Nikon has announced its DX-format camera, the Nikon Z fc, sporting the latest mirrorless technology and a classic design.
The Nikon Z fc mirrorless camera is built with a lightweight magnesium alloy frame with consideration to dust and drip resistance. The exterior of the camera is also wrapped in a leather-tone material.
Aside from its classic design, the Z fc features a 20.9MP sensor, 4K Ultra HD Video recording, smartphone connectivity, and 20 Creative Picture Controls pre-set filters.
It also comes with a Vari-Angle touchscreen LCD that flips out to face the user and automatically adjusts for self-portraits.
Moreover, it has a 209-point hybrid AF system that can recognize approximately 87% of the frame horizontally and 85% vertically for precise focusing and tracking throughout more of the frame. However, the Rapid Eye-Detection AF for people and animals enables users to sharply capture the eyes of people and pets, even when they’re moving. Eye-Detection AF is also now available in the wide-area AF (L) mode.
In addition, it also allows you to automatically send photos and videos to your phone or tablet for sharing, or use Nikon SnapBridge app as a remote control.
Other than retro black and silver, the Nikon Z fc will be available in six additional color options: white, coral pink, mint green, sand beige, amber-brown, and natural gray.
