“The Nikon Z 5 would be a great entry-level full-frame camera if not for its unreliable low light autofocus and slow burst speed.”
-
+
Good image quality, Compact, Affordable, Dual SD Slots
-
-
Slow low light autofocus, Inconsistent autofocus in mixed/low light, Slow 4.5 fps burst mode
![]() |
The Z5 is a very good entry-level full frame camera, but its relatively high launch price may just persuade some potential purchasers that it’s worth forking out the relatively little extra for the Z6. Compared to other brands, the Z5 is neither cheap nor expensive.
-
+
Solid, robust feeling build, Good EVF and tilting rear screen, Twin memory card slots
-
-
Only 4.5fps continuous shooting, 4K video is cropped, 24-50mm kit lens is limiting, Nikon Z6 is better value
![]() |
Users of Nikon’s DSLR cameras will find the small and lightweight Z5 has a familiar control layout and its menu is similarly structured. The bright, high-res EVF and touch-screen monitor will also make transitioning to mirrorless easy.
![]() |
The Nikon Z5 is a very solid introduction to the Nikon Z series and the kit lens is a very solid performer as well. There is a considerable saving to be made compared to the Z6 and Z7 and thus it widens the potential market without seriously affecting the end quality.
-
+
Excellent quality of results, Superb viewfinder, Dust and drip resistance, Good price point to enter superb Z system, Articulated screen, Built-in VR, Supports focus stacking, WiFi and Bluetooth connectivity, Handles well
-
-
Slow AF in low light, No lens hood provided
![]() |
The Nikon Z5 is the best entry-level full-frame mirrorless camera you can buy right now. It’s not perfect, but thanks to a blend of great image quality, a reliable autofocus performance, accessible handling and a weather-sealed body and tough body, the Z5 has a lot going for it.
-
+
Comfy grip and solid build, Logical control layout, High-resolution EVF, 5-axis AF system, Very capable AF system
-
-
Underwhelming burst shooting speed, Disappointing video specs including cropped 4K, Tilt-angle display, not vari-angle
![]() |
The Nikon Z5 has an enticing set of specifications for the entry-level full-frame user, especially when you consider just how small the camera is. If you are on the lookout for a fantastic everyday or travel camera, or just like the idea of a smaller than usual camera, then the Z5 is certainly...
-
+
Solid handling, Great viewfinder, Small and light
-
-
Limited frame rate for sports and action, 4K video cropped

We arrived to a cloudy horizon, but before we knew it, the clouds started burning away to reveal some of the finest light rays I’ve ever seen. I’m really impressed with the resolution and quality that the Z5 and NIKKOR Z 24-200mm f4-6.3 produces.
