First Nikon D5 camera review now online

By [NR] admin | Published: January 11, 2016

Ole J Liodden, (see his previous guest post) just published the first Nikon D5 review/test report. You can read the entire article here:

“As you already has understood – the new Nikon D5 camera is in my opinion not only a small improvement, but has set new standards especially regarding the AF-system and High ISO performance which will be hard to beat for other camera models. For me it looks like Nikon has found back to the “Nikon DNA” and again has a camera that is on top of the line. I’m really looking forward to get my final version of this camera (not Beta) and use it on my upcoming photo expeditions.”

Ole’s article includes several amazing photos taken with the D5 (more D5 photos from Ole can be found here, here, here and here). There are also some high ISO samples:

Check out also this D500 rumor from 2008 🙂

Here are the updates on my last “what to expect” post:
