Body + FTZ II
Better model
According to our mirrorless camera expert
With the Nikon Z5 + FTZ II, you can get started as a novice photographer. You receive a Z5 + FTZ II adapter. This allows you to use F-mount lenses from your Nikon SLR camera on the Nikon Z5. So you don't have to get rid of your old lenses. All the lens functions still work as you're used to. The Z5 has a large full-frame 24.3-megapixel sensor, so you can take clear pictures in low light situations. And thanks to its compact and lightweight design, the camera is suitable for your travels. It's also splash proof, so you can take it with you when it rains.
Focus fastThe Z5 has a hybrid AF focusing system with 273 focus points. These points cover the entire width of the image. This way, you can accurately and quickly focus on your subject. When you're taking pictures of people or animals, turn on eye detection. The camera then automatically focuses on the eyes of your subject. It also holds focus on moving subjects, which makes it suitable for videography and action photography.
Built-in image stabilizationThe built-in image stabilization reduces motion blur by up to 5 stops. As a result, you can take sharp handheld photos with slower shutter speeds. That's useful when you're photographing in dark circumstances.
User-friendly controlsOn the tiltable touchscreen of the camera, you can easily adjust the settings. This makes it easier to control the camera. And thanks to the dual memory card slot, you can back up your photos and videos. For example, store your files on 2 cards at the same time. That's useful when you're photographing important events.

Options
The Nikon Z5 is very easy to use thanks to the clear control buttons and command dials. The ergonomic grip allows me to hold the camera firmly. The built-in image stabilization ensures sharp handheld photos, even with slow shutter speeds. For a full-frame camera, the model is very compact and not heavy. This makes the camera very pleasant to shoot with for a longer period of time.
Compact design and ergonomic grip holds firmly The grip of the camera is quite deep, allowing me to hold it firmly. The design reminds me of Nikon's SLR cameras, but compact. My hand fits exactly around the body and felt nice. The camera has a compact design and is not heavy for a full frame camera. This ensures more wearing comfort while shooting. You do not immediately need a camera bag to go out with this kit. The body with extendable 24-50mm kit lens is light enough to hold or wear around your neck.
Easy operation The control buttons and command dials are like any other camera. Think of the universal PASM dial, ISO and exposure compensation button. This made setting up the camera very easy. I can quickly change settings with the large rotary knob. For example from aperture to shutter priority. You even have 3 positions on this rotary knob that you can set to your own liking. It strikes me that I use the autofocus joystick more and more. It makes my focus point move even faster. This is more efficient than a jog wheel or a four-point button.
Built-in image stabilization While shooting, I notice that the camera is stable. This Nikon Z5 has built-in image stabilization and calls it VR. The Vibration Reduction constantly compensates for my vibrations and movements. As a result, I shoot with slower shutter speeds and do not immediately need a tripod. Hand-held filming is also very smooth. In situations with less light I keep my ISO values relatively low, the stabilization provides clearer images. Image stabilization in the lens is no longer necessary, the image is free of shocks and vibrations with every Nikon lens you use. This also works with the Nikon F lenses along with the FTZ adapter.
