The Nikon Z50 is Nikon’s first mirrorless APS-C camera. It is meant to compete with cameras like the Sony a6400, Canon M6MKII and the Fuji X-T30. The specs are quite impressive and it’s available with 2 small and light image-stabilized lenses.
I will discuss the new Nikon Z50 20.9MP sensor, processor, and auto focus for both photography and video. I’ll show you #nikonz50 photo and video samples, and we’ll talk about dynamic range and low light performance (night shooting)
We’ll also cover 4k and slow motion video, the flip full touchscreen, ergonomics, battery life, the optional viewfinder, audio options in-body time lapse, interval shooting and a lot of other features.
I’ll also mention some areas where I think Canon can improve.
Finally, we’ll talk about who the #nikon #z50 is for, and what you should expect from a user experience standpoint.

The most thorough reviewI have seen on KZfaq for this camera. I have other Nikon DSLR’s that I use for portrait and action sports shots but this looks perfect for an every day camera and in particular travel camera to take on vacations. You sold me on it. I ordered it today with the 17-50 kit lens and the FTZ adapter which will allow me to use all my other Nikon glass. Thanks for giving such a well thought out and complete review.

Your review is awesome and stands out because of two things: 1. You're the first person to mention the ability to shoot 30 fps by reducing the picture size. Not heard that in ANY other review 2. You're the first person to mention the button on the left side above the screen I watched all kinds of videos about this camera and wanna buy it with the two kit lenses. I've not heard much bad about the Z50 except the screen flipping down but i'm not a vlogger so, yeah. Thank you for your awesome review!

@@TechGearTalk So I really did buy it yesterday and I'm blown away by the quality and functionality. I have to say though, I now upgraded from a Nikon D60 (yeah, no joke) so no matter what, a new camera would be a huge upgrade. But I like to think that it isn't the camera that makes good pictures, it's the person pressing the shutter button. Having lots of features helps getting the pic you want though. In a selfish way, I'd like you to make a video on using the Z 50 especially in video-mode and how to get different results in different situations. So maybe somdeday you'll do a "real world" review of this, in my opinion, awesome camera.

@@4partmedia I can only say positive things. This camera has sparked my love for photography so much. It's a joy to use. I'm happy I bought the two lenses as I prefer to use the 50-250 much more. Didn't thought this would be the case beforehand. But both lenses are awesome and the picture quality is amazing for kit lenses. I'm really happy with this kit and I tend to use it for a very long time before thinking about buying a prime lens. In my opinion you can't go wrong with this camera.

Some other nice things on the Z50 are the following. You can set the f5 menu to on, that way you just press once the FN1/FN2 buttons and then use the front/rear dials to make the change, and press again to set them. You can use the focus ring on the Nikon Z lenses for other purposes, i set it to change the ISO. The camera default in "View settings in Live view" is set to on, that way you can view your exposure and that is a good thing, most of the times. But let's say you're in a studio enviroment and you want to shoot using speedlights at f/8 ISO 100 1/200". In that case with the default setting your screen will be black. There are 3 ways to correct this, the first is to dive into the menus and find it and turn it off ,that way the camera will ignore your settings and show you the view. The second is to assign the setting into the i menu for quick access, but the third is by far the best. If you either pop up the flash, attach an external flash, or attach a flash controller, the Z50 will set the "View settings in live view" to off , when you remove the flash it will set it back on automatically. Picture profiles, noise reduction , even active D-lighting options are somehow "baked" not only in jpeg but in RAW also. You can still edit them out if you like in the RAW file, but i find it very convinient from the Z50 to match perfect the jpeg and RAW outputs.

Thanks for a great detailed review. I am a little late to the Z50 party, got my Z6 ii first replacing my well worn out D750, now I am looking to replace my D500 and was glad there is a mirrorless Z option to move to. Your review really covered all the questions I have. It's weird that the buttons are all in different places on this model but won't be too strange once set up similar to my other body. Thanks for covering the lenses too. I have decided to go with a kit to grab the kit lenses. They will make it much lighter on days I do not need my older and much heavier glass and save my hands and wrists the arthritis agony haha! Thanks again.

Same here, still using my D5000 that I bought when I was in art school. I love it, it has traveled the world, but the autofocus and video is from the last century and so is the size for street photography, travel, candid portraits. APS-C sensors still produce phenomenal results printing to 13x19 and more, but I’m looking at moving from DX glass into investing in Z S-line glass. I hope Nikon sees the feedback from this and invest more thought into the Z line.

