Review on Nikon Z50 + Z DX 16-50mm Mirrorless Camera Kit: Advanced AF, 4K UHD Movies, High Res LCD - VOA050K001 by Amar Amar ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A nice option for the money, one of the best deals.

The camera is wonderful compared to the younger DX format cameras, I would say that it is at the level of the D7500 or even a little higher, only more compact, but this does not prevent it from lying perfectly in the hand. The Z50, in comparison with the D5x00, has clearly less noise and they are kind of softer and not so conspicuous under equal shooting conditions, you also feel an increase in the dynamic range at ISO 400 and higher, which also has a good effect on the result. In addition, the Z50 determines the white balance much more accurately and what is important, autofocus works more accurately, including in low light, this moment was specially checked with a "dark" telephoto lens, it was also possible to test tracking autofocus with face and eye tracking, from more than 200 shots taken in short bursts, there are only 4 defective ones, despite the fact that the weather was cloudy and the telephoto was dark. I really liked the viewfinder, it is very informative and the picture in it is nicer than in younger DSLRs. In addition, there are nice bonuses such as fine-tuning autofocus and AutoFP, the D3x00 and D5x00 unfortunately do not have these features. With the FTZ adapter, all the old AF-S Nikkor lenses worked without any problems, even AF adjustment was not required. There are a couple of drawbacks, though not very significant for me, this is the battery life and the need to purchase a new remote control, the old wired one from 5x00, alas, will not work. As for the whale lens 16-50 . This pancake is second only to the top-end AF-S DX NIKKOR 16-80MM F / 2.8-4E, and then only in aperture ratio, otherwise this whale lens is obscenely good, 50-250 is also quite a decent lens

Pros
  • Picture quality, convenience, functionality, price.
Cons
  • Battery capacity, but this is a problem with all mirrorless cameras.

Different pros: Not expensive (relatively) Some cons: With a DSLR it’s somehow easier in terms of catching focus at various ISOs
