Nikon Z50 in the heart of Milan Fashion Week 2020 by NikonLand:

It’s Fashion Week in Milan. And I received the Nikon Z50 Experience Kit on trial from Nital Spa, the official distributor of Nikon products in Italy.

Inside its beautiful case – dangerously similar to that of the unrivaled Nikon Z 58 / 0.95 Noct – there is everything you need to test the camera on the field.

The wonderful Nikon Z50 Experience Kit, you can pick up it in your local shop in order to try the Z50 directly on the field: the camera, two lenses, the FTZ adapter, battery, charger. Only the memory card is missing. I put inside a 128 GB SanDisk SD card. Ready? It would be very easy to mount a couple of high-end lenses and go around Milan to shoot ad models and wealthy ladies on shopping. Too easy. No, I want to go with the Z50 kit. I add the Nikkor Z 85mm f/1.8 S because it could be one of the lenses that I would buy if I had a Z50 (I already have Z6 and Z7 so I think I’m already ok for now). And I want to shoot mostly in jpg and black and white with some of the new Picture Controls inserted by Nikon in the Z50. To make photos as ready as possible to use, share via Snapbridge or print if I really like someone. The city is full of people. And on the walls of many buildings in the center under renovation, there are mega posters of the most important brands in the fashion world.
