LCD attachment on the Nikon Z5 II

The LCD screen on the Nikon Z5 II is flexibly attached to the body. In particular, the LCD is hinged on the side and can be flipped out for odd-angle shots in both portrait and landscape orientation. Also, this fully articulated, swivel type of LCD attachment is often appreciated by videographers for its flexibility. Moreover, v-loggers like the design because the screen can be turned to be front-facing.

In terms of size and resolution, the rear LCD of the Nikon Z5 II measures 3.2 inches and offers a resolution of 2,100,000 dots. The panel is touch sensitive.

One feature that differentiates the Z5 II from many older cameras is in-body image stabilization (IBIS). The Z5 II reduces the risk of handshake-induced blur with all attached lenses, while cameras without IBIS have to rely on optical image stabilization in OIS-equipped lenses to achieve the same effect.
