Nikon just announced a new mirrorless camera with an APS-C sensor: the Nikon Z 50. This new camera is the little brother of the Nikon Z 6 / Z 7 cameras that features Full-Frame sensors. Also, a new range of lenses has been introduced, the Nikon NIKKOR Z DX series. This new line-up of affordable zoom lenses is compatible with Z mount cameras with APS-C sensors – like the Z 50. At the moment, two lenses are available: the NIKKOR Z DX 16-50mm F/3.5-6.3 VR and the NIKKOR 50-250mm F/4.5-6.3 VR. Let’s take a closer look at these new products! Nikon Z 50 – A Z Mount Camera with an APS-C Sensor The Nikon Z line of cameras that came out in 2018 consisted of only two cameras with Full-Frame sensors: the Nikon Z 6 and Z 7. But, Nikon just introduced a smaller – and more affordable – camera that features a 20.9 MP APS-C sensor: the Nikon Z 50. This new Z mount camera is quite an exciting move from Nikon because it is a direct competition to other APS-C DSLRs cameras in their line-up like the D7500.
