Pros: Calidad de imagen,nitidez con los objetivos del kit (16-50 y 50-250),buen procesador,ergonomía.poco peso pero bien equilibrada,menus intuitivos. En fin que me encanta esta cámara,la llevo conmigo a todos lados.Buen precio con los kits de 2 objetivos.Adaptador FTZ permite usar objetivos F,

Cons: Carece de entrada para cable disparador,pocos disparos con la batería.Batería original muy cara.Pocos objetivos nativos.

Opinion: Me sorprendió mucho esta cámara y eso que estaba un poco reacio a pasar a mirrorless.Tenía en mente comprar la D500 como sustituta de la D300 que tantas satisfacciones me ha dado,pero siguiendo los consejos del vendedor,amigo de toda la vida,compré esta Z50 y no me he arrepentido para nada. Solo echo en falta más objetivos dedicados,no solo de Nikon sino de fabricantes como Sigma y Tamron. Estos dos fabricantes paracen olvidar que durante mucho tiempo vivieron de fabricar y vender objetivos tanto para Nikon y Canon,ahora poarace que sus prioridades son solo fabricar para Sony.Que conste que yo no tengo nada contra Sony y sus usuarios,me parecen unas cámaras maravillosas,pero toda esta situación me parece un poco injusta. Perdón por la extensión del comentario. Gracias a Juzaphoto por permitirme dar mi opinión. Perdón por escribir en español,pero mi inglés es muy básico y mi italiano también. Juan

Pros: Image quality, built in flash, ...

Cons: Missing 1/8000sec

Opinion: The lowest ISO is 100. The shortest shutter speed is 1/4000. This together is a limiting factor - especially for the people who like talking pictures with open aperture. The touch elements on the display do not really make sense, buttons would be a lot better - especially when you use the viewfinder and fokus manually. The camera is great for using legacy lenses. Some things could be nicer, but nothings prevents from taking great pictures.

Pros: Lightweight, excellent grip, intuitive, image quality, excellent RAW

Cons: Battery (you need at least one other compatible/original), FTZ adapter cost, lack of stabilizer

Opinion: Bought in 2025 on offer for non-professional use, but amateur. With the 16-50 mm supplied, it's like traveling with a compact camera. Currently, at the time of writing the review, it seems that Viltrox is filling the shortage of competitively priced native Z mount lenses. The construction of the body and the controls are excellent for me, even aesthetically the camera body offers an excellent performance. The monitor is very readable, same thing for the viewfinder. The menus are packed with features. Considering that we are talking about a mid-segment mirrorless camera, I can only be satisfied. It's not tropicalized, but for my use it's more than fine. Note: the nikkor Z 50-250 mm once closed, has the bulk of a can of beer (and it is not little) and a non-existent weight.

Pros: Improved autofocus, tilting display

Cons: It lacks a small upper display as for ff, eye accommodation distance of only 19.5 mm. Even lower than that of the FF (view in the viewfinder not optimal for those who wear glasses like me)

Opinion: Brighter right lenses are missing, in particular a 16-80. The right format, for me who uses a D7500, now makes sense only to have a lighter kit, but not at the expense of quality. Nikon claims that having enlarged the bayonet allows you to get more brightness, but then why doesn't it produce brighter compact dx lenses? I would have expected to see an 18-140 f. 2.8-4.5 or a 16-50 f. 2.8-3.5, but instead nothing... At this rate, getting a good bokeh effect becomes difficult,...

Pros: Small and light, but at the same time exceptional quality

Cons: for my uses, none. Thinking about it, the cost of the batteries, but it is not really a defect of the machine

Opinion: I started with photography a year and a half ago. I started from the D200, then D600 but, taking landscape photos in my travels I needed something light and manageable to tackle trekking and climbs without additional weights. The Z50 was the turning point. With its ridiculously light but extraordinarily qualitative 16-50 I solved my problem. Experts will turn up their noses, but I see a difference between mirrorless and reflex. ML shots are more digital (a misnomer, but maybe we understand each other), and since influencers and travel photographers are getting us used to shooting with this system, I feel more comfortable having results closer to the "style of the moment". being interested in landscape photography I am not interested in eye tracking, high FPS, video or other technologies. I just need to shoot in RAW, I can set aperture, time and ISO. The Z50 fulfills my needs perfectly. Another fear I had was about the EVF; actually the electronic viewfinder is good and didn't make me regret the optical viewfinder.
