Nikon has released an entry-level full-frame mirrorless camera called the Z5 II. The model is the first new entry in the brand's series in the last five years, and has several notable innovations over its predecessor. At the heart of the Nikon Z5 II is a 24.5-megapixel sensor with sensor stabilization. The proprietary Expeed 7 processor provides support for continuous shooting in RAW at 14 fps, and in JPEG format the speed can be up to 30 fps. Another feature of the model is 273-point hybrid autofocus with recognition of up to nine subjects, including birds, cats, dogs, airplanes and cars. For the camera to ?recognize? the subject, it is enough to occupy at least 3% of the frame. The camera can record 4K @ 30 fps video with Nikon's N-RAW and N-Log color profiles, and 4K @ 60 fps with 1.5x cropping. Rounding out the list of features are a button for quick color profile selection and a swivel 3.2-inch display with up to 3,000 nits of brightness, as well as an electronic viewfinder (OLED, 3.69MP). The Nikon Z5 II ?body? costs £1599 in the UK market, and the camera can be bought for £1859 when bundled with a 24-50mm lens. |
