Hey guys, and welcome to the Best Options Channel! In this video, we’ve decided to review the best
nikon cameras, available on the market today! First, we will be looking at some of the best
affordable entry-level Nikon cameras that are available, then at the top premium ones
that you can buy! If you’d like to see their price, and find out more information about the
products mentioned, be sure to check the links in the description box below... So, here are
the top five, best Nikon cameras for this year! The fifth product on our list is the Nikon d3500,
also known as the best beginner Nikon camera that can be found on the market for this year,
usually priced at around 500$! The new model has been redesigned
almost completely. The d3500 got a new body, looks more elegant and modern with a row of keys on the
left side of the screen completely removed, this makes the device faster and easier to
use! Another improvement is the spring-loaded lever, that activates the live view option,
located next to the shooting mode dial on the top of the camera, also taken from the d5600 model.
Also included in the mix, is the new old AFP Nikor 18 55 millimeter, three and a half to 5.6 G,
VR lens, an ideal match for this fella! Because of the small size, don’t let its dimensions fool you,
because AFP models use a stepper motor that allows almost silent operation,
there is almost no unpleasant buzzing sound of the autofocus motor when recording video,
and the focusing speed is improved when using a live view! They’re also optically better than old
AFS versions! Behind the lens are a 24-megapixel dx CMOS sensor, without a low pass filter. A
multi-cam 1000 with 11 AF points set to mostly cover the center of the image, and the Expeed
4 that calculates everything that happens in the frame, so the hardware has remained unchanged, and
with a good simple reason, is not broken so don’t fix it, everything works quickly and accurately!
It also offers a sufficient number of options! The device is beginner-friendly, as well as fairly
priced! furthermore, the new body took away their receiver that was used to trigger the device via
the remote control, but the possibilities via the Bluetooth connection have been expanded,
so the help of this snapbridge app for iOS and Android in addition to assigning geo locations
to photos, and synchronizing time between two devices, you can now also shoot the camera!
The autofocus system is responsive and quickly captures focus in conditions with a sufficient
amount of light, but as the light decreases, it slows down! we advise you to use the center point
only in low light conditions because it’ll be the fastest and most accurate results!
Some of the pros of this product include; Excellent Image Quality… Remarkable 1,550-Shot
battery Life… Compact for a DSLR! However, a con for this product;
it has Bluetooth, but no Wi-Fi… Good stuff, a thumbs up from here!
In fourth place, we have the Nikon D7500 DX! It is usually priced at around 1000$,
and it is our option for the best for enthusiasts Nikon cameras!
the body, although it shares the same sensor with the senior Nikon D500,
is protected from dust and raindrops, small, robust, and fits very well in the hand.
The grip is shallower than that of the Nikon D750, but it is very comfortable,
which translates into easy handling in times of crisis, as well as a good balance with the vast
majority of normal lenses for this type of body! The NIKKOR fixed lenses of: 35mm f 1.8G DX,
50mm f 1.8G, and 85mm f 1.8G, balance perfectly like the 24-70mm f 2.8G zoom!
The presence of the two customizable modes U1 and U2, that Nikon has been accustomed to for
some time, are welcome, making it much easier to shoot in conditions that require different
types of settings and quick change between them; The high-quality screen reproduces the details
very well in bright light conditions, and it has a very well-implemented touch function as
well as its folding, which covers a larger angle than that of the Nikon D750. In Shooting mode,
the light can be made very easy just by touching the point on the screen that we want in focus.
Also, in Live View shooting mode, after touching the screen on the area on which we want to make
the clear, the camera shoots itself eliminating the loss of clearness, by accidentally changing
the position of the camera by pressing the shutter button if not an external remote control is used.
Integrated Wi-Fi and Bluetooth functions, available only when using Snap-bridge.
noteworthy is the appearance of a new color profile, Picture Control AUTOMAT which gives
us a fairly correct and realistic color combination, good to use when shooting
in Jpeg format and uploading directly to the Internet without further editing the frames;
Some of the pros of this product include; Good high ISO performance…
4K video… 8fps continuous shooting!
However, a con for this product is; it has only one card slot!
With its 8 frames per second, we have no reason to miss the perfect moment!
The third product on our list is the Nikon Z6 II Body! If you’re looking for the best Mirrorless
Nikon Camera that can be found on the market you are in right place! This is around 1800$!
The body and handling of the Z6 II are basically the same as its predecessor,
which means it remains a solidly built camera with a comfortable grip. The weather-sealed body
is primarily constructed from magnesium alloy, providing a good balance of weight and solidity.
The grip itself is comfortable and the front and rear dials are very well positioned so
that they are readily accessible when you're holding the camera.
The Z6 II is a subtle refresh of the existing Z6, extending the capabilities
a little, but offering a mostly similar well-rounded stills and video feature set.
