Nikon Z50 Mirrorless Camera twin Lens kit - 16-50mm & 50-250mm Lens VOK050WA review
The new Nikon Z50 mirrorless camera is the smallest interchangeable-lens DX-format camera Nikon offers, and as you can probably tell, I liked it a lot. It’s small and rugged with surprisingly high build quality for the price, and its thin, sleek design is very attractive.

The Nikon Z50 offers the best quality in out-of-camera JPEGs among APS-C mirrorless cameras we've tested so far, making it a fantastic camera to buy for first-time camera buyers. As a professional's second kit, it falls a bit short.
