The Nikon Z30 offers the ultimate pairing of portability with quality. This DX-format (crop frame) sensor mirrorless camera is both sleek and simple while boasting great specs. Here are the standout features:

An Innovative Z Mount

The Z30 is a crop sensor option in the Nikon Z series lineup. The smaller sensor means a smaller overall build but even though it's a smaller camera, it does not sacrifice the Z series' signature large-diameter mount for attaching new Z mount lenses. Like the others in the Z series, the Z30 has a reduced flange distance (the distance between a lens' mount and the surface of the sensor). Having a large optical element very close to the sensor's surface means fewer aberrations, greater light-gathering ability, and better image performance overall. This camera can also be paired with an optional adapter for use with most of Nikon's F mount lenses.

Creator-Ready with Vlogging Functionality

This camera was purpose-built for vlogging and live streaming. Continuously record for over 2 hours or live stream at 4K with a variety of apps. The compact design has a 3" fully-atriculating touchscreen and special attention was given to audio with a built-in top stereo mic as well as a 3.5mm port for external mics. Digital e-VR image stabilization helps smooth out handheld video.

UHD 4K Video, Great Low Light Performance, and Quick Autofocus

Equipped with 4K and slow motion capabilities, this camera is a great option for those looking to shoot video but need to keep the load light – in fact, this is currently the lightest and smallest camera in the Z collection, even beating out the Z50. The robust EXPEED 6 image processor balances speed with high sensitivity. The sensor boasts a 209-point hybrid AF system that also supports Eye Detection AF.

The Nikon Z30 is a unique multimedia tool that is ideal for travel and is especially suited to on-the-go creators or anyone looking for an enjoyably simple and comfortable camera that can take advantage of Nikon's high quality Z mount lenses.
