Can Nikon z30 stand-alone take pictures?

Of course. Nikon Z 30 is obviously a vlog camera for positioning entry-level users to shoot videos. It can take pictures, and its positioning is quite similar to Sony ZV-E 10. Z 30 has a compact and lightweight body of Nikon Z series models, equipped with a 3-inch LCD screen with a reversible touch of 1.04 million pixels, and a large-size video recording button at the top that is more obvious than the traditional model, which is convenient for installing the microphone of the windshield. There is a REC indicator light on the front of the camera that can immediately know the recording status. The recording time can reach 1.25 minutes. The camera can record 4K ultra HD video in DX format, and the viewing angle is about 100% at 4K ultra HD /30p. It also provides uncut 4K Ultra HD /30p and Full HD/120p for creating slow-motion videos.
