Photo Features

High-Quality Images

Capture lifelike color and fine detail from dawn to dusk with the 20.9 MP DX-format sensor. The larger sensor size delivers cleaner images with better dynamic range and low-light performance than most smartphones.

Color Presets and Picture Controls

Create and save your own Picture Control presets, or download custom Cloud Picture Controls directly from Nikon Imaging Cloud. See the effect in real time as you shoot, opening up many creative options.

Portrait Tools

Use features such as Skin Softening, Portrait Impression Balance, and face and eye-detection autofocus for both people and animals. Achieve natural-looking portraits with beautifully blurred backgrounds.

Low-Light Performance

Continue shooting after dark with confidence thanks to a maximum ISO sensitivity of 51,200 and sophisticated noise reduction that helps keep images sharp and detailed.

Built-in Flash

Use the integrated flash for balanced indoor and nighttime shots. Night Portrait mode combines slow shutter speeds with flash to create natural-looking, well-lit portraits in low light.

Performance

Capture Action

Shoot bursts at up to 30 frames per second, and take advantage of advanced features such as Pre-Release Capture¹ and powerful multi-subject detection autofocus with 3D tracking. All of this is enabled by Nikon’s latest high-performance image processing engine.

Subject Detection and Tracking

The Z50II can automatically detect and track nine different subject types, including people, dogs, cats, birds, and vehicles. Dedicated [bird] and [airplane] AF modes improve accuracy when photographing these subjects.
