AF calculation per second is now treated as a standard to determine the autofocusing capability of a camera.
Nikon Z9 and Z8 have a common AF calculation speed which is 120 frames calculation per second. The same AF speed is being spotted on the Sony Alpha A1 camera, the Sony Alpha A1 camera is also able to do 120 frames AF calculation per second.
The fastest Canon camera (as of May 2023), the Canon R3, is able to do 60 AF calculations per second according to Canon.
Despite the fact that the Canon R3 is able to shoot up to 195 frames per second, it doesn’t mean the sensor is doing autofocus calculations for every frame. The AF calculation speed is only limited to 60 frames and if the camera shoots up to 190 frames per second it means the camera refreshes its autofocus after every 3 to 4 frames at max shooting speed.
Nikon Z8 vs Canon R5
But this is not the case with the Nikon Z8 camera. Even if you are shooting at its max burst speed which is 120 frames per second at 11 megapixels, the sensor is able to refresh and recalculate its AF in every single frame.

Nikon Z8 Press Release
ULTIMATE HYBRID PERFORMANCE. AGILITY WITHOUT COMPROMISE. THIS IS THE NIKON Z 8.
The Perfect Follow-Up to the Z 9. True Successor to D850.
MELVILLE, NY (May 10, 2023) – Today, Nikon Inc. announced the highly anticipated Nikon Z 8, a full frame mirrorless camera made to meet the needs of imaging professionals, serious photographers, videographers and advanced creators. The Z 8 defines the concept of versatile agility, featuring the latest innovations and speed inherited from the flagship mirrorless Z 9, in a lighter, more compact form-factor that’s ready for action in the field, the studio, the ceremony, the street or on-set.
The Z 8 is packed with massive technology and user-focused features, providing impressive high-resolution images and video up to 8K 60p with overwhelming detail, sharpness and precise color. Engineered to be nimble, it’s approximately 30% smaller than the Nikon Z 9, and 15% smaller than the venerable Nikon D850 to which it is the true successor. As the final word in workflow efficiency, the Z 8 gives professionals the confidence to capture without boundaries while yielding stellar files and uncompromising Nikon color science that can minimize time needed for post-production or editing.
“We continue to rapidly expand the entire mirrorless ecosystem to support users, and with every Z series camera added to the line, the advantages of the next-generation Z mount become clearly apparent,” said Jay Vannatter, Executive Vice President, Nikon Inc. “As Nikon continues to roll out more Z series cameras and NIKKOR Z lenses, we push forward and continue to break new ground in optical and technological innovation.”
Ready for Action
Like the flagship Nikon Z 9, the Z 8 is at the industry apex of speed and versatility. At its core, Nikon’s powerful EXPEED 7 image processing engine has been combined with the proven full-frame (FX-format) 45.7-megapixel BSI stacked sensor with a scan rate so fast that no mechanical shutter is needed. This configuration can be completely silent and has virtually no rolling shutter distortion, while the removal of moving parts reduces wear and tear. Other favorite flagship features include the truly blackout-free Real-live viewfinder, internal 12-bit RAW video recording in a variety of formats and frame rates, along with additional new features for portrait photographers.
The Z 8 brings together speed and precision like no other, embracing the extremes to create a camera that can focus in candlelight during a first dance, yet is fast enough to freeze a falcon in flight. Like the Z 9, this new camera uses Nikon’s most powerful and precise AF system, which has been developed with deep learning technology. The focus is immediately responsive and reliable, offering a range of functions from fully Auto-Area AF, Nikon’s acclaimed 3D tracking and a fully customizable Wide Area AF. These modes take advantage of the enhanced Subject Detection capability for photo and video that recognizes humans, pets, birds, trains, cars, motorbikes and bicycles, and now various types of airplanes.
Ready for Production
The Z 8 is an extremely capable video camera for a diverse mix of productions, enhancing the process from capture to post by providing cleaner files from a variety of frame rates and resolutions. Because of its reduced body size and internal recording, it’s ideal for gimbal use, but also suitable as an A-cam for extended events and weddings, corporate clients, documentaries or even independent cinema. Benefits don’t stop at image quality, as users will appreciate the Nikon colors and consideration for the modern multimedia professional’s workflow.
- Experience the intense resolution and freedom provided by 8K60p (N-RAW) and 8K30p video capture, and the ability that this massive resolution gives in post to crop and pan. Expansive 4K UHD video options for when the look you’re going for is anywhere from cinematic to slow motion, ranging from oversampled1 24p/30p, all the way to 120p with sound.
