From 4K UHD (30p) video to timelapse movies and smooth slow motion in Full HD (120p)—the Z 30 uses the full width of its large sensor to give you 100% field of view (approx.). Framing yourself and your subject is easy.

Capture great-sounding audio via the sensitive built-in stereo mic—or an external mic. The audio menu gives options for recording your voice, or ambient sound like music and city streets. There’s a wind-noise reduction function, too.

Video and photos shot in low light look clean and professional. Shoot all the way up to ISO 25600 for video, and ISO 51200 (expandable) for stills. Keep shooting into the night with the same fast, accurate AF you rely on during the day.

If you turn the vari-angle monitor to face forwards, the camera instantly activates self-portrait mode and clears the screen for an unobstructed view. You can use the conveniently positioned record button to take snapshots or shoot video.

You get plenty of ways to customise controls and adjust settings. You can assign favourite menu items to the instantly accessible i-Menu and save frequently used settings to the camera’s Fn buttons—or to the U1/U2/U3 positions on the mode dial.

Shooting action or yourself while on the move? Video AF mode employs full-time AF to take the work out of focusing. The camera will stay locked on to your subject—no matter what they do, or how often you change composition on the fly.

Confidently shoot in any lighting situation without learning complicated settings. When shooting in Auto mode, you can quickly and easily adjust the camera’s exposure compensation so your subject or your face always appear well lit.

Whether you stream from a tight indoor space or vlog outdoors, there’s a Nikon lens that’s right for the shoot. You can use all NIKKOR Z lenses, or attach Nikon’s optional Mount Adapter FTZ II and use Nikon DSLR F-mount lenses.
