Nikon's latest crop-sensor mirrorless, the Z50 II, is now on sale, with a worldwide release date of November 21, and at a cheaper list price than its predecessor (in the UK at least – in the US and Australia they are pretty much on parity). The body-only camera has a list price of $909/£849/AU$1499. The list price for the original Z50 is $899/£899/AU$1499. In the UK, most retailers still stocking the original camera were selling it at the full asking price. So savvy Brits will save £50 and get a far more advanced camera by opting for the newer model.

There are a few exceptions, with stores selling the older camera at the same price or slightly below the new camera, but the cheapest I could find the Z50 on the day of the Z50 II's launch was Amazon, which had cut the price of the body to £719. But I still wouldn't buy it.
