Crystal clear, crisp audio: the Z30 features a powerful built-in stereo microphone for excellent audio recording or allows the use of an optional external microphone. The switchable wind noise filter also helps reduce distracting ambient noise. Tiltable and rotatable touchscreen monitor: The monitor supports touch operation.

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...
- Fast autofocus
- Elaborate microphone
- films longer than 30 minutes
- No 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...

- High image quality
- films longer than 30 minutes
- high-quality microphone
- No built-in image stabiliser
- no built-in viewfinder
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.
Photographers who buy the Z30 will have to do without the image stabiliser, flash and viewfinder, while the slower UHS card slot is more acceptable for photographers. The lightweight and compact body scores plenty of mobility points. The affordable entry-level model Nikon Z30 is a successful camera overall...
