This is the one tech purchase you have to make in 2019

This is the age of social media, and with it comes a wave of snap-happy consumers ready to document their every move.

In this visual era, the difference between being a good photographer and a great one really comes down to the quality of tech you¡¯re armed with. That applies whether you¡¯re an experienced photographer, or an Insta-enthusiast who wants to improve their skills.

Nikon¡¯s new Z6 camera delivers on all fronts ¡ª it¡¯s innovation meets intelligence, and it¡¯s the purchase you need to make in 2019 to upgrade your photography skills (and your Insta-game).

Packed with features

The Z6 is a camera with enough heft and advanced functions (yes, it¡¯s a workhorse!) to satisfy professional snappers, but boasts a slimmer, more compact body ¡ª an added bonus for tourists and adventurers travelling light.

It¡¯s also an ideal upgrade for existing Nikon fans wanting to use the lenses they already own. The Z6 has a new lens, but also comes with an adapter that lets you use your old Nikon lenses ¡ª which means it¡¯s a long-term investment which saves you upgrading every few years!

The camera¡¯s impressively high ISO feature and in-body stabilisation gives photographers a lot of leeway when shooting in low light ¡ª which makes it great for taking pictures in dimly lit scenarios like museums, theatres, or at evening events.

The chic mirrorless design and quiet functionality ensures you¡¯re super low-key while snapping wildlife. Similarly, the high-speed shooting functions make it oh-so-easy to take clear, crisp shots of people on the move ¡ª so you¡¯ll never miss capturing your kids¡¯ soccer goals again!

What we love about the Nikon Z6

The compact body takes sleek to a new level
Nikon¡¯s Z series works hard to show both professional and amateur snappers how serious they are about embracing a hi-tech mirrorless design. As a result, the body is smaller and slimmer to hold, but also feels nicely robust and similar to the DSLR you¡¯re used to.

The lenses are smaller and superior
Another plus? The lenses are smaller and can be made brighter, which coupled with the short 16mm flange focal distance and back-illuminated, large-image sensor, adds up to excellent image quality.

The Z mount just makes life easier
Arguably the most exciting feature on the Z6 is the much wider lens mount, which works well with the full-frame mirrorless design.

Excellent electronic viewfinder (EVF)
Featuring an impressive 3.69-million-dot resolution, the EVF captures incredible detail and serves up crisp, rich colour. It also displays a lot of info including exposure settings, battery life, photos remaining on your XQD card, and more.

The FTZ lens adaptor means your old become new
Existing Nikon users won¡¯t have to let their treasured DLSR lenses get dusty in a drawer. The Z6¡¯s FTZ adaptor enables you to use your existing F-mount VR lenses on the new body ¡ª resourceful and economic!

5-axis in-body image stabilisation
Wondering about camera shake? You¡¯re sorted with this new release. The lens-based image stabilisation Nikon¡¯s DSLRs are known for has been swapped on the Z6 for an in-camera, 5-axis body stabilisation system.

Advanced video functions are just so, advanced
Looking to shoot handheld family movies in HD, or capture high-speed footage? The Z6¡¯s 24.5 Megapixel Backside Illuminated Sensor captures full-frame, uncropped 4K Ultra HD quality video for maximum sharpness ¡ª while its Vibration Reduction (E-VR) system reduces camera shake while filming.

Great autofocus performance which takes out the hard work
The Z6¡¯s autofocus performance is spot on, and it¡¯s fast and responsive in continuous autofocus mode. The high-speed shooting function takes 12 frames per section, making it easy to capture crisp images of all kinds of fast-moving events.
