Nikon Z 5 Mirrorless Camera
The Nikon rumour mill had been on overdrive with reports of a new camera being announced on July 21. We can now proudly introduce you to the smallest and lightest addition to the Nikon, full-frame, mirrorless family, the Z 5.
Mighty Mirrorless
With a 24.3MP full-frame sensor, an ISO range of 100-51200 (as seen in it’s bigger brother, the Z6) and 5-axis in-body image stabilisation, the Nikon Z5 packs a whole host of professional-level capabilities into one small, yet mighty, package.
Built with a magnesium-alloy body, the Z 5 is kept light yet durable and with a weather-sealed finish, you can be sure that your Z 5 will stand the test of time on all of your adventures.
Steady and Smooth Filming
The Z5 comes with Nikon's tried and tested vibration control system. Regardless of the lens you are using, the in-body 5-axis image stabilisation lets you shoot at shutter speeds up to five stops slower than you normally would. Check out the body and lens kit option here >
Animal and Human Face Tracking
A 273 point AF system works alongside the camera’s face and eye detection to help you locate and track animal and human faces. Allowing you to keep your subject in sharp focus at all times, even when your subject is moving.
Dual card slots
A huge bonus feature that the Z 5 has over its rivals such as the Canon EOS RP (Now the R8) is dual SD card slots. The card slots can take up to 2x UHS-II SD memory cards, meaning you can record your shots to both cards as a back up for that extra peace of mind when you’re out shooting or filming.
Ultra High Definition 4K Filming
Create cinematic masterpieces with the Z5’s 4K UHD filming. Record up to 30p in 4K (with 1.7x crop) with other options for full HD in smaller resolutions. Take breathtaking time-lapse movies in-camera and take stills whilst filming, so you don’t miss any of the action. Check your footage on the go with the 3.2inch touchscreen LCD. In-camera 5-axis image stabilisation provides steady and smooth filming.
Tilt, Touch, and Swipe
A 3.2inch 1040k-dot touchscreen allows you to control a multitude of functions at the touch or swipe of the screen. Scroll through your photos and zoom into your favourites like you would on your smart device. Tilt the high-resolution screen to enable you to capture stills and footage from more angles.
Fully Connected
Built-in WiFi and Bluetooth make sharing your photos and videos easy. Easily transfer your files to your smart device via the SnapBridge app and also use your device as a remote control for your camera - making those selfies even easier!
Ultra-sharp EVF
What you see is what you get with the Z5’s high-definition 3690k-dot Electronic Viewfinder (EVF). Change settings such as the ISO, exposure and white balance and see the results instantly through the super-sharp EVF.
Power Efficiently by USB-C
Thanks to a new EN-EL 15C battery, you can charge your Z5 via USB-C or power it directly for indoor shooting. Super handy for when you want to film for long periods of time. Lightweight and easy to handle, the Z 5 carries the classic Nikon ergonomics. Charge on the go so you never run out of power.
Classic Nikon Z Ergonomics
A smaller camera body doesn’t mean a more uncomfortable grip, the Z 5 comes with the traditional ergonomics that we’ve come to expect from the Z-series of mirrorless cameras. The key controls are perfectly placed so you can move around the camera body intuitively and the grip is deep so you can get a firm and secure hold on your camera when recording or shooting.
Nikon Z 5 and Z 6 Comparison
If you're contemplating which camera is best suited to your needs then we hope this comparison chart will help you with some of the fundamentals. Naturally, these cameras are aimed at two slightly different audiences, however, it's still useful to see just how much technology the Z 5 has had inserted into such a compact and portable full-frame mirrorless camera.
Which lenses can I use with the Z 5?
Thanks to the large Z-mount, the Z 5 can be used with the complete NIKKOR Z full-frame lens lineup. Including ultra-wide-angle primes through to telephoto zoom lenses, you’ll be sure to have the lens to suit any scenario.
Purchase the FTZ II mount adapter and you can use your Z 5 with the wide range of Nikon F-mount NIKKOR lenses, including the AF-S NIKKOR and the VR lens that Nikon is known for.
Who is the Nikon Z5 for?
Perfect for the first-time full-frame mirrorless user, the Nikon Z5 offers some worthy professional features that can help boost your creativity at a much more affordable price than other similar cameras in the market.
Can the Z 5 be used for YouTube videos?
