Customer Ratings & Reviews

This camera is incredible for the money. You get in-body stabilization, access to the absolutely incredible Z glass, dual UHS-II card slots, and the new EN-EL15C battery which supports charging while the camera is on. This camera does shockingly well in low light situations, and especially with the Z glass the autofocus is nice and snappy. The controls are layed out in a very ergonomic and intuitive way, and let you customize them to have exactly what settings you need at your fingertips. The touchscreen looks amazing, and makes this camera so easy to use being able to swipe through menus or adjust settings without turning dials or clicking buttons. All in all this is an amazing entry to Nikon's Z lineup, and for an entry level full frame camera I think it is incredibly difficult to beat.

Honestly, coming from a d3100, I could not be happier. The camera is very intuitive and easy to use, and has every setting you could want for power users. I prefer to shoot in full manual most of the time, and fully enjoy being able to set it up the way I want. The Z lenses are also all incredible, and using the FTZ mount available, I can use my older lenses as well. If this is your first full frame camera, you won't be dissapointed!

Great budget camera in the beginner range full frame mirrorless category. One of the best feature it provides is the face detection where it will help you ensure your portraits are in focus. Not so light weight in comparison to DSLRs but it definitely isn't bulky

Brilliant camera. Shoots real life pictures. Not very heavy. Lasts arond 400 shots on a single charge

So far so good. Good quality, nice handling, solid build. Only comes with four menu languages (doesn’t have Chinese) so be careful if this matters to you.

I bought this camera as a beginner, and this camera is very easy to use to me. The handling is great. The performance is awesome with a 50 mm f 1.8 lens. Highly recommended if you are looking for an entry-level full-frame camera! For lens, I recommend the 50mm f1,8, or 85mm or the 24-120!

Love this camera. Exactly what i was looking for but most important they had it in stock. Lens too i got. 24 -200 Nikon

Very solid camera employee helped pick it out was great choice along with lens

I love the camera in general! I dont dislike anything! The Z5 and the Z6ii are very similar! Dont make the wrong choice!

Recently traded my Nikon 7500 and bought this. Still early, but I have no regrets. I wanted to upgrade to full sensor mirrorless camera without breaking the back. This came on sale and I couldn't miss out. If you're looking for a cheap full frame camera that doesn't feel cheap, then this is it. The build is typical Nikon build with the very pronounced grip. It's light, but not flimsy. The pics turns out great. The autofocus is pretty on point most of the times. Can't wait to get more familiar with this camera.

This camera is very beginner friendly and takes some absolutely stunning pictures! It is so much lighter than the D series cameras making it much easier to handle when used with the Z lenses. Very happy with my decision to switch.

Great body, good price for full frame. Built solid, as you expect from Nikon. I've been using M43 for several years, and I missed having Nikon colors. I considered the Z6 or Z6II, but I'd rather keep some money for an upgrade later on. I don't use video be recording, so the Z5 had what is needed. I also considered the A7C. If Nikon had a mirror less full frame camera in that form factor (no viewfinder hump) I would have gone for that.

Love this camera! So lightweight and easy to use. Couldn't be happier with my research and the purchase.

Great mirrorless camera for beginners. Menu is easy to use and allows you to set custom buttons. I love that it has two memory card slot. Decent battery life mist better than the canon EOS RP. My only complaint is the Screen really only tilts up or down and does not swivel out.

I am really impressed with what this camera can do especially given the low price tag compared to the more professional models and the competition. Stabilization works great which allows for lower shutter speeds in less than optimal lighting conditions. I do recommend getting the Z lenses for best results. I am not using it professionally so I definitely have lower requirements and while it cannot shoot 10fps or log video it is certainly sufficient for my needs.

If you are new to shooting this camera is a must, save up,use leasing,however you get it. This rig takes amazing photos!

I love my Z5. I woyld definitely recommend this camera.

Lightweight camera. Still learning but so far the photos are sharp and clear. Great camera

This camera is amazing! There is not enough reviews on this camera. This camera has a lot of features in a very affordable package.

I am very satisfied with the purchase of this Nikon z5. I have always been a fan of Nikon cameras and decided on this camera as my choice for a mirrorless camera that will allow me to make use of the Nikon lenses that I have used over the years on my DSLR cameras.
