Nikon ins’t asleep and will officially announce a sort of Canon EOS-RP competitor by end of July. These are the rumored specs:
- The Z5 will have the same EVF as the Z6
- No top panel LCD
- Dual SD UHS-II memory card slots
- 24MP full-frame sensor (not sure BSI or not)
- IBIS
- Magnesium alloy camera body
- 1m dots LCD screen resolution
- New battery: Nikon EN-EL15c
- USB-C camera powering, not just charging
- Same AF system as in the Z6
- 1.7x video crop in 4k, no SloMo option
- 6fps burst
- Official announcement expected in the second half of July (I have conflicting reports on the exact date)
- The camera will start shipping later this year
With Canon and Sony unloading some heavy guns in July I believe Nikon should step up to and launch a Z9 soon!
