushing down the ISO button and having to twist one of the command dials. Research amongst the forums and manual revealed that you can adjust some settings so you can push down and release the ISO button and then use the command dials which makes it much less cumbersome. The Z6ii model compared to the Z6 has two slots for memory cards. And of course, the CFexpress memory cards are pricey. Some users may just be happy using the SD card. The camera also does not have a pop-up flash like the D750 which I found useful. At the time of this writing I can’t comment on quality of photos and other techie stuff. I need more practice and there’s been too much smoke here to make image taking fun. In general I felt the learning curve between the D750 and Z6ii was not steep. Definitely quieter with no mirror noise. If you like playing with wifi, you can download Snapbridge which allows shooting with a tap of your phone which can come in handy. There are many fine cameras out there and different reasons to chose one over another. Do your research, assess your needs. Remember good glass may be a better investment than a new camera. And, as I tell myself the newest and best camera doesn’t make one a good photographer. Study, practice, practice and more practice.

The Nikon Z6 was and still is a great camera, but has been heavily derided by reviewers on the ‘Tube. Some of the criticisms were unjustified, while others had some merit. The Z6 II fills in any of the gaps that caused these criticisms.
The TLDR of this camera is that its a refined Z6. Nikon listened and updated the Z6 in every was that was necessary.
Still, the reviewers will hold this up against the Sonys and the Canons, but Nikon’s target audience is not people switching camera systems. Instead, Nikon’s audience is its own current DSLR consumer base who may want to go mirrorless.
The theme for the Z6 II (note that Nikon does not call it a “Mark II”) is two of everything.
Internally, this camera is faster and has a larger buffer, due to the inclusion of a second processor.
Continuous High shooting speed has increased by two frames per second from 12 to 14.
There are now two card slots (1 XQD/CFExpress Type B and a USH-II SD card). I wish there were two of the same cards for convenience. The Z5 has two SD card slots if you prefer that.
The Z6 II supports a vertical battery grip with buttons for taking photos in portrait orientation. So now there are two sets of buttons, with the optional grip.
It has the same sensor as the Z6, so no changes there.
Currently as of this writing (November 15, 2020), none of the major photo editing software packages have been updated to support the .NEF raw files it produces. This is normal for newly released cameras, and the updates should be coming soon. In the meantime, you can shoot raw and jpeg so you can edit the raw files later. Alternatively, you can use Nikon’s Capture NX software.
My firmware is 1.00. Firmware updates will make it even better (like the video updates coming in February 2021).
It uses the en-el15c battery, but accepts the older en-el15 and en-el15b batteries.
I think the greatest improvement so far is the wide area eye detection, where you can enable a red box in the viewfinder that restricts the eye detection to only eyes inside the red box. This way, you are giving the camera a helping hand as to where you want it to look for eyes. This is a rather unique approach that I don’t believe any other camera system supports.
Overall, the Z6 II feels familiar more than it feels different. In fact, if you have a Z6, you may not need to upgrade to the Z6 II, depending on your needs. If you are a still life, street, or portrait photographer, your Z6 is still a great camera. Pros and wedding photographers (business owners) will probably want to upgrade though for the autofocus, dual card slots, and speed improvements. If you shoot fast action or wildlife, I think this is a great upgrade for you due to the speed improvements.
This is the complete camera from Nikon. Nikon has given everyone what they wanted in the Z6 II.

I didn’t even notice for over 2 years because my camera worked great, but when I applied for a service with Nikon, they sent me an email stating that my camera was gray market. I paid full price for it too – had no idea. I purchased this item from 6ave. PLEASE check with Nikon to ensure you’re not buying gray market for any Nikon equipment purchased outside the Nikon website. There is a serial number behind the LCD screen for all Z cameras – use that to determine if it has a valid USA warranty with Nikon. Having gray market equipment can be an issue if you ever need to send it in for repair. You will also be ineligible for certain Nikon services if you do not have a USA warranty (assuming you live in the US). There’s a lot of stuff like this online unfortunately. Your best bet is to buy direct from the Nikon website. It may cost more initially, but it can save you thousands in the long run.
I gave this 3 stars because the camera works great – not the product’s fault – although the Z6II’s auto-focus system compared to the Z9 and Z8 cameras is poor.

I’m an avid consumer of Nikon products starting from the SLR and transcend to DSLR, now the mirrorless Z series. Actually I owned and still possess 9 cameras all together. Bought Z 50 bundle and Z 6ii two weeks apart. Shooting in very low light is just amazing and blew me away. Oh, my hobby includes still life photography in addition to landscape and architecture. I also venture on portraitures and both the Z series comes in very handy. Love it! With the adapter and I can use most of my lens. Minor issue is connection to Bluetooth and WiFi to which I believed will be able to figure out soon.
