Nikon Z50 II Overview
Eye-Detection AF, specifically, has been tuned for improved accuracy and refined recognition of eyes in the scene and can also be used in conjunction with custom Wide-Area AF for different subject shapes and sizes.

Nikon Z50 II Mirrorless Camera
A first for Nikon, the Z50 II is UAC and UAV compliant for live web-streaming. Additionally, you can now record 10-bit video internally with Nikon’s N-Log LUT and use four new RED LUTs as well.
Nikon has added a Picture Control button atop the Z50 II to make access to its 31 built-in presets available even in Auto mode. The color presets can now be overlaid in the rear LCD screen, giving you the ability to visualize the color shifts as you create. Creator Recipes built by fellow Nikon shooters are available through the Nikon Imaging Cloud and can be downloaded and integrated alongside the presets. Additionally, Nikon provides a one-year subscription to their Cloud Picture Controls software, so you can use your own presets with professional editing tools.
- A large 3.2″ LCD touchscreen is available for bright, clear, and vivid image playback and live view shooting. The screen has a 180° flip-under tilting design, which benefits front-facing selfie captures, and offers more intuitive operation, navigation, and settings control. The upgraded touchscreen now features the Touch FN option, which allows you to select the focus point with your fingertips.
- The improved electronic viewfinder was redesigned for increased comfort in eye-level viewing. Using NIKKOR optics to guarantee a sharp, clear image, it is now twice as bright as its predecessor.
- A built-in flash and a hot shoe allow you to introduce additional light into low-lit scenes, with a dedicated Night Portrait mode that optimizes a balanced exposure with available and additional light.
- A headphone jack has been added, doubling as a terminal for Nikon’s newly released and optional MC-DC3 Remote Release Cord, and the USB-C terminal provides both camera charging and USB power delivery. The camera retains the microphone and HDMI ports of its predecessor.
- Built-in SnapBridge connectivity enables seamless transfer of low-resolution imagery as well as remote shooting capabilities. BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) and Wi-Fi enable communication between the camera and a smart device, and the mobile device can remotely trigger the shutter to display a live view image from the camera for working from a distance.
- The included EN-EL25a rechargeable lithium-ion battery extends camera battery life, with in-camera charging also supported.
- Single SD memory card slots supports the UHS-II protocol for quickly storing photo and video files.
