Nikon Z fc 20.9MP DX CMOS Sensor Camera with Nikkor Z DX 16-50mm f/3.5-6.3 VR Lens (Black)
Experience iconic Nikon design with modern Z series technology in the Nikon Zfc Mirrorless Camera in Black finish. Shoot 4K videos with full-time Eye-Detection AF. It features a flip out vlogger screen with live streaming capabilities. Though small in size, it offers big image quality. This is a camera you think you’ve seen before. But the performance is entirely new.
Quality That Thrills
What sets the Z fc apart is the 20.9MP DX CMOS sensor paired with the Expeed 6 engine and the light-gathering advantages of the wider Z mount. Together, they give you clean, professional looking videos and stills, even in low light.
It All Starts with the Z Mount
The Nikon Z fc is designed around Nikon’s revolutionary Z mount, the widest lens mount of any comparable camera system. A wider mount means more light, and more light means more of everything good - sharpness, contrast, accurate focus, low-light performance and image quality.
Freedom to Compose
Take a moment and appreciate the world around you from fresh perspectives. The Z fc employs a 3.0-inch Vari-angle monitor - the first in a Z series camera. Effortlessly shoot vertical shots from low angles.
Set Your Sights
The Z fc’s sensor is practically covered in focus points - 87 percent coverage to be precise. That means wherever your subject is within the frame, a focus point is locked on. Compose the way you want.
Lock Eyes
Nikon’s intelligent Eye-Detection AF for video and stills quickly locks onto eyes - humans, dogs or cats - and follows them. This is especially useful when you can’t be behind the camera, for first-person videos and selfies. ISO sensitivity goes all the way up to ISO 51200 (expandable to ISO 204,800) with superb sharpness, detail and clarity. Create after hours and in less-than-ideal lighting.
Get Creative, In Camera
Add uniqueness to your videos and stills with 20 Creative Picture Controls, all visible in real-time while you shoot through the viewfinder or Vari-angle display. Now, filters are part of the vision rather than an afterthought.
Video Done Right
Comprehensive video, vlogging and streaming capabilities. Record 4K Ultra HD video at 30p, 25p or 24p full pixel readout with no cropping. Combined with Nikkor Z lenses, you’ll maximize the sensor’s resolution and produce videos with lifelike depth and clarity.
The Vlogger Monitor You’ve been Waiting For
The Z fc’s Vari-angle display can face forward for easier vlogging and first-person recording. This activates self-portrait mode, bringing key camera controls to the monitor so you can conveniently touch and tap adjustments.
Live Streaming and Web Conferencing
Look your absolute best with the Z fc and a Nikkor Z lens. Simply connect the camera to your computer with a USB Type-C cable (sold separately) - it provides power too and compatible software like the free Nikon Webcam Utility. You’ll get sharpness, clarity and flattering depth of field unlike a typical webcam.
Autofocus Automated
The whole time you’re recording, the autofocus system is working, making precise adjustments to keep your subject in sharp focus. This means you can be the one in front of the camera, even streaming live, with total confidence in your footage.
Add an External Mic
Capture high quality sound in-camera using the Z fc’s built-in stereo mic or a dedicated third-party external mic. The 3.5mm stereo mini-pin jack provides plug-in power. Monitor your audio levels on-screen, including a clipping indicator, and make gain adjustments in real-time.
Image Transfers - Wireless and Automatic
Pair your smart device to the Z fc from the SnapBridge app once, and your phone and camera are always connected. You can transfer videos and stills manually or set the app to automatically import every still you take, then edit and post your work with your favorite phone apps.
Grab the Remote
When you can’t be behind the camera, pull out your compatible smartphone and use it to control the Z fc. See what the camera sees, change camera settings like aperture and shutter speed, then take the video or still.
Always Up To Date
SnapBridge wirelessly updates the Z fc’s firmware to the latest and greatest. When paired, the app will notify you of any updates and send the firmware directly to your camera’s memory card for a quick and easy and totally wireless install.
Tough and Sophisticated
Tough, lightweight magnesium alloy frame protects the Z fc against life. When you don’t need the touchscreen LCD, it’s safely protected within the camera. It features an OLED viewfinder with 100 percent frame coverage, 1.02x magnification, and real-time preview of exposure, settings and effects.
Built to be Easy
With the Auto mode, prefer to let the camera determine the best exposure settings for your situation. Switch the camera to Auto and Nikon’s serious onboard intelligence will take over for you With help at the touch of the question button, a brief explanation will pop up in the viewfinder or on the Vari-angle display like quick reference guide built into your camera. Assign the menu items you use most to the i-Menu. Create separate i-Menu settings for video and still modes. You’ll have a one-click dashboard of the settings you rely on most.
