Nikon's latest Z50 II crop-sensor mirrorless camera became available for pre-order in Japan at 10:00 on November 12, with orders shipping from November 13. However, all the stock was snapped up in a matter of minutes, leading to shipping delays as soon as it went on sale.
Nikon Japan's own Nikon Direct website – the equivalent to the Nikon Store in territories such as the US, UK and Australia – says it is already experiencing a shortage of all kits, including the body-only version.
