The Nikon Z fc checks off all the boxes on a content creator's wish list: stylish and sleek retro design, impressive image quality with the Z mirrorless system flexibility, and it's optimized for vlogging and video applications. The Z fc is a DX-format mirrorless camera sporting a 20.9MP CMOS sensor, which pairs with EXPEED 6 image processing to realize quick shooting performance up to 11 fps, UHD 4K video recording at 30p, and sensitivity up to ISO 51200. Focusing on the physical design, the Z fc stands out as a clear reference to Nikon's classic SLR film camera heritage and features several familiar physical controls on the body, including dedicated dials to adjust ISO, shutter speed, and exposure compensation. 

Also benefitting on-location shoots and longer takes, the Z fc also supports in-camera battery charging and on-the-go power via the USB Type-C port. The mixture of resolution and sensor size also contributes to clean image quality and smooth color transitions with reduced noise throughout the sensitivity range. In addition to benefitting image quality, the EXPEED 6 processor also affords a wealth of speed throughout the camera system, including a top full-resolution continuous shooting rate of 11 fps. This focusing system also supports Eye Detection AF, which uses facial recognition to help lock focus onto subjects' eyes. Precision carved aluminum dials with engraved markings and mechanical controls for shutter speed, ISO, and exposure compensation. 

A large 3" 1.04m-dot LCD screen is available for bright, clear, and vivid image playback and lives view shooting. The screen has a vari-angle design, which benefits front-facing selfie captures, and it is also a touchscreen for more intuitive operation, navigation, and settings control. A robust magnesium alloy chassis is both clouds of dust- and weather-resistant to benefit working in harsh climates and inclement conditions.BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) and Wi-Fi enable communication between the camera and a smart device and, additionally, the mobile device can remotely trigger the shutter and display a live view image from the camera to enable working from a distance.

Included with the camera body is the NIKKOR Z 28mm f/2.8 SE Lens, an ultra-compact, lightweight FX-format prime lens with a traditional Nikon heritage design. This special edition lens is designed to be a versatile wide-angle lens well-suited to a range of subjects, including landscape, architecture, and reportage.
