Imaging is forecast to hit ¥180 billion ($1.56B) and, with no impairment losses, contributing to profit.

Is Nikon Z5 worth buying?

The Nikon Z5 is a great little camera. I prefer its controls and ergonomics to those of the Z6 II and Z7 II, and its image quality is the same (megapixels are only for marketing purposes 97% of the time). So long as you’re not shooting sports or action, this is Nikon’s best mirrorless camera.

It will not be able to accommodate a medium format sensor, but perhaps a slightly larger sensor that will provide better low-light performance or increased resolution could be an option. In short, the Nikon Z mount is clearly superior to the Nikon F in a number of ways.

Why is the Nikon Z mount so big? The larger diameter of the Z Mount also allows Nikon to produce lenses with much wider apertures. Atsushi demonstrates how a larger lens mount helps with this, and explains that Nikon could have gone even larger, but it would have resulted in a larger camera.

What can I expect from my Nikon 2022?

What we think: We expect Nikon to keep building on the Z system for the foreseeable future, adding more full-frame mirrorless lenses to complement the Nikon Z6 II, Nikon Z7 II and of course the Z9 – along with new, smaller optics like the Nikkor Z DX 16-50mm f/3.5-6.3 VR (opens in new tab) and the Nikon pancake primes

Do you need a DSLR in 2022? With that in mind, if portability and the option to preview your photos are what you’re after, then you should buy a mirrorless camera in 2022. But if long battery life and the ability to see precisely what the camera sees are more important to you, then 2022 is still the year of the DSLR.

Will DSLRs become obsolete? According to Canon’s Chairman and CEO Fujio Mitarai, their next flagship SLR camera will be the last. They’ve even stopped production on new EF lenses. While they’ll consider making consumer-level DSLR cameras in the near future, Canon’s long-term plan is to focus on the mirrorless format.

Nikon USA also still lists the camera as being available. However, it is quite telling that no successor has been announced for the D500.

Is Nikon going broke?

Bankrupt no, but the rate of innovation will slow as they neither have scale nor growth to fund any big development. Expect the transition to Mirrorless to continue as that is cost efficient and cheaper, expect the D6 and iterations D850 and maybe a D750 to come with less and less new innovation.

Can you use a DX lens on a Z5? IOW, normal crop factor applies because the Z50 is a crop sensor camera. Conversely you can use a DX lens on a full frame mirrorless camera. So using one of your DX F mount lenses on a Z5 (or Z6 or Z7) via the FTZ adapter works fine but the camera by default will go into automatic DX crop mode.
