Nikon 1 J5 Mirrorless Camera with 180° Tilting Touch Screen

Nikon launched their latest Nikon 1 J5 Mirrorless Camera in India. Nikon’s first Mirrorless camera is launch announcement was done on 2nd April 2015. Nikon has also revealed their latest 1 Series Camera features and price. The new Nikon 1 J5 Mirrorless Camera screen is now tiltable for the first time, and flexes through a full 180 degrees for those all-important high-res selfies. The J5 has a fairly substantial grip, unlike its boxy predecessors, and Nikon has adopted the now-ubiquitous silver and black retro color scheme. The NIKON 1 J5 is an extremely portable compact and lightweight camera, a primary characteristic of the Nikon 1 series, with which the world’s fastest continuous shooting with AF at up to approximately 20 fps, as well as the world’s shortest shooting time lag, have been achieved. It offers moving-subject capturing performance that exceeds that of digital SLR cameras, and even better image quality and operation than ever before.

  • Design. From the two-tone with leatherette aesthetic to the more common control layout, this looks the least like its more clean-featured, square-buttoned siblings. Nikon joins the crowd with a new flip-up LCD display for selfies and groupies, but it doesn’t sacrifice the ability to tilt.

  • Sensor. While it still uses the 1-inch CX-format, the camera incorporates a 20.8-megapixel sensor — the highest-resolution yet in the Nikon 1 series.
  • Features. The image processor jumps to Expeed 5A from 4A, which brings with it some new features. Most notable, it will do 4K movies at 15 frames per second; Nikon promises it “doesn’t look cartoonish.” Like the V3, it can now do higher-resolution slow-motion video playback, 3 seconds of 720/120p along with the older faster-frame-rate choices at lower resolutions. There’s also electronic image stabilization and the ability to use Active D-Lighting with movies as well. It also gets interval recording and time-lapse (300 images at 5-, 10- or 30-second intervals that plays as a 10-second video in-camera). A new sports scene mode automatically switches on continuous autofocus, turns off face-priority and quick review and increases the shutter speed. It will also group bursts during playback. There are some new special effects that bring it into parity with every other camera, and the inclusion of NFC for initiating Wi-Fi connections.
