- Опубликовано: 23 июл 2024
- Nikon D50. The Nikon D50 is a consumer grade DSLR released in 2005. That makes the Nikon D50 17 years old, so its the Nikon D50 still worth buying in 2022. The Nikon D50 is 6.1 megapixels. The D50 is a crop sensor camera and has an ISO range of 200-1600 ISO. The Nikon D50 in 2022 uses a single SD slow with a size limitation of about 4 gigs. The Nikon D50 in 2022 ranges in price, from the lowest I found of 6 dollars, all the way up to 225 dollars. The Nikon D50 in 2022 does not have video capabilities but is an extremely budget friendly DSLR, so is the Nikon D50 worth buying in 2022?

2022 and I STILL Love my Nikon D50 that I told you about when we spoke! For the price its a LOT of Camera! Clean images and true colors for its time!
Oh absolutely! Such a fantastic camera, one of the few cameras I'd never let go of!
This is great to hear. I inherited a D50 from my uncle when he passed and it came with a strobe flash, lenses, all the great stuff that I would not be able to afford for ages right now if not for this.
Sorry for your loss, but happy shooting!!
I was in Hawaii with my Nikon D 50 and I was able to take some very nice photos that I took at Volcanoes National Park. Looking at the floor of a deflated Halemaumau Crater I was able to get details that were very nice. I also was able to capture the inside of Thurston Lava Tube.
The d50 is such an amazing camera!!!
The D50 has a Sony CCD ICX-453-AQ sensor and autofocus motor. This sensor was only used in the D50, D40, D70 and D70s. The D50 is the only model with this specific sensor batch and AF motor. 5 points AF works fast and nails the autofocus everytime. CCD vs CMOS? you decide. Hasselblad still uses CCD sensors. Let that sink in.
Hasselblad is on my bucket list haha
Hi Nick
Good video! The D50 had some good and not so good features. The focusing motor was one reason I purchased it. But the small monitor turned me off. I'm glad it found a good home!!
Best wishes
Duane
Yeah lol the monitor is so small, makes my usual showing the photos to the model hard hahaha
You would not last long in the film era. IMHO you shouldn't be using your monitor much anyways. I snap a shot and look at my exposure real quick all I want to know is if its too light or dark. Then I keep shooting. I might pause after a cluster of shots just to quickly acroll to make sure my auto focus is on point. even with todays modern cameras. I don't use the screen much when I'm taking photos.
Nice video. 😁
Please can I ask a question. Just been given a Nikon D50 with 3 lenses. I need a SD card upto 2Gb to store photos BUT does the shutter work ( to test camera is okay ) and make a noise without a card inside ? The display says -E- which according to the user guide means NO CARD. Any help would be very appreciated. Thank you, David.
I would get a super cheap chard to test the camera with so you're not too invested
-E- means no readable card. Try a 1GB then a 2GB. BTW you can pick these up dirt cheap because people think its broken because of the -E- code. I got a D100 for $20 all I did was put a card in it. Another guy sold me a D5000 like new with less than 4k click for $25 for the same reason. He thought it was broken for parts only.
@@hrpickinstuff Thanks, sorted. Good to know you've had a couple of bargains. 👍
I still have my trusty N50 along with a telephoto and macro lense plus the one it came with. Next year I will be taking my trip of a lifetime to Antarctica and wonder if this setup is going to be adequate. On the one hand, I'm already spending so much on the trip I don't want to fork over more money for a new camera, but on the other hand I'm spending so much money on this trip I don't want to be disappointed with my pictures, either. What's your advice?
Oh that's such a hard one! The d50 is a fantastic camera, personally I would get a d3*** or d5*** series as a backup just in case. Your lenses sound perfect though
Yes, I currently have a Nikon d50 and I find it difficult to take pictures indoors with it. I usually do nature and landscape photography anyway so it's perfect for that.
Yeah it is not great in low light
Have you ever shot a Nikon D100? Also 6.1 MP with a CCD sensor. I know you enjoy the Nikon D50, would love to see you do a comparison between the two. I have a Nikon D100 and enjoy using it for street photography. Great content, liked and subscribed.
I havnt but I'm on the hunt for one now...m
D50 has been my main camera since I purchased it back in the aughts. I bought it to upgrade from my N65 setup to digital it’s worked great for just about everything I’ve needed it for (events, light painting, birds, landscapes, etc.). I do have a speed flash, remote, and a few different lenses. As a long term amateur, I feel it’s time for an upgrade. Personally, using the SD card (low capacity) is becoming burdensome, especially with Bluetooth/wireless connectivity available now.
