- Color: Black
- Camera Model Family: Nikon Z 8
- Digital Camera Type: Mirrorless Camera Body Only
- Imaging
- Image Sensor Type: Stacked CMOS (CCD and CMOS are the two main technologies used in image sensors. CCD, the older of the two types, turns analog light signals into digital pixels. This conversion happens without distortion, resulting in high-quality images. Newer CMOS sensors use transistors at each pixel to move electrical charges. CMOS sensors are typically less expensive, but also require more light to create distortion-free images.)
- Image Sensor Size: 35mm Full Frame (36 x 24 mm)
- Total Pixels: 45.7 megapixels (Generally, the more pixels, the higher the image resolution and the finer the detail that can be seen.)
- Zoom Capability: false (This function allows for magnification of the subject.)
- Digital Zoom: None (A digital zoom is accomplished electronically, with no adjustment of the camera's optics, and no optical resolution gained in the process. The existing data is not enhanced or added to, merely displayed at a lower resolution, thereby giving an illusion of an enlarged image.)
- Low Light/High Sensitivity: true (High sensitivity digital imaging devices are designed to work in low light conditions to produce a high dynamic range image.)

- Self-Timer Delay: 20 seconds, 10 seconds, 5 seconds, 2 seconds
- Shooting Modes: Programmed auto with flexible program (P),Shutter-priority auto (S), Aperture-priority auto (A), Manual (M) (Exposure modes employed by the photographer to control the optimal aperture, shutter speed, ISO, and other settings for capturing specific subjects/scenes. Examples include Aperture-Priority, Macro, and Manual modes.)

- Screen Size: 3.2 inches (Size of the screen, measured diagonally from corner to corner.)
- Viewfinder Type: Electronic, Electronic (A viewfinder is the part of a camera (or attachment) that allows you to see and focus a scene in frame. Optical viewfinders let you view the scene directly through the lens. Electronic viewfinders display the image on a screen in its approximate final form.)
- Touch Screen: true (Touch-screen devices make navigating more intuitive. Using a touch-screen display, you can do things such as tap to select, hold and drag to move items, swipe to scroll, and pinch to zoom.)
