Nikon Z fc hands on in Taipei

 

I just had the pleasure to get my hands on the Nikon Z fc, Nikon's recent mega hit that is also sold out here in Taiwan, and share some of my impressions. First of all, the camera is tiny. It's much smaller than I thought which is a good thing. Secondly, it looks so realistically like a film camera from certain angle, you'd never think it's a digital camera. And that small screen that displays the f-stop is really small, but I like it a lot. The camera is really solidly built, much better than a Fuji in that same segment.

 

List of best ZEISS ZM lenses for the Nikon Z fc

The Nikon Z fc is one of the most popular cameras of 2021, and by far more important than the likes of Sony Alpha A1 which delivered some amazing specs, but is way too expensive for your average consumer. The Z fc with its affordable price of around 1000 USD is a camera for everybody, and offers an amazing digital and analog experience. Much better than Fuji, there's no doubt about it. But what is currently missing are some amazing native compact manual lenses that would complement the camera, however there is an alternative available: ZEISS ZM lenses (lenses that are made for Leica M mount). I decided to create a list of best lenses that could be adapted to Nikon Z fc, and I believe they need to be silver in order to complement it.

Nikon Z fc is putting the company ahead again

Nikon is not only profitable again, but they have shown, that they are having a fantastic future ahead of them. Do you remember the doom and gloom by Youtubers like Tony Trump? Pushing the agenda of an impending bankruptcy, and how Nikon is behind everybody. Lo and behold, it's 2021, and suddenly Nikon is the company that is creating the most excitement in the camera world. Earlier this year they have announced the development of the flagship Z9, a short ime later they have launched 2 amazing macro lenses (a 50mm and 105mm), as well as the development of 2 compact lenses (28mm and 40mm), as well as an 18-140mm DX lens (see my whole list). When we thought this was everything, they shocked the industry with a retro inspired Nikon Z fc!