Oh man it's such a great camera though! Lol but for reals, any ideas what you'll upgrade too?
I still shoot with a N65. And occasionally shoot with my D50. Both are great cameras. I love the small 6MP raw files from the D50, which you can easily transfer to a phone with a SD card adapter.
I also have nice full frame cameras. But I really wouldn’t be at a loss if I only used my D50 for digital photos.
@@PinkhatPhotography, I haven’t given it too much thought yet. In any event, it will most likely another Nikon.
Thank you for the very good review , I'm just a little confused insofar as all my Nikon D50's will only accept a 2GB SD card , .they will not accept a 4GB sd card , I have X 4 , D50's , I have converted 3 of them to full spectrum photography . I had foolishly purchased X 2, 4GB cards on Ebay , however they where cheap & I guess I can use the cards for other purposes .
My luck with the d50 has been with 2gb cards as well.
It works only with 2 GB SD-cards maximum
that is what I have run into too
Those early Nikon had a CCD sensor who gives superb colors rendition
Right??? They are amazing!!!!
Yes sir.
What camera do you recommend that can take videos and pictures, and is great for portrait and landscape images? Budget is around $200. Thanks !
I heard someone say a nikon d300 was around 200
I like the d5300 at that price point personally
My D50 is one camera I would hang on to above all others, it takes superb photos. Don't get caught with the 6.1 mega pixel believe me when you see the results you wont believe it's just 6mp, the colours are just right it's so easy to use and the internal motor is a bonus. I have a D800 with 36mp but for normal sized photos I think the D50 has a better straight out of the camera photo, the more mega pixels you have the better your lenses have to be. If you see a cheap one in good working condition it's a bargain of a lifetime.
There are still a ton out there too! I still love my d50!
100% agree. I own two. Needed a back up.
I have a chance to get one in almost new condition and listed as a camera in a box. It looks like a complete package that Nikon offered that's a whole bunch of small boxes in a big box and comes with an extra tameron lense that looks like it may be a zoom. All for $150.00 and I'm wondering if you think it's worth it?
If it comes with a bunch of stuff and has a super low shutter count I think it's worth that
@@PinkhatPhotography yes it comes with the original lense which they said is a wide angle and a zoom. Also checked out a Samsung a10 I think is the model which seemed to have good reviews for the time. Both on FB marketplace.
Oh yeah definitely not a bad find!
Should I get this or the D70 for bird photography?
Tbh I they are both fantastic cameras, I personally like the d50 more
@@PinkhatPhotography Thanks, I was going to buy the D70 or D50 but I found a great deal on the Sony A100 + Minolta AF 75-300mm lens. Got them plus all the accessories needed for 130 euros. Can't wait for the rest to arrive, only the lens arrived as of a few hours ago.
Bravo 👏
Thank you!
So you got yourself an old ccd?
I've had a d40 for awhile now, I am looking at d3000 now!
02:20 my d80 might contradict that statement.
The D80 I would put in the same boat as the 7000 series Nikons a prosumer camera, where as the D50 is a consumer grade camera, It might have been difficult since I didn't say grade in the video but that is what I meant. The D50 was 799 when released where as the D80 cost about a grand on release a year later
Man no offence but wtf is going on with that weird light that you got and the mic?
Lol tbh I think I was experimenting with this series and ended up never attempting it again
Would this camera be good for real estate photography
I've used it for real estate, it's not great in lower light, so you would want lights
Just got offered this camera for 80$
@@PinkhatPhotography thank you! Do you have online consultations.. I have a few listing’s scheduled for next week. I will be using this camera kind of nervous. I also have the iPhone 14 pro max
I'm totally down to exchange emails to help!!
Not a terrible price!
You lost me when you said "I upgraded to SONY"
Lol at this point I shoot Nikon, Sony, Fuji and canon. The Sony was a huge improvement on my d5300, but I love them all lol
For 225$ you can almost get a used gx80 lol
Lol, I've been eyeing those too! Hahahaha, my Patreon that I've been saving is going to a lens though hahaha
I just buy d300s $130 us and seller free d50 to me
Hahahaha if I wasn't so attached to the d50 I might do that!
@@andywong3374 d300 is still great. Yearbook pic companies still use them.
