Nikon Z50 II Mirrorless Camera with 16-50mm f/2.8 VR Lens

The Nikon Z50 II Mirrorless Camera is a compact DX-format system designed for emerging creators who want intuitive handling, cinematic video, and dependable performance in a portable form. Built around a 5.6K oversampling sensor, it delivers rich 4K footage and detailed stills, even in low-light conditions. The camera supports a wide creative workflow, from product review videos and livestreaming to personalised colour styles through Nikon’s Creative Picture Controls.

A dedicated Product Review Mode makes it easy to shift focus between faces and objects, ideal for content creators who frequently showcase items on camera. For livestreamers, the Z50 II offers plug-and-play USB-C connectivity, allowing immediate streaming to platforms like YouTube, Facebook and Twitch without the need for additional capture hardware. The user interface has been refined to provide quick access to commonly used settings, including a live preview of Picture Control effects.

Nikon’s Imaging Recipes and Creative Picture Controls offer 31 stylistic presets, with additional creator-made Recipes accessible via Nikon Imaging Cloud. These can be customised and saved, giving users full control over their visual expression. The improved AF system, powered by the EXPEED 7 engine, detects a wide variety of subjects using deep learning, delivering precise tracking for everything from portraits to fast-moving action. Features like Pre-Release Capture, Rich Tone Portrait, skin softening and high-ISO capabilities further support a wide range of shooting environments.

The NIKKOR Z DX 16-50mm f/2.8 VR is a standard APS-C size/DX-format zoom lens that covers the 16 mm to 50 mm range of focal lengths with a fast constant maximum aperture of f/2.8 throughout the zoom range. It delivers the large, natural bokeh characteristics of the f/2.8 maximum aperture, and offers clear colour rendering with less colour bleed achieved through the superior optical performance of a NIKKOR Z lens, enabling highly artistic imaging expression.

Users can enjoy versatile creative expression, from soft rendering at maximum aperture to sharp, high-resolution rendering of details by closing down the aperture. The built-in lens-shift vibration reduction (VR) mechanism (5.0-stop compensation at the center of the frame equivalent to an increase in shutter speed) effectively reduces the effects of camera shake, even when slower shutter speeds are used in low-light conditions. Despite its fast zoom specifications, this lens combines superior portability and agility with a compact and lightweight design for a total length of approximately 88 mm and a weight of approximately 330g.

Features:

• The fast, constant maximum aperture of f/2.8 throughout the zoom range allows for large, natural bokeh and reduces the effects of camera shake when shooting in low-light conditions.
• Coverage for the 16 mm to 50 mm wide-angle to mid-range of focal lengths supports a wide variety of scenes and subjects.
• A minimum focus distance of 0.15 m at the wide-angle end and 0.25 m at the telephoto end allows users to get extremely close to their subjects for dynamic shots.
• One ED glass and two aspherical lens elements effectively minimise various lens aberrations.
• Equipped with a lens-shift vibration reduction (VR) mechanism with camera-shake compensation equivalent to a 5.0-stop (at the center) increase in shutter speed.
• A total length of approximately 88 mm and a weight of approximately 330 g enable easy hand-held shooting.
• Adoption of a stepping motor (STM) realises quiet autofocusing.
• Optimised for video recording with a design that suppresses focus breathing.
• Functions such as focus mode (M/A), aperture, exposure compensation, or ISO sensitivity can be assigned to the built-in control ring for a smooth operational feel.
• When recording video using the Z50II, Hi-Res Zoom expands the zoom range to the equivalent of 16-100 mm (6.25x zoom) while still maintaining a constant maximum aperture of f/2.8 with no loss in resolution.
• Designed with consideration of dust- and drip-resistance.