- The Z 8 can record up to approx. 125 min. in 4K UHD/60p1 and up to approx. 90 min. in 8K UHD/30p2
- Internal 12-bit RAW footage can be captured as ProRes RAW 4K60p, or up to 8K60p in N-RAW, Nikon’s RAW video format that is approximately a 50% smaller file size. N-RAW also creates a 1080p proxy file for easier editing. Capturing RAW footage allows for the most image data and highest bit rate for maximum range and flexibility.
- For more latitude with color, footage can be captured internally in 10-bit ProRes 4:2:2 HQ, while other profile options are available in-camera, including an enhanced N-Log, HLG as well as the easily gradable Flat color profile.
- The camera features two USB-C ports which are dedicated to charging (PD) and communication for accessories, further opening options for a truly modular configuration to fit any production. It also utilizes a full-size HDMI, minimizing the use of adaptors.
- The camera focuses on videographer centric features, including those added to the Z 9 in subsequent firmware updates. These include Hi-res zoom3 function for 4K, highly visible red REC Frame Indicator, focus peaking, zebras, waveform, linear focus capability on many NIKKOR Z lenses, fine ISO control, Customizable AF speed tracking, timecode sync4, 24-bit stereo audio and more.
Ready to Capture the Impossible
The Z 8 enables users with a powerful combination of the latest hardware and curated features implemented to help make the most challenging creative vision a reality.
- The 45.7-megapixel stacked CMOS sensor combined with the EXPEED 7 Imaging engine can render incredible image quality, stellar colors, fantastic dynamic range and high-speed calculations up to 120 cycles, even in low light with minimal noise.
- Users now have the option to shoot in a 10-bit HEIF image file, a superior file format to JPEG that is approximately equal in size yet offers approximately one billion more colors.
- 14-bit RAW image file formats include the proven high-efficiency RAW format, plus a new HLG RAW option for use on compatible devices.
- The Z 8 features settings specifically for portrait photographers, including the Portrait Impression Balance function for precise control of skin tone accuracy, in addition to a new Skin Softening function and improved white balance.
- Burst speeds range from 20 fps full res RAW+JPEG, 30 fps full-res JPEG, 60 fps DX-format JPEG, or up to 120 fps as 11 mp JPEG with High-speed frame capture +. Pre-Release Capture5 is also available to capture the moment in the camera’s buffer before the shutter is even depressed fully.
- Get a wide and bright view with the truly blackout free Quad-VGA viewfinder, which provides a clear picture, especially when shooting at 120 fps. The same 3.2” horizontal and vertical tilting 4-axis touchscreen LCD from the Z 9 is also used, enabling creative composition from any angle.
- Vibration Reduction image stabilization has been enhanced with Synchro VR to achieve up to 6.0 stops of compensation with compatible lenses.6
- Upcoming features will be added in planned firmware updates, including an Auto Capture function, which will allow a photographer to automatically trigger a remote camera on user-set parameters. An update will also allow for the base ISO to be extended down to 200 when shooting video footage with N-Log enabled.
Ready to Impress
Like all pro-caliber Nikon cameras, the Z 8 has a robust build quality, further reinforcing the company’s ethos of usability and reliability as a paramount consideration. When asking professionals why they choose Nikon, ergonomics and reliability are always top answers.
- The Z 8 is fully sealed and gasketed, exceeding the durability of the D850 and built with maximum consideration for dust and drip resistance, while it can also be operated down to -10°C/14°F. Materials including a new pro-grade carbon fiber composite and magnesium alloy are used in the construction to reduce weight and enhance durability.
- Exceptional handling with thoughtfully laid out functions and buttons that are customizable.
- To resist dust, the optical filter includes a dual coating to repel dust in front of the sensor, in addition to a sensor shield that protects the sensor when the camera is turned off.
- The Z 8 makes it easier to capture in low light environments, with illuminated buttons, warm display color option, low viewfinder brightness adjustments, and Starlight View which enables focusing down to -9 EV.7
- Dual card slots with one CF Express Type B / XQD and SD balance speed and widespread availability.
- The MB-N12 battery grip will be an optional accessory that provides approximately 1.8x more battery life8, while adding a vertical grip and vertical shutter button /controls. The grip is also weather resistant to the same level as the camera and allows for hot-swapping batteries.

