In this kit, the Nikon Z fc mirrorless digital camera is paired with the silver Nikkor Z DX 16-50mm f/3.5-6.3 VR and 50-250mm f/4.5-6.3. Sporting a retro design, the sleek and stylish Nikon Z fc is a cropped mirrorless camera with the versatile Z-mount and is capable for both stills and video applications. Its DX-format 20.9MP CMOS sensor is coupled with the EXPEED 6 image processor to achieve fast overall performance as well as provide high sensitivity, nuanced image quality. The EXPEED 6 processor enables a high full-resolution continuous shooting rate of 11 fps and UHD 4K video recording at 30 fps. A broad sensitivity range from ISO 100 - 51200 allows for working in a variety of lighting conditions, and is expandable up to ISO 204800 to cater for extreme low-light situations. The combination of resolution and sensor size promotes clean imagery with reduced noise throughout the sensitivity range and smooth colour transitions. The sensor design also features a reliable 209-point hybrid AF system which provides fast and accurate focusing for both stills and video applications as well as support Eye Detection AF for locking focus onto subjects eyes. UHD 4K video recording at up to 30 fps, Full HD recording at up to 120 fps, and slow motion effects are supported by the Z fc. Photos and video can be saved to the in-camera memory card. In addition, in-camera time-lapse shooting is also possible.
Reminiscent of Nikon's classic SLR film camera heritage, the physical design of the Z fc is characterised by several familiar physical controls such as dedicated precision-carved aluminum dials with engraved markings and mechanical controls for shutter speed, ISO, and exposure compensation. A large 3.0" 2.36m-dot LCD touchscreen affords bright, clear, and vivid image playback and live view shooting, along with intuitive menu navigations and settings control. In addition, the vari-angle touchscreen benefits front-facing selfies. A high-resolution 2.36m-dot OLED EVF provides clear and sharp eye-level viewing and benefits working in brignt conditions. For working in inclement or harsh conditions, the robust magnesium alloy body is dust-resistant and weather-sealed. Built-in Wi-Fi and BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) enables wireless photo and video sharing and remote camera control via its built-in Nikon SnapBridge connectivity. Live streaming and web conferencing is possible via a separately purchased USB Type-C cable. The Z fc comes supplied with a rechargeable battery, a battery charger, a camera strap, a body cap, and a rubber eye cup.
The accompanying NIKKOR Z DX 16-50mm f/3.5-6.3 VR is a very compact 24-75mm-equivalent zoom lens that covers wide-angle to portrait perspectives. Optically, the lens incorporates four aspherical and one extra-low dispersion elements to reduce aberrations for clearer and sharper imagery throughout the zoom range. For sharper handheld shooting, the Vibration Reduction image stabilisation reduces the appearance of camera shake by up to 4.5 stops.
The lens has received an application of Super Integrated Coating which aids in suppression of flare and ghosting to achieve better contrast and colour fidelity that is beneficial when working in harsh lighting condition. Each of the lenses utilises a stepping motor to provide fast, silent, and accurate autofocus. Full-time manual focus override for refined focusing is available to suit both stills and video applications; The manual focus can adjusted via the programmable control ring, which can be also set to control aperture or exposure compensation. An internal focusing design maintains the overall length of the lens during use as well as promotes speedier focusing.

The NIKKOR Z DX 50-250mm f/4.5-6.3 VR is a 75-375mm equivalent zoom lens that covers portrait to telephoto perspectives. Optically, the lens incorporate an extra-low dispersion element to reduce colour fringing and chromatic aberrations for improved clarity and greater colour accuracy. For sharper handheld shooting, the Vibration Reduction image stabilisation reduces the appearance of camera shake by up to 5 stops.
