How often does a product of this brand in the «Cameras» category have a defect within the first 24 months?

Source: Digitec GalaxusThe X-E5 achieves very good results in all areas. The comparison with the X-T50 is primarily decided by design preferences - although the older camera costs 300 euros less, has a flash on board, but is not suitable for selfies. The Z50 Il has the brightest viewfinder and the best high-ISO smoke behaviour. If you can do without the viewfinder, the X-M5 is also a very good choice.
The Z50 Il is really good in all test disciplines and therefore wins the test. It is beautifully compact, lightweight and sits comfortably in the hand thanks to the pronounced grip. The fast image processor (Expeed 7) is a particular advantage when it comes to autofocus. It recognises the subject very accurately and at very high speed...
The Nikon Z50II scored points in the test with numerous improvements. In addition to the consistently good image quality up to ISO 6,400, it clearly stands out from its predecessor with Nikon Z9-level autofocus object detection, faster and more enduring image series and the extended video functions for vloggers, but we would still have liked to see an increase to 24 megapixels...
Recently, camera manufacturers have criminally neglected entry-level cameras. As a result, hardly any new models have come onto the market that are available from specialist retailers for less than 1000 euros - let alone for less than 500 euros. In the days of DSLRs, the choice in this price range was much greater...
The combination of first-class autofocus and crop factor makes the Z50ll interesting not least for animal photographers. Those who do not need more than 21 megapixels are still well advised to use the sensor, which has very good noise behaviour. Nevertheless, there are still wishes that a top-of-the-range DX model could fulfil: above all, a larger viewfinder, automatic sensor cleaning and image stabilisation...
