Despite others I still reach for a Z30.
The 16-50 collapsible lens is one of the best lenses of any mirrorless system imo. It’s basically an APS-C version of the Panasonic 12-32. Being collapsible, it’s ultra-portable like a prime lens but with a versatile 24-75mm equivalent range. It’s decently sharp too! I love my Z30 despite owning a z

Camera for low light/indoors?
Nikon was selling a refurbished Z30 with a kit lens for $399. This camera is tiny but will outperform any DX-size DSLR Nikon ever made. If you want, you can use your old F-mount lens if you buy the ZTZ for $100 (used). Shooting with only an LCD screen will horrify all the grumpy old men on the forum

Digital Camera with Flip Screen Recommendations
Refurbished options that come with a short, usually extendable, warranty, but nothing new out of Nikon with a flipping screen and a flash at $700 or less. The closest is the Coolpix P950 at $750. Though it's party trick is a ton of zoom, not so much on the image quality front. The Z30 with 16-50 len

Thinking of getting an everyday carry snapshot camera.
I had a Coolpix A, Ricoh GRiii, GRiiix, GRiv, Nikon 1 J5, and Z30. I really liked the J5 with 10/2.8 and 18.5/1.8. Quick, compact, and great image quality in good light. Pretty lackluster indoors at iso 3200. In reality, the Z30 is a much better camera, with better lens options, marginally larger, a

ZF 2?
We're at least 18 months from a next-gen Zf, the Z9 and Z8 refreshes need to happen first. Could Nikon do something other than a straight refresh? Sure, some folks (including me) would love to see a Zf variant with the 45MP Z7ii sensor (as the regular Zf uses the Z6ii sensor). But that would end up

Using a GR III for a community newspaper: Great tool or too niche for beginners?
I agree with others that having people use the camera they're familiar with (i.e., their smartphones) and emailing or dropping those images into a shared folder is your safest bet. For a shared camera, I would get something with fewer exposed features, less tedious controls, better battery life, and

Camera for low light/indoors?
Yes, I mentioned it because of OP's description of indoor hospital rooms.It's also one of the more affordable lenses.You could crop to 35mm and with the wide aperture you'd probably get similar or better results to the kit lens at that focal length, but you couldn't go wider with the 35mm.

Do the third party grips for the Zf completely make up for the ergonomic deficiency in the body or are users still making a compromise to get that vintage feel?
The ZFc is frankly not good value unless you buy used and know what you’re getting into. The ZF is a capable full-frame camera in a Fujifilm-esque body. The ZFc is a Nikon Z30 shoved inside a smaller version of the ZF. You get a nice looking metal body (albeit with a cheap feeling plasticky coating)

Z50ii as first camera?
I learned on a Canon Rebel T1i. You’ll be more than fine with the Nikon z50ii. It’s a very powerful camera. Even the Z30 would be more than enough to start with. Make sure you have a telephoto and a few primes. Viltrox has some really good budget options for lenses too.
