Who it's for
The Nikon Z50 II is a 20.9MP APS-C mirrorless camera, well suited to vlogging and hybrid shooting. Here's where it fits and what to keep in mind.
Best for
- ✓Video and filmmaking — 4K up to 60p, 10-bit internal and Log.
- ✓Vlogging and handheld video — flip-out screen and a mic input.
Keep in mind
- !No in-body stabilisation — you'll lean on stabilised lenses for slow handheld shots.
- !Single card slot — no in-camera backup, which matters for critical paid jobs.
