It is faulty. Has a problem that reseting and firmware upgrade did not fix - look here I posted about it with photo and video illustrating the problem. I live in Israel and don't know what to do..!

Full frame at Nikon?s lowest price ever. Now all my legacy glass has vibration reduction! Articulated, touch sensitive screen and just enough buttons makes accessing this body?s functionality easy. Focus peaking makes manual focusing a snap, even for hand held macro work. Love it.

Starting in the 1970?s I started taking photos with a Fuji 35mm film camera and a Cannon AE1. In 2006 after using point and shoot cameras for several years, I decided to get a DSLR and I had always wanted to have a Nikon so I started looking. For Christmas that year I got a Nikon D40. I did not totally understand the difference between crop-sensor and full-frame cameras. I was happy to be taking portraits again. In 2010, I decided I needed a "better" camera, and got the Nikon D3100. This was an improvement but I was still not as happy as I thought I should be. So in 2017, I added the Nikon D5600 to my collection. I was happy with this camera and finally started acquiring different lenses. I added a Tamron 16-300mm, Tokina 11-20mm, Nikkor 50mm, and a Sigma 120-400mm. Now jump forward to 2020, I really wanted to get a mirrorless camera. And Nikon had just announced the Z50. I was looking forward to the advantages of the mirrorless camera and being crop sensor all of my lenses would still work with the FTZ adapter (my belief). My wife knew I wanted a full-frame and not another crop-sensor camera, but also wanted to be frugal with any of our funds. Then Nikon announced the Z5 and I was excited, I kept going back and forth between the Z50 and the Z5 though as most of my lenses were crop-sensor. After reading several articles about the FTZ and non-Nikon lenses, I was afraid that none of my lenses would work on the FTZ except my 50mm would work. So I finally decided to get a full-frame instead of the Z50, figuring that I will sell any of my old equipment that does not work. This was the first step in my decision and now needed to decide which full-frame camera. In addition to full-frame, I also wanted in-body stabilization. Since I had decided to sell my old equipment, I even considered changing brands. I looked at the Sony and Cannon but I have been extremely pleased with the Nikon and decided to stay with them and get the FTZ adapter with whichever Z series I chose. So the decision came down to money, do I get the Z5, Z6, or Z7. I decided that I did not need the 45mp sensor and the price tag of the Z7. The Z6 price had come down since the release of the Z6II and Z7II. So I looked at the major differences between these 2 cameras. I decided that there were several differences to consider, they were: 1.7 Crop factor for 4k video, BSI sensor, 4.5 fps vs 12 fps, and SD vs XQD. In my case I do extremely limited video and almost no sports and limited wildlife shooting (mostly portraits, some landscapes, and travel). I have been able to get great bird shots on my D3100 (3 fps). With the Z5, I found a refurbished model with warranty and a 24-50mm kit lens for $1200 add to that the FTZ adapter and I was almost at $1500. The Z6 was $1500 for the body alone, add to that the 24-50mm f4-6.3 @ $400, and the FTZ adapter @ $250, this brought the price of the Z6 to $2150. So with a difference of $650, I decided to get the Z5 and avoid XQD cards too. Since the camera arrived I have been ecstatic it has exceeded my expectations. With my DSLR cameras I found myself almost always shooting in Aperture mode, since it has arrived I have been using the Z5 in manual mode almost exclusively. This is due to the fact that when you look through the viewfinder you know immediately that the shot is either under or over exposed and quick corrections fix that. I don?t have to remember to check my meter. On that point the information displayed in the viewfinder is much easier to read than on any of the DSLR cameras that I have used. I also love the fact that I can program the ring on the Z lens to be focus, aperture, iso, or nothing. I do not regret going full-frame mirrorless at all. The kit lens is good for most shots especially my travel shots. The lens is small and it does not bother me to rotate the zoom ring before using. It is not my first choice as the 24-50mm reach is smaller than I like. I would rather have had the 24-70mm or the 24-200mm for better reach but I like the retracted size and I tend to leave this on when I am traveling as it is easier to pack. I even spent an afternoon shooting some simple test videos, and I love how easy it was to get great looking video. I shot in both 4k and 1080 and it was easy to adjust for the crop factor by changing my distance slightly. I may even spend more time with video now. My only disappointment with the video is in the built-in microphone, it is ok for short distance and no background noise. However, I plugged in an external microphone and this resolved all issues. All in all as you can tell by this review, I have been happy with my purchase, and definitely satisfied with the money spent. This leaves more money for Glass. On a side note all of my non-Nikon lenses have worked on the FTZ adapter in single-focus, I have not yet tried them all in continuous-focus as I stated above most of my shooting is portraits. In the future i will replace these with Native Z glass but for now I am happy.

