Description

Move beyond the smartphone camera vibe and take your video quality to the next level. The Nikon Z 30 mirrorless 4K digital camera body is a user-friendly upgrade with a cinematic look and feel, spectacular video quality and features designed for creators, influencers, and streamers. TechRadar rated it a Best Camera For Vlogging, calling it “A compact and intuitive tool for novice vloggers.” It is the smallest camera in Nikon’s Z series, so it’s easy to use handheld or on a tabletop tripod, and it is compatible with Nikon's entire line of spectacular NIKKOR Z lenses. It has a flip-out screen with touchscreen control to ensure you’re always in frame, along with a convenient smartphone app that lets you control the camera remotely. Fast, reliable autofocus with several AF Area Modes can adjust to the quick shifts in detail found in unboxing videos, how-to’s, gaming streams, video tours, and tutorials. Plus, with eye-detection autofocus, the Z 30 can automatically track the eyes and faces of humans, cats or dogs and keep focus right where you want it. If the Z 30 is your entryway into Nikon Z series products, rest assured you can upgrade your lenses or add an external mic along the way to boost the quality of your content. To help you make that step, Nikon also offers a Creator’s Accessory Kit for Z 30 with a tripod grip, external microphone and Bluetooth remote control (sold separately). When you buy from a Nikon Authorized Dealer, you also get the peace of mind of a limited one-year warranty from Nikon Inc.

  • Love this camera!
Style: w/ Lens Set: Body + 16-50mm + 50-250mm Lens
I am thoroughly enjoying this camera. I bought it for a trip to Oregon and I am so happy I did! This camera takes great, crisp photos. It has great color and the different lens allows for different views, close up and far away. I mainly used the larger lens for the landscape pictures and I use the smaller lens for portrait and family photos. It wasn't too heavy to carry around my neck. The only issue I have is with the battery charging capability. For some reason, it takes FOREVER to charge the battery using the USB option. I ended up purchasing another battery and standalone battery charger for this. I had taken it with me to Arizona, forgetting the other battery, but remembering the USB. Somehow, the battery was completely drained (despite the camera being off for the trip). I plugged the phone in with the USB and even after 5 hours, there was ZERO charge on the battery. I ended up having to use my phone for the whole trip. So, if you get this camera, I do suggest purchasing an extra battery/battery charger. I haven't really tested all the other functions as I had just received the camera but after reading the instruction manual and watching a youtube, I see that it has many different functions that can enhance pictures and that is another thing I love about this camera. I am very happy with this purchase! ... show more

  • [UPDATED] Affordable step-up from iPhone 14 pro & Sony ZV-E10 - for vlog & streaming
Style: w/ Lens Set: Body + 16-50mm + 50-250mm Lens
My interest in camera began with my iPhone 11 few yrs back and upgraded to 14 pro but soon realized its limitations while vlogging as I've to settle for front camera instead of mighty rear camera. Z30 steps-up game significantly with more control on picture quality than a smartphone for video and Elgato facecam for streaming. Invest some time in learning the basics of picture composition (which's same for all camera brands) since it's a one-time investment to unleash full potential of this little Swiss army knife semi-pro camera. Youtube has very good tutorials on basics. Drawbacks and easy fixes: 1) overheating while streaming: 4k overheats regardless of fps. Fortunately, 1080p 50fps is not overheating and can run as long as I need with Elgato 4k camlink. 1080p quality is fantastic ! Not missing 4k due to its crazy recording file sizes filling-up hard-drives quickly 2)no view-finder: don't miss this as a one coming from smartphones generation 3)no audio monitor: same as above. Never needed one while vlogging thru smartphone as I test check my levels before shoot 4) crowded ports covering display: use left-angled micro HDMI and right-angled USB-c cable adapters This cam's lightweight, portability and low price overweighs these and any other limitations. Interestingly it has 11fps which's higher than its pricier full-frame Z5 bro. Mainly using this for video & streaming. UPDATED: after looking at raving reviews on Sony ZV-E10 + sigma 16mm lens, I gave it a try but had to return it back as: 1) Nikon colors are more realistic than Sony right out of cam. Each video needs post-process to get good colors on zv-e10 2) 4k 30p is not cropped on z30 which's great for vlogging. enabling electronic-VR crops a bit on z30 but is still better than zv-e10's always cropped 4k 30p 3) zv-e10 needs catalyst browser to fix vibration issues but z30 comes with decent VR built-in kit lens 4) z30 display got touch screen both for controls and auto-focus while zv-e10 is all buttons. This's great in selfie mode when we can't see back buttons. Latter feature lets me touch any object on screen to begin auto-focus on it. No issues with auto-focus so far. 5) sony+sigma setup feels bulky & heavy to hold for vlogging and bit more desk space for streaming compared to z30 with kit lens. You almost certainly feel need for gimbal with sony. z30 grip rocks ! 6) HDMI and USB-c ports are way too crowded on zv-e10 than z30. If either one of micro-hdmi or usb-c plugs are big, you're out of luck 7) tally light on z30 is killer feature! it even blinks when it gets hot or low-battery 8) nikon menu layout is lot intuitive and easier than sony 9) z30 comes weather sealed unlike zv-e10 11) audio quality on z30 is awesome 12) after all the above, paying $300+ more for outdated zv-e10+sigma lens combo didn't make sense ONLY Con this camera has compared to more recent released mirrorless cams of other brands in this budget is lack of UVC/UAC support to let us connect via USB without needing Elgato camlink and still get Z30's excellent 1080p quality streaming ... show more

  • Premium camera with a fair price! Love it
Style: w/ Lens Set: Body + 16-50mm Lens
The Nikon Z30 has been an incredible addition to my setup. The image quality is sharp, crisp, and vibrant, with colors that pop without feeling over-processed. The camera feels solid in the hands but is still lightweight enough to carry around all day without fatigue. What I love most is how easy it is to use — the controls are intuitive, the autofocus is lightning fast, and low-light performance is way better than I expected at this price point. I’ve used it for streaming, photography, and video, and it handles all three flawlessly. For anyone who wants a reliable, high-quality camera without breaking the bank, the Z30 is a fantastic choice. It’s exceeded my expectations in every way. ... show more

  • Great Product
Style: w/ Lens Set: Body + 16-50mm Lens
The product arrived on time and in good condition. The camera itself is easy to use. It is user-friendly and the settings are easy to navigate. The included lens is sharp and video quality is amazing. I bought this camera to take videos when hiking and I’m amazed by how well it performed. Strong stabilization, clear frames, ease of use, compact form factor, and smooth adjustment screen. Coming from a DSLR, it did take a bit of time to get used to having no view finder. But once I did, it was easier to use than the view finder. The screen adjust to exposure settings, so what you’re seeing screen is the photo you’re taking. Overall great product. ... show more

  • Reliable little camera
Style: Camera Body Only Set: Body Only
I love this little camera. It has great picture quality. I can use any Z mount lens on it full frame (FX) or cropped (DX). With FTZ adapter you can use any F mount lens on it. I got this camera to use mostly for video, YouTube, talking head stuff and events. It has been working great. If you shoot in a flat profile you can apply LUTs to the footage. It's a cropped sensor so it will be a bit noisy in low light. There is no IBIS so I'm kitting mine out like a cine rig. The add weight will help to keep it stable. It's vary lite weight on it's own. Make a good carry around camera. I have not had any autofocus problems for what I use it for. It's a good vlogger camera. It shoots 1080p for 120 mins and 4k for 29mins. You can shoot logger if you get an external recorder. Like an Atomos Ninja V. Then you can shoot for as long as your battery last. The fits well in the hand. Nikon has great ergonomics. ... show more
