Nikon Z50 Review by Ted Forbes

Ted Forbes:

The Nikon Z50 is the first DX mirrorless camera from Nikon. Its essentially a much smaller and compact version of the Nikon Z6. I’ve been shooting on this camera for a few weeks now and I’m extremely impressed. I really didn’t expect this camera to be this good. The intention was to make a smaller mirrorless body at a lower price point as an alternative to the full frame cameras. Nikon did this but really didn’t hold any features back – its VERY good.
