, Discover, Play. Nikon Releases the Z50II Dx-Format Mirrorless Camera.

Nikon is pleased to announce the new Z50II APS-C size/DX-format mirrorless camera. Blending powerful technology inherited from higher-end models with remarkable ease of use, this compact and lightweight Z series camera is a superb all-rounder and a boon for budding content creators. Photos, video, vlogs, live streaming, it’s packed with features that let even first-time camera users step up from a smartphone and discover their best creative self.

Backed by the same EXPEED 7 image processor that powers the flagship Z9 camera, and driven by Nikon’s proprietary deep-learning technology, the Z50II mirrorless camera makes shooting great-looking photos and video effortless. The camera can automatically recognize nine different subject types and intelligently track even fast, unpredictable subject movement. The Z50II also makes composing great shots more enjoyable with the brightest electronic viewfinder (EVF) in its class.1 Built for the real world, the bright EVF provides a clearer view of the details even when shooting in harsh sunlight, dark environments, or changing light conditions.

Creative features that make this such a great camera for content creators include easy-to-use Picture Control presets for styling the look of photos and videos in-camera, and complimentary access to Nikon Imaging Cloud where users can download exclusive Imaging Recipes and colour presets straight to their camera. A dedicated button on the Z50II takes users straight to the Picture Controls: the effects are visible in real time, and it’s easy to cycle through different presets while shooting.

For video, the Z50II is the first Nikon Z camera to include a Product Review mode that’s ideal for vloggers who want to smoothly shift focus to the items they’re showing in the foreground. This is also the first Z camera to include a video self-timer that allows a delay before recording starts. In addition, one cable is all it takes for vloggers and video streamers to connect the Z50II directly to a smart device and go live on the video platform of their choice.
