Nikon Z50 II Mirrorless Camera
A powerful yet compact mirrorless system made for rising creators, the Nikon Z50 II Mirrorless Camera combines a 20.9MP APS-C CMOS sensor and an interchangeable lens mount with a host of flagship features and compatibility with the entire NIKKOR Z lens lineup to elevate your content beyond the smartphone.
20.9MP DX-Format CMOS Sensor & EXPEED 7 Image Processor
The DX-format 20.9MP CMOS sensor is paired with the same EXPEED 7 image-processing engine found in its flagship, full-frame brethren to provide a versatile mixture of high sensitivity, nuanced image quality, fast, AI-powered autofocus, and full-resolution continuous shooting up to 30 fps. At native values, a sensitivity range from ISO 100-51200 permits working in a broad array of lighting conditions and can be further expanded up to ISO 204800 for extreme low-light conditions. The combination of resolution and sensor size also contributes to clean image quality and smooth color transitions with reduced noise throughout the sensitivity range.
Nikon's Most Advanced Autofocus
Using inherited algorithms and deep learning technology from the Z9, including sophisticated Subject Detection for nine different subject types, the Z50 II can recognize a variety of distinct subject types, ranging from humans to animals to airplanes to bicycles. The popular dedicated Bird Detection mode is also featured. When working in Auto-Area AF, these subjects will automatically be detected, focused on, and tracked to ensure sharp focus when the subject is moving across the frame.
Eye-Detection AF, specifically, has been tuned for improved accuracy and refined recognition of eyes in the scene and can also be used in conjunction with custom Wide-Area AF for different subject shapes and sizes.
Pre-Release Capture
The EXPEED 7 processor also unlocks Pre-Release Capture, a feature that helps make decisive moment shots easier by recording frames in a burst for up to a second prior to actually releasing the shutter. When this feature is activated, burst shooting will commence when the shutter is half-pressed, and the buffer will retain the frames after fully pressing the shutter.
UHD 4K Video Recording
- A large 3.2" LCD touchscreen is available for bright, clear, and vivid image playback and live view shooting. The screen has a 180° flip-under tilting design, which benefits front-facing selfie captures, and offers more intuitive operation, navigation, and settings control. The upgraded touchscreen now features the Touch FN option, which allows you to select the focus point with your fingertips.
- The improved electronic viewfinder was redesigned for increased comfort in eye-level viewing. Using NIKKOR optics to guarantee a sharp, clear image, it is now twice as bright as its predecessor.
- A built-in flash and a hot shoe allow you to introduce additional light into low-lit scenes, with a dedicated Night Portrait mode that optimizes a balanced exposure with available and additional light.
- A headphone jack has been added, doubling as a terminal for Nikon's newly released and optional MC-DC3 Remote Release Cord, and the USB-C terminal provides both camera charging and USB power delivery. The camera retains the microphone and HDMI ports of its predecessor.
- Built-in SnapBridge connectivity enables seamless transfer of low-resolution imagery as well as remote shooting capabilities. BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) and Wi-Fi enable communication between the camera and a smart device, and the mobile device can remotely trigger the shutter to display a live view image from the camera for working from a distance.
- The included EN-EL25a rechargeable lithium-ion battery extends camera battery life, with in-camera charging also supported.
- Single SD memory card slot supports the UHS-II protocol for quickly storing photo and video files.
