Meet the Nikon Z5 II: A Full-Frame Camera Built for the Way You Create
Whether you're capturing fleeting moments, diving into video projects, or stepping up your creative game, the Nikon Z5 II is here to keep up. This next-generation full-frame mirrorless camera builds on its predecessor with faster performance, smarter autofocus, and improved low-light capabilities—making it a solid choice for photographers and creators looking for reliability and creative freedom.
With a new color preset button, an ultra-bright electronic viewfinder, and effortless sharing options, the Z5 II is designed to help you stay in the moment while elevating your craft.
Full-Frame Quality, Packed with Power
At the heart of the Z5 II is a 24.5MP FX-format sensor, working alongside Nikon’s powerful EXPEED 7 processor. This combination delivers beautifully detailed images, rich colors, and low noise—even when shooting in tricky lighting conditions.
Need speed? The camera can shoot up to 30 frames per second, ensuring you never miss a moment. And with an expanded ISO range of 50–204800, you can confidently shoot in everything from bright daylight to near darkness.
Autofocus That Sees What You See
Nikon has taken autofocus to the next level with deep-learning technology inherited from its flagship Z9. The Z5 II recognizes and tracks nine different types of subjects, from people and pets to birds, planes, and even bicycles. Dedicated Bird Detection mode ensures tack-sharp images of our feathered friends, making this an excellent choice for wildlife enthusiasts.
And with Auto-Area AF, the camera automatically detects and locks onto your subject—so you can focus on your creativity, not on adjusting settings.
Capture the Moment—Before It Even Happens
Ever missed a perfect shot by a fraction of a second? Nikon’s Pre-Release Capture feature helps solve that problem by buffering images for up to a full second before you press the shutter. That means you get the shot you meant to take, not just the one you managed to click in time.
Video, Your Way
The Z5 II isn’t just about stills. It’s packed with powerful video features, including 4K recording at up to 60 fps, Full HD at 120 fps for slow-motion, and extended recording times up to two hours. Built-in electronic stabilization keeps your footage smooth, and if you’re live-streaming, the camera is UAC/UAV compliant for plug-and-play setup.
For serious video creators, Nikon has added internal 10-bit recording with N-Log LUTs, plus four RED LUTs for cinematic color grading. And with Product Review mode, it's easier than ever to create content that stands out.
Steady Shots, No Matter What
With 5-axis in-body stabilization, the Z5 II compensates for up to five stops of camera shake—helping you capture sharper images, even in low light. Paired with compatible lenses, you can get up to 7.5 stops of stabilization, making handheld shooting more reliable than ever.
Color, the Way You Want It
Nikon has made it even easier to fine-tune your images in-camera. A new Picture Control button gives quick access to 31 built-in presets, even in Auto mode. You can preview these looks in real-time on the LCD screen, so you see exactly how your final shot will look before you press the shutter.
