Released in July 2021. Lens not included. Purchase separately. A fusion of mirrorless and traditional Nikon design. Enjoyable dial operation and high-performance AF with Eye AF and Animal AF, effective for video. [ZFCNikon] [report] ZFCNikon Released in July 2021. A fusion of mirrorless and traditional Nikon design. The joy of photography lies in every step leading up to a single photograph. And in the days of film cameras, there were cameras that conveyed the joy of photography and were beloved by many. Take the Nikon FM2, for example. The Z fc was born with a meticulously crafted exterior design inspired by the FM2, a camera that symbolizes the joy of photography. Not only the body size, but also the pentaprism design and black and silver color balance are reproduced to resemble the FM2. The leather-grained finish on the back of the monitor also evokes the film camera aesthetic. Each dial is carefully crafted from machined aluminum, and all display information on the top surface is engraved. The camera features the Nikon logo and circular eyepiece, a design reminiscent of cameras from the 1970s and 1980s, and meticulous attention to detail. All of this is possible thanks to Nikon's long-standing craftsmanship.
Three dials let you see all settings at a glance. Turn the dials with the tactile feel of the mechanism at your fingertips, enjoy each step of the shooting process, and pour your heart into each photograph. The Z fc features three dials on the top of the body: shutter speed, ISO sensitivity, and exposure compensation, as well as a small window displaying the f-stop. These allow you to see basic camera settings at a glance. The satisfying dial operation allows you to carefully adjust each setting and release the shutter, allowing for a fun shooting style.
Exposure compensation available in auto mode. This is the first Z series camera to feature exposure compensation in auto mode. While using the basic settings in auto mode, you can easily adjust the image brightness with the exposure compensation dial to create silhouettes, high-key images, or low-key images. The electronic viewfinder (EVF) fully captures the shooting experience. The EVF utilizes a 2.36 million-dot OLED panel and Nikon's superior optical and image processing technologies to deliver a sharp, clear image with a field of view of approximately 100% and a magnification of approximately 1.02x. This allows you to concentrate on the exact moment you're aiming for, allowing you to truly experience the joy of taking a photograph. The EVF also displays the same settings as the monitor, allowing you to quickly change settings without taking your eye off the viewfinder. The Z fc is the first Z series camera to feature a vari-angle monitor. Unlike tilt-type monitors, the monitor can be flipped horizontally, allowing for a wider range of uses, including attaching the camera to a selfie stick or shooting vlogs. When the monitor is facing forward, it automatically switches to selfie mode, enabling high-quality selfies in both still and video. The AF-F mode, designed specifically for video recording, can also be used in selfie mode. The vari-angle monitor also makes vertical low-angle and high-angle shooting easy. The 3.0-inch, approximately 1.04 million-dot touchscreen monitor offers comfortable operation with light touch controls. Dedicated Screen and Touch Controls for Easy Selfie Mode: When the freely adjustable monitor faces the camera, a dedicated selfie screen appears. Touch the monitor to adjust the self-timer (10 seconds/2 seconds) and exposure compensation*. Touch AF and Touch Shutter are also available for still image capture. Touch AF is also available for video recording, allowing for convenient focus adjustment. The dedicated AF-F mode for video recording can also be used in Selfie Mode. In Selfie Mode, all buttons except the shutter button, video record button, and multi-selector are locked, preventing accidental touches and allowing you to hold the camera firmly while shooting. Small, Lightweight, and Slim: The Z fc's compact, lightweight design and distinctive heritage design complement a variety of styles and scenes. The basic system, combined with the kit lens, weighs the same as a 500ml bottle of water*. It's easy to carry, allowing you to capture special moments with ease. The gripless, flat design makes it easy to take in and out of your bag, even with the kit lens attached. Whether you carry it in your bag or sling it over your shoulder, the Z fc is a great companion for everyday use.
High Sensitivity, High Image Quality, ISO 100-51200. The Z fc's maximum standard ISO sensitivity is 51200*. The excellent high-sensitivity image sensor and the noise reduction of the EXPEED 6 image processing engine, also used in higher-end models, effectively suppress noise in both still images and videos, capturing vivid details and textures. It also enables you to take blur-free photos, even in dark scenes. Easily achieve high image quality not previously possible with smartphones. *The sensitivity can be increased up to the equivalent of 204800. The maximum standard ISO sensitivity for video is 25600. Uncropped 4K UHD Video The Z fc can record 4K UHD/30p video in DX format without cropping. The EXPEED 6 image processing engine delivers high-resolution images. Creative Picture Control can also be applied to video, allowing you to easily create your own unique style. Furthermore, selfie mode is activated when the vari-angle monitor is facing forward. High-quality vlog videos can be easily captured using Eye Detection AF and full-time AF (AF-F) that continuously tracks the subject. Active D-Lighting, electronic image stabilization, and focus peaking are also available for both 4K UHD and Full HD.
