Professional photographer for 42 years, with a PhD in media and graphic design, and owning an IT company for 15 years. Do yourself a favor and ignore this "expert's" opinion. The Z 50 II is a fantastic, little, affordable powerhouse of a camera system and is extremely capable. You could spend $170 on a Viltrox 56mm f/1.7 lens and could show up as a wedding photographer, if you like. The kit zoom lens, 50-250mm, makes you a landscape/bird photographer with a full-frame equivalent of 75-375mm and has sharp pictures across the range for 250 bucks, with image stabilization. The only thing holding it back for serious professional use would be the lack of a second SD slot for backup; that's it. Using it with a Nikon Nikkor Z 180-600mm gives you basically a 900mm range; with a teleconverter, a 1260mm range. But what do I know?
I think you're unfair whit this camera. You complain about the fact that it doesn't get stabilization with 3rd party lenses : well DUH, they don't have optical stabilizers in them like the NIkon DX lenses do (not the 24mm f/1.7). It's not the camera limiting 3rd party lenses, it's simply 3rd party lenses not baving a stabilizer. At this pricpont, unless you step into micro four thirds cameras, absolutely no one has IBIS. Not Sony with the A6400, not Canon with the R10, not Fuji with the X-M5 and subsequently, not Nikon with the Z50. This is par for the course for a sub 1k camera. Second thing, you complain about the 4K60 crop, but that's very par for the course (again) in this kind of price range. The only camera in this price that will have no crop in 4K60 is the X-M5, but that camera lacks a viewfinder, has worse AF, etc. The X-S20 is the same story and it's $1300. Only the A6700 will give you good uncropped 4K60 with good AF (for $1400), as even the EOS R7 ($1500) need to go in a "soft" line skipped mode to do uncropped 4K60, otherwise it also has a crop. Rolling shutter is also on par with competitors, it's basically on par with the IMX 571 sensor used in both the X-M5/S20 and A6700 for scan rate. It's not better, but it's not worse either. No APS-C camera short of the X-H2S really have fast scan rates that can eliminate rolling shutter the way the Z8 (or the way Sony cameras with teh full frame 12MP sensor : A7SIII, ZVE1, FX3, or any otehr camera with a stacked sensor) does Also, pretty much EVERY camera at this pricpont (or even higher) has a micro HDMI port. Even the $2500 Canon R6 mark II still uses a micro HDMI port. Mini HDMI is straight up a rarity at this point, you either get micro or full size nowadays. In my opinion Nikon really only wanted to make a follow-up to the Z50, not an evolution of it. If you add IBIS, if you add the bigger battery... you enter another kind of price bracket entire, and I think Nikon is cooking up another camera (maybe called a Z70? To finally take after the D7000 line like the Z50 takes after the D5000 DSLR line?) that would release in a similar kind of procepoint as the A6400, X-S20 and EOS R7. But of course, this camera isn't out here yet, and it is not the kind of expectations that should be put in the Z50II either. You mentionned the Canon R50 as being a "better option". Well, the R50 has all the problems you mentionned about the Z50II, because it's similar. But it also has a shit ass battery life, a worse EVF, similar AF, piss poor burst performance (shoots 12fps but can hold 6 RAW files in the buffer, thanks Canon) and it doesn't have any kind of 10bit Log video. As for the A6700, sure it's a better camera, but it's almost $500 more expensive ($440), and at this point this is a completely different price bracket in which Nikon isn't competing yet.

Another Sony fanboy trying to bash Nikon..."oh Sony is better oh canon is better"...maybe Sony apsc are better than z50ii but canon apsc? If you try too hard to find negatives you are going to find... Sony and canon apsc cameras don't have rolling shutter? And don't they miss shots? Are you sure? I can get any Sony camera and make them look bad... Specially build quality and greenish colours... If you love Sony stay there... If you review other brand stay open minded... Not always " oh Sony camera does it better on this and that"...if I started photography today I would think Sony is just this perfect camera brand that isn't...just the one with more money into marketing
Did you not hear the part where he says “I actually discovered something about Nikon’s AutoFocus that I like over other big brands like Sony, Canon & LUMIX.” There’s no part of this video where he sounds like a fanboy of any brand just bashing - get out a here with that nonsense.
