There are cameras for photographers, and then there are cameras for pre-photographers. The Nikon Z 50, Nikon’s smallest DX camera yet and first APS-C mirrorless camera, falls largely into the second category. Marketed towards Instagram users ready to upgrade from a smartphone, the Z 50 incorporates in-camera video editing and wireless video transfer while keeping to a design that channels an entry-level DSLR. But the Z 50 also launches with a built-in audience — casual Nikonographers with a stash of F-mount lenses that can be easily adapted to the mirrorless Z mount. Lacking the in-body stabilization of the full-frame Z 6 and Z 7, the Z 50 makes up for its shorter feature list with a lightweight, 14-ounce body and a tiny kit lens. After the failed Nikon 1 series, it’s good to see Nikon putting some real effort into a mirrorless camera that targets casual photographers. It’s not perfect, but the Z 50 does a lot right. The Z 50 ditches some of the high-end features of the Z 6 and Z 7, li...

Weather-sealed, ergonomic design; Excellent image quality; 11 fps burst speed; Wireless video transfers;

Autofocus struggles in low light; Few native DX lenses at launch;

With the Z 50 ($859.95), Nikon is putting the mirrorless technology developed for pricier full-frame bodies into a more portable—and more affordable—camera, built around the DX (APS-C) sensor format. It drops some features, notably in-body stabilization, but still offers an outstanding viewfinder, wide autofocus coverage, and 4K recording. Its autofocus system isn't quite as advanced as similar cameras from Fujifilm and Sony, though, and there are fewer dedicated mirrorless lenses available for the Z 50, so it's more appealing to photographers already invested in Nikon equipment, or family photographers who don't need loads of lenses. Nikon's First DX Mirrorless The Z 50 matches the looks of its full-frame siblings, with a prominent EVF hump on the top and Nikon's iconic red stripe on the handgrip. But, despite sharing the same wide-diameter lens mount, it's smaller all around. It comes in at 3.7 by 5.0 by 2.4 inches (HWD) and 13.9 ounces—the full-frame Z 6 is 4.0 by 5.3 by 2.7 i...

The Nikon Z 50 is a good mirrorless camera with a lot of appeal to photographers already invested in the system, but isn't quite as capable as its rivals.

No Sensor shift Image Stabilization, Low Battery Life: 320 shots

The Nikon Z 50 is great for landscape photography. Image quality is impressive, with excellent dynamic range to bring out more highlight and shadow detail. There isn't too much noise at higher ISO settings, so it performs okay in low light.

Great image quality., Comfortable to operate., Well-built and weather-sealed.

Not the most portable option., Mediocre battery performance.

Available at a great price and with lots to like - including build quality, handling, a very usable screen and viewfinder - the Z50 might be the new kid on the APS-C mirrorless block, but it’s easily one of the best out there.

Great handling, Attractively priced, Excellent image quality

Tilting screen mechanism no good for tripod mounting, Only a single UHS-I card slot, No joystick for selecting AF points

The Nikon Z50 has hit the ground running, so to speak, with a camera body that has excellent ergonomics, a solid design, great handling, and easy to access settings. The body is compact, giving you the benefits of a mirrorless camera system, but not too compact, and not at the expense of handling...

Excellent ergonomics and handling, Excellent image quality and noise performance, New DX Z-Mount lenses perform well, Compact camera body, Clear logical menu system (more advanced section is colour coded), Fast continuous shooting, 4K UHD video with multiple options

Limited APS-C Z mount lenses so far, Doesn't feature in-camera image stabilisation, MicroUSB socket

The Apple iPhone 14 is no match for the just-released iPhone 14 Pro, but if you ignore that, it’s one of the most effective phones around.

Great cameras, front and back, Fast performance, Good battery life, Innovative safety features

Design too familiar, Some average features

The iPhone 14 isn’t much of an upgrade over the iPhone 13, but it’s still a great device and an upgrade for anyone coming from the iPhone 11 or older.

Great camera, Good battery, Emergency features are cool, Still excellent performance

Display could use some upgrades

Apple has given select media outlets and YouTubers access to the new iPhone 14 ahead of when it begins arriving in customers' hands on Friday, September 16. There are two models of the ‌iPhone‌ 14, the standard 6.1-inch ‌iPhone‌ 14 and the larger 6.7-inch ‌iPhone‌ 14 Plus.

Nikon shows why not everyone needs a professional camera with the successful Nikon Z50.

Very good picture and video quality (4K), complete ergonomics, compact and light, fast autofocus and good shooting pace.

Lacks image stabilizer, imprecise tracking focus, multiple touch focus, moderate brightness on the kit zoom.
