After years of retardation by rivals when it comes to shooting video (and then suddenly Buying The manufacturer of the Red Cinema Camera), Nikon is pushing new boundaries in this area. His last elves is $ 1699 24-megapixel full frame Z5 IIPerhaps the cheapest camera without mirrors so far to maintain internal raw video. It also offers improved autofocus with new AI forces, cleaner images and improved image stabilization.
Z5 II is a remake of wholesale of Original Z5 And it starts with a video. Although it is still limited to 4K 30 FPS and cut 4K 60 FPS, it can now capture these formats using the company’s 12-bit N-early format with N-Log, along with a 10-bit H.265 and 8-bit H.264. Interestingly, he will record in N-early to SDXC UHS-II cards, as the camera lacks high-speed CFEXPress slots.

Nikon also promises a very improved autofocus, enhanced by a new image and technology processing engine borrowed from their high -end Z9 and Z8 models. The Z5 II can now be locked faster for the subjects, especially human eyes, faces and bodies, and work in a lower light up to -10 EV, compared to -3 EV before. Meanwhile, the AI ​​system can detect up to nine types of animal -ranging object (including bird detection mode) to bicycles. When working at Auto-AF AF, these subjects can be found, focused on and monitored automatically.
The native ISO has been increased to 100-64000 (50-204 800 in extended modes), compared to a maximum of 51 200 before. This should improve the noise levels in the ISO ranges, the company said. However, the resolution is still limited to 24 megapixels.

However, this can tempt the makers of films and others away from the camera sensors at similar prices from the likes of Fujifilm and Sony.
