A few days ago, we heard through the grapevine that the first images of the new Nikon D5 hit the Internet. Recent pictures have popped up since then, offering us a full look at this upcoming camera and maybe a sneak peek at what it can do.
Nikon Rumors has released a bunch of photos of the brand-new D5 DSLR shown below.
Among rumors, some specs include a 20MP FX sensor, an updated autofocus module with more coverage and 153 points, and a standard ISO of 102,400. People are crossing their fingers for a faster fps, shooting at at least 15 fps; 4K video capabilities; a sturdier mirror; and smooth slow motion in full HD. The body’s design seems pretty close to the D4 but with some repositioned buttons for better handling and comfort.
While Nikon hasn’t said a peep about the D5 yet, we’re hoping for an official word in spring 2016. The D4 already excels in sports, wedding, and action shots, so the D5 is bound to outdo it. Its reveal might just line up with the start of the Olympics in Rio.
We’re all hoping that the buzz around the new camera isn’t just about topping the D4 but marks a leap forward that’ll shake up the market.
