Nikon Z50II with 16-50mm and 50-250mm Two Lens Kit, Mirrorless Digital Camera Kit - Black

This camera does not disappoint! It’s lightweight but definitely not a lightweight! This delivers very crisp and vibrant images. Great for beginners and intermediate photographers.

This camera has been a great upgrade from my nikon d3400! I wanted to upgrade to a mirrorless camera to use for photography of my children and family for all of our adventures and every day life. This camera has been a great addition. I wanted a full frame camera but couldn't justify the cost for family pictures, but I am still happy with this. I use an F mount adapter to use my old lenses and the quality of pictures is still sharp. The kit lenses are okay, but the upgraded lenses from my dslr are still better quality. The color of images seem accurate. It has taken some getting used to when using manual mode, but once you figure it out, it's quick and easy to make adjustments.

Excellent camera and very functional lenses.

What a fantastic camera! The Nikon Z50 II mirrorless camera is feature-packed and does a superb job, whether taking still photos or video. This combo pack of the body with 2 Nikon lenses is ideal for most casual photographers as well as dyed-in-the-wool professionals. There are far too many features to discuss in this short review, but a few noteworthy items: 1. There is an LED screen that can be flipped around and tucked against the body so that you can view exactly what is being shot (again, still or video). Of course, use of the screen saps up energy so you will wind up having to change batteries more often than if you use only the standard viewfinder. 2. The image stabilization works well. This is of particular use for me as I am a senior citizen with unsteady hands! 3. One battery is provided in this kit, and one battery is not enough. I purchased two additional batteries made by SmallRig (EN-EL25 USB-C) as well as the battery charger from SmallRig. 4. Nikon provide an extensive, 890+ page manual online but only a starter guide in the kit. My recommendation is to purchase David Busch's "Nikon Z50 II Guide to Digital Photography". This 385+ page book is well worth the cost as there is so much to learn about effectively utilizing all of the Nikon Z50 II's features.

The digital camera that I have been using for about 20 years is a Nikon 1 version 3. It had the advantage of being tiny and lightweight, although I have large hands so I always used it with an attached side grip and an optional electronic viewfinder. I have been quite satisfied with it but thought that the kit deal with two lenses and the Z50 II was very reasonably priced and after watching a lot of video reviews, I decided I finally should upgrade. So far, although I've only had the camera for a couple of weeks and it has been rainy, so I haven't taken it outside (it certainly makes no pretention of being waterproof), I've taken shots in low light around the house and I am very favorably impressed with the ISO range, JPEG color options, and photo capability and quality of the body and lenses. I'm not wealthy enough to confidently carry around a larger Nikon Z (like the Z8 or Z9), but although it is a bit larger and heavier than my Nikon 1 vers. 3, the Z50 II fits my hands and represents a much-needed upgrade with which I am totally happy.
