The Nikon Z5 II is the successor to the Nikon Z5, which was released five years previously as a cheaper entry to Nikon's full-frame mirrorless ecosystem compared to Nikon's other full-frame cameras of the day, the Nikon Z6 and Z7.
While the original Z5's 24.3MP sensor almost matched the 24.5MP of the Z6, it was underpowered compared to that camera in many ways, with a much slower burst rate, underwhelming video and inferior rear LCD display. A lot has changed since then, however, and the Nikon Z5 II is proof of that.
