Fine with the sensor and everything looks good but no ibis is a killer. Was ready to sell my Olympus gear for this as a travel camera but i love using ibis with prime lenses.
in the same boat @steventhomas231 and nothing beats that M43 form factor with ibis and lightweight lenses! I may use funds for the OM-1 or OM-5
Well done NIkon, a big update to an amazing little camera. The best part is the price point, and the Expeed 7 processor.
Hi Frames - nice video.
I do think that this is a great upgrade for budget wildlife photographers: if you compare it to the D500 it is 40% of the release price, it has the same sensor. It has 11 FPS mechanical where the D500 was only 10 FPS; it has animal, bird and 3D subject tracking, and the focus points are the entire frame. Neither camera had/has IBIS and IBIS is not extremely important for wildlife photography as you normally are shooting with high shutter speeds like 1/2000+.
The absence of IBIS is more of a problem with respect to vlogging and video, although most of the DX Nikon zoom lenses have VR already, and so does the 70-200 2.8S and I beleive the 100-400 S lens (although I am not sure about this last one - oh and so does the 180-600 lens although these are not good for vlogging lol.
I do think that 4k 60 cropped is a negative and this is likely a result of the old sensor - so that is too bad, but still for $900 - this is a beast of a camera - there is now a very viable wildlife set up for less than $5,000 which has often been the benchmark. If you got this camera with the 100-400 S (or with the 400 4.5 S) you would be well under $5k and would be able to get very professional results - so D500 people should be very happy with this offering.
Just some of my initial thoughts.
-PD
Sad that there is no grip available and as you said the battery, otherwise it would be a potential D500 replacement! The z50ii is a consumer camera where the d500 was a prosumer camera. But in some ways it already is a better camera than the D500 (pro capture especially).
Hey Frames, great insights. Having the D500, Z50, and Z30, I don't feel moved to buy the Z50II. As a nature photographer, I shoot birds mainly with the D500 and F-mount 300mm f/4 PF lens. The Z50II paired with the Z-mount 400mm f/4.5 S lens would weigh about the same (a huge factor for an old man who bushwhacks), but spending $4K to duplicate much of what I already have is a turnoff. Also not sure I like the idea of an autofocus mode for birds. I've been studying them for 40+ years and have relationships with many of my subjects here in southern New England. "Bird autofocus" is too easy and would put me in the category of people who need a camera to do most of the work. The photographer, rather than the camera, should drive the subject choice and shooting technique. "Bird autofocus," cars, planes, and the rest remind me of those awful scene modes like sunsets and flowers.
Hey Rob I agree. I think it was a miss unless Nikon launches a Z70 or something like that. Btw, I think there will be a Z70
@@FramesTM A Z70 would be interesting!
I really think it is at the perfect price point with the features I don't have with my Z 5 and Z 30. For birds and action shots it's perfect for me. I would like Z 9 or Z 8 but those are too expensive at the moment for my budget (dream cameras). Around 1000€ is something I think I can spend. 😊 🐦
Hmmm I see what you mean
Not the camera I hoped for but after looking it over. I think it’s solid. However, I’m waiting for a Nikon Z fc II to get the incremental upgrades.
As said earlier it's old wine in new bottle.... There was no need for Nikon to relaunch Z50ii with whatever alterations they did with it.... Instead they could have launched a semi pro & pro level Z bodies like say Z80(26MP)/Z90(33/40MP)....
With advance features incorporating Exspeed 7 processor, IBIS,Dual card slots (CFExpress/SD), ENEL 15c battery with advance codecs for videos (for those who want the hybrid camera capable of doing 6K/8k videos)....All this could be launched in affordable price package between INR 1.25L& INR 1.50L....
Hi Frames, I was excited about this initially and still interested but on the fence. The reason: I wanted something to fill in for my Zf or Z6iii during travel. When traveling I shoot 25% nature/wildlife and 75% street photography and the tilt screen on a Fujifilm or Panasonic older GX9 would do better. Yet, I wanted it to be the Z50II and I may just have to accept the flippy screen. But then again, the Zf though 50% heavier has it all, including stabilization. Sigh.... always looking for perfection! 😆
I feel it’s a bit of a miss
I think this is one of Nikon's better shadow drops. I like the specs, even with the older sensor, I am expecting cleaner images because of the Expeed7. IBIS is a letdown though. There are similar sized Fuji cameras with IBIS, so this is mostly a deliberate omission by choice. I still think I will get one for my niece, who is an aspiring videographer looking for something better than her Canon 80D. I was going to give her my Z6, but I think this is a better beginner kit.
How are you bro! 👊
All good bro! I hope all is well at your end as well!
I wish Nikon would make a Z DX f/2.8 zoom with VR. If that happened I’d forgive them for no IBIS.
The Z50 II would have been better with IBIS. Most of the lenses I have do not have built-in VR. I really liked the size of the Z50 and the Z50 II could've been one of the top aps-c cameras to buy. If I'm not mistaken, the Sony A6700 has IBIS.
True
Nikon killed the camera with the lack of ibis. Why adding new video advancements and not being able to hand held it with non vr lenses?
Lack of IBIS is a frustration. I think there will be a Z70
nikon z50 je velmi dobrý fotoaparát. Jediné co mu chybí je stabilizace snímače. Možná nás nový Z50 ll překvapí. Díky
Unfortunately the Z50II doesn’t have ibis.
@FramesTM
ano není stabilizace😞, ale i tak to bude fain fotoaparát. Kdybych ho měl před 20 lety, tak jsem šťastný. I tak, klidně bych si ho pořídil i dnes.
Díky
Yup.
If the Dynamic range is good, thanks to the iso range, along with a vasty improved auto focus, this sub $1000 camera will be an easy recommendation, especially for street photography. IMHO. Thanks for the video.
Agree
Great
no ibis, come on Nikon...
Yup
I was waitng for the upgrade but This is the useless camera for upgrade from z50. Its good for first time buyers only. I was expecting the atleast ibis and dual card like canon r7. Nikon you disappointed me.
Well it’s not that bad too
I own Z50 from 4 years and I love that camera bcz it's compact and picture quality. No doubt mark 2 is good choice for first time buyers only. For me its not worth for upgrade just for improved AF UHS ii card etc I need Ibis.
Dull review wihtout positive attitude. Video sharpness is not that much good in this post
Not sure what you mean
