Product details

Create everlasting memories with a mirrorless camera that fits securely in your hand. Brilliant colours even in low light. A familiar pose from a new angle.
Shadow play in high sun. Take brilliant photos and stunning movies with the lightweight and flexible Nikon Z 50 mirrorless camera. The camera is fast, powerful and easy to use. The large diameter of the Nikon Z bayonet allows the 20.9 megapixel DX-format sensor to capture more light at every angle of the frame. And more light means more detail. Day or night, the colors in photos and movies are more brilliant. They capture more depth. The sharpness is breathtaking. You'll succeed in perfectly focused photos and 4K movies. Hybrid autofocus is fast, accurate, and works extremely smoothly. The AF points on the sensor cover 90% of the frame horizontally and vertically (approx.) - for consistently sharp shots. The focus detects subjects in the centre as well as at the edge of the frame and even follows subjects in motion. With an ISO range of 100-51 200 and low-light autofocus, you can shoot handheld day or night. Whether shooting street subjects at night or portraits in low light, the Z 50 lets you capture more detail than ever before.

Now you can take even more natural portraits. Intelligent Eye AF focuses on the subject's eyes - even in a crowd. Even with people in motion, focus is reliably tracked. The Nikon Z 50 focuses quietly and features silent shutter release. So you can shoot anywhere without being disturbed. Shooting movies is a breeze with the Nikon Z 50. Record movies in 4K/UHD at 30p and slow-motion sequences in Full HD. Use the full width of the DX-format sensor without cropping. You can also shoot stills while you film and create impressive 4K slow-motion sequences right in-camera. The ultra-sharp Electronic Viewfinder (EVF) lets you see everything clearly, whether you're shooting or filming. You can view the image in the EVF as naturally as in the optical viewfinder of a D-SLR. Or you can choose a display that already takes the selected settings into account in the preview. The display always remains blur-free, even when magnified to check focus.

Deshalb sind sie vor allem bei Einsteigerinnen und Einsteigern sehr beliebt, die erstmals mit einer Systemkamera fotografieren und filmen möchten. Schaut man sich in der Preiskategorie bis rund 1000 Euro um, findet man etliche Kameras mit APS-C-Sensor...

Spiegel TestsDigitalkameras für Einsteiger im TestReleaseJuly 2024

Nikons »Z«-Serie umfasst mehrere Kameras mit den Sensorgrößen APS-C und Vollformat. Die günstige Z50 hat den kleineren APS-C-Sensor – lehnt sich aber an die »großen« Profimodelle an: sowohl optisch als auch hinsichtlich der Bedienung. Sie sieht unspektakulär aus, liegt aber gut und sicher in der Hand...