Nikon Z8 vs Canon R5 – Let’s compare the Nikon Z8 with Canon R5 – Nikon Z8 is a newly announced camera and features almost the same core specification that we have seen in the Nikon Z9, its better to say its a mini Nikon Z9. Due to its very competitive price range, the camera comes in direct competition with Canon’s most popular Canon R5 Camera. So, let’s start the comparison
10 Major Differences between Nikon Z8 vs Canon R5
We are here talking about the Major difference between the two and not about the similar features
1. Nikon Z8 without shutter
The Nikon Z8 camera completely eliminates the shutter, just like the Nikon Z9, but it is a welcome step since Nikon is using a stacked CMOS sensor with a readout speed of 3.7 milliseconds. Even if they eliminate the mechanical shutter from their camera, there will be no visible rolling shutter effect at high speeds.

2. Nikon 45 MP Stacked vs Canon 45MP FSI
Both cameras feature a 45-megapixel full frame sensor but the core difference exists between their technology, Nikon camera uses the same sensor that Nikon first introduced in the Nikon Z9. The 45 Megapixel Stacked CMOS Sensor and due to the presence of stacked CMOS tech, the read-out speed of the Nikon Z8 camera sensor is 3.7ms which is way too fast compared to the sensor of Canon R5 with 16.7ms read out the speed.
Undoubtedly, one of the biggest advantages of the Nikon Z8 camera is the STACKED CMOS sensor used inside it. If you are shooting fast-moving subjects such as wildlife, sports, racing cars, or flying birds while tracking them at high speeds, there is a very low probability that the camera will capture the rolling shutter effect as badly as the Canon R5. The readout speed of R5 is 16.7ms which can result in some bad rolling shutter effects at the fastest shooting speed. Therefore, if you are into sports and wildlife photography and interested in shooting fast-moving subjects, the Nikon Z8 would be a better choice. However, if you are not interested in Nikon cameras, it’s better to go with the Canon R3 which has a stacked CMOS sensor, instead of the Canon R5.

3. AUTOFOCUS
Let’s start with the autofocusing system and the calculations done by the camera per second for focus accuracy. The Nikon Z9 sensor, which is now being used inside the Nikon Z8 camera, has a speed of 120 calculations per second. Now, if you pick Canon’s fastest camera, the Canon R3, the camera is limited to 60 calculations per second. However, the calculation speed per second of the Canon R5 camera isn’t clear since the camera uses a front-side illuminated sensor. Therefore, the calculation speed of the R5 is expected to be inferior compared to the Canon R3.

Burst speed of both cameras. The MAX continuous shooting speed aka Brust speed of the Canon R5 is limited to 20 frames per second when using the electronic shutter and while using the mechanical shutter, it is limited to 12 frames per second. The mechanical shutter is recommended for those who do not want any kind of rolling shutter effect in their camera.
The MAX shooting speed of the Nikon Z8 camera reaches up to 120 frames per second but is limited to an 11-megapixel resolution. If you want to have a maximum speed at full resolution, then the camera allows you to shoot up to 30 frames per second in JPG mode. And if you like to shoot RAW images, then the camera limits you to 20 frames per second.
Best camera for Sports and Wildlife photography – if you want to track and shoot a moving subject like a flying bird, in that scenario Nikon z8 is more suitable for you due to its nature of construction. The Nikon Z8 camera allows you to use burst speed of up to 30 frames per second at full resolution and a maximum speed of up to 120 FPS when you are using 11 MP images. So technically, if we compare the specs of both cameras and the type of sensor technology used inside, the Nikon z8 camera is advanced compared to the Canon R5. WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND NIKON Z8 CAMERA for sports and wildlife. And if you do not want to go with a Nikon camera, as I said earlier, go with the Canon r3.

