Retro-Styled DX Mirrorless Camera with Dial-Led Controls
Overview
The Nikon Z fc puts a 20.9 MP DX sensor inside a body modelled on the Nikon FM2 of 1982. Shutter speed, ISO and exposure compensation each get their own metal dial on the top plate, and a small window shows the aperture, so you can read how the camera is set before you switch it on. This is the black finish, supplied with the retractable NIKKOR Z DX 16-50mm f/3.5-6.3 VR.
Key features
Controls you read with your eyes, not through a menu
- Three dedicated dials: shutter speed, ISO and exposure compensation, machined in metal, in the FM2 layout.
- Aperture window on the top plate, so the whole exposure triangle is visible at a glance.
- Vari-angle touchscreen: a 3.0-inch, 1040k-dot LCD that swings out and rotates, for waist level, overhead and to-camera work.
