According to reliable sources, Nikon will soon release a new camera, the Z50II. According to previous reports, the rumored specifications of the camera are as follows: 


1. The body design has been updated, 

2. It uses a 20.9-megapixel image sensor (same as the previous generation, but it cannot be confirmed yet), 

3. It has an Expeed 7 image processor, 

4. It has the same flip screen as the Z63 camera, 

5. It has a USB-C interface, 

6. It uses an EN-EL25 battery.


In addition, according to Nikon's past practice, after the Z50II is updated, Nikon Zfc and Z30 are also expected to be updated, but later.


IBIS?

I noticed that quite a lot of people are concerned about whether the new Z50II will have IBIS. Currently, there is no news to prove that the Nikon Z50II will have IBIS. But it is worth noting that the previous kit lens NIKKOR Z DX 16-50mm f/3.5-6.3 VR has VR image stabilization. Although there is no IBIS, the image stabilization on the lens can make up for it.


Of course, the premise is that Nikon is willing to release more APS-C lenses with image stabilization.If you want to buy a Z mount lens without image stabilization, but are frustrated by the lack of IBIS, perhaps the best solution is to invest in a tripod.

Some thoughts

The three Nikon APS-C brothers are my favorite APS-C cameras. They have almost perfect operation logic and a mount that is common to Nikon full-frame cameras. Among many APS-C camera competitors, Nikon may not have an advantage in megapixels and video capabilities, but its reasonable price and easy-to-use operation logic make it very competitive.


The Z50 has a pretty good viewfinder and acceptable megapixels, but unfortunately the image processor and USB interface are relatively backward. If the rumors are true, these two pain points have been solved, and there are reports that the design of the camera body has also been upgraded. The only pity is that Nikon did not come up with a CMOS that can compete with high-end APS-C cameras such as Sony a6700 or Canon R7. But if the price increase is not large, the Z50II will still be the focus of potential consumers of APS-C mirrorless cameras.
