Nikon Z50 DX-Format Mirrorless Camera
Nikon Z50 Firmware Update – The Z50 uses the same Z-lens installation as the larger sensor camera, which means that it can utilize the same range of Z-branded FX lenses, even with the 1, 5x-applied trimmer factor. Along with Z50, Nikon has also launched the first two lenses in a beginner Z-mount DX Lens set, a 16-50mm pancake Zoom, and a 50-250mm super Telephoto Zoom.
Nikon Z50 Design and Features
The Nikon Z50 features an APS-C 20.9-megapixel sensor with a 209 phase-detection AF pixel, expandable range of ISO 100-51200 to 20400, 11fps burst shooting with AF/AE tracking, EXPEED 6 processor, 180-degree touchscreen processor, 180-degree flip-screen, 2360k-dot EVF, 4K UHD video recording with 30p speed, Snapbridge, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity and a body weighing less than 400g.
The Z50 looks very similar to the Z6 or Z7, which is slightly scaled up, with the viewfinder hump protruding from the center of the camera and a large enough grip extending forward from the body, without ever looking like posing as a DSLR.
The Z-mount, which is too large, even for a full-frame format, means the camera is not much smaller than its large sensory brother, but the lack of the top-plate LCD immediately distinguishes it visually.
Nikon Z50 Performance
The Nikon Z50 lets you play in shutter speeds of up to 30 seconds and has a Bulb mode for almost any aperture time, which is good news if you are very interested in night photography. There is an optional extended exposure noise reduction function that can be enabled to filter out the hot pixels that may appear when the very slow shutter speed is used.
D-Lighting is a Nikon dynamic range optimization tool that attempts to squeeze out the full dynamic range of sensors into a JPEG. Lighting D-Active works “on the Fly” before the in-camera processing engine converts RAW image data into JPEG. The available settings are off extra high, high, Normal, and low, plus automatic mode.