The viewfinder in the Z6 II is the same 3.68M-dot OLED, as in the original model,
and the Z7 II. Nikon points out that the optics and coatings are of their own design and says
it's decreased both the refresh lag and the blackout time between shots. However, the company
hasn't put a number on either improvement. Nikon says the autofocus performance has been
incrementally improved over the original Z6, but the most notable feature change is the
addition of face and eye detection (both human and animal) to the wide-area AF mode. Previously these
features were only available in the 'Auto' area AF, meaning the camera decided where to focus.
The camera's menus are consistent with most Nikon cameras made over the last decade or so.
This means the menus are quite dense with options but the key 'Customs Settings'
section is well arranged and color-coded, which makes it easy to navigate. A My Menu tab can be
configured with either your preferred options or a list of your most recently used options.
Some of the pros of this product include; 24MP full-frame image sensor… 5-axis in-body
stabilization… Up to 14fps continuous drive! However, a con for this product;
Full-frame 4K limited to 30fps! The Z6 II comes with the latest EN-EL15c battery.
It's a 20% higher-capacity version of the 15b that came with the previous model.
The camera is compatible with earlier EN-EL15 batteries but will perform much better with the
more recent versions. USB-charging is only available with the type b and c units.
Up next meet the Nikon d850 which gets the title of the best DSLR Nikon camera you can
find in the market now, and you can purchase it for a bit higher price this time, 2600$!
The Nikon D850 is Nikon's latest high-resolution full-frame DSLR,
boasting a 46MP backside-illuminated CMOS sensor. But, in a fairly radical
departure for the series, it is also one of the company's fastest-shooting DSLRs.
The D850's body is primarily made from magnesium alloy and fairly closely resembles the D810.
The camera's grip has been reworked, making it more comfortable than the
D810 when holding the camera for long periods or with heavy lens combinations.
The most obvious visual difference between the cameras is a different viewfinder hump,
with the new camera having no built-in flash. The use of a backside-illuminated sensor,
means that the light collecting elements of the sensor are closer to the surface of the chip.
This should not only increase the efficiency of the sensor, but should also be expected to make
the pixels near the edges of the sensor better able to accept light approaching with high angles
of incidence, improving peripheral image quality. Like the D810 before it, the D850 continues
to offer an ISO 64 mode, that allows it to tolerate more light in bright conditions.
In terms of video, the D850 becomes the first Nikon DSLR to capture 4K
video from the full width of its sensor. The removal of the camera's built-in flash frees
up room for a new viewfinder, so magnification is able to leap from 0.7 times to 0.75 times,
which is the largest optical viewfinder on any Nikon DSLR.
The D850 has a 153-point AF system,
featuring 99 cross-type points. Some of the pros of this product include;
Spectacular levels of detail… 7fps and 9fps with grip… 4K full-frame video!
However, a con for this product; Lower buffer capacity at 9fps!
As with previous Nikon cameras, the D850 has intervalometer functions built-in,
so that you can capture time lapses without any external accessories.
And finally, we’ve reached the top, the gold medalist, and the title of the overall best
Nikon camera, the Nikon z50, with a price of roughly 750$ in the USA!
The Nikon Z50 is the first-generation Z-mount DX mirrorless camera with an APS-C sensor.
With a fast phase-detection autofocus system, 11 FPS continuous shooting speed, ability to record
high-quality 4K video at up to 30 FPS without any crop, and a compact, lightweight construction with
great body build and ergonomics, the Nikon Z50 is certainly a serious camera to consider for new and
existing Nikon shooters. Considering how small it is, the Nikon Z50 is built surprisingly well,
with excellent ergonomics to match. The whole front part of the camera, including the top
and the grip, is basically single-piece magnesium alloy, which is finished nicely with black paint,
some rubber, and plastic. The battery on the Nikon Z50 can be charged either via the provided
charger or via the USB port on the side of the camera. The Nikon Z50 is equipped with both Wi-Fi
and Bluetooth capabilities in order to be able to transfer images and control the camera remotely.
The Nikon Z50 features an advanced 20.9 MP BSI CMOS DX sensor that is capable of producing
superb images, especially at its base ISO of 100. Thanks to the lack of an optical low-pass filter,
you can take full advantage of the resolving power of the exceptionally sharp Z-mount lenses.
Nikon has done a great job making its first mirrorless DX camera, the Nikon Z50. It is
packed full of great features, has superb ergonomics, and has a very intuitive menu system.
Coupled with a fast EXPEED 6 processor, 11 FPS continuous shooting speed,
a decent-sized image buffer, and solid AF performance, the Z50 is a versatile choice
for doing many different types of photography, including action. The only limitation is when
tracking subjects that move fast and erratically – that’s where the Z50 showed its weakness.
Some of the pros of this product include; Compact size and handling 4K video…
11fps continuous shooting… Super-slim 'pancake' kit lens! However, a con for
this product; Awkward flip-under selfie screen! The Nikon Z50 is also a capable video camera,
thanks to its ability to shoot 4K videos with no cropping at up to 30p.
