A new Nikon Z video-oriented camera is rumored to be announced later this year (similar to the Sony FX3)

By [NR] admin | Published: March 13, 2025


I have been reporting for a while that Nikon will release a new video-oriented Z-mount camera with some RED tech inside (not a new RED camera with Z-mount – we already got that). I have some new information on those rumors. The new model will be based on the Nikon Z6 III (same sensor), but the camera body will have a completely new video-oriented design (no EVF) – something similar to the Sony FX3 and the Nikon Z30:


The official announcement is expected later this year – most likely in the third or fourth quarter. I do not know what the new line will be called – Nikon Zv or Z6v, maybe?

What about the Nikon Z30 and Zfc APS-C cameras?

By [NR] admin | Published: March 11, 2025


The Nikon Z30 and the Zfc APS-C mirrorless cameras will soon be 3 and 4 years old (the Z30 was announced in June 2022, while the Zfc came out in June 2021).

Nikon seems to be on a 4-5 years refresh cycle for their mirrorless cameras.

I am actually surprised that Nikon hasn’t updated the Z30 and Zfc yet, given that other companies have released several compact APS-C mirrorless cameras since the introduction of the two Nikon models (Sony ZV-E10+II, Sony a6700, Sony FX30, Canon EOS R100, Canon EOS R50). Some brands have even returned to fixed-lens compact cameras (Canon PowerShot V1, Canon RV, Panasonic). But then again, Nikon was never big on APS-C cameras since the days of the D300s.

The Nikon Z30 camera body is currently $100 off (up to $250 off with kit lens).

The Nikon Z30 was the best-selling camera in Japan, according to BCN.
