Nikon Z5 Body + Nikon Z 24-50mm F/4-6.3 Lens

The Z 5 is a full-frame mirrorless camera basic model that inherits the superior power of expression and reliability of the Nikon Z 7 and Z 6, while also balancing high cost performance. It enables the rich expression of a wide variety of scenes, with an FX-format sensor capable of superior image quality and rendering capabilities in dark or dimly lit situations, and support for NIKKOR Z lenses that allows users to take advantage of beautiful blur characteristics (bokeh) to achieve a three-dimensional appearance with their imaging.

The camera is also equipped with an in-camera vibration reduction (VR) system that uses a 5-axis VR unit to provide camera-shake compensation equivalent to a 5.0-stop increase in shutter speed. What's more, a dedicated electronic VR function for movie recording works with in-camera VR to provide stable and effective camera-shake compensation with movie recording.

The Z 5 also offers 20 Creative Picture Controls that enable unique and original expression. Each Creative Picture Control theme provides a unique combination of hue, tone, saturation, and other settings tuned for a particular effect. In addition, individual parameters can be adjusted to suit individual preferences and expand power of expression. Creative Picture Controls can also be applied with movie recording at all sizes, including 4K UHD.

The Z 5 is equipped with a hybrid AF system that automatically switches between focal-plane phase-detection AF and contrast AF. Its 273 focus points cover a broad area of the frame — 90% of the image area horizontally and vertically — for easy focusing on subjects, even when they're at the edge of the frame. The camera is also equipped with Eye-Detection AF and Animal-Detection AF that track the faces and eyes of moving people, dogs, and cats in high precision.

This allows users to concentrate on communicating with, or framing, their subject without concern for focus point operation. Multiple eyes can be detected not only with live view photography, but with viewfinder photography as well. Using the multi selector or sub selector enables easy selection of the eye on which to focus during shooting. Human and animal faces can also be detected with movie recording. In addition, the AF detection range begins at -3 EV*, ensuring certain acquisition of the intended subject, even in dimly lit surroundings.

The Z 5 offers the same level of durability and dust- and drip-resistance as the Nikon Z 7 and Z 6, allowing users to concentrate on recording with peace of mind during a variety of conditions and environments. The approximately 3,690k-dot electronic viewfinder has inherited the sharp and natural viewing signature to the Z series, enabling precise confirmation of the composition and details all the way to the extreme corners of the frame.

A touch screen that provides intuitive operation with autofocusing, shutter release, and even settings adjustment has been adopted for the 3.2-inch tilting TFT LCD monitor. The new EN-EL15c Rechargeable Li-ion Battery has an increased capacity that enables the capture of approximately 470* photos with a single charge. What's more, in addition to conventional USB charging, the Z 5 also supports USB power delivery while on.

This new feature allows users to comfortably focus on recording movies and time-lapse movies for longer periods of time. The camera is also compatible with the SnapBridge app, which can be used to transfer photos and videos recorded with the camera to a smart device, and to control camera operation remotely from a smart device. This allows users to easily share their images with others via social media.

Additionally, in response to user feedback, double memory card slots that support readily available SD cards (UHS-II) have been adopted, a first for Nikon mirrorless cameras.

The Nikon Z5 + 24-50mm comes with a full 2 year Australian warranty.
