What you'll also need
The four things that go in the bag with a Zf.
SanDisk Extreme PRO 128GB SDXC
200MB/s read, 90MB/s write — fast enough for 4K video and deep RAW bursts on any camera here.
The card is the one accessory nobody should cheap out on. A slow card turns a 30fps camera into a 6fps camera the moment the buffer fills.
Spare battery — Nikon EN-EL15c
For Z5 II, Z6 III, Z8, Zf.
The EN-EL15c is excellent, but the Z8 in particular gets through them on a long day.
Lens cleaning kit (blower, pen, microfibre)
Air blower, carbon lens pen, and microfibre cloths. The three things that live in every working camera bag.
Dust on the front element is the most common cause of soft-looking images from a perfectly good lens.
Peak Design Slide Lite strap
Quick-adjust sling strap with anchor links. Swaps between bodies in seconds.
The strap in the box is the first thing most photographers replace. This is the one you buy once.
