Nikon Z50 II vs Sony ZV-E10 II

The Nikon Z50 II and the Sony ZV-E10 II side by side, computed from this guide's catalogue.

Which to pick

Pick the Sony ZV-E10 II if you want more resolution, for cropping and big prints (26 against 20.9 MP); more lenses made for it in this guide (403 against 233); and a lighter body (377 g against 550 g). On these specs the Nikon Z50 II has no clear advantage: choose it if the price, the handling or a lens you own decides it. If you already own Nikon Z or Sony E lenses, the camera on that mount saves you buying them again.
