Key Advantages

The Nikon Z fc offers excellent image resolution with its 20.9MP DX-format sensor. Its EXPEED 6 processor ensures fast operation and superior noise handling. The hybrid autofocus delivers fast, accurate focus tracking for both stills and video. 4K UHD video capability enhances its multimedia versatility. The fully articulating touchscreen facilitates creative shooting angles. Built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth provide seamless connectivity for image transfer and remote shooting.

Limitations

Being a DX-format camera, the Nikon Z fc has a smaller sensor than full-frame models, which may limit dynamic range and low-light performance. The electronic viewfinder, though clear, has a lower resolution than some high-end competitors. It lacks in-body image stabilization, requiring stabilized lenses for shake reduction. Battery life is moderate, necessitating spare batteries for extended use. The retro control dial design may have a learning curve for users accustomed to modern interfaces. Finally, lens selection is narrower compared to DSLR Nikon systems, though growing steadily.
