Key Features
The Z 50 Creator's Kit provides you with everything you need to step up your video game in one amazingly convenient bundle. The Z 50 Creator's Kit is built around the small but mighty Nikon Z 50 and compact NIKKOR Z DX 16-50mm f/3.5-6.3 VR lens. A RØDE VideoMicro mic, Joby GorillaPod 3K kit, SmallRig Vlogging Mounting Plate and Charcoal Nikon Travel Kit Bag with hand and shoulder straps will give you all the tools needed to create your next attention grabbing video. You'll love creating your next show stopper!
With incredible video specs like 4K Ultra HD and time-lapse, in-camera editing, 1080p slow-motion, vertical video, and so much more, you’ll love creating and sharing your next show-stopper with the Z 50.
The NIKKOR Z DX 16-50mm f/3.5-6.3 VR's zoom range is ideal for everything from interviews and how-to videos to close-ups and establishing shots. Plus, its AF motor is virtually silent, so an external mic won't pick up noise from the lens during recording.
Built-in Wi-Fi® and Bluetooth make sharing a snap. Install Nikon’s SnapBridge app on your compatible smartphone to transfer photos and videos for easy sharing or to use your phone as a remote monitor or controller.
Compact in size, but big in sound quality, the RØDE VideoMicro microphone effortlessly attaches to the Z 50's hot shoe or the SmallRig bracket for pristine audio that complements the camera's outstanding video quality. No extra batteries required!
Use the included Joby GorillaPod 3K for extended reach for selfies or vlogging or as a compact tripod. Its sturdy, flexible legs can stand on virtually any surface or securely wrap around objects for stable composing and shooting.
Specially-designed for the Nikon Z 50, the SmallRig LCN2525 mounting plate allows you to attach multiple accessories via additional standard 1/4"-20 mounts and a side-mounted cold shoe—handy when using the flip-down LCD for vlogging.
The Nikon Travel Kit bag is just big enough to hold and organize the Z 50, included lens and most of the kit's accessories. A hand strap and a multi-use neck/shoulder strap for carrying either the camera or the bag itself are also included.
The Z 50 is equipped for high quality video streaming through third-party software and/or hardware (sold separately). Find out how this camera can get you streaming on social, gaming and web conference platforms.
