👎 Cons

While it supports F-mount NIKKOR lenses, the 24-120mm f/4G ED VR lens included is a specific choice, and users may desire other native Z-mount lenses for optimal mirrorless performance.
The 7 frames per second continuous shooting, while decent for a DSLR, is slower than some dedicated mirrorless cameras on the market.
The dual autofocus system, while versatile, requires switching modes depending on whether the viewfinder or LCD is used.
While it offers 4K UHD, it doesn't specify capabilities for higher resolutions like 6K or 8K, which some modern cameras are beginning to support.