@@caffeinatedcameras Nikon bashers need to point at least one thing they think is positive about Nikon to not sound fan boys... Specially the ones with big platforms... An open minded person that knows the industry can see the bias... And please watch his video on Nikon Z6III... I am sure you will hear "oh but Sony is better"... Nikon Z6iii "autofocus workable"?! ... "I wish sensor had less noise"?! "Camera record 6k 60 only in n raw"!?.... "Recording limit of 125 minutes"?! You are pro right? So there is z9 ... You don't want to shoot in n raw so why are you reviewing Nikon video gear? 😅
@@caffeinatedcameras That's true, but he uses non-stabilised lenses on a camera without IBIS (which is expected for the price) and then criticises the video stabilisation. I also wonder what autofocus modes he used for his test. He didn't mention that.
@ yeah and justifiably so because it looks far worse than if you were to use other budget cameras with 3rd party lenses. He’s saying this because he has done just that.
I have the Z50ii and use it as my personal family camera and back up for the Z8 for professional work, on the 1% chance the Z8 fails on a wedding day, this camera could 100% finish the day
To begin with, there are no longer bad cameras, but bad photographers! Everyone chooses the camera that suits them according to their use. A Cartier-Besson worked wonders with film cameras. Even the most expensive camera will never take great pictures if the user does not know any of the rules of shooting. I have been taking pictures for 63 years and most of the specialists or their parents were not yet born.
So since this seems to just be completely flying over the head of nearly every non-Nikon shooter reviewer, the Z50ii is made for APSC Nikon shooters. Who make that population up? The older Japanese population, much of Southeast Asia and Latin America. The 5000 series F-mount cameras have been and still are HUGE in these areas. The Z50ii is definitely an attempt to start bringing those shooters over to the Z-mount. So sure, this thing isn't meant for you. It isn't designed with you in mind. If you were a 5000 series enjoyer, then yep, this ones for you. Simple as.
im sorry but your not very good at your reviewing process. first off im not a nikon fanboy...but I am a professional photographer and videographer....i would NEVER use an ENTRY level camera like this for work. this is for youtubers like you who want everything for nothing. you cant expect a sub $1000 camera to be perfect to do so it just plain stupid. my gear cost $10K+ for a reason, this camera is for armatures NOT professionals so dont treat it as such. its an OK camera, but great for who its designed for. VERY POOR REVIEW based upon your lack of understanding.
This camera doesn't have IBIS, and that's no surprise given the price, so I feel you're overly critical considering you're using it with non-stabilised lenses. At least for video I'd say test it with the 16-50 or 12-28. Those are slow lenses but at least they're stabilised. You can criticise Nikon for not having more interesting DX lenses (esp zooms) and I feel the same way, but that's a different matter. I think, also, you're forgetting about a potential target market for this camera: those that already have a fullframe Z5 or Z6 I or II, and are interested in wildlife photography. Your typical wildlife lens has its own stabilisation, and IBIS doesn't work that well at longer focal lengths anyway, but you do get very good animal and bird autofocus. And the crop factor will be welcome. Basically you're getting Z8 pixel density and autofocus (at least in terms of the AF system itself) at a much lower price.
There are only a few third party long zoom lenses for the z mount that have stabilization built-in. Without the lens stabilization, the only option is electronic and that is only available for video, and yes it’s not very good. The way you say that you can’t access those stabilization modes(“sport” etc) makes it sound like it’s a camera limitation, when it’s really a lens limitation. For beginners, they will likely start with the Nikon DX crop lenses, most of those have the stabilization and work pretty well for basic video. I’m mostly a stills shooter so stabilization is not quite as important to me. I do really hope Nikon puts out a crop sensor camera with built-in stabilization sometime soon. Also, perhaps Nikon mirrorless focusing requires more practice than other cameras, but many people and reviewers that are familiar with Nikon mirrorless can achieve excellent autofocus with the Z50ii rather than the good autofocus that you demonstrated here. I also see reviews just like yours where the focusing is just ok. Nothing against your experience as everyone’s experience will be somewhat different. I appreciate you making a review of the z50ii as many reviewers don’t pay much attention to “entry level” gear.
