Vloggers can now enjoy an amazing variety in imaging expression with the new Nikon Z 50 camera. This is Nikon's first DX-format mirrorless camera which has inherited its operability, design and reliability as a mirrorless system from the original Nikon Z 7 and Nikon Z 6. Their characteristics are condensed and improved to come up with a lightweight, compact and durable body which provides users superior capabilities and powerful expression with each and every shot. Read on for more detailed information.
Product Features in Detail
Compact and Lightweight
Despite Z 50's lightweight and compact body, it is also very user-friendly because it provides a grip that is secure and comfortable to hold, and all controls and operations buttons are positioned for right-handed operation.
EXPEED 6 Image-Processing Engine
This spectacular processing engine works with Nikon's DX-format CMOS sensor. This gives users still-image shooting- ISO 51200 the highest standard sensitivity in its class. Other special features include mid-range sharpening plus quick sharp for Picture Controls, the very same imaging options Z 7 and Z 6 owners enjoy.
CMOS Sensor
The Z 50's AF system allows the camera to focus better even in low light compared to any other DX-format mirrorless camera. Meanwhile, the auto-exposure and autofocus continue to function in high-speed continuous shooting at 11 fps. The hybrid AF system's algorithm optimizes the DX-format sensor and focuses by switching automatically between focal-plane phase-detection AF and contrast-detect AF.
Rich Variety of Lenses Available
Nikon’s Z mount system supports both the NIKKOR Z FX and NIKKOR Z DX formats. This means all NIKKOR lenses , including NIKKOR Z DX 50-250mm F/4.5-6.3 VR and NIKKOR Z DX 16-5-mm f/3.5-6.3 VR lenses that were released at the same time, can also be used with the Z 50. Even the S-Line lenses which have proven outstanding optical performance can be utilized.
Intuitive Operation
The Nikon Z 50 is fully equipped with a 3.2-inch, 1040k-dot tilting TFT. This touch-sensitive LCD monitor can support touch operation just like that of a smartphone. It has a new function button for zooming in and out and another help function using the touch panel. The electronic viewfinder offers a natural view and also supports the same operations as a camera monitor. This lets users adjust various camera settings without taking their eyes off the viewfinder.
Self-Portrait Mode
The tilting monitor is adjustable for various angles, which makes selfies and video recording a breeze. Enabling the Self-Portrait mode will lock operational buttons and controls except for the shutter-release button to prevent accidental misoperation and give users a firm grip on the camera.
Spectacular Imaging Expression
The Nikon Z 50 supports the recording of the DX-format based full-frame 4K UHD films. This lets users enjoy sharper, high-quality videos. Furthermore, Creative Picture Controls enables unique imaging expression which can be applied with movie recording that will best suit one's creative intent or preference.
Supports SnapBridge App
The Z 50's compatibility with the SnapBridge app allows immediate sharing of still images and videos via social media.
With DX 16-50mm f/3.5-6.3 VR Standard Zoom Lens
This incredibly compact and lightweight lens measures approximately 32 mm in length and weighs around 135 g. It can also support convenient zoom ranges beginning at 16mm and ending at 50 mm. This makes it the perfect choice for recording various scenes such as snapshots, landscapes, portraits and close-ups with a minimum focus distance of 0.2 m for both movies and still images. The lens has an optical vibration reduction (VR) mechanism demonstrating an outstanding blur-reduction effect. It also has a camera shake compensation equivalent of a 4.5-stop increase in its shutter speed.
With DX 50-250mm f/4.5-6.3 VR Lens
The NIKKOR Z DX 50-250mm f/4.5-6.3 VR is capable of shooting massive scene varieties because of its broad range of telephoto focal lengths. Candid portraits to subjects way off in the distance is no longer a problem with this spectacular lens. Users can also use its compression effect to focus on subjects as close as 0.5m at the wide-angle position. This will significantly expand the possibilities of better image expression.
