  • Fantastic Mirrorless Camera for Enthusiasts!
Style: Camera Body Only Set: Body Only
I've been using the Nikon Z5 for a few months now, and it's exceeded my expectations in every way. The image quality is outstanding, especially in low light conditions. The autofocus is lightning fast and accurate, making it a breeze to capture those spontaneous moments. The in-body stabilization is a game-changer, giving me sharp shots even with slower shutter speeds. The ergonomic design feels comfortable in my hands, and the intuitive touchscreen interface makes navigation a breeze. I love the EVF - it's clear, bright, and provides an accurate preview of the final shot. The Z5's battery life has also been impressive, lasting through a full day of shooting without needing a recharge. Switching from my old DSLR was seamless, thanks to the included FTZ adapter that allowed me to use my existing F-mount lenses. The Z5's compact size and lightweight build make it a great travel companion, without compromising on performance. Overall, the Nikon Z5 is a fantastic mirrorless camera that strikes the perfect balance between affordability and high-end features. Whether you're a beginner looking to step up your photography game or a seasoned enthusiast, this camera won't disappoint. Highly recommended! ... show more

  • Exceeds expectations
Style: Camera Body Only Set: Body Only
I have been a Nikon DSLR shooter for well over a decade. I currently own the D7200(2), D600, D610, D800 and D850 and was reluctant to transition to mirrorless. I had heard a lot of negativities about the initial Nikon mirrorless cameras, which fueled my reluctance. Nikon's continued mirrorless updates encouraged me purchase the Z5. My initial expectations for this camera were more or less, middle of the road. I have owned this camera for six weeks and it has exceeded my expectations. From a physical perspective, I have large hands and generally prefer the larger body of a DSLR. From a performance perspective, I find the eye auto-focus, IBIS, customization and image quality to be better than expected. I will be using this camera primarily for still photos. The attached images were taken handheld using a Tokina 100mm 2.8 macro lens with FTZ adapter, in manual focus or Tamron 17-35mm 2.8/4 in auto-focus. Although this is considered an entry level camera, the overall features make it much more. ... show more

  • I'm glad I chose Z5
Style: Camera Body Only Set: Body Only
Why I chose Z5 If you're upgrading from an entry-level DSLR camera and like me, you're focused on image quality because you like shooting portraits/ppl, landscapes and street, this is THE camera to choose. It's because, nothing more than what Z5 offers is needed and money can be saved for LENSES. There are other cameras (mainly from Canon and Sony) that can be considered but for me, nothing beats Nikon colors, so I chose Z5. It came with 0 damage and works fine. Low light I'm happy with the photos I've taken so far, even in low light, where image stabilization can let you shoot at even 1/9 shutter speed (while hand held) and if you're hands are steady there's no shake blur. Z5 handles high ISO just fine, and you won't even need ISO that's too high 40% of the time, unless the lighting is terrible and boring anyway. Two slots for SD cards can be lifesaving for commissioned photography, as you know the cards can be damaged and photos - lost. You can't afford that. I must say, however, when I insert the 2nd SD card, the light that indicates processing turns on for ab. half a minute, so you can't take pictures before it's gone. I hope it's temporary or it's the card itself to blame. I'll update this if the issue gets resolved. I haven't taken the camera in the rainy day yet, but it's weather sealed and I expect that all is fine. Ergonomically, Z5 is very comfortable - you have all the buttons and dials placed intuitively and you have customizable buttons - you can choose what they do. FYI: The sensor is similar to the one in D750 but Z5 is still better due to a newer processor. If you're into Nikon system, new Nikon Z line is already the present and obviously the future and the next thing to focus on is this - going for a more expensive bodies won't make you a better photographer, that choice should be made out of necessity, like if you're into vlogging you'll need a fully articulated screen (Z5 rotates on only horizontal axis, so that's up and down), and so on. Otherwise Z5 is excellent. Match this body with cool lenses and do your best in practice. Good luck! ... show more

  • Good entry level mirrorless camera
Style: Camera Body Only Set: Body Only
Good upgrade from a D5000. Image quality is very good. Focusing could be a bit quicker and with the 50-400 lens, it’ll sometimes focus on something other than the target.
