Has the Nikon Z8 Replaced Both the D850 and D500? Also Testing theNikon DX Nikkor 35mm 1.8G

Good reminder about the replacement of these 2 wonderful bodies… the issue is that it costs itself more the the 2 others :)

I had this lens. It is sharp but I ended up selling it to a friend of mine who has a D7500. Figured he could et more use out of it than me. Thank you for the fine video Jules.

01:08 I'm not sure if understood you correctly here. But, if price wasn't an issue, all of us would own the Nikon Z9 right?

@@Farbroe The Z8 is smaller and lighter than the Z9 does most things just as well. My point was that the Z8 can replace both a D500 and 850. Thanks for watching and your comments.

There’s no way I’m spending over $3000 for a body.

@@powbobs A lot of people can’t or won’t. There are plenty of great cameras under 3,000. Thanks for watching.

Thanks for the video. I agree with your premise that the z8 replaces both dslrs. i sold my d500, but kept the d850 as it can behave like a mirrorless camera. My z8 is just for birding and so, the long lens remains fixed to it. It is a bit big for walking around ( for me), so i have the z7ii for that. i frankly do not need a d500 replacement as the z8 does it all.

Which long lens are you using on the Z8? Thanks for watching and your comments.
