The Z7 II uses a brand-new Nikon Z mount optimized for Nikon's new Z-mount mirrorless lenses. Get the excellent Nikon Z 24-70mm f/4, or personally I prefer the Z 24-200mm VR for day-to-day use. Either is super sharp, small and compact.
Let's start with the Z7II basics. The Z7II is a 45mp full frame (36x24mm) mirrorless camera. The image sensor itself is the same as in the Z7, and appears to be similar to the one used in the Nikon D850. It's a BSI (backside illumination) Exmor-type design with the addition of phase detect photosite masking embedded in the microlens layer.
Zoom and focus rings also work the same way in Z-dom as they do in D-dom: zoom in with a twist to the right (across the top of the lens), zoom out to the left. So, other than the fact that the mount is bigger and closer to the sensor, the Z7II lens mount and lens attributes are recognizably Nikon to Nikon users.
The Z7 II can run from its EN-EL15c battery, or can be powered indefinitely from the USB-C port, and since the battery can charge from the USB-C port, this opens a world of power options. Most of us, myself included, use USB-C power adapters and we're good.