This is a great review! I've watch lots of your Canon M50 videos, and after holding both cameras, the Z50 is definitely the ergonomic choice. In 2022 are there any drawbacks to this camera compared to what else has come out? As well, the Canon R10 was just released, and though it's a little higher price point it is very enticing. Is the extra cost worth it? This is buying my first camera but am pretty serious into photography, and want good video options too. Thanks!

I own a D7500 with a Sigma 18-35 Art lens. I got this Z50 while still not sure if it was worth it. After a week with it, I can say that it has better low light performance than my D7500 and also thanks to the improved auto focus I am getting sharper images at night. I can truly say this upgrade was well worth it for me. I will still keep my D7500 because I sometimes shoot when its rainy out and its nice to have a backup as well.

The D7500 is a srtipped down D500 which was the best DX professional camera - many professional photographers working with full frame cameras owned a D500 too, praising it for its sports and wild life capabilities. The D7500 has the same sensor and Expeed 5 processor that the D500 had. What it doesn't have is the supped up focusing system and buffer capacity of the D500. The D7500 is a very good camera by any standard. The mirorless Z50 has the same size sensor as the D500 but it has a much higher ISO apability. It must be a developed / improved sensor.

Excellent video and information on the Nikon Z50... one of the best on KZfaq. For the longest time, I also wondered why some settings I applied in the “i” menu in Movie Mode also applied to Photo Mode. After fiddling with the settings and searching the online manual, I came up with this. Go into the Movie Shooting Menu and make sure “Same as Photo Settings” is NOT selected for any/or all of the following options: Set Picture Control White Balance Active D-Lighting and Vibration Reduction. If “Same as Photo Settings” is selected for the above options, a “small camera icon with circular arrows” will appear at the top left corner of the “i” menu, indicating that the options selected for these settings in photo mode also apply in movie mode, and vice versa. Hope this helps. Many thanks for taking the time to create this amazing video and sharing it with us. P.S. I love my Z50!

Awesome review! Very informative and made me think about features I hadn't thought about before. I just subscribed. I was a Nikon shooter for many years, but eventually sold all my equipment and bought into Fuji X-T4 and several lenses. Although there's lots to like about the Fuji, I find myself missing Nikon. I love the ergonomics on Nikon much better than the Fuji. Some reviews show the autofocus is better on the Z50 than the Fuji cameras as well. I just wish the Z50 had dual card slots and would shoot Log. I also wish Nikon had fast native DX lenses for the Z mount. Maybe they will later. Anyway, thanks for the great review!

Actually, the one you are reviewing, the Z 50. But since I did not had too much money to invest in it, I bought it used in eBay and bought a Meike 50mm f1.7 manual lens for the Z-Mount in Amazon. Now I am practicing with a new camera in manual mode, but having fun learning about it. Thanks for asking!! I like primes, so I am saving for the Nikkor Z 35mm 1.8 S, but it is high in price...

Hey Sangay, I hope that's correct. I'm from Melbourne, Australia. I loved your review on the Z50. I just received my kit today and have done some research so I was enthused by your affirmation of this Nikon camera. It is my first DSLR as I've used a number of compact digital cameras in the past. You have an impressive knowledge of photography and the diversity of camera. I found your review to be a great learning curve for me to explore it's functionality and capabilities. Outstanding presentation. Cheers Keiran

I'm also planning to buy a Nikon 20mm f1.8 G FX lens because I want a fast wide-angle prime.

Oh my goodness, I maybe getting this camera after all. I miss the Nikon goodness. I need a 4K UHD camera, and Sony is not my only. Canon is not all the Cannon for me either. I am about results. 4K UHD is spoiling me on the possibilities. I flip flop more than Congress figuring out where lunch might be sometimes. What doesn't change is my feelings on your videos. Always on point, and always professional. Love your stuff.

You did a better job than most. You took your time and went over the features some of which not mentioned by others and you showed excellent pictures taken and good video to show what the camera is capable of. You talked about the slight short comings like no headphone jack and the flip screen flipping down and you did mention the battery life at 300 shots. Is the battery life with either the lcd or EVF disabled make the battery life better?
@TechGearTalk
@TechGearTalk 3 жыл бұрын
I’m glad you liked the video and that you found it helpful. Definitely turning off the evf and turning down the brightness on the lcd could help - I normally get more than the rating in terms of pictures and I always buy extra third party batteries. Thanks for being part of the channel!

Even though this review is 11 months along it still has value. I am looking at replacing my D3100 (new in 2013) which has over 80,000 shutter count. I want to keep my glass 50, 18~105, 18~55, 55~200 and I mainly shoot dancers so a low light system is a must for me. I have been looking at the Z50 and this video is very helpful. Thanks.
