On Tuesday the professional SLR camera was presented at the CES 2017 in Las Vegas – in March 2017 the full-format DSLR is to come onto the market. After the rumors, we will summarize all the innovations and technical facts about the Nikon D4.
Upgrade for the autofocus
In the D5 Nikon integrates the new AF system Multi-CAM 20K with TTL phase detection. It offers a total of 153 measurement fields and 99 cross sensors. 55 auto-focus points can now be selected manually. The AF sensitivity is up to -4 LW (ISO 100).
Support for 4K video
Enhanced, the Nikon D5 also shows at the serial screen speed. The DSLR now provides up to 12 frames per second for exposure metering and AF tracking, or 14 frames per second with a high-fledged mirror. The buffer memory is sufficient for 200 RAW images and thus allows long recording series. A new exposure measurement sensor with 180,000 RGB pixels is used for motor detection.
Proven basic equipment
In terms of sensor technology, the Nikon D5 is based on a full-size CMOS (35.9 mm x 23.9 mm) with a resolution of 20.8 megapixels - with the Nikon D4s (test) it was still 16.2 megapixels. In conjunction with the new image processing engine Expeed 5, Nikon promises improved image quality and color gradation. Nikon has also saved on the light sensitivity - this is enough for the D5 from ISO 100 to ISO 102,400 and can be extended to "Hi 5" mode to an extreme ISO 3.280.000

The MOV format is used with H.264 compression.
