Overview

The Nikon Z50 is a compact mirrorless digital camera designed with a 20.9-megapixel APS-C (DX-format) CMOS sensor that delivers high-resolution images with low noise levels. It uses Nikon's Z mount, optimized for superior optical performance and faster autofocus speed.

Equipped with the NIKKOR Z DX 16-50mm f/3.5-6.3 VR lens, this kit offers versatile focal length suitable for wide-angle to short telephoto shots, enhanced by Vibration Reduction (VR) technology that compensates for camera shake.

The camera features an EXPEED 6 image processor, which supports 11 frames per second continuous shooting and 4K UHD video recording at up to 30p for high-quality content creation.

Its hybrid autofocus system uses 209 phase-detection points covering approximately 90% of the frame for fast and accurate focusing, including Eye-Detection AF for portrait shooting.

The Z50 offers a 3.2-inch tilting touchscreen LCD for flexible shooting angles and easy menu navigation, complemented by a high-resolution electronic viewfinder for detailed composition.

Connectivity options include Wi-Fi and Bluetooth allowing remote control and seamless image transfer through Nikon’s SnapBridge app, enhancing workflow efficiency for photographers.
