Nikon Z5 II Mirrorless Camera

A High-Quality Creative Companion

A trustworthy tool for your creative journey, the Nikon Z5 II upgrades its predecessor with improved processing speed, subject recognition AF, and low-light performance. With a new colour preset button, an ultra-bright viewfinder, and easy sharing options, the camera offers a step up to creators seeking full-frame imagery.

24.5MP FX Sensor & EXPEED 7 Image Processor

The full-frame, FX-format 24.5MP BSI CMOS sensor is paired with an EXPEED 7 image processor to provide a versatile mixture of improved sensitivity, nuanced image quality, fast, AI-powered autofocus, and full-resolution continuous shooting up to 30 fps. At native values, a sensitivity range from ISO 100-64000 permits working in a broad array of lighting conditions and can be further expanded up to ISO 50-204800 for extreme lighting conditions. The combination of resolution and sensor size also contributes to clean image quality and smooth colour transitions with reduced noise throughout the sensitivity range.

Autofocus You Can Trust

Using inherited algorithms and deep learning technology from the Z9, including sophisticated Subject Detection for nine different subject types, the Z5 II can recognize a variety of distinct subject types, ranging from humans to animals to aeroplanes to bicycles. The popular dedicated Bird Detection mode is also featured. When working in Auto-Area AF, these subjects will automatically be detected, focused on, and tracked to ensure sharp focus when the subject is moving across the frame.

UHD 4K Video Recording

Capable of recording more than just stills, the Z5 II has improved its video capture abilities as well, now supporting UHD 4K video recording up to 60 fps and Full HD recording up to 120 fps along with recording time limits of up to two hours, a video self-timer feature, built-in electronic Vibration Reduction, and the ability to save movie files to the in-camera memory cards or an optional external recorder via HDMI out. In-camera time-lapse shooting is also possible with the ability to produce a finished UHD 4K video file directly from the camera.

Sensor-Shift Vibration Reduction

Built into the body is a 5-axis sensor-shift Vibration Reduction (VR) mechanism that compensates for up to five stops of stabilisation regardless of the lens in use. With compatible lenses, up to 7.5 stops of stabilisation are possible. Also, benefitting video recording, Electronic VR is available to help steady footage to suit handheld shooting.

Colour Control for Creators

Nikon has added a Picture Control button atop the Z5 II to make access to its 31 built-in presets available even in Auto mode. The colour presets can now be overlaid on the rear LCD screen, giving you the ability to visualise the colour shifts as you create. Creator Recipes built by fellow Nikon shooters are available through the Nikon Imaging Cloud and can be downloaded and integrated alongside the presets.

Body Design and Connectivity

• A large 3.2" 2.1m-dot LCD screen doubles the brightness for clear and vivid image playback and live view shooting. The vari-angle touchscreen design boasts more intuitive operation, navigation, and settings control.
• An ultra-bright, 3.69m-dot electronic viewfinder is present for comfortable eye-level viewing.
• Dual SD memory card slots both support up to the UHS-II protocol for high-speed and efficient photo and video file saving.
• The headphone jack doubles as a terminal for Nikon's optional MC-DC3 Remote Release Cord, and the USB-C terminal provides both camera charging and USB power delivery. A micro-HDMI port allows for external recording and live view.
• Built-in SnapBridge connectivity to enable seamless transfer of low-resolution imagery as well as remote shooting capabilities. BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) and Wi-Fi enable communication between the camera and a smart device and, additionally, the mobile device can remotely trigger the shutter and display a live view image from the camera to enable working from a distance.
• Included EN-EL15c rechargeable lithium-ion battery provides approximately 380 shots per charge, and in-camera charging is supported via USB, even when the camera is in use.
