"At the start of this review, I posed the question as to whether the Nikon Z8 really is just a smaller version of the Z9? The simple answer is that, in almost every practical aspect, that’s exactly what it is. Which means it’s an absolutely sensational camera that can handle almost any photographic task with ease, just for a lot less money (and weight) than before" according to Amateur Photographer review.
"At $3995 the Z8 is not cheap but it’s just under the Z9 flagship and does pretty much everything that one does in a smaller and lighter body. I mean the Sony FX3 retails for $3899, almost the same cost as the Z8 yet it does not have an EVF, doesn’t have the extensive video specs of the Z8 nor does it have a rugged build of the photo features. In fact the FX3 is painful to use as a photo camera. So this shows that the Z8 is a bargain of epic proportions" according to Steve Huff review in 2023.
