Nikon has unveiled its latest flagship camera. The 20.5-megapixel Nikon-FX format full frame DSLR sports a 153-point AF system, 12 fps continuous shooting, a new CMOS sensor, and a new EXPEED 5 image-processing engine.
US$6,496.95 on Amazon, released from 15 March, 2016. Price & availability in Singapore TBA.
The FX-format full frame D5 DSLR is Nikon’s latest flagship camera.
The D5 is the first Nikon to come with highest standard ISO sensitivity at 102400, and the ability to shoot 4K UHD (3840 x 2160) movies.
The Wireless Transmitter WT-6, available separately, comes handy for high-speed wireless network communications.
A high-resolution 2.3-inch touch screen 2,359-dot LCD monitor, fast communications with both wired networks via built-in Ethernet connector and wireless networks, alongside double memory card slots make for a highly efficient workflow.
Contributing to greater autofocus (AF), auto exposure (AE) and auto white balance (AWB), is the incorporation of a new 180K-pixel RGB sensor for the Advanced Scene Recognition System.
The D5 consumes less power, adopts a highly precise and durable shutter, and has increased camera reliability in terms of control precision, strength and durability.

A new dawn to a new day. A new year for a new beginning.
I hope this sunrise is symbolic of the hope that the new year brings to those looking for a new beginning in their lives. Taken handheld using a Nikon D750 with AF-S Nikkor 24-120mm f/4G ED VR lens. Photo credit: John Tan.
Here’s wishing everyone a fantastic 2016, a new year that will bring new aspirations and immense fulfillment.
About the photo
Snapped this shot while strolling on the beach in Thailand a few weeks ago in pre-dawn darkness.
It was a rare shot for me in that the horizon was clear of the usual haze and layer of clouds so the rising sun could be seen emerging from the horizon itself.
It was breathtaking how the nascent sun lit up the sky with golden and red hues as it tore itself from the horizon.
