Weddings mark some of life’s most special moments, and while the excitement of the revelries may fade from the mind, the memories live on in wedding photos and videos. As wedding photographers, while your skills are essential to immortalize the moments around you, flawless shots call for the best cameras in the business. That is precisely what you can expect from the latest in the Nikon Z series of mirrorless cameras – the Z 6II and Z 7II. While the new models retain the same, large Z mount from the first generation of the Z Series mirrorless models, they boast a number of enhanced features, such as dual memory card slots, improved battery capacity with the new MB-N11 Battery Pack, and dual EXPEED 6 image processing engines, working in seamless harmony to deliver a far superior experience and results.

Ideal for capturing both stills and videos, these lightweight and easy-to-use full-frame mirrorless cameras are a wedding photographer’s dream come true and can be chosen according to requirements, shooting environment, and budget.

Let’s take a closer look as to why the Nikon Z 6II and Z 7II are fast becoming the go-to choices of professionals for weddings and other celebrations.

Moreover, besides human detection, the models also come with Animal-Detection, perfect to capture fur babies.
