Nikon Z fc Digital Camera with Z 28mm f/2.8 SE Lens

Design inspiration from a legendary camera
Here, there is passion in the detail. The pentaprism design and the balance between black and silver elements on the Nikon Z fc's body reflect the FM2, as do the adoption of a circular eyepiece for the electronic viewfinder (EVF), the design of the dials, and the inscribed Nikon logo from the 1970-80s. Reliable robustness, meanwhile, is achieved by employing magnesium alloy.

Simplified operation and creative expression
The top of Nikon Z fc's body features three dials and a small window that displays the aperture. The dials control shutter speed, exposure compensation and ISO sensitivity, enabling setting changes with simple operation. Further, the i button and i menu, which allow users to quickly adjust a variety of settings with the press of a button, can be customised based on the user's individual shooting preferences.

For the first time in a Nikon Z series camera, the Nikon Z fc supports exposure compensation during AUTO mode, enabling users to achieve their desired expression by increasing brightness and enhancing silhouettes, etc. The camera also features 20 Creative Picture Control options that deliver unique expressions. By selecting themes with different parameters such as hue, toning and saturation, users can express a variety of moods, as well as adjust effects to their taste.

Enhanced focus capabilities and vari-angle shooting
The Nikon Z fc supports Eye-Detection AF and Animal-Detection AF with the shooting of stills and video—features originally introduced on the Nikon Z 7II and Nikon Z 6II. The wide-area AF (L) AF-area mode is supported, further ensuring the clear capture of eyes and faces by limiting the focusing area. Continuous focus on the eyes of the intended subject when there are several people in the frame, or the tracking of eyes of a pet that's moving, can also be achieved.

The capture of clear stills and videos in dark situations is made possible by covering a wide standard sensitivity range of ISO 100-51200*. Additionally, vertical shooting from low or high angles is enabled with the adoption of the first vari-angle monitor among Z series cameras. When the monitor is rotated to the front, the camera automatically switches to self-portrait mode, enabling smooth selfie shooting with touch operation.

Increased connectivity via SnapBridge Ver. 2.8
The SnapBridge app can be used to transfer photos and videos recorded with the camera to a smart device**, making it easy for users to share them on social media. The latest camera firmware can also be obtained through the application.

Snapbridge Ver. 2.8, with a new user interface, now supports two automatic connection modes: foreground mode and background mode. The foreground mode connects with the camera only when the app is activated, reducing camera battery consumption. The background mode features a constant connection, transferring images automatically even when the app is not activated.

Additional camera features
• A natural view with minimum aberration is achieved with the EVF that employs an organic EL panel
• Video recording supporting 4K UHD without crop using the DX-based movie image area
• Supports Full-time AF (AF-F) dedicated for video recording
• Slow-motion video shooting is made easy by simply selecting an image size and frame rate
• Supports Webcam Utility, software that enables the Nikon Z fc to be used as a web camera
• Product package and accompanying camera strap match the style of Nikon Z fc's heritage design
• Supports USB power delivery with the camera turned on as well as USB charging


The Nikon Z 28mm f/2.8 SE- a Special-edition f/2.8 prime lens

Designed to match the Z fc DX mirrorless camera, this special-edition Z series lens combines the latest optical design with a classic look and feel. Pair it with the Z fc and you'll get a 42 mm DX crop that's perfect for candid portraits and vibrant vlogs. Use with a full-frame Nikon Z camera and you'll get a 28 mm wide-angle view.

Iconic—it's in the family
Just like the Z fc mirrorless camera, the NIKKOR Z 28mm f/2.8 (SE) is all about original design details from back then, and cutting-edge performance for today. Day or night. Indoors or out. Stills or video. You get sharp, richly detailed images and head-turning style.

Classic look
The fonts used for the NIKKOR Z 28mm f/2.8 (SE) lens name match those used on AI Nikkor lenses from the era of SLR film photography.

Classic feel
Faithfully recreated from original blueprints, the texture of the control rings recalls the feel of Nikon's legendary SLR lenses.

Softly blurred backgrounds
Photos or movies. Vlogs or live streams. This lens lets you put your subject in sharp focus against a beautifully blurred background. The wide Z mount and f/2.8 rounded 7-blade aperture give you incredibly creamy, rounded bokeh.

Dynamic close-ups
From stylish food photography to bold portraits, this lens is stunningly sharp, even when focusing at close range. A minimum focus distance of just 0.19 m lets you shoot with the camera just 19 cm away from your subject.

Fast, silent autofocus
The Nikon Z multi-focusing system is fast, smooth, accurate, and quiet. Aberrations are drastically reduced, which helps your lens find focus quickly—even when shooting at close range. The silence is ideal when shooting video.

Captivating video
Paired with your Z fc mirrorless camera, this small prime lens lets you create great-looking movie clips and video content. You'll get incredible sharpness and beautiful depth of field, and you can change focus without affecting angle of view. Plus, this lens is so lightweight it's easy to use when shooting handheld or with a gimbal.

Small
This unobtrusive lens is a thrill to shoot with and easily small enough to keep on the camera. Be ready for every fleeting look and must-film moment.

Adaptable
The NIKKOR Z 28mm f/2.8 (SE) is easy to use in any situation and always discreet. Set the silent control ring to control focus, aperture, exposure compensation, or ISO.
