The Nikon Z6 III is our best-rated camera of 2024 - and it just got its first price cut
Don't miss this incredible deal ahead of Black Friday
There's big news in the camera deals world today, folks - the excellent (and new) Nikon Z6 III has just received its first-ever discount. Right now, you can get this fantastic hybrid mirrorless camera for just $2,299 (it was $2,499) at Adorama and other leading retailers.
Editor's note: we originally posted this article as a US-only deal but several UK retailers have also just reduced the body down to just £2,499 (was £2,699)!
The Nikon Z6 III melds an incredibly compelling price with cutting edge features like the world's first partially stacked sensor and vastly improved autofocus. For both stills and video it's a superb choice currently - not least because it's capable of extremely rapid burst rates and 6K video at a price point that's unparalleled. There's a reason why we've ranked the Nikon Z6 III at the very top of our best mirrorless cameras list as the best all-rounder right now.
So, If you're on the hunt for a next-gen camera upgrade for your flagging Z6 Mark 1 or even a DSLR, then do yourself a favor and check out this deal ahead of Black Friday next month. Note that you can also find this deal at B&H Photo and the official Nikon USA site for the same price.

Should you wait until Black Friday?
Honestly, probably not - but it's up to you. As a deals editor at TechRadar, I'd say this one is unlikely to go any lower over Black Friday since it's already a pretty significant discount for a brand new body. At best, I think it will likely be the same price over Black Friday, so there's an argument for both buying early and simply being patient.
If you want a camera now, then by all means, pick this one up. One thing I will say, however, is that this year's Black Friday camera deals will likely have plenty of options for other models. For example, the Nikon Z8, Z7 II, and older Z6 II are all likely to be back down to record-low prices, which could be good options depending on your needs. We'll also have good deals for Sony and Canon bodies too, should you want to consider over brands.
