- The Nikon Z f mirrorless camera launches in India at Rs 1,76,995 with a full-frame sensor and EXPEED 7 processor.

Nikon Z f Mirrorless: Key Specifications and Features
At the heart of the Nikon Z f mirrorless camera is a full-frame sensor paired with Nikon's latest EXPEED 7 image processing engine. This combination delivers impressive performance for both advanced video production and everyday still photography. The EXPEED 7 processor is the same chip found in Nikon's flagship bodies, meaning users get top-tier processing speed, color accuracy, and noise handling in a more compact form factor.
On the video side, the Z f is built to impress. It records 4K UHD at up to 60p for as long as 125 minutes continuously, making it a genuine tool for video creators and documentary shooters. The camera also supports H.265 10-bit in-camera recording along with N-Log and HLG recording profiles, giving colorists and editors the latitude they need in post-production. For those who want even greater detail, the Z f can record 4K UHD video using 6K oversampling, which results in sharper, more detailed footage with reduced moiré.
A dedicated Video S mode lets users lock the shutter speed while allowing the camera to handle auto exposure automatically — a practical feature for run-and-gun shooting in changing light conditions.
Advanced Autofocus, VR, and Creative Shooting Modes
Autofocus on the Nikon Z f mirrorless is handled by a versatile AF-area mode system that includes 3D-tracking in photo mode and subject-tracking in video mode. This means the camera can keep moving subjects sharp whether you are shooting bursts of action stills or tracking a subject through a scene on video.
The Z f also features advanced Vibration Reduction (VR) performance, helping to stabilize shots even when shooting handheld. This is particularly useful for low-light photography and longer focal lengths where camera shake tends to be most noticeable.
One of the more creative additions is pixel-shift shooting, a technique where the camera captures multiple frames with tiny sensor shifts and combines them into a single high-resolution image. The result is a photograph with finer detail and more accurate color rendering than what a standard single exposure can achieve.
Monochrome Selector for Black-and-White Photography
Photographers who love black-and-white work will appreciate the new Monochrome Selector on the Nikon Z f mirrorless. This dedicated control lets you switch to B/W mode quickly and choose from a variety of monochrome picture profiles, from high-contrast street scenes to soft-toned portraits and sweeping landscapes. The camera handles the balance of light and shadow so you can focus entirely on composition.
Build Quality and Design
The Z f sports a glossy black magnesium alloy body that blends retro aesthetics with modern durability. The grip is designed for comfortable, secure handling during extended shoots, and the overall build quality reflects Nikon's reputation for producing cameras that can withstand real-world use.
