This is Nikon’s first move after the acquisition of RED Camera. Initially, they introduced a LUT (Look-Up Table) that exhibits a color profile similar to RED Cinema cameras for their Nikon mirrorless system cameras, specifically those capable of recording in log format. However, this is just a small step towards a major announcement ?, the btw, we have already shared our wishlist for Nikon next RED Komodo camera with Z Mount – Nikon KOMODO Z – What Can We Expect from Nikon?
The Digital Photography Review team has recorded videos with all new LUTs and has demonstrated them beautifully, allowing you to see the color differences, contrast types, and dynamic range each lens provides.
Nikon Z 50mm 1.4 lens has finally been announced. The lens is very reasonably priced, considering it’s a full-frame lens with a 1.4 aperture. I think other camera makers should learn from Nikon, how affordable and reasonably priced F1.4 lenses are becoming for their Z mount. If native lenses are available at such reasonable prices, why would users look for third-party lenses?
Close minimum focus distance lets users get as near as 14.5 in (0.37 m) from the subject, which is great for flowers, still life and food photography.
Nine-blade diaphragm helps to create a natural, circular bokeh for a pleasing out of focus area.
Focus breathing is effectively suppressed to minimize the shift of the angle of view when adjusting the focus.
Near Silent operation for video production, with a click-less control ring and near silent lens drive thanks to the use of STM motors.
Weather Sealed and designed with careful consideration for dust- and drip-resistant performance.

I captured the casual expression of a person peeking through the leaves. By opening the aperture to f/1.4, the focused eye area is sharp, while the leaves in the foreground and background are softly blurred, enveloping the person. This is a shot that subtly conveys her feelings.
The neutral perspective of the 50mm and the large foreground and background bokeh produced by the maximum aperture of F1.4 make people stand out in a three-dimensional way. Another feature of the 50mm lens is the high degree of freedom it offers, allowing you to change the impression of the subject in a variety of ways depending on the distance and angle.
This image was taken using RAW data, which was converted to TIFF or JPEG using software such as NX Studio, and then finished as a work of art by the photographer using software from another company.

This is the perfect time to buy the Nikon Z7 Mark II camera since Nikon is offering a massive $1000 discount on the camera body. At the same time, we have the latest Nikkor Z 28-75mm f/2.8 G2 lens, which can resolve sensors up to 50 megapixels effortlessly due to its advanced optics. So if you are interested in a high-resolution camera, this is the perfect time to buy it, and the discount is available only until September 15, 2024 (so hurry).
We have never seen such a massive discount on a camera body. It also indicates that there may be a chance that the Nikon Z7 Mark III camera is in the announcement pipeline ?, and Nikon might be clearing up stock of the existing Z7 Mark II camera. Whatever the reason, the Z7 Mark II is now available at its lowest price.
We have some strong hints from Nikon Rumor Mill, that Nikon’s Z50 Mark II camera is coming, But before we begin to discuss the core specifications, the most disappointing thing we learned is that the camera will have the same 20-megapixel sensor.
Nikon Z50 II Rumored Specs
Updated body design
Expeed 7
A vari-angle screen like the Z6 III
USB-C
Will use the same Nikon EN-EL25 battery
Official announcement: soon (before the end of 2024)
The same 20.9MP DX-format CMOS sensor
The launch of the camera is expected sometime in September or October. We will update you when we get any new information related to the upcoming Z 50 Mark II camera.
As per the latest Rumors suggesting the “Nikon Z9s Project” started, the camera aims to compete against the Canon R1 camera. If everything goes as planned inside Nikon Z9s camera will mark its presence in Q4 of 2025. —
TNC Take – Historically, Nikon tends to release an “S” version or incremental upgrade of their flagship models before launching an entirely new generation. Given the Z9’s success, a Z9s is a logical step for Nikon to maintain momentum in the competition while refining key features like sensor, autofocus, processing power, and video capabilities. Stay tuned more updates coming
