Features

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 color preset button, an ultra-bright viewfinder, and easy sharing options, the camera offers a step up to creators seeking full-frame imagery.

- Excellent autofocus performance, including AF of nine subject types powered by deep learning-based AI technology and AF detection range down to -10 EV[1].
- More creative expression with Imaging Recipes and Flexible Color Picture Control.
- Dedicated Picture Control button for one-step access to in-camera color presets.
- Powerful vibration reduction with an effect equivalent to 7.5 stops in the center[2] and 6.0 stops at the periphery[2].
- Impressive high-sensitivity performance at a standard ISO of up to 64000 for stills and 51200 for video, thanks to the combination of the full-frame
- back-illuminated CMOS sensor and the power of the EXPEED 7 image-processing engine.
- Flexible in-camera video recording options with 12-bit N-RAW, 10-bit H.265, and 8-bit H.264.
- Full HD/120p for flexibility to create 4x slow motion videos in 8-bit H.264.
- Equipped with a bright, 3000 cd/m2 EVF inherited from higher-end models for improved shooting visibility.

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 airplanes 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.Pre-Release CaptureThe EXPEED 7 processor also unlocks Pre-Release Capture, a feature that helps make decisive moment shots easier by recording frames in a burst of up to 30 fps for up to a second prior to actually releasing the shutter. When this feature is activated, burst shooting will commence when the shutter is half-pressed, and the buffer will retain the frames after fully pressing the shutter.

 

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 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.

The Z5 II also features a Product Review mode and is UAC and UAV compliant for live web-streaming. Additionally, you can now record 10-bit video internally with Nikon's N-Log LUT and use four new RED LUTs as well.

 

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 stabilization regardless of the lens in use. With compatible lenses, up to 7.5 stops of stabilization is possible. Also, benefitting video recording, Electronic VR is available to help steady footage to suit handheld shooting.

 

Color 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 color presets can now be overlaid in the rear LCD screen, giving you the ability to visualize the color 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.
