Z30 to Z50ii big enough upgrade?

it has the same exact sensor. It doesn't have the same sensor. Although Nikon introduced a 20.9MP sensor in 2017 with the D500, it's undergone two major upgrades since then: the first to the Z30/Z50/Zfc's sensor to add phase detect autofocus and improve readout speed, and again for the Z50II to give

Low light photography?

Your main issue isn’t the Z30, it’s low light + autofocus limits + movement. First thing: in dark scenes, autofocus struggles because there’s not enough contrast.

Z70-180mm with Z50 II?

You REALLY want a VR lens. Let me say that again. You must get a lens with VR. If you have DX Z-mount the best and lowest priced option is the AF-S 55-300 VR. Ues, it need an FTZ but the combo of the lens and FTZ is still smaller than a Nikon Z-mount 300mm lens You can buy this used for $200. It wor
