Nikon Z FC review
As always, there is the conflict of interests involved in seeing a product that “I want” as well as considering "I need", and the Nikon Z fc very definitely falls into the highly desirable category of "I want".
Pros:
- Beautiful retro design, Control via analogue dials, Fast and accurate AF, Very high build quality, Excellent ergonomics, Good quality video, Excellent EVF
Cons:
- No inbuilt VR, No weather resistance, Some controls too easily nudged

Nikon Z FC review
The Nikon Z fc is a desirably retro-fashioned yet affordable entry point into Nikon’s growing Z series mirrorless camera lineup, providing access to a growing number of lenses and accessories.
Pros:
- Stylish design, Growing lens lineup, Manual controls, Touchscreen
Cons:
- ‘Only’ an APS-C sensor, Lacks the waterproofing

Nikon Z fc review
The Nikon Z fc is a triumph of design that offers a different shooting experience to the Nikon Z50 at a great price. The vari-angle screen is also an inspired choice that embodies Nikon's old-meets-new 'fusion' concept. More advanced photographers might miss the lack of weather-proofing and a larger full-frame sensor, especially considering current native lens availability. But for everyone else, the Z fc is a great mix of retro design and mirrorless shooting power.
Pros:
- Beautiful design
- Useful vari-angle touch screen
- A well-struck balance of old and new
- Great value
Cons:
- Needs more native lenses
- Grip less suited to large lenses
- No UHS-II support

Nikon Z FC Mirrorless Digital Camera Body Only Black With Kit Box - Brand New review
While a flash and a bigger sensor would have been welcome, the Nikon Z Fc has something going for it not every camera achieves: it’s fun. The Nikon Z Fc is so much fun to use, and a genuine delight of a camera.
Pros:
- Feels great to use and in the hands, Retro controls work as well as they would in a film camera, Film modes are customisable and work really well, Supports 4K video capture, Vary-angle touchscreen is a great inclusion, Charges on USB Type C
Cons:
- No flash, Lacks in-body stabilisation, Not a full-frame sensor, Only 20 megapixels, Wireless connections won't always work

Nikon Z FC review
It should come as no surprise that Nikon, one of the original 35mm film SLR makers, made such an enjoyable, timelessly classic camera as the Nikon Z fc
Pros:
- Impressive photo & video quality, Timeless design & good user experience, Solid durability, Portable & versatile, Competitive value among retro style category & price point
Cons:
- Adequate autofocus & speed, could be improved, Native Z-mount lens selection is still limited, but expanding, Battery life is adequate, in-camera charging is usable

Nikon Z fc Review
The Nikon Z fc is an APS-C mirrorless camera that successfully brings back the design of the company's film cameras. It offers plenty of hands-on controls, a vlogger-friendly fully articulating touchscreen, excellent still and video quality, and plenty of customizability. It could use refinement in a few areas, but for those looking for an eye-catching camera that can capture the moment for social media and more, the Z fc is a solid choice.
Pros:
- Those looking for a light, inexpensive and stylish ILC with direct controls and vlogging-friendly features.
Cons:
- Those who prefer a more substantial-feeling body, best-in-class autofocus or a wider selection of native lenses.

Nikon Z FC review
Almost identical to the Nikon Z50 internally, the Nikon Z fc produces the same excellent image quality with noise controlled well up to ISO 6,400. However, its handling is quite different as it has shutter speed, ISO and exposure compensation dials which are combined with a PASM exposure mode...
Pros:
- Retro styling, Traditional exposure controls, Vari-angle touchscreen
Cons:
- No Auto setting on the ISO or shutter speed dials, Traditional exposure controls combined with PASM exposure mode switch, No joystick for setting the AF point
