FREE/$897
We just spotted a deal at B&H that gets you Nikon’s Z 5 full-frame mirrorless camera body, bundled with a few basic accessories, for $896.95 shipped. Originally priced at $1,400, this entry-level camera has more recently been selling for around $1,147. That’s already a great price for a full-frame compared to the newer cameras out there, but dropping below $900 makes it a much more compelling option for anyone who was considering an APS-C body purely to keep costs down. Amazon is also matching the $897 price as part of its early Prime Day deals, but that listing does not include the SanDisk 64GB SD card or camera bag included with the B&H bundle. Head below for more details.
The Z 5 may not be the newest full-frame camera in Nikon’s lineup now that the Z 5 II is here, but it’s still worth considering, especially at its discounted price today. You are getting a 24.3MP full-frame sensor, in-body image stabilization, dual SD card slots, a solid electronic viewfinder, and access to Nikon’s growing Z-mount lens system. It remains a capable option over many other APS-C models in this price range for travel, portraits, landscapes, and everyday photography, where its image quality matters far more than some other features. The newer Z 5 II brings meaningful upgrades in speed, subject detection, and video, but the original Z 5 still covers the basics well and leaves more room in the budget for a better lens for someone stepping into full-frame photography.
