Z50II Offers Convenient Wireless Sharing of Photos and Videos
Sharing your photos and videos with the Nikon Z50II is quick, easy and so convenient.
All you need is your camera, compatible smartphone or tablet and the free Nikon SnapBridge app which can be found on the Apple App store and Google Play store. Just download the app onto your iPhone® or iPad® or smart device running on the Android™ operating system and follow the prompts to pair the camera via Bluetooth and Wi-Fi®.
Once you pair the Z50II to your smartphone or tablet, you can download photos and videos to your device for speedy sharing to your favorite social media sites or by text or email. The SnapBridge app even lets you control your camera remotely so you can take photos or start and stop video capture. There are options to download the full resolution image or a smaller sized image file for easy sharing.
Camera and Cloud Picture Controls
Nikon Imaging Cloud expands the capabilities and connectivity of your Z50II. Picture Controls are more customizable than ever with the Z50II. You can use any of the 31 creative options that the camera comes with, you can create your own (in the free Nikon NX Studio software) for upload to your camera, and you can download specially curated options through Nikon Imaging Cloud (these are called Image Recipes)—that you can use with both stills and video. Play with results in real-time as you shoot—you’ll be able to see on the LCD or viewfinder what your subject looks like with the selected Picture Control—opening up a world of creative possibilities. You can even add up to nine Cloud Picture Control presets to your camera right from Nikon Imaging Cloud.
Download Image Recipes by your favorite creators to your camera from the Nikon Imaging Cloud website.
Photo Transfers
Nikon Imaging Cloud also functions as a way-station for your images, simplifying your workflow by allowing you to upload full-res files automatically (whenever the camera is connected to Wi-Fi®), and from there you can share to your favorite social media or cloud storage sites. (Images uploaded to Nikon Imaging Cloud only live there for 30 days before they are deleted!)
Nikon’s even got an image sharing site, Nikon Image Space, that gives you 20 Gigs of storage free when you sign up for a Nikon ID and register your Nikon camera.
Download to Computer Too
You can even download photos and videos to your Mac or Windows-PC with the free Nikon Wireless Utility software. You have the choice of connecting directly to your computer or to your home network. Check out your camera’s user’s manual for step-by-step instructions on setting it up.
Wired Connectivity & Other Options
There are a couple other Z series connectivity options to get your images and video from the camera to computers and smart devices. You can use an inexpensive third-party card reader to download files, especially large video files or RAW NEF image files. Some card readers are made specifically connecting to computers while others connect to your smartphone or tablet. This is, by far, the quickest and easiest way to get the files out of the camera and onto your device. Lastly, if you’re just looking to download images to your computer over a wired connection you can connect the camera via USB to a Mac or Windows-based PC for image and video downloading.
If you'd like to view your images or videos on a TV set that has HDMI ports, you can do so by connecting the camera to the television set using an HDMI cable. Just check your camera's user's manual and that of the TV to make sure you're using the correct type of cable.
