Great solid camera.
I got this camera right before Nikon announced the Nikon zfc, and when I say right before I mean barely 24hours had passed since I purchased my Z50. I’m so glad I did since I probably would have pre-ordered the zfc and regretted the fact I didn’t buy the z50 for the very nice grip it has and just the overall “modern mirrorless” look. The zfc is pretty much a Z50 in a retro body minus the grip, but I think the body limits it to only properly using small compact lenses (16-50 kit-28mm f2.8) unlike the Z50 that has a PROPER grip for using big and small lenses alike. On another note, one thing I didn’t expect from the Z50 is how solid it feels and just how much ”quality” heft it has for its fairly small size. It feels great in the hand and it honestly makes you want to go out and take photos of everything. Previously I was using a Nikon D3200 with the 35mm and 50mm which was a solid package to take pics but I just got to the point like many photographers nowadays that felt it was time to make the mirrorless switch after many years of using a dslr. Needless to say this camera has all the bells and whistles you can ever expect from a top of the line APSC camera of today, I hope to build my Z mount glass arsenal in the future and beyond. Picture quality is beyond great even with this dinky 16-50mm lens it came with. Video quality is very good as well but not as great as the photographs this thing pumps out. If you’re on the fence about purchasing one do yourself a favor and just throw down the cash and get one. Period.

Wonderful camera! Highly recommend it!!!
First of all, I have owned many mirrorless cameras (APS-C and M4/3) and this one is by far my favorite. I purchased the camera open box satisfactory (16-50mm lens included) with very low shutter count. Camera was flawless. The only thing was that it didn't come with a battery or charger (bought them on another for cheap). I purchased a 50-250 Z lens and I am very happy with the results. We live close to a Zoo and we have taken a few pictures with both lenses. Pictures came out very sharp. I am going to try shooting video this weekend (Let's see how it goes).

Amazing Results
This camera fits in the hand very well, takes amazing pictures and 4k video look impressive, also works extremely well with my previous 18-140mm lens using the adapter... however the adapter will add about an inch to the length of the lens... but the results are outstanding... loving my Z-50 ! The attached pictures illustrate the Z-50 with adapter and 18-140mm /67mm lens, and compared in size to the Nikon D7000
