How to Use Nikon Z6/Z7 - a Complete Guide (Ver. 2. 00) : The Arrival of the Mirrorless Era

By Makoto Honda

A complete guide of how to use the Nikon Z6 and Z7 cameras for still photography (Firmware version 2.00) --- There are myriad things that you can set in the Nikon Z6/Z7 user-interface --- it is simply overwhelming. Do you remember the good old days when all you had to do is set the lens aperture and the shutter speed on your Nikon F? The Nikon Z7 arrived with a 240-page user's manual (available online too). Do I have to read this whole manual to use the camera? Well, it doesn't hurt. In the process of doing exactly that, I jotted down some of the important items and made an easy reference for myself. This book contains these in a logical order. I set the "i" menu, My Menu, and User Presets U1, U2, U3. I struggled with the User Presets paradigm of the Nikon Z cameras, because the manual is not super-clear about its behavior. So I summarized for you what I was able to understand after some experiments and testing. The complete list of all the menu items are included. I added some shots I made to show you how wonderful the pictures came out to be, all straight from JPEG fine* FX format. I used Nikkor Z 24-70mm f/4 zoom lens, and some other F-mount Nikkor lenses via the FTZ adapter. I also tried a crazy-ultra-wide Voigtlander 10mm M-mount lens via an LM-NZ adapter. Thanks to the short flange distance of the Z-mount, almost any lens in the world can be attached to the Z body via some mount adapters. With the Nikon's introduction of their Z models, we are ushering in the new world of picture-taking -- The Arrival of the Mirrorless Era. You do not need a 500-page photo book to use the Nikon Z cameras. This book shows you how to use the Nikon Z cameras in a logical, easy-to-follow way. Enjoy!
