Nikon Z5 review

 

The Nikon Z5 has plenty to charm those looking for a great entry-level mirrorless camera.

Comfy grip and solid build Logical control layout High-resolution EVF 5-axis AF system Very capable AF system

Underwhelming burst shooting speed Disappointing video specs including cropped 4K Tilt-angle display, not vari-angle

The Nikon Z5 is the best entry-level full-frame mirrorless camera you can buy right now. It’s not perfect, but thanks to a blend of great image quality, a reliable autofocus performance, accessible handling and a weather-sealed body and tough body, the...

Nikon Z5 review: Mirrorless marvel

 

Nikon's more affordable full-frame mirrorless camera has a host of impressive features. But how does it stack up in use? Read our review for more...

Great image quality from full-frame sensor ; Huge potential from new Z mount lenses ; Electronic viewfinder is of great quality and scale ; Autofocus system adds Eye/Face/Pet detection

Video offering much stronger from competition ; Low burst shooting speed ; Not a full vari-angle screen (it's tilt-angle only) ; Single area AF can struggle a little in lower light

As mirrorless cameras go the Nikon is easy to use, has a wonderful viewfinder, introduces improved autofocus features, and feels pitched to the correct kind of audience. Despite a low burst shooting speed and video capture that's outclassed by the...

Hands on: Nikon Z5 August 30th, 2020 | by Wilson Wong Imaging 0 The Nikon Z5. PHOTO: Handout

 

The Nikon Z5 full-frame mirrorless camera may not be the best for video but it is priced right with features to win over those on a budget.

Nikon Z 5 Review

 

24MP full-frame sensor ; 5-axis IBIS ; Tilting touch LCD ; High-magnification OLED EVF ; Dust and splash protection ; Dual UHS-II card slots ; Works with Nikon F lenses via adapter

Cropped 4K recording ; Autofocus a step behind Canon and Sony ; Meager 4.5fps continuous drive ; Z lens library still in development ; Few third-party Z lenses available

The Nikon Z 5 offers a lot for photographers moving from a Nikon SLR system to mirrorless, even though it omits some of the latest bells and whistles to meet its price point.

Nikon Z5 review: the best value stills-oriented full-framer

 

For still photographers, we feel the Nikon Z5 represents the best value for the money when it comes to full-frame mirrorless cameras. Which is why it receives our top award.

The Z5 is an extremely well-rounded camera for stills photography (we'll talk video in a minute). In fact, it's easily the the most compelling stills-oriented full-framer for the cash in 2020. This also makes it a natural vehicle to convert Nikon users...

Nikon Z5 review

 

The Nikon Z5 makes a modest case for a great street camera

Can be easily used one-handed ; Compact form factor ; Dual slot SD ; Competitively priced

Must use adapter for old lenses ; Crop on 4K video footage ; LCD is only partially articulating

Whether you are looking to step up your photography to a professional level or just seeking a high-quality daily-use camera, the Z5 will get you going without costing a fortune.
