Nikon Z5 to be announced in late July

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!

  1. Sony A7sIII will be announced in late July, 1-2 weeks after the EOS-R5 announcement on July 9
  2. Sony A5 will be announced in late August or early September at max.

There might be also a new A7IV coming by very end 2020 (October-November).
