Nikon announces Z50 APS-C mirrorless camera

Nikon has announced a new mirrorless interchangeable-lens camera, the Z50. The new model features a 20-megapixel APS-C sensor along with a tilting 3.2-inch monitor and 11 frames-per-second continuous shooting.

With the smaller APS-C sensor, the Z50 is likely to compete with the Sony a6400, Canon EOS M6 Mark II and the Fujifilm X-T30. Like those cameras the Z5 offers 4K 30p video but no in-body image stabilisation.

 

The camera is based around Nikon’s full-frame Z-mount, and it launches alongside two new lenses: the Nikkor Z DX 16-50mm f/3.5-6.3 VR and Nikkor Z DX 50-250mm f/4.5-6.3 VR.

The Z50 is expected to be available in Australia in November 2019. Local pricing has not been announced.
