One of the best camera deals I’ve spotted in the annual Memorial Day sales has to be the excellent Nikon Z7 IIfor just $1,996 (was $2,996) at Adoramatoday. With a massive $1,000 off, I’d challenge anyone to find a better high-resolution full-frame body than this for the price.

For example, you could spring for the equivalentSonyAlpha A7R IV orCanonEOS R5 - both high mega-pixel monsters in their own right - but those would set you back a hefty$2,998or$2,899respectively. Even with healthy price cuts in today’sMemorial Day sales, these worthy competitors are coming in at a much higher premium.

And, for landscapes, portraiture, or product photography, I’d still rate the Nikon Z7II as one of thebest cameras for photographyright now. It doesn’t quite match the Sony’s incredible 61MP resolution, or feature quite the same level of video chops as the Canon, but it’s an extremely capable hybrid camera that’s backed up with a superb range of Z-mount lenses.

With a full $1,000 saving, you could invest in some decent glass to really squeeze out the potential of the Z7 II’s 45.7MP full-frame sensor. A massive range of Z-mount lenses are also on sale todayat Adoramaand B&H Photo so it’s well worth a browse if you’re interested in upgrading.

Nikon Z 7 II:was $2,996now$1,996.95 at AdoramaThe Nikon Z 7II is a great option if you’re primarily a stills photographer who can make use of its superb 45.7MP full-frame sensor. The Z7 II is a relatively modest upgrade versus the predecessor but the dual card slots, improved tracking AF, and internal 4K 60fps video make it a much more versatile camera overall. We’d highly recommend this one as a good option for landscape photographers who want a high-resolution sensor in a lightweight body.

Other recommended deals on Nikon cameras

Nikon Z8:was $3,996 now$3,496.95 at AdoramaWe rate the Nikon Z8 as thebest full-frame hybrid camera for pros- although, of course, anyone with deep pockets will appreciate its superb 45.7MP stacked sensor, 8K video capabilities, and 20fps burst shooting. OurNikon Z8 reviewawarded this excellent camera a full five stars out of five - praising its awesome feature set and smaller and lighter body versus the flagship Z9. This deal at Adorama brings the body down to its lowest-ever price with a huge $500 price cut.

Nikon Z5:was $1,396now$996.95 at AdoramaToday’s record-breaking discount on the Nikon Z5 makes this entry-level body not just one of the cheapest Nikon cameras, but one of the cheapest full-frame cameras on the market full stop. You miss a few bells and whistles with the Z5, namely super-quick burst shooting and uncropped 4K video, but it’s a solid camera for stills thanks to the excellent 24mp full-frame sensor. Solid AF, a rugged body, and full-weather sealing make the Z5 an absolute bargain for those curious about upgrading to a full-frame mirrorless camera. Check out ourNikon Z5 reviewfor more info.

Nikon Z6 II:was $1,996 now$1,496.95 at AdoramaThe Nikon Z6 II might be the best Nikon camera for most people - well, it’s a great all-rounder that’s superb for stills and video,andit’s great value to boot. The original Z6 was already a decent mirrorless flagship but the second iteration brings a second card slot, improved autofocus, and quicker burst shooting modes. While it’s likely due to be replaced soon by a third-gen model, we’d still highly recommend the Z6 II as a capable hybrid camera - especially since today’s $500 price cut brings the body to its lowest ever price.
