Technical Service Advisory for users of the Z 7 and Z 6 mirrorless cameras

Thank you for choosing Nikon for your photographic needs.

It has come to our attention that the vibration reduction (VR) function built into some Z 7 and Z 6 mirrorless cameras does not achieve its full potential. We will repair affected cameras free of charge.
