If my subject holds still, I set AUTO, which sets the minimum shutter speed to 1/focal length. If I have a VR lens I set it to Auto Slower, because I can hand-hold at even slower speeds. If snapping people, I set 1/125 as that keeps them sharp. If shooting sports, I set 1/500 as that keeps runners sharp. The EN-EL15c and EN-EL15b Li-ion batteries that are used in the Z 5, Z 6/Z 6II, Z f, Z 7/Z 7II and Z 8 can be charged using the Anker PowerCore+ 26800 PD 45W power bank. You can update any of these modes by changing anything you like about them, then saving the result at MENU > SETUP MENU (wrench icon) > Save user settings > Save to U1 or U2 > Save Settings. As a bonus, full HD can also be recorded in slow motion, at 30 or 25 fps x 4 or 24 fps x5. And not surprisingly, Nikon offers Time-Lapse Movie and an interval timer, too. Although there's no separate input for an external microphone or headset, the camera has a well-rounded feature set for motion. What I didn't like As you'd expect of a modern camera, there's a customizable 'My Menu' tab. This can be manually configured or set to simply show the menu options you used last. If you do decide to choose the options yourself, you can then assign the top-most option to one of the camera's custom buttons, for access while shooting. 'i ' menu (customizable)

Nikon says it's not quite as tough or sealed as Z7 or Z6 to try to scare you into paying more for the Z7 or Z6, but except for a couple of dials which are more comfortable plastic rather than the uncomforta Film & Darkroom Film Clothing Instant Printers & Consumables Ink Jet Printing Canon Ink Jet Printers Ink jet paper Service Plans & More So far, everything Nikon has done seems great, and it really is. However, there is one major issue I noticed from the get-go when handling the Z50, and it is the same thing Nikon engineers plagued the Nikon Z6 and Z7 cameras with – there is no way to get rid of all the overlay information when using the LCD! I don’t understand how Nikon does so many things right only to royally screw up something so basic. When shooting with the Z50 on a tripod, there is no way to turn off information overlay (such as aperture, shutter speed, and ISO), no matter how many times you toggle between different display options. There is no menu in the camera that allows you to change this behavior, so you basically have to live with it. We are now three cameras into the Z line-up, and it is almost hard to believe that Nikon has completely ignored this issue. All that’s needed is a simple firmware update, which we are yet to see.

Manual-focus F, AI , AI'd, AI-s and adapted rangefinder lenses works poorly on the FTZ with no automatic diaphragm control, poor exposure control, poor finder brightness control and no EXIF or in-finder aperture data — and you have to open-and-close the diaphragm manually for precise focus for each shot! The Z 50 adopts function buttons (Fn1 and Fn2) from the Nikon Z6 and Nikon Z 7. It’s possible to change what they control from the Z 50’s Custom controls (shooting) options The new Nikon Z 50 is a small yet capable camera that brings the best of the Nikon Z series to all kinds of creators to discover, share and engage,” said Jay Vannatter, Executive Vice President, Nikon Inc. “The new NIKKOR Z DX lenses expands the Nikon Z series to provide new creative tools for those looking to take their photo and video passions to new heights.” Find the best Nikon mirrorless cameras, or have a look at the best Nikon Z-Mount lenses.

The sample images displayed on the camera and the images and illustrations in the manuals are for expository purposes only.As you can see from the above table, the Nikon Z50 has a lot going for it when compared to its DSLR counterparts. It has a similar sensor as the higher-end Nikon D7500 (which is excellent). It sports the latest and the fastest EXPEED 6 processor. Its autofocus system has more AF points and coverage than any Nikon DSLR, and it has a wide AF detection range of -4 to +19 EV. It has a very fast continuous shooting speed of 11 FPS, and it can shoot high-quality 4K videos with no cropping. It is the smallest camera of the group (although it is just a tad heavier than the plastic Nikon D3500). The Nikon Z50 is better in almost every way when compared to the D3500 and D5600 DSLRs. And being a mirrorless camera, it has some features like Eye AF, Focus Peaking and other useful on-screen information overlays that are not found on any of the above DSLRs.

Nikon Z50 vs Nikon Z6: Price The battery on the Nikon Z50 can be charged either via the provided charger or via the USB port on the side of the camera. I tested this out in the field when traveling, and the charging via the USB port worked out really well. Just make sure that you are not giving too little or too much power via the USB port (I used between 1.5 and 2 amp power). My only complaint with the USB port is that Nikon went with the older USB Type B Micro port instead of the newer USB Type C. With most cameras and accessories switching over to USB Type C, it would be great if Nikon standardized on it for all future camera models.
