Chronology
SuccessorNikon Z f

The Nikon Z fc, announced on 29 June 2021 and released in July 2021, is a mirrorless interchangeable-lens camera with the Nikon Z-mount with a MSRP of $960 body only, in the US.[1][2]

It is based on the DX-format Nikon Z 50 and has a classic design with control dials, similar to the Nikon FM2, an F-mount film camera launched in 1982. The body is made from magnesium alloy and carbon composite materials. The set includes a Nikkor Z 28mm ƒ/2.8 lens (Special Edition) designed to match the body.[3]

The name "fc" is taken from the "f," which represents the fusion of Nikon's history and technology, and the "c," which represents the casual use of a camera with a classic design.[4] On 2 July 2021, Nikon announced that the Z fc "may not be available by the launch date due to higher than expected reservations".[5][6]

The Z fc has won the Camera Grand Prix 2022 Editors Choice R&D Award.[7]