Z 5 Full Frame Mirrorless Camera Body with NIKKOR Z 24-200mm f/4-6.3 VR Zoom Lens
See how limitless your creativity can be with the 24-200mm Lens Kit. Pairing the sophisticated yet easy-to-use 24 megapixel Z 5 with the compact, all-in-one NIKKOR Z 24-200mm f/4-6.3 VR zoom lens, this kit gives you ultimate flexibility. Go where your inspiration takes you - capturing incredible 4-K videos, wide-angle interiors, expansive landscapes, telephoto close-ups, and wildlife. And that ½s just the beginning.
- Nikon Z 5 Full Frame Mirrorless Camera Body -
Push the limits of your creativity with Z 5, an innovative full frame mirrorless camera built around Nikon's revolutionary Z mount. Compact yet powerful, simple yet sophisticated, it's ready to grow with you. Whatever your skill level, the Z 5 delivers detailed imagery, precision autofocus and the tools you need to be as creative as possible.
The full picture.
Harness the entire view of expansive full frame lenses, and capture over 50% more image area than crop-sensor cameras. Z 5's 24.3 MP full frame CMOS sensor produces intensively detailed images, lifelike 4K UHD video, ultra shallow depth-of-field and particularly clean low-light shots.
Super powered.
Z 5 is powered by Nikon's fast, comprehensive EXPEED 6 image processing system. It's the secret behind the camera's sensational photo and video quality, autofocus performance, low-light capabilities, distortion control, image clarity, color reproduction and more.
The stability you crave.
Sharpness starts with stability, and Z 5 has one of the best in-camera image stabilization systems available. NIKKOR Z lenses activate 5-axis VR image stabilization-up to five stops of stabilization in up to five directions: yaw, pitch, roll, X and Y. Compatible F-Mount NIKKOR lenses-even those without built-in VR-activate 3-axis VR image stabilization. Great for stills, even better for video.
In the blink of an iris.
Freeze time with shutter speeds as fast as 1/8000 of a second-fast enough to capture moments invisible to the naked eye. When shooting with wide aperture settings for shallow depth-of-field and blurred backgrounds, that speed can also be used to control your shot's brightness.
Right. In any light.
Creativity doesn't wait for perfect lighting, so neither does Z 5. Its ISO sensitivity goes all the way up to ISO 51,200 (expandable to ISO 102,400) with superb sharpness, detail and clarity. Keep shooting into the night, and bring a new mood to your style with the drama of low light.
Easy. Sophisticated.
Fully automatic. Totally manual.
Sometimes you need to just point and shoot. Other times you want to fine tune every little detail. Z 5 is up for either challenge, going from fully automatic to totally manual with the turn of a dial.
Go quiet.
In can't miss moments-like weddings, speeches or performances-turn on Silent Mode and capture photo after photo without drawing any attention. This is also great for photographing pets and wildlife.
The eyes say it all.
Great portraits put focus on the eyes. Z 5's powerful Eye-Detection Autofocus quickly finds your subject's eyes-humans, cats and dogs alike-and puts them in sharp focus. It even follows them as they move behind objects in the frame.
Focus anywhere.
Z 5's sensor is practically covered in focus points-273 of them, to be precise. That means wherever your subject is within the frame, there's almost certainly a focus point locked on them.
Flash of genius.
Z 5 is compatible with Nikon's Creative Lighting System. Fill in shadows, make subjects stand out, enhance natural light and add artistry with an optional external Nikon Speedlight flash.
Two for the road.
Z 5 includes dual UHS-II SD card slots. Use them together for overflow storage, automatic back up or separating file types like RAW and JPEG or stills and videos.
You see it. You get it.
See your shot clearly through Z 5's outstanding electronic viewfinder. It activates when you put your eye to it, offering a high-resolution glare-free view of how your shot will actually look-exposure, ISO, white balance and Picture Controls are all visible in realtime.
One mount for all.
Works with Z-Mount lenses.
Built around Nikon's revolutionary Z mount, Z 5 is compatible with every cutting-edge NIKKOR Z lens, from the highly acclaimed NIKKOR Z 50mm f/1.8 S walkaround prime lens to the telephoto powerhouse NIKKOR Z 70-200mm f/2.8 VR S.
Works with F-Mount lenses.