I like the Way the Nikon Z8 camera pushes the BASE ISO 1 stop more than of the Canon R5, resulting in a better Dynamic range. Which is highly essential for High Resolution based camera like this.
Nikon Z8 and Nikon Z9 Sensor are the same | Hence we have selected the sensor of Nikon Z9 against the Canon R5. Let’s do a high-ISO image comparison between the two
As you can notice the difference in the ISO range of both the camera. The Canon R5 has a more extended (HIGH) ISO range and with Nikon Z8 you can push the ISO up to 32.
5. HIGH ISO TEST between CANON R5 and NIKON Z8
At ISO A6400 you can clearly see the capturing ability of the Nikon Z8 Stacked CMOS sensor, The Canon R5 camera image file looks slightly faded when compared to the Nikon Z8/Z9 45 MP stacked CMOS sensor
6. Best Camera for Video
As we know, the Nikon z8 camera is able to shoot 8K videos up to 30 frames per second, and the Canon r5 has the same capability. But the biggest advantage of the Nikon z8 is that you are able to record 8K videos in Apple ProRes 422 high-quality mode
The overheating issue of the Canon R5 camera is very well-known to us without a doubt, and that’s why we have included it in this comparison despite the massive effort done by Canon with firmware updates. The issue remains unresolved, and the camera tends to overheat quickly if used in hot and humid weather conditions and when recording at high settings such as 4K high-quality mode.
Both cameras are capable of recording 4K videos up to 120 frames per second and offer 8K 12-bit RAW video recording. Both of them also perform oversampling when creating 4K videos. However, if you select the Canon R5 high-quality aka oversampling mode, it may overheat quickly. In such cases, it is highly recommended to select the standard mode, where the camera uses pixel binning or line-skipping technology to create the 4K video.

7. Image Stabilization System
Image stabilization of Canon is always better since R5 features IBIS up to 8 stops. However, remember that the 8th stops of image stabilization is not always effective on all the lenses you use with the R5. In the Nikon Z8, we have 5-axis stabilization up to 6 stops, so when comparing the two for handheld shooting, the Canon R5 is more recommended.
But at the same time, if you are a handheld wildlife photographer or sports shooter, then instead of giving priority to the sensor’s shift image stabilization system’s extra 3 stops, you have to give priority to the stacked CMOS sensor with 5 to 6x faster readout speed.
If you are a fashion and portrait photographer, then having 8 Stops IBIS will help you more for getting ur perfect shot. So, if all depends on your shooting style, preference, requirements, and budget.
8. Display and Electronic View-finder
The electronic viewfinder of Canon r5 is really very impressive with 5.76 million dots resolution. Nikon’s camera is using a 3.69 million electronic viewfinder, which is not recommended for a professional camera like this.
But at the same time, Nikon claims that the Nikon z8 camera’s viewfinder is one of the brightest in the market, with a 3000 nits display unit and 60Hz refresh rate.
The display screen resolution of both cameras is almost the same, and both cameras have a vari- angle display screen for compositional freedom.
9. Design tidbits
The Z8 and the R5 are very robust cameras and build like a tank by DSLR makers, with weather sealing and a mag alloy frame. The dimensions are very similar, but the Nikon is slightly heavier.

Each camera has its own button layout and controls, but both of them are very simplified and easy to use. Both cameras can cover the sensor when powered off to protect it. While the R5 uses the curtains of the mechanical shutter, the Z8 has a mechanism design only for this purpose, which should also be more robust.
10. Cards and interface
The Z8 works with two cards, and they are both the CFexpress Type B standard. The R5 also has two slots, but one for CFexpress cards and one for SD UHS-II cards. Both cameras have USB Type C, microphone input, headphone output and HDMI socket. (in R5 we have mini and in Z8 we have full size)

Good News: RED Loses Battle Against Nikon, Back in MAY 2022 RED sued Nikon for infringing its video compression patents. This happened just after when Nikon added an internal lossless video compression update to the Nikon Z9 camera with a firmware 2.0
And the most interesting part was red sued Nikon, based on their patent(s) and not on any Existential technology, on the other side Nikon has implemented a similar kind of technology to the Nikon Z9 camera For recording RAW videos internally.
Now in September 2022, Nikon challenged back and started its own set of legal proceedings against RED. But today news arrived from petapixel, that the case has been dismissed against Nikon by the court as per rule 41.
And the most interesting part is this according to rule 41 the case was dismissed on a kind of agreement by both parties, they mutually agreed to dissolve the case and that’s why the case has been dismissed and RED lost the battle intentionally without having a proper fight with Nikon
Maybe Nikon has paid a good amount of money to buy the license fees OR they have paid some remuneration fees for the loss, its not very clear since none of them are coming in public to address this specific issue.
