  • PositiveElaborate microphone
  • PositiveVery compact and light
  • PositiveLarge handle
  • NegativeWithout viewfinder and flash

The Z30 is a real mini and very light, but feels really good in the hand thanks to the large grip. The Z30 does not have a flash or viewfinder and is therefore a good choice for videographers. It offers a long recording time, good sound with the built-in microphone and a practical mini tripod with remote control and a windscreen for the microphone in the vlogger kit.

Rank 20 out of 20DigitalPhotoSystemkamera im TestReleaseMarch 2025

Recently, camera manufacturers have criminally neglected entry-level cameras. As a result, hardly any new models have come onto the market that are available from specialist retailers for less than 1000 euros - let alone for less than 500 euros. In the days of DSLRs, the choice in this price range was much greater...

  • NegativeNo viewfinder and no built-in flash

The Z30 is quite small and light, but feels good in the hand. The Nikon is a good choice for videographers in particular, as it offers a long recording time, good sound with the built-in microphone and (in the vlogger kit) a practical mini tripod with remote control and a windscreen for the microphone. Typical vlogging model: the Z30 lacks a viewfinder and flash.

The Z30 primarily appeals to buyers who focus on filming in addition to photography - and want to remain as mobile as possible. Despite its powerful handle, the Z30 remains compact and enables uncomplicated video recording when travelling and on location. Filming is also possible with almost all other cameras...

The Z30 is nice and small and very light, but still feels really good in the hand. Operation is simple. The small Nikon is a good choice for videographers in particular, as it offers a long recording time and good sound even with the built-in microphone. It is available for 100 euros more as a vlogger kit including a mini tripod with remote control and a micro windscreen.
