A compact and lightweight body with an ergonomic design inherited from the Z 7 and Z 6 Despite the compact and lightweight body, the camera is easy to operate, with a grip that is formed for a comfortable and secure hold. The Z Mount Advantage: Supports both the NIKKOR Z DX and NIKKOR Z FX formats, so all NIKKOR Z lenses can be used with the Z 50 Equipped with the EXPEED 6 image-processing engine for imaging characteristics similar to those of the Z 7 and Z 6 The EXPEED 6 image-processing engine works with the Nikon DX-format CMOS sensor to achieve the highest standard sensitivity in the class for still-image shooting – ISO 51200. Achieve the sharpest and clearest images and videos even when recorded at high sensitivities, of any Nikon DX-format camera. It's equipped with a total of 20 Creative Picture Controls and Special Effect modes that can be freely applied to achieve a variety of imaging effects and scene modes that enables the capture of beautiful subjects even by beginners. | The first Nikon DX-format camera to be equipped with a CMOS sensor that incorporates focal-plane phase-detection AF pixels The 209 focus points cover approximately 87% of the imaging area horizontally, and approximately 85% vertically. The hybrid AF system uses an algorithm optimized for the DX-format sensor, and focuses by automatically switching between focal-plane phase-detection AF and contrast-detect AF. The Z 50 is equipped with eye-detection AF, which recognizes and focuses on an eye of human subjects, even as they are moving. Eye-detection AF can also be used when NIKKOR F lenses are attached using the FTZ Mount Adapter (optional). Further, the AF system built into the Z 50 makes the camera able to focus better in darker situations when compared to any APS-C size or DX-format mirrorless camera in its class. It can focus automatically in surroundings as dark as -4 EV. The autofocus and auto-exposure continue to function with high-speed continuous shooting at approximately 11 fps | Intuitive operation that allows users to easily express their intent The Z 50 is equipped with a 3.2-inch, approximately 1040k-dot 180 degree tilting TFT touch-sensitive LCD monitor that supports touch operation similar to that of a smartphone. It also offers a new function button for zoom in, zoom out, and help on the touch panel. Equipped with Self-portrait mode designed to facilitate breathtaking recording of selfies as still images or videos. The electronic viewfinder (EVF) not only offers a natural view, but also supports the same operations as the camera monitor, allowing users to adjust a variety of camera settings without taking their eye away from the viewfinder. Especially noteworthy is the fact that the i button and i menu, which allow users to quickly adjust a variety of settings with the press of a button without accessing camera menus, can be used to apply or adjust settings, the effects of which are immediately reflected in the camera monitor or EVF. | Variety of 4K UHD movie-recording functions that expands possibilities for imaging expression The Z 50 supports recording of DX-format based full-frame 4K UHD movies, allowing users to enjoy high-quality videos with a sharper look. In addition, Creative Picture Controls can be applied to suit the user's intent. Further, the camera is equipped with a variety of cinematic movie-recording functions, including a slow-motion movie function and a time-lapse movie function that generates 4K UHD and Full HD time-lapse movies in-camera. Support for the SnapBridge app that allows for immediate sharing of photos and videos via SNSs The Z 50 is also compatible with the SnapBridge app, which can be used to immediately transfer still images and videos recorded with the camera to a smart device. Built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity make sharing a snap.
