Limited Release of a Premium Exterior Nikon Z fc Camera Model in Collaboration with HERALBONY
September 12, 2024

TOKYO - Nikon Corporation (Nikon) is pleased to announce a limited release of the Nikon Z fc camera "Nikon | HERALBONY Z fc" model featuring premium exterior designs created by contracted artists from HERALBONY Co., Ltd.

HERALBONY is a company dedicated to creating a new culture through welfare initiatives. Nikon was inspired by HERALBONY's mission to "Radiate Your Color" and its extensive licensed art collection created by neurodiverse artists, and this shared vision led to our collaboration. With the Z fc featuring unique artwork, we hope that this camera will not only serve as a tool for capturing and expressing moments, but also as a means for individuals to express their own unique identities.

The Z fc is a camera that combines high performance and usability with a design inspired by Nikon's historic models. Featuring the "Premium Exterior" that allows users to replace the body's leatherette and customize the color to their liking, it has become especially popular among younger users who value personal expression.

During this collaboration, Nikon and HERALBONY carefully selected four works of art from the 2,000+ pieces in the HERALBONY licensed collection to be featured on the premium exterior of the Z fc. You can now choose a camera adorned with a design that particularly resonates with you.

Nikon aims to further expand the possibilities of imaging expressions and contribute to the development of imaging culture in the future.

Quoted from Nikon's press release.

This model came in four different designs by four artists and was limited to just 800 units worldwide. Only those who applied during the campaign period and were selected by lottery were able to purchase it.
