Nikon Z5 II Mirrorless Camera with 24-200mm f/4-6.3 Lens

An reliable companion for your creative endeavors, the Nikon Z5 II enhances its predecessor by featuring faster processing capabilities, advanced subject recognition autofocus, and superior low-light performance. It includes a new color preset button, an exceptionally bright viewfinder, and convenient sharing options, making it an ideal choice for creators in pursuit of full-frame photography.

24.5MP FX Sensor & EXPEED 7 Image Processor

The 24.5MP BSI CMOS sensor, designed in a full-frame FX format, is integrated with an EXPEED 7 image processor, offering a versatile blend of enhanced sensitivity, refined image quality, rapid AI-driven autofocus, and the capability for continuous shooting at full resolution up to 30 frames per second. With a native sensitivity range of ISO 100-64000, this system is adept at handling a wide variety of lighting situations, and it can be further extended to ISO 50-204800 for challenging lighting environments. The synergy between the sensor's resolution and size also ensures high-quality images with smooth color gradients and minimized noise across the entire sensitivity spectrum.

Autofocus You Can Trust

Leveraging advanced algorithms and deep learning technology derived from the Z9, the Z5 II is equipped with sophisticated Subject Detection capabilities for nine distinct subject categories. This allows it to identify a wide array of subjects, including humans, animals, airplanes, and bicycles. Additionally, it includes a highly regarded Bird Detection mode. In Auto-Area AF mode, the camera automatically detects, focuses on, and tracks these subjects, ensuring they remain sharply in focus even as they move across the frame.

UHD 4K Video Recording

The Z5 II is not only proficient in capturing still images but has also enhanced its video recording capabilities. It now supports UHD 4K video recording at frame rates of up to 60 fps and Full HD recording at up to 120 fps, with a maximum recording duration of two hours. Additional features include a video self-timer, built-in electronic Vibration Reduction, and the option to save video files either to the camera's memory cards or to an external recorder via HDMI output. Furthermore, the camera allows for in-camera time-lapse shooting, enabling users to create a finished UHD 4K video file directly from the device.

Sensor-Shift Vibration Reduction

The body features a 5-axis sensor-shift Vibration Reduction (VR) system that provides stabilization equivalent to five stops, irrespective of the lens being utilized. When paired with compatible lenses, stabilization can be enhanced to as much as 7.5 stops. Additionally, for video recording, Electronic VR is incorporated to ensure smooth footage during handheld shooting.

Color Control for Creators

Nikon has introduced a Picture Control button on the Z5 II, allowing users to easily access its 31 built-in presets, even when in Auto mode. The color presets can now be displayed on the rear LCD screen, enabling you to see the color changes in real-time as you create. Additionally, Creator Recipes developed by other Nikon users can be accessed via the Nikon Imaging Cloud, allowing for easy downloading and integration with the existing presets.

Body Design and Connectivity

• A sizable 3.2-inch LCD screen with a resolution of 2.1 million dots enhances brightness, ensuring clear and vibrant image playback as well as live view shooting. The vari-angle touchscreen design facilitates more intuitive operation, navigation, and control of settings.
  
  
• An exceptionally bright electronic viewfinder with a resolution of 3.69 million dots is available for comfortable viewing at eye level.
  
  
• The camera features dual SD memory card slots, both of which are compatible with the UHS-II protocol, allowing for rapid and efficient saving of photo and video files.
  
  
• The headphone jack also functions as a port for Nikon's optional MC-DC3 Remote Release Cord, while the USB-C terminal supports both camera charging and USB power delivery. Additionally, a micro-HDMI port is included for external recording and live view capabilities.
  
  
• Integrated SnapBridge connectivity allows for the seamless transfer of low-resolution images and remote shooting functionalities. Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) and Wi-Fi facilitate communication between the camera and smart devices, enabling remote shutter triggering and live view display from the camera for distance work.
  
  
• The included EN-EL15c rechargeable lithium-ion battery offers approximately 380 shots per charge, and in-camera charging via USB is supported, even while the camera is operational.
  
  

Nikon NIKKOR Z 24-200mm f/4-6.3 VR Lens

The NIKKOR Z 24-200mm f/4-6.3 VR from Nikon offers a versatile one-lens solution suitable for a wide range of shooting scenarios. This all-in-one lens features an 8.3x zoom that spans from wide-angle to telephoto focal lengths. Its sophisticated optical design incorporates a combination of aspherical and ED elements, complemented by ARNEO and Nano Crystal Coatings, ensuring sharp, clear images with high contrast and accurate color reproduction, making it ideal for various lighting environments.

Additionally, the lens's impressive zoom capabilities are enhanced by Vibration Reduction image stabilization, which effectively reduces the effects of camera shake by up to 5 stops, allowing for sharper handheld photography. A stepping motor enables fast, quiet, and precise autofocus, along with full-time manual focus override, catering to both still photography and video recording needs. Furthermore, a programmable control ring allows for intuitive adjustments across a range of camera and exposure settings.

• All-in-one zoom covers wide-angle to telephoto fields of view and is designed for FX-format Z-mount mirrorless cameras, however, can also be used with DX cameras where it will provide a 36-300mm equivalent focal length range.
  
  
• Two aspherical elements and one aspherical ED element is used to reduce spherical aberrations and distortion in order to realize sharp imagery with accurate rendering.
  
  
• Two extra-low dispersion elements greatly reduce color fringing and chromatic aberrations throughout the zoom range in order to produce greater clarity and color rendering.
  
  
• ARNEO and Nano Crystal Coats are used to prevent ghosting, reflections, and flare in order to realize improved contrast and clarity when working in strong lighting and backlit conditions. The Nano Crystal Coat controls incidental light from a diagonal direction while the ARNEO Coat controls incidental light from a vertical direction. A Super Integrated Coating is also featured on multiple elements to help ensure consistently accurate colors.
  
  
• Stepping motor delivers impressively smooth, quiet, and fast autofocus performance that is well-suited to both stills and video applications. Full-time manual focus override is also possible and an internal focusing design is used, where only the internal lens groups are moved during focusing, to maintain the overall length of the lens during use and to promote faster focusing speeds.
  
  
• Vibration Reduction image stabilization minimizes the appearance of camera shake by up to 5 stops for sharper handheld shooting.
  
  
• Programmable Control Ring is, by default, set to adjust manual focus, but can also be used to control aperture or exposure compensation.
  
  
• Specialized electromagnetic aperture mechanism provides greater exposure control stability that is especially beneficial when working with fast continuous shooting rates.
  
  
• Rounded seven-blade diaphragm promotes a pleasing out of focus quality that benefits the use of shallow depth of field and selective focus techniques.
  
  
• Dust- and moisture-resistant lens barrel benefits the lens' use in inclement conditions.
