About the Nikon Z6 and Z7 pre-orders tonight

By [NR] admin | Published: August 22, 2018

Several readers have already asked me how to pre-order the new Nikon Z cameras tonight – the pre-orders usually open 2-3 hours after the official announcement depending on the embargo set by Nikon. I do not know how long the embargo is this time. I will publish the links right after they go live, so stay tuned and follow NR for the latest updates (see all the different ways you can follow NR).

Just a quick reminder: today is August 22nd and the Nikon D850 is still out stock at the major US online camera stores (Adorama, B&H, Amazon). If you are even slightly considering to purchase the new Nikon Z6 or Z7, I suggest you put your pre-order in tonight, you can always cancel it later. This is what I will do. I expect the new Z cameras to be out of stock for months.

There have been a lot of Nikon Z posts in the past 48 hours – you can see them all here.

Here is the bad news: both the Nikon Z6 and Z7 mirrorless cameras will have only one XQD memory card slot

By [NR] admin | Published: August 22, 2018

In my initial report from July 3rd, I specified that the new Nikon Z6 and Z7 mirrorless camera will both have XQD and CF Express memory card slots (meaning two slots). I am pretty sure now that this information was wrong – maybe something got lost in translation, maybe the specs given to me were “XQD/CF Express” and not “XQD and CF Express”. Either way, this is the only bad news I have so far. Hopefully it is the only one.
