Description
Your full-frame journey begins with the Z 5. Simple yet sophisticated, compact yet powerful, the Z 5 is built to grow with you. It’s everything you’d expect from a full-frame mirrorless camera—intense detail, expansive views, brilliant low light capabilities, 4K UHD video and more—plus all the innovative tools you need to push the limits of your creativity.
Nikon FX-format CMOS image sensor featuring 24.3 effective megapixels and ISO 100-51200.
- 273-point*1Â AF system offering accurate focus across 90% of the frame both horizontally and vertically while allowing touch AF during live view.
- Eye-Detection AF*2Â and Animal-Detection AF*3Â that automatically detects and tracks the eyes of both human subjects and pets, realizing impressive portraits.
- Powerful in-camera VR that achieves an effect equivalent to a shutter speed of 5.0 stops*4Â faster, compensating vibration in five directions.
- 20 Creative Picture Controls with customizable effect level adjustments, all of which can be previewed in real time and applied to both photos and videos.
- 3690k-dot Quad VGA EVF with the combination of an ultra-high resolution OLED and Nikon’s specially designed optics, providing a clear and comfortable view.
- Large and beautiful tilting touch screen monitor for intuitive operation.
- The new USB power delivery option supplies power from a portable charger*5Â while shooting to ensure continuous recording of video or time-lapse movies without worries.
- 4K UHD video*6Â delivering beautiful and sharp footage while letting you touch to focus on the camera monitor for smooth transition between subjects.
- *1In photo mode, FX-format with single-point AF.
- *2Available in photo mode when using auto-area AF.
- *3When using auto-area AF. During movie recording, the camera will recognize animals’ faces.
- *4Based on CIPA Standards. This value is achieved when the NIKKOR Z 24-70mm f/4 S is attached, with zoom set at the maximum telephoto position.
- *5 Anker PowerCore+ 26800 PD 45W is recommended.
- *6 When using this mode, the frame is cropped approx. x1.7.
Focus anywhere.
Z 5’s sensor is practically covered in focus points—273 of them, to be precise. That means wherever your subject is within the frame, there’s almost certainly a focus point locked on them.
Your entry to video.
Z 5 records beautiful videos. Shoot 4K Ultra HD footage using all the advantages of mirrorless technology and the Z system’s high-performance optics.
• 231 point phase-detect autofocus
• 4K UHD/30p
• 1080/60p
• Optical VR image stabilisation and electronic Vibration Reduction
• Creative Picture Controls
• Focus Peaking
• Capture stills while recording
Super powered.
Z 5 is powered by Nikon’s fast, comprehensive EXPEED 6 image processing system. It’s the secret behind the camera’s sensational photo and video quality, autofocus performance, low-light capabilities, distortion control, image clarity, colour reproduction and more.
The stability you crave.
Sharpness starts with stability, and Z 5 has one of the best in-camera image stabilisation systems available. NIKKOR Z lenses activate 5-axis VR image stabilisation—up to five stops* of stabilisation in up to five directions: yaw, pitch, roll, X and Y. Compatible F-Mount NIKKOR lenses**—even those without built-in VR—activate 3-axis VR image stabilisation. Great for stills, even better for video.
*Based on CIPA Standards. This value is achieved when the NIKKOR Z 24-70mm f/4 S lens is attached, with zoom set at the maximum telephoto position.
**Requires optional Mount Adapter FTZ.
In the blink of an iris.
Freeze time with shutter speeds as fast as 1/8000 of a second—fast enough to capture moments invisible to the naked eye. When shooting with wide aperture settings for shallow depth-of-field and blurred backgrounds, that speed can also be used to control your shot’s brightness.