Had Z50 and Z30. For pet eye detect, not so hot. Would rarely if ever pick up my dogs eyes. I wanted to try Z50 II but what i'm seeing online I'm not so convinced. It would compliment my Z5 nicely. Anyway, I went ahead and bought a Canon R50 and I can tell you...those shots at 6:30 would be in focus or at least a lot more hits. I have a german shepherd mostly black fur and dark brown eyes. It can see the eyes will little to almost no contrast and fast action is completely doable with the dog running at you. I can often get the last frames in focus outside MFD. It's kind of insane for such a cheap camera.
I like Nikon in general, but this is a tough one to recommend to anyone. Nikon seems to really want everyone on full frame given the lack of lenses and no D500 replacement or IBIS model to upgrade to if you invest in this. It's a brand new release that hardly does anything better than the old a6400 (which itself needs to be updated -- it's older than the Z50i was), really just 4k60 but with 1.5x crop it's hardly worthwhile, and a fast JPEG burst but it hardly gets the focus right. The a6400 has a massive lens selection, higher resolution, better autofocus, it's quite a bit smaller and lighter, has twice the battery life, and higher models to upgrade to (though Sony still needs a "pro" APSC with dual card slots). Or for the money I'd sooner recommend a used a6600 to also get IBIS, way better battery life yet, improve autofocus, and half a stop more dynamic range. The autofocus performance was surprisingly poor given how people claim it's the same as the Z8 and Z6iii, but along the lines of what I've seen in other videos. Not having access to the Sigma zooms is a major loss (maybe in the future?) and it's really quite big and heavy, so not the best suited for travel. We know Nikon is capable of better so we should expect it of them.
I'm confused, Sigma don't make any Z mount lenses with stabilisation, so how can you test that? Which lens was tested to supposedly not get VR? Most APS-C mirrorless cameras don't have IBIS, and none at the price point of the Z50ii have it, so you can't really count that against the camera.
It is the same sensor as D500, not just z50, but updated processor. It could be actually good. there was nothing wrong with d500 quality, but the new processor will give a plethora of modern features.
I would think that not only the sensor is the same, but the body as well, only the processor changed. I had the Z50 mk1 so probably it's exactly the same.
The more reviews I watch, the more I'm convinced I should buy the Z6III over the Z50II. This seems like a very small upgrade from my Nikon D5100. Just doesn't seem worth the money.
it depends on what photography you generally do. It's definitely a big jump from your camera. the auto focus will be great. I'm using the D7500 for wildlife AND Landscape , its the same 20.9 sensor . I;m looking at the Z6III its A BIGGER bughet . Video a given lo
I have been a fan of Nikon until have the Sony a7Riii. I was expecting more updates in Z50ii. But it is a very old sensor & without IBIS 👎. There are nothing improvement in dynamic range.
I think for $1,000 I would probably go for the canon r8 cause of the full frame sensor, batter autofocus, etc. And you can get used for around the same price
Fullframe isn't necessarily better though. But I would not recommend the Z50II to build a system around. There aren't enough interesting lenses, particularly zooms. I hope Nikon realises there's a whole market they've been neglecting. But we'll see if that's the case. The R8 doesn't have IBIS either though, and Canon lenses are quite expensive. I might go for a Z5 for casual photography instead. Or a Z6III if you need better autofocus.
Yes the Canon R8 doesn’t have ibis but the electronic ibis it has is great. As someone who used both z50ii and R8, go with the R8. Plus you have more access to lenses, just don’t go with Red line ones as they are extremely expensive. Buy the STM from 16mm f2.8 and onward, you will be much happier with the purchase.
Nice video! I think the thing that frustrates me the most about micro HDMI is the fact that you can run proper HDMI from a USB C port. But yeah, this truly is the camera that Nikon's ever made.
