Z30: Creator ready
Compact, connected, and designed for creators, the Nikon Z30 is a mirrorless camera specifically designed for vloggers and live streamers. By combining Nikon's remarkable image quality, 4K video recording, and a large 20.9 MP DX-format sensor with a specialized feature set and design, the Z30 is designed to enhance your content and accompany you on your daily adventures.

4K video recording and sensor design
Video and streaming

• At the heart of the camera is a 20.9 MP DX-format CMOS sensor, which not only meets video production needs but also makes the Z30 a high-capacity photographic camera.

• Recording in UHD 4K format up to 30p is supported for sharp and high-resolution videos. Full HD 120p recording is also available for slow-motion playback.

• It is possible to make continuous recordings of up to 2 hours and 15 minutes to document events or any other situation that requires longer continuous shots.

• It is possible to stream live in Full HD 60p or 4K 30p resolution, and the Z30 is compatible with a variety of web conferencing applications, which means it can also easily function as a high-quality webcam.

• For longer takes, streaming, and other instances where you need constant power, the Z30 can be powered through the USB Type-C port.

Photography capabilities

• The versatile 20.9 MP resolution also caters to photography needs, making the Z30 a perfect tool for capturing photos during productions or for photographing miniatures and higher-resolution promotional images.

• The large DX-format sensor benefits work in low-light conditions by producing images with low noise, high clarity, and a useful sensitivity range of ISO 100 to 51200, or up to ISO 25600 when recording videos.

• To photograph fast-moving action, a maximum continuous shooting speed of up to 11 fps is available.

• Combining still images and videos, it is possible to produce time-lapse in the camera.

• You can also use presets and built-in filters to refine your photos and videos directly from the camera.

Essential elements for making vlogs

• Specifically designed for vlogs and content creation, the Z30 incorporates a series of physical touches and operational features perfect for creators:

• The compact body design incorporates a 3.0" free-angle LCD screen with 1.04 million dots. This adjustable screen can face forward for precise selfie compositions and can be closed inward to protect the screen from scratches and fingerprints when not in use.

• Selfie-style controls allow you to change the focus position and exposure, as well as set the self-timer, through the touchscreen when the screen is facing forward.

• The front red indicator light clearly shows when the camera is recording.

• Special attention is given to audio recording with the inclusion of a superior stereo microphone along with a 3.5 mm external microphone port to work with an optional microphone. Additionally, there is a dedicated optional windscreen to reduce wind noise and improve quality when using the built-in microphone.

• Stabilize your handheld camera videos using digital image stabilization e-VR, which helps reduce unwanted vibrations and shakes during recording.

Fast and reliable autofocus

• The hybrid autofocus system uses phase detection and contrast methods to quickly and accurately acquire focus for both photography and video applications.

• Eye detection autofocus uses facial recognition to help fix the focus on the subjects' eyes.

• Facial and eye tracking can recognize people, dogs, and cats, and it can focus on these subjects and maintain the focus as they move through the scene.

• Ideal for product close-ups, the AF system changes focus quickly and naturally when you hold something in front of the camera and then switches focus back to the subject when the product moves away.

Connectivity and operation

• Wi-Fi and Bluetooth compatibility works with the Snapbridge app for mobile devices, allowing remote control of the camera and wireless transfer of photos and videos to your smartphone or tablet.

• The intuitive design includes a '?' button to provide a clear explanation of all the camera settings, there is a dedicated automatic mode for times when you prefer the camera to optimize the shooting settings, and there is a customizable 'i' menu for quick access to your essential settings.

Nikon NIKKOR Z DX 16-50 mm f/3.5-6.3 VR Lens (black)
Compact and versatile, the Nikon NIKKOR Z DX 16-50 mm f/3.5-6.3 VR is a zoom lens equivalent to 24-75 mm designed for DX-format Z-mount mirrorless cameras. This lens, which covers a zoom range from wide-angle to portrait, is ideal for everyday photographic situations. Its optical design incorporates aspherical and extra-low dispersion elements, which help reduce a variety of aberrations to achieve sharper and clearer image quality throughout the zoom range. A super integrated coating has also been applied to minimize ghosting and flare for greater contrast and color accuracy in bright and backlit conditions.

The lens's flexible focal length range is complemented by image stabilization with vibration reduction, which minimizes the appearance of camera shake by up to 4.5 stops for sharper handheld shots. A stepping motor provides fast, quiet, and precise autofocus performance along with full-time manual focus override to suit both photography and video applications. Additionally, a programmable control ring can be configured for intuitive adjustment across a variety of camera and exposure settings.

• The standard zoom is designed for Nikon mirrorless cameras with a DX format Z mount and provides an equivalent focal length range of 24-75 mm.

• An extra-low dispersion element reduces color fringing and chromatic aberrations to enhance clarity and color accuracy.

• Four aspherical elements minimize spherical aberrations and distortion throughout the zoom range to achieve greater sharpness and accurate representation.

• The super integrated coating suppresses flare and ghosting to enhance contrast and color fidelity when working in intense lighting conditions.

• The stepper motor offers incredibly smooth, quiet, and fast autofocus performance, making it ideal for both photography and video applications. Manual focus override is also possible at any time, and an internal focusing design is used, where only the internal lens groups move during focusing, to maintain the total lens length during use and promote faster focusing speeds.

• Image stabilization with vibration reduction minimizes the appearance of camera shake by up to 4.5 stops to achieve sharper photos without a tripod.

• The programmable control ring is set by default to adjust manual focus, but it can also be used to control aperture or exposure compensation.

• The specialized electromagnetic opening mechanism provides greater exposure control stability, which is especially beneficial when working with fast continuous shooting speeds.

• The rounded seven-blade diaphragm promotes a pleasing out-of-focus quality that benefits the use of shallow depth of field techniques.
