Chronology
PredecessorNikon Z50

The Z30 is an APS-C mirrorless camera (1.5x APS Crop) announced by Nikon on June 29, 2022.[4] It is the ninth Z-mount camera body and the third APS-C Z-mount body. The Z30 is the first Z-mount camera body which does not have a built-in viewfinder, using only the articulating TFT LCD with touchscreen. The camera yields an effective 20.9-megapixel still image and 4K video (up to 30 fps).[5]

It does not include built-in sensor cleaning, nor is IBIS present, although Vibration Reduction on some Nikkor and third-party lenses is provided.

Building on the functionality of the Nikon Z50 and Nikon Zfc, this model was designed for vloggers with an emphasis on video recording functions.[1] It is compatible with the ML-L7 Bluetooth remote control (sold separately) and the SmallRig Tripod Grip 3070.[1]

Lenses

The Z30 uses the Nikon Z-mount, developed by Nikon for its mirrorless digital cameras.[5]

Nikon F-mount lenses can be used, with various degrees of compatibility, via the Nikon FTZ (F-to-Z) and FTZ II mount adapters.[6]
