HI FRIENDS,
The Nikon Z5 entry-level full-frame mirrorless camera launch in India.
This is currently Nikon’s most affordable Z-series camera with a full-frame sensor.
The Nikon Z5 features a new sensor and despite its lower position in the series it still gets in-body image stabilisation (IBIS), dual SD card slots, and the ability to shoot video up to 4K.
Price in India
The Nikon Z5 will be available from August 27 in India at a retail price of Rs. 1,13,995 for just the body.
Nikon also announced a new NIKKOR Z 24-50mm f/4-6.3 kit lens, which it says is the shortest and lightest Z-mount lens it has made so far.
With this lens the Z5 will be available at a bundled price of Rs. 1,36,995.
Specifications
The Nikon Z5 inherits a lot of features from its bigger siblings, the Z6 and Z7, such as the five-axis IBIS, autofocus system and design.
It come with a new 24.3-megapixel full-frame sensor.
It also uses the same Expeed 6 image processor and has a similar ISO range of 100-51,200 as the Nikon Z6.
Burst shooting speed is a bit lower, at 4.5fps.
The Z5 also has two SD card slots, with support for UHD-II speeds.
It also has the same magnesium alloy body as the Z6 and Z7, with some degree of weather proofing.
Features
Nikon has fitted the Z5 with 273 on-sensor autofocus (AF) points with support for eye detection AF for humans and animals.
You get a 3.6 million dot resolution electronic viewfinder and a tilting rear 3.2-inch LCD display with touch support.
The Z5 also has a new EN-EL15c battery, which Nikon claims is good for 470 shots per charge.
The camera can shoot up to 4K 30fps, but with a 1.7x crop factor or up to 1080p 60fps without any crop.
The ports on the Nikon Z5 include Micro-HDMI, microphone, headphone, and USB Type-C.
The latter port can be used for charging the camera, via a compatible power bank.
