  • General
    • Brand: Nikon
    • Model Number: 1680
    • Product Name: Nikon Z5II 4K Video Mirrorless Camera Body
    • Color: Black
    • Product Set: Body only
    • Camera Model Family: Nikon Z5 ii
    • Digital Camera Type: Mirrorless Camera Body Only
  • Imaging
    • Image Sensor Type: CMOS (CCD and CMOS are the two main technologies used in image sensors. CCD, the older of the two types, turns analog light signals into digital pixels. This conversion happens without distortion, resulting in high-quality images. Newer CMOS sensors use transistors at each pixel to move electrical charges. CMOS sensors are typically less expensive, but also require more light to create distortion-free images.)
    • Image Sensor Size: 35mm Full Frame (36 x 24 mm)
    • Total Pixels: 24.5 megapixels (Generally, the more pixels, the higher the image resolution and the finer the detail that can be seen.)
    • Digital Zoom: None (A digital zoom is accomplished electronically, with no adjustment of the camera's optics, and no optical resolution gained in the process. The existing data is not enhanced or added to, merely displayed at a lower resolution, thereby giving an illusion of an enlarged image.)
    • Low Light/High Sensitivity: true (High sensitivity digital imaging devices are designed to work in low light conditions to produce a high dynamic range image.)
    • Image File Format(s): JPEG, RAW, HEIF (Standardized software format(s) of storing digital images. The type of format chosen for capturing and compressing the image can determine quality, level of detail, and storage space required.)
  • Focus
    • Autofocus: true (Allows the camera to automatically focus through the lens, rather than by adjusting the lens manually.)
    • Eye Autofocus (Eye AF): true (Automatically seeks out and focuses on the subject's eye and holds it as the camera and subject move and as the photographer shoots at high frame rates.)
    • Number of Autofocus Points (Up To): 299
  • Exposure Control
    • Shutter Speeds: 900 (The length of time the shutter remains open when the shutter release is activated, expressed in fractions of seconds. The longer the shutter is open, the more light that is able to be captured by the camera sensor.)
    • Minimum ISO: 100 (ISO is the measurement of a camera image sensor's light sensitivity. When there is plenty of light, using the lowest ISO setting available will typically result in a higher quality image.)
    • Maximum ISO: 64000 (ISO is the measurement of a camera image sensor's light sensitivity. In low-light environments, using a higher ISO setting helps to capture a sharp, bright image.)
    • Maximum Expandable ISO: 204800 (ISO is the measurement of a camera image sensor's light sensitivity. Expandable ISO settings use software to simulate brighter images than the device's native ISO range is capable of capturing.)
    • Brightness Control: true (Allows the camera to adjust the brightness of a captured image for optimal exposure.)
    • Burst Mode: true (Also referred to as continuous shooting. This feature captures multiple shots in rapid succession.)
    • Burst Rate: 30 frames per second
    • Self Timer: true
    • Self-Timer Delay: 2 seconds, 5 seconds, 10 seconds, 20 seconds
    • Shooting Modes: Auto, Programmed auto with flexible program (P), Shutter-priority auto (S), Aperture-priority auto (A),Manual (M) (Exposure modes employed by the photographer to control the optimal aperture, shutter speed, ISO, and other settings for capturing specific subjects/scenes. Examples include Aperture-Priority, Macro, and Manual modes.)

    • Effective Pixels: 24.5 megapixels (The actual number of pixels which make up the viewable image.)
  • Lens
    • Lens Mount Compatibility: Nikon Z
  • Flash
    • Integrated Flash: false
    • External Flash Mount: Hot Shoe (A cold shoe is a mounting point on top of a camera to securely attach a flash unit or other compatible accessories. A hot shoe is a cold shoe with an electrical connection that insures communication and synchronization between camera and accessory.)
  • Display
    • Display Type: TFT-LCD
    • Screen Size: 3.2 inches (Size of the screen, measured diagonally from corner to corner.)
    • Viewfinder Type: Electronic (A viewfinder is the part of a camera (or attachment) that allows you to see and focus a scene in frame. Optical viewfinders let you view the scene directly through the lens. Electronic viewfinders display the image on a screen in its approximate final form.)
    • Varying Angle Screen: true (The camera's screen can be flipped out and adjusted to rotate, tilt, and/or swivel.)

    Z5ii: Nikon's "Pro-sumer" Perfection.

    I purchased the Z5ii with a 50mm 1.8S as my first mirrorless camera. I contemplated for years on getting a Z5 or Z50 but it never felt worth it until this release. The long story short is this: You aren't giving up anything in IQ to any MILC camera with Nikon's least-expensive, current-Gen full-frame in the Z5ii. It's more than good enough for professional event photography/portraits. It's AF-C/tracking works great even if it's not quite Z6iii/Z8/Z9 levels of speed. If you're familiar with Nikon DSLR controls you'll be right at home. The feature-set is endless and pretty much anything you need for high level photography and videography is there for you. This is a great hybrid video/stills solution and even with the 1.5x crop the 4k60fps footage is wonderful. The full-width 4k30/24p is breathtakingly good with either in camera colors or using N-log and post grading. Don't let the "slow-sensor, rolling shutter" talk dissuade you unless you're constantly shooting fast pans. It's not that bad and in 4k60p 1.5x crop it's actually great. I shot some great half-speed slo-mo that looks extremely good on my 75" 4k HDR TV. Better than 99% of anything you'll see on YouTube. The Nikon Z system is finally mature with amazing first and third party lens options. There's something for everyone. The Z5ii will push things even farther for Nikon allowing multitudes more people access to their wonderful camera system for a reasonable price.

    Nice Upgrade

    The Z5ii seems to be the perfect balance between quality photography and cost. I have had this camera for about a month and have mostly used it outdoors. The autofocus is excellent. I've used Auto, Aperture Priority and Shutter Priority, so far. I'm anxious to do some low-light shots but have yet to do so. The display is very good and very versatile. I would recommend purchasing the body only and consider purchasing a Tamron 28-75mm 2.8 zoom lens. I got one and it is superb and the cost is well below the Nikkor zoom. (Check out the reviews - Unfortunately Best Buy did not offer this lens when I bought the Z5ii.)

    Best Value Full-Frame Camera for beginners

    This camera is awesome for beginners that are looking to get into photography professionally or as a hobby. It keeps the budget relatively low so you can focus on what matters most- premium lenses and taking photos. Below are some key features for why I like the camera: - weatherproofing: this is typically a feature only seen in more expensive camera bodies, but Nikon chose to include it. - EXPEED7 processor: this is the same processor in their flagship models, such as the Z8 and Z9 - dual SD card slot: great for longer shoots or for image backup as a professional - handles high ISO extremely well: I've shot some wildlife "keeper" RAW photos in the range of 22600-64000 ISO that cleaned up incredibly well. - In Body Image Stabilization (IBIS): this is another premium feature that is great for keeping your photos sharp when paired with lenses that lack vibration reduction and while handheld shooting at slower shutter speeds - EN-EL15c battery: all of the other Nikon bodies use this battery except the smaller Z50 and Z50ii, making the Z5ii a good body to build accessories on as your batteries will be compatible with more cameras I recommend pairing it with a Nikkor Z 24-120mm f/4 S lens.

    First outing with nikon z5ii

    I am really pleased with this camera. It is my first nikon full frame camera, and I couldn't be happier with it. I am still learning all the settings and capabilities of this camera, but that is part of the enjoyment! Seems really good quality and loaded with features.
