- Key Specs
- Image Sensor Size: APS-C (23.6 x 15.7 mm)
- Effective Pixels: 20.9 megapixels (The actual number of pixels which make up the viewable image.)

- General
- Brand: Nikon
- Model Number: 1737
- Product Name: Z 30 4K Video Mirrorless Camera (Body Only)
- Color: Black
- Digital Camera Type: Mirrorless Camera Body Only
- Imaging
- Image Sensor Type: CMOS (CCD and CMOS are the two main technologies used in image sensors. CCD, the older of the two types, turns analog light signals into digital pixels. This conversion happens without distortion, resulting in high-quality images. Newer CMOS sensors use transistors at each pixel to move electrical charges. CMOS sensors are typically less expensive, but also require more light to create distortion-free images.)
- Image Sensor Size: APS-C (23.6 x 15.7 mm)
- Total Pixels: 21 megapixels (Generally, the more pixels, the higher the image resolution and the finer the detail that can be seen.)
- Digital Zoom: 1x (A digital zoom is accomplished electronically, with no adjustment of the camera's optics, and no optical resolution gained in the process. The existing data is not enhanced or added to, merely displayed at a lower resolution, thereby giving an illusion of an enlarged image.)
- In-Camera Image Stabilization: false (This feature helps reduce image blurring from camera motion. In-camera stabilization means the image sensor itself moves to counteract detected motion.)
- Low Light/High Sensitivity: true (High sensitivity digital imaging devices are designed to work in low light conditions to produce a high dynamic range image.)
- Image File Format(s): JPEG, RAW (Standardized software format(s) of storing digital images. The type of format chosen for capturing and compressing the image can determine quality, level of detail, and storage space required.)

- Exposure Control
- Shutter Speeds: 1/4000 – 30 sec. (step of 1/3 EV), bulb, time (The length of time the shutter remains open when the shutter release is activated, expressed in fractions of seconds. The longer the shutter is open, the more light that is able to be captured by the camera sensor.)
- Brightness Control: true (Allows the camera to adjust the brightness of a captured image for optimal exposure.)
- Burst Mode: true (Also referred to as continuous shooting. This feature captures multiple shots in rapid succession.)
- Burst Rate: 11 frames per second
- Self Timer: true
- Self-Timer Delay: 2 seconds, 5 seconds, 10 seconds, 20 seconds
- Shooting Modes: Auto, P: programmed auto with flexible program, S: shutter-priority auto, A: aperture-priority auto, M: manual, U1, U2 and U3: user settings modes (Exposure modes employed by the photographer to control the optimal aperture, shutter speed, ISO, and other settings for capturing specific subjects/scenes. Examples include Aperture-Priority, Macro, and Manual modes.)
- Panorama Mode: false
- White Balance Modes: Auto (3 types), natural light auto, direct sunlight, cloudy, shade, incandescent, fluorescent (3 types), flash, choose color temperature (2500 K–10,000 K), preset manual (up to 6 values can be stored), all with fine-tuning except choose color temperature (Settings that calibrates how the color white is rendered in an image/video, reducing the appearance of unnatural contrasts caused by various light sources.)
- Effective Pixels: 20.9 megapixels (The actual number of pixels which make up the viewable image.)
- Lens
- Lens Mount Compatibility: Nikon Z

Great content camera
This is my first ever mirrorless camera and I must say I love the image, and video quality. This is a great camera for content creation. I purchased the camera for youtube talking head videos and it works really well for that. But as began using the camera more I began loving taking photos with the camera. My only gripe with the camera was the over heating after about 30 minutes of 4k video recording, that is probably the main reason I didn't give the camera 5 stars. The specs are a little outdated I wish we had 4k60p at least but the price of this camera has gone down so much from when it was first released. So you would be hard pressed to find a camera that has those advanced features for this price.

great little photography video camera
good little inexpensive photography and video camera. I own other brands, but nikon seems to fit my hands. While this isn't the smallest aps-c camera it is nice to hold. The 20mp is good for everyday photography, and landscape you might want more mp. This is 20mp so it is close to 4k, you won't get any crop factor when recording in 4k. I think sony with a tad higher MP will crop the sensor. If you need a headphone jack you can always use an external recorder that attaches to the mic input here. G to Nikon website (not other random website) to download the pc software. I used this for Skype for 45min. I recommend the kit lens as it is really small. This is body only which means you have other nikon lenses.
