Nikon needs to seriously try again. This project should have the same tenacity that Sigma takes with trying to make camera. The difference is that Nikon is far less likely to fail
I really wanted a full-frame version
This is pure disappointment

Compromised ergonomics
'Only' 20.9 megapixels
Lack of DX Z-mount lenses
Slow kit lens
Plasticky feel
Incredibly bright focus assist light at night

Best-in-class autofocus or a wider selection of native lenses
Abstract: The new Z fc is Nikon's second ever mirrorless camera with an APS-C size sensor, following the Z50 that was released in 2019. The Z fc sports a much more classic, retro design than the more modern looking Z50, featuring several familiar physical controls...
Compromised ergonomics, 'Only' 20.9 megapixels, Lack of DX Z-mount lenses
The Nikon Z fc is an unapologetically retro camera with all the mod cons you'd expect from a current mirrorless model. Its aluminium dials are a joy to operate and the body looks so pretty you'll likely display the camera when it's not in use. But the Z f...

Canon has announced the RF 14-35mm F4 L IS USM, a more affordable wide-angle alternative to its existing RF 15-35mm F2.8. The lens will be available in August with a recommended price of $1700.We've been shooting with Nikon's stylishly retro Z fc for th...
Abstract: Speaking of the rear display, the Z fc's display is 3" and has approximately 1.04M dots of resolution. The display flips out to the side, allowing it to be used as a selfie display. The vari-angle display should also prove useful for vloggers, allowing th...
As it's almost identical to the Nikon Z50 internally, it's very likely that the Nikon Z fc will produce the same excellent image quality. However, its handling is quite different as, with the exception of using a camera dial to adjust the aperture setting...
Feels great to use and in the hands, Retro controls work as well as they would in a film camera, Film modes are customisable and work really well, Supports 4K video capture, Varyangle touchscreen is a great inclusion, Charges on USB Type C
No flash, Lacks inbody stabilisation, Not a fullframe sensor, Only 20 megapixels, Wireless connections won't always work
While a flash and a bigger sensor would have been welcome, the Nikon Z Fc has something going for it not every camera achieves: it's fun.The Nikon Z Fc is so much fun to use, and a genuine delight of a camera. If you have ever used a classic camera and lo...

Fairly priced entry into Z mount,Decent image quality potential - if you invest in the right lens,Retro dial-based controls
Plasticky build quality,Slow kit lens doesn't represent camera's true capability,Autofocus not a patch on Canon's EOS R,Not full-frame - just to avoid any doubts
From afar the Nikon Z Fc is certainly eye-catching, bringing retro appeal in its design ethos. Problem is, up close, it's rather plasticky and not a patch on Fujifilm's longer-established X series range in terms of build. Furthermore, as we thought when t...

Beautiful design, Useful vari-angle touch screen, A well-struck balance of old and new, Great value
Needs more native lenses, Grip less suited to large lenses, No UHS-II support
The Nikon Z fc is a triumph of design that offers a different shooting experience to the Nikon Z50 at a great price. The vari-angle screen is also an inspired choice that embodies Nikon's old-meets-new 'fusion' concept. More advanced photographers might m...
