Mirrorless D500
Sadly, I don't think there will be. I was convinced that Nikon would release a $1500 APS-C camera with IBIS, maybe dual card slots and nicer specs than the Z50II (maybe a better EVF, slightly larger body etc) to give a successor to the D7500 (if not the D500), but Nikon released the $1700 Z5II inste

Looking to upgrade.
Nikon Z50 II and with an FTZ ... Nikkor 18-140 mm f/3.5-5.6, Nikkor 70-300 mm f/4.5-6.3, Nikkor 50 mm f/1.8G, Tokina 10-20 mm f/2.8G I mean, you can do that, but I wouldn't. Simply put, the new 16-50, 18-140, 50-250, and all wide angle options put the older F-mount lenses to shame. An FTZ is an expe

Z50II vs Z5II
Nikon Z50 II is lightweight & compact and so are the kit lenses. Unfortunately, there are very few professional and semi-professional grade lenses. What's more, the body relies on the built-in touch display for a number of interactions, which can quickly become an issue. Especially if it's below 0 C

Official Question Thread! Ask /r/photography anything you want to know! April 03, 2026
Z50 II has the same size sensor as Z30, so the improvement in low light would be limited. Full frame gives you an improvement of about one stop of light at the same aperture number. But what is your budget for lenses? Full frame lenses tend to be expensive.

Z50II vs Z5II
How do you like it? I have been tempted by Z30 so many times ...that with 16-50 2.8 would be awesome. Nikon has (and always had) terrific DX bodies but crippled by DX lens options. During D500 days Nikon had just one fast native DX lens the 16-80 and forced users to get onto FX. During the DSLR days

Convince me why Nikon Z50 II is a bad buy and should go for Sony?
Keep in mind the Nikon Z50 II has a 9 years old low resolution sensor.so not exactly up to date.also native lens choices are very limited.these are the 2 big cons of Z50 II vs Sony platform.

Tamron mount isn't snug
My Z50II had play on a Tamron 150-500 and my current Nikon 180-600. Slightly annoying.

Can I outgrow my iPhone with $2K, or am I just buying expensive disappointment?
Are you mixing up the Z50 ii and Z5 ii? You are recommending crop sensor lenses for a full frame camera, which frankly makes zero sense.

Non-professional gear
maybe you’d get away with the nikon z50 ii with the 50-250, f6.3 is pretty dark but i can’t imagine they’d call it professional

Z50II vs Z5II
Recommend Z5 II for full frame. Z5 II has more lens than Z50 II. https://alikgriffin.com/nikon-z-mount-lenses https://lesdeuxpiedsdehors.com/en/nikon-z-mount-lenses https://cameradecision.com/compare/Nikon-Z5-II-vs-Nikon-Z50-II
