Prime Day is right around the corner this fall, but it isn’t just Amazon that’s offering fantastic deals today — Walmart has stepped up to the plate with this fantastic Nikon Z fc discount.
Right now, you can get the Nikon Z fc for just $814.95 at Walmart, which is $40 cheaper than when it was discounted last Prime Day. Walmart can be known to hike the before price on a deal to make it seem like a good one, however there isn't one here and compared to what they were selling it for over the summer sales event, you're now $40 better off. This is a camera, we might add, that features in our best beginner cameras guide where it wins 4/5 stars thanks to its excellent styling, great touchscreen and optimal build quality. One thing we didn't like about it was the slightly costly price tag, so with this discount we think it's a slam-dunk.
Nikon has positioned the Z fc as the ideal camera for vloggers thanks to its flip-out screen and live-streaming capabilities, but in truth, this is a versatile camera that will suit a wide range of users. It takes fantastic images thanks to its 20.9MP DX CMOS sensor paired with the EXPEED 6 engine.

The Z in the name refers to Nikon’s Z lens mount, a super-wide lens mount that lets more light through, improving sharpness, contrast, image focus and quality. It’s also great in low-light conditions — perfect if you want to snap some pictures of the night sky. If you want to check out some other fantastic night-friendly cameras, our guide to the best cameras for low light photography has you covered.
It’s worth bearing in mind that this deal only covers the camera body itself, so you’ll have to buy a lens separately unless you already have what you need. If you do want to grab one with a lens, check out the Nikon website which has a variety of options.
And if you’re just getting into photography, or you're thinking of switching from a DSLR to a mirrorless, then we’ve put together an explainer to help you decide if a mirrorless camera is worth it?
There are plenty of other Prime Day camera deals out there for you to choose from too, but this is certainly one not to overlook so easily. Remember, this was on sale last Amazon Prime Day and this time round, it's $40 cheaper than it was then.