Attach the optional Mount Adapter FTZ and extend full compatibility to over 90 F-Mount NIKKOR lenses: full frame fisheye lenses, macro lenses, fast primes, super telephoto zooms and everything in between.
Note: Approximately 360 classic F-Mount NIKKOR lenses can be used with varying compatibility.
- NIKKOR Z 24-200mm f/4-6.3 VR Zoom Lens -
One lens. So many possibilities.
Ready for your next excursion, the full frame NIKKOR Z 24-200mm f/4-6.3 VR is a versatile all-in-one zoom lens that covers every shot along the way with remarkable true to life detail. Immersive landscapes, arresting architecture, captivating portraits, candid street photography and everything in between-all with a single compact, lightweight lens. Beyond its incredible flexibility and convenience, the NIKKOR Z 24-200mm f/4-6.3 VR is designed to take full advantage of the Z mount system's impressive light-gathering capability, so photos and videos are sharp, clear and evenly illuminated throughout the entire frame.
Travel light without missing a shot.
At just 570 g, the compact NIKKOR Z 24-200mm f/4-6.3 VR is the perfect grab and go lens for all-day versatility and convenience. From stunning wide landscapes to close-ups of the animals that inhabit them, every shot is captured with staggering resolution, impressive clarity and minimal distortion.
Even more reach with DX crop mode.
The already impressive 200mm reach of the NIKKOR Z 24-200mm f/4-6.3 VR can be effectively extended to an amazing 300mm when used on a DX camera like the Z 50 or by setting your FX camera to DX crop mode.
Outstanding optics for true to life images.
The NIKKOR Z 24-200mm f/4-6.3 VR is loaded with advanced Nikon lens technologies to capture photos and videos just as you see them with minimal distortion and exceptional clarity.
Smooth, fast and quiet autofocus.
Powered by an ultra-quiet stepping motor and enhanced by the additional light gathered by the Z Mount, focusing is fast, silent and accurate. Great for stills; even better for video.
Rock steady VR.
With up to 5.0 stops of built-in optical Vibration Reduction (VR), impeccably sharp handheld photos and videos are no problem, even in low light. Paired with the 5 Axis In-Body VR (IBIS) of Full Frame Z Series cameras, image stabilization is further enhanced, and with the DX format Z 50, the NIKKOR Z 24-200mm f/4-6.3 VR provides 2 Axis optical image stabilization.
Beautifully reproduced night scenes.
Point light sources like stars or lights in a cityscape have a tendency to "smear" in dark scenes, requiring time-consuming post-processing to correct. The NIKKOR Z 24-200mm f/4-6.3 VR automatically combats this anomaly with faithful point light reproduction, accurately capturing fine details around small light sources throughout the entire frame.
Video versatility.
With its vast zoom range, the NIKKOR Z 24-200mm f/4-6.3 VR is an extremely versatile lens for video enthusiasts. Autofocusing and subject tracking are smooth and silent with virtually no focus breathing. The customizable, clickless control ring offers quick and quiet access to your most used camera settings. Plus, it accepts 67mm filters such as neutral density filters for greater creative exposure control.
Dust and drip resistant.
Extensively sealed to keep dust and moisture out, especially around all moving parts of the lens barrel, for worry-free durability.
Customizable control ring.
The control ring can be used for quiet aperture control (great for iris transitions during video recording or situations where complete silence is critical), exposure compensation or ISO adjustments.
Next-generation Z design and optics.
Designed and optimized to take full advantage of the Z system's larger mount, Z lenses gather substantially more light, providing even illumination and improved sharpness from the center of the frame to the far edges. Autofocusing is fast and quiet. Video recording is clean and smooth with highly minimized focus breathing and reduced wobbling. Intuitive on-lens controls can be customized to your individual shooting style and so much more. Z lenses are designed with a sense of consistency that combines reliability and beauty with next-dimension optical performance for complete freedom in image creation.
Technology
ARNEO Coat
An anti-reflective coating developed by Nikon and used in conjunction with Nano Crystal Coat to further reduce ghost and flare effects caused by incident light entering the lens vertically. This allows for the outstandingly clear capture of images even when a light source is located within the frame.
Fluorine Coat
Photographers need gear that can withstand the elements. Nikon's fluorine coat effectively repels dust, water droplets, grease or dirt, ensuring easy removal even when they adhere to the lens surface. Nikon's fluorine coat endures a high frequency of lens surface wiping and its anti-reflective effect also contributes to the capture of clear images.
