Your full frame mirrorless journey starts here.
![Z 5 jordi koalitic mirrorless camera full frame](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/S/aplus-media-library-service-media/cf3b8a77-a722-4cf6-a518-9e5bfe7daa66.__CR0,0,1464,600_PT0_SX1464_V1___.jpg)
Push the limits of your creativity with Z 5, an innovative full frame mirrorless camera built around Nikon’s revolutionary Z mount. Compact yet powerful, simple yet sophisticated, the Z 5 delivers detailed imagery, precision autofocus and the tools you need to be as creative as possible.
-
The full picture.
Z 5’s 24.3 MP full frame CMOS sensor produces intensively detailed images, lifelike 4K UHD video, ultra shallow depth-of-field and particularly clean low-light shots.
-
Super powered.
Nikon’s EXPEED 6 image processing system is the secret behind the Z 5's sensational photo and video quality, autofocus performance, low-light capabilities, image clarity, color reproduction and more.
-
The stability you crave.
Powerful in-body 5-axis VR image stabilization is applied to whatever NIKKOR Z lens you’re using. Up to five stops of image stabilization in up to five directions—yaw, pitch, roll, X and Y.
-
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. Also great for shooting with wide apertures in broad daylight.
-
Right in any light.
Keep shooting into the night and bring new moods to your style with the drama of low light using ISOs that goes all the way up to 51,200 (expandable to ISO 102,400).
-
You see it. You get it.
Z 5’s electronic viewfinder offers a high-res glare-free view of how your shot will actually look.
![automatic manual shooting mode dial](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/S/aplus-media/vc/c2a0e037-c12f-455b-958a-b16d081508c5.__CR0,0,1464,600_PT0_SX1464_V1___.jpg)
Easy. Sophisticated.
Sometimes you need to just point and shoot. Other times you want to fine tune every little detail. Z 5 is up for either challenge, going from fully automatic to totally manual with the turn of a dial.
-
Creativity. Built in.
Multiply your vision.
Combine multiple photos into one radical creation, all in-camera.
-
Creativity. Built in.
Tweak. Shoot. Create.
Add an element of uniqueness to your images with Creative Picture Controls, visible as you shoot.
-
Creativity. Built in.
Timelapse made easy.
Either record a timelapse movie in-camera or save every high-res still... or simultaneously do both!
-
Creativity. Built in.
Shift your focus.
Automatically shift focus throughout a series of photos and stack them with 3rd party software.
-
Creativity. Built in.
Your entry to video.
Shoot 4K UHD footage using the advantages of the Z system's technology and high-performance optics.

Remote control.
When you can’t be behind the camera, use your phone and control the Z 5 to take photos or videos.

As app-friendly as it gets.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
The ergonomic design feels comfortable in my hands, and the intuitive touchscreen interface makes navigation a breeze. I love the EVF - it's clear, bright, and provides an accurate preview of the final shot. The Z5's battery life has also been impressive, lasting through a full day of shooting without needing a recharge.
Switching from my old DSLR was seamless, thanks to the included FTZ adapter that allowed me to use my existing F-mount lenses. The Z5's compact size and lightweight build make it a great travel companion, without compromising on performance.
Overall, the Nikon Z5 is a fantastic mirrorless camera that strikes the perfect balance between affordability and high-end features. Whether you're a beginner looking to step up your photography game or a seasoned enthusiast, this camera won't disappoint. Highly recommended!
So if you have been on the fence about Nikon mirrorless because of the single XQD card slot in the Z6 or Z7, this is a great way to dip your toe in the mirrorless water and even dive in if you want.
SD cards are ubiquitous and inexpensive. It has been flawless with the FTZ adapter and my F mount lenses. It does uncropped 1080p HD video, and can do cropped 4K video. I don't do much video at all, so I don't mind. 1080p is enough for me right now anyway. I am not a pro (maybe someday...). I do wish it had a little faster frames per second for stills. 4.5 is ok, but not great.
I liked the Z5 so much, I sold off my F bodies and bought a second Z5! Now I have two of these for the day I go pro as a wedding photographer! You always need a backup.
There's a lot of reviewers on the 'Tube who have been talking down to Nikon for its mirrorless efforts, but the fact of the matter is, Nikon is doing a great job in its first generation of full frame mirrorless. The Z5 (for me), Z6II, and Z7II (both unreleased at the time of this review), have everything we need. There's no reason to jump ship to another brand now. IBIS and Eye autofocus are all onboard the Nikon mirrorless cameras.
Don't get caught up in the reviews (especially outdated ones) that make it seem like everyone buying cameras is a professional wedding photographer who needs 4k video 100% of the time in one hand while photographing birds, wildlife, and sports at 20fps in the other hand, all at the same time. If that's not you, do you care if you have one card slot, or can't record in uncropped 4k? All we need is a little perspective. Find the right camera for you and go have fun.

A superb choice and bargain for serious lovers of photographs having a wide range of skills who just don’t want their camera to get in the way, from auto to highly adjusted features. Hey, this one actually extends and enhances your possibilities. Exceptionally strong lenses, autofocus, exposure control, low light capabilities, good video, and great Nikon feel.
The Z5 is a similarly gifted but poorer member of the family, this little sister lacks some refinements and rare capabilities of its supposedly more capable ‘siblings’ Z6, 6ii, 7, and 7ii.
Added 6/30/21
UPDATE: just returned my rating to 5**** : BECAUSE NIKON and AMAZON SERVICES recently assisted me with superb service, finally updating SnapBridge, the Z5 WIFI picture transfer app, re-enabling the suddenly incompatible APPLE iOS and PVN settings in my iPad. While surprising, frustrating, and disappointingly inconvenient, causing me to initially reduce my Z5 rating to 1*, i finally discovered that such frustrating temporary iOS and other disappointing WiFi compatibility breakdowns like mine can limit the camera’s usefulness but are inevitable and common as APPLE routinely updates its iOS.
The camera itself is fine and an ongoing pleasure.
The Z5 and AMAZON TOO deserve 5***** ++ RATINGS!

Se vende como nivel de entrada full frame sin espejo, pero no tiene absolutamente nada de básico, es para el profesional y/o aficionado que no busca tanto el video y se dedica mas a fotografía, si bien no es "Sensor BSI", tiene un sensor muy similar o idéntico a la ya conocida "D750" ,
En muchos review bajo distintos escenarios, es casi imposible diferenciar el resultado contra la Z6, se tendria que ampliar a mas del 200% para apenas tratar de encontrar alguna mínima diferencia,
Si bien tiene recorte en algunas funciones de video y recorte en 4K, no los limitará en hacer buenos videos, con la misma calidad que la "Z6", pero sin algunas funciones que no son estrictamente necesarias. El resto de características es 95% idéntica a la "Z6", y aun precio mucho menor.
La calidad del sensor es más que suficiente para la mayoría de las necesidades y en combinación con una óptica prime de "f1.8" sera altamente profesional, si no buscan profesionalidad superior o de gama muy alta y únicamente es para uso personal y aficionado, con una óptica "24-70mm f4 S" tendrán resultados nitidos de calidad excelsa, o en su defecto una óptica "24-200mm f4-6.3" será altamente versátil sin sacrificar calidad, aunque si menos luminosidad.
Debo confesar que conservando la óptica kit "24-50mm f4-6.3" por un tiempo, se obtienen resultados bastante decentes y sorprendentes, (por lo que no es necesario adquirir una óptica adicional de inmediato, y se puede repartir el gasto /inversión en un período de varios meses)

El lente de kit aunque limitado sigue siendo bueno para la mayoría de casos.
