Joe used the Z 6, designed for high ISO action capture in low-light areas of their respective homes, showing the behind the scenes lives of the performers. On location in the remote hills of Nevada for the beauty shots, Joe Utilized the Z 7 and its high resolution 45.7MP sensor, along with studio lighting to freeze the action.

For assignments where you’ve got to shoot a variety of images, the Z series mirrorless cameras provide you with the best of what they’re designed for—Z 6 for capturing the low-light moments on the go when you might need to bump up the ISO, and the Z 7 for action packed portraits that need to be shot in high 45.7MP resolution.
