Regardless of time and place, you'll benefit from the exceptional precision of scene recognition and top-notch image quality at high ISO values. You'll be amazed at the quality of 4K/UHD video, and the camera's built-in Picture Control system makes it easy to add your own personal style, whether you're shooting photos or recording video.
Superior image quality is maintained even in low-light conditions. With sensitivity settings from ISO 100 to ISO 51,200 (expandable up to an ISO equivalent of 1,640,00), you'll always be prepared for the dark. Remarkable image quality across the ISO range is provided by the fast EXPEED 5 image processing engine, and cropped enlargements captured even at high ISO sensitivities remain just as high quality. Use all available residual light with the ''Hi 5'' setting, which corresponds to the incredible ISO of 1,640,000.
Record stunning video in 4K/UHD 30p or Full HD (1080p) at frame rates up to 50p/60p. The camera offers uncompressed HDMI output, so this can even be done simultaneously to an external device as well as to the in-camera SD memory card. By recording in MP4 or AAC format, you optimize videos for your smart device. In addition, Nikons electronic image stabilizer significantly minimizes the effects of camera shake when shooting freehand Full HD movies.
With the combination of built-in interval timer and 4K/UHD Fortmat time-lapse feature, you can turn simple street scenes or sunrises into dramatic high-speed sequences. In the process, exposure compensation reduces unwanted flicker effects when recording with one of the automatic exposure modes like Aperture Priority.
Thanks to continuous shooting at 8 frames per second, the moment is yours. Capture up to 50 NEF (RAW) or 100 JPEG images in a quick burst. All the while capturing the ultimate shot even in a flurry of motion, never missing the decisive moment again. Incredible focus tracking and exposure adjustment prevents quality degradation during continuous shooting, despite the high speed.
Focusing is now as easy as tapping the flat, tilting touchscreen monitor. Videos and photos can even be shot from an overhead position or fascinating viewing angles. You can use the 8 cm (3.2 inch) diagonal tiltable monitor to control autofocus and shutter release with the touch controls when shooting in Live View. The easy-to-reach control dial and multi-function selector let you easily change camera settings while shooting.
Capture the ultimate image without any possible distractions. This is made possible by the otpical viewfinder with pentaprism and a field coverage of approx. 100%. The viewfinder's optical system provides an incredibly clear live image. Sunlight, light reflections and movements outside the image field are blocked, so that the viewfinder image corresponds exactly to the shot. And when using a telephoto lens, the viewfinder lets you take a position with a better grip.
