I was told that one of the main improvement in the Nikon D5 camera will be the new “killer AF” – it will be much better than anything else available today. Here are few new D5 specs:
- There is a possibility for two different D5 models – one with double CF and another with double XQD memory cards (this is probably why I was initially getting conflicting reports on the memory cards)
- ISO during video up to 102,400
- Touch screen (not sure)
- No built-in Wi-Fi, but there will be an optional wireless adapter
- I have a potential announcement date of January 12th, but this is after the CES show so I am not sure about that either
Here again are the old, previously reported specs in case you missed them:
- New 20MP FX sensor (confident)
- New focusing module with larger coverage and 153 autofocus points (confident)
- Native high ISO of 102,400 (confident)
- 4K video 60/30fps (confident)
- 15 fps (not sure)
- Full HD slow motion (not sure)
- Announcement expected in early 2016 (confident)
