Description

When was the last time you really took a picture? Concentrated on a scene. Observed it, framed it and changed settings – and finally pressed the shutter release to capture it in an everlasting picture. The Nikon Z fc brings this to you in full. It is a compact, lightweight, mirrorless camera coming in a body inspired by the FM2 – a Nikon icon. The tactile dial operation lets you slow down and enjoy each step of image-making. Now take a step back from your busy life and start turning simple moments into special, timeless photographs.
Photography is not simply about the outcome but also every step in between. The Nikon FM2, one of many Nikon’s iconic cameras, enriched each of those steps with the joy of photography and was widely cherished by many users. The Z fc aims to follow in those footsteps and employs an exterior design with details carefully crafted to evoke that iconic camera. Beyond the camera body, you can also find a complementary design style in the two kit lenses, the NIKKOR Z DX 16-50mm f/3.5-6.3 VR and NIKKOR Z 28mm f/2.8 (SE).

• An iconic look and feel
• The atmosphere of the FM2 lives on in the Z fc’s overall body size, as well as the balance and positioning of each part. The back of the camera monitor features leather-like grain to recreate the feel of a film camera.
• Lenses completing the look
• NIKKOR Z DX 16-50mm f/3.5-6.3 VR featuring silver coating and NIKKOR Z 28mm f/2.8 (SE) inspired by the FM2’s contemporary manual NIKKOR lenses.
• Logo from the 1970-80s
• The camera body is engraved with the Nikon logo used on the camera bodies of the 1970-80s.
• Round like the FM series
• The eyepiece recreates the FM series’ circular design.
• Detail-oriented top body design
• The positioning of dials and the design of the shutter-release button have been carefully determined to resemble the FM2.
• Uncompromising craftsmanship
• Each dial features carved-out aluminum knurling and engraved numbers on top.
• Enjoy each step with tactile operation
• Put your heart into each picture and enjoy every part of the process, feeling each step in the touch of your finger as you rotate the dials. The Z fc features three dials on the top body – for shutter speed, ISO sensitivity and exposure compensation – as well as a small window displaying the aperture. Together, they let you visually confirm basic camera settings at a glance. The easy-to-view electronic viewfinder (EVF) helps you concentrate on your scene, while the vari-angle, touchscreen monitor opens up a versatile range of shooting possibilities.
• Wherever you go, whatever your style
• The Z fc’s design fits all kinds of styles and scenes while retaining a compact, lightweight form: You’ll want to take it with you wherever you go. The basic Z fc kit weighs less than a 600-ml plastic bottle of water, while its flat design without a grip makes it easier to slip the camera in and out of your bag, even with the kit lens attached. Whether in your bag or over your shoulder, the Z fc is a great companion for your everyday creativity.
• Catch the eye of your friends – and pets
• Sharp focus on the subject’s eyes powerfully enhances the impression that your images will make. The Z fc’s Eye-Detection AF and Animal-Detection AF help you sharply capture the eyes of your family, friends and pets, even when they’re moving. The camera also intelligently recognizes the eyes of multiple subjects in the frame for both stills and video.
• Incredible images, even in dark scenes
• Experience image quality that couldn’t possibly be achieved with your smartphone. The Z fc lets you raise the sensitivity up to ISO 51200, delivering photos and videos with minimum noise, featuring clear details and textures. With the ISO sensitivity dial, you can adjust the setting quickly, as well as confirm the changes being made in real time through the monitor or EVF, letting you enjoy each step of the adjustments while shooting.
• Express your feelings, recreate the mood
• The 20 Creative Picture Controls can add different nuances to your images. By setting them before the shoot, you can minimize the image deterioration often caused by postproduction and confirm the appearance in real time through the monitor or EVF. All these options are now at your fingertips and can be applied to both photos and video. In addition, eight more standard types of Picture Controls are also available.
• Seamless transfer of images and videos
• Transferring images and videos has never been easier and more stable with SnapBridge Ver. 2.8, Nikon’s unique app that connects the camera and your smartphone. By installing the SnapBridge app on your smart device, you can easily send stills and videos via Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. In addition, two different automatic connection modes between a camera and your smart device are now selectable – foreground and background. The latest camera firmware can also be obtained via the app – much simpler than downloading to a memory card via computer.
• Everything from impressive 4K UHD/30p to vlogging
• In addition to amazing stills, the Z fc lets you shoot 4K UHD/30p video all on your own. Vlogging is easy thanks to the self-portrait mode, activated with the vari-angle screen turned to the front, together with Eye-Detection AF and the full-time AF (AF-F) mode, which tracks the subject during video recording. Slow-motion video and timelapse video can also be created through simple operation.
• Upgrade your online encounters
• Connect the Z fc to your computer and let its image quality give your online communication a boost. Nikon’s Webcam Utility software makes it extremely easy to establish connection between a Nikon camera and a computer. The compact body with its vari-angle monitor, and the combination of camera and NIKKOR Z DX 16-50mm f/3.5-6.3 VR, make the Z fc extra flexible – a perfect alternative to a webcam.
