Class-leading autofocus detection down to -10EV1 and up to 7.5 stops of built-in image stabilization.
Bright, Immersive EVF
Sharp, detailed display—6x brighter than competitor models.
Creative Color Presets
Fine-tune your signature look with built-in Picture Controls. Make your own and discover even more in the cloud.
Pro-level Power
Full-frame 24.5MP BSI-CMOS sensor plus EXPEED 7 processing engine unlocks high-speed shooting up to 30fps.
Superior image quality and greater versatility.
The Z5II’s full-frame BSI-CMOS sensor is 50% larger than competitive APS-C models. That means it collects more light, so you can enjoy cleaner, more detailed images in all conditions. Plus, there’s no crop factor with full-frame/FX format Nikkor Z lenses, so wide-angles stay genuinely wide.
Fast, intelligent autofocus.
Powered by Nikon’s unique deep learning-based AI technology and finely-tuned to give you great results in a huge range of shooting situations.
Uncompromising speed.
Maximum frame rate of 14 frames per second in mechanical shutter mode and up to 30 frames per second4 (electronic shutter) with full autofocus.
Pre-Release Capture.
Sometimes you only recognize the decisive moment after it has passed. Capture the action before you fully press the shutter release button—at up to 30 fps—saving shots that would otherwise have been missed.
New opportunities in low light.
Your creativity doesn’t stop when the sun goes down, and neither does the Z5II. Keep on shooting even in almost complete darkness, with stunning high ISO image quality and a suite of features designed to unlock new creative possibilities in low light.
Class-leading viewfinder experience.
