INNOVATION IN YOUR HANDS

Cleverly laid out touch keys allow you to operate this camera with one hand, even when you’re looking through the electronic viewfinder.

KEEP IT EASY
Forget fumbling with buttons or slippery surfaces. Great on the go, the camera is equipped with an ergonomic grip for a firm grasp and easy reach across the buttons. Form meets function with its cutting-edge aesthetics and design, such as the new mode dial that allows you to easily change shooting modes in a heartbeat. Designed with portability and comfort in mind, the Z 50 features a lightweight body frame that weighs similar to a regular tablet at approximately 450g.
BE OUTSTANDING
Capture your passion with 20.88 million effective megapixels and the EXPEED 6 image-processing engine. Adopting the same hybrid autofocus (AF) system as the Z 7 and the Z 6, the Z 50 comes equipped with one of the first Nikon CMOS sensors that incorporates phase-detection AF. With 2091 AF points covering approximately 87% horizontally and approximately 85% vertically of the frame, easily capture moving objects, even at the periphery. For portrait shots where the clarity of the eyes matter, eye-detection AF is available and allows an intuitive selection of the intended eye focus, even when multiple people are within the frame.
Whether you’re in a low-light environment, or on a night out, an ISO sensitivity of 51200 for stills, and 25600 for videos will ensure your images come out well lit. Express yourself even further with Creative Picture Control, a mode that offers 20 different creative options to make your stills and films more dynamic. Pair the Z 50 with the NIKKOR Z DX 16-50mm f/3.5-6.3 VR or NIKKOR Z DX 50-250mm f/4.5-6.3 VR to effectively reduce camera shake as both lenses come with dual detect optical vibration reduction which means every image will be sharper than ever.
