Notes on 34 values — test conditions and caveats
  1. 1Ricoh GR IV, Launch price: Launch MSRP per the review; Ricoh's US store currently lists $1,599.95.
  2. 2Panasonic LUMIX S1II, High resolution pixel-shift mode: The full 96MP composite needs a tripod; handheld shooting caps at 48MP.
  3. 3Nikon Z6III, High resolution pixel-shift mode: Pixel-shift frames are merged on a computer in NX Studio, not in the camera.
  4. 4Nikon Z5IIC, Native ISO maximum: Expanded settings reach ISO 204800 (Hi 1.7); 64000 is the highest standard/native value.
  5. 5Nikon Z5IIC, In-body image stabilization: CIPA 2024 standard: up to 7.5 stops at the frame center, 6.0 stops at the periphery.
  6. 6Nikon Z6III, In-body image stabilization: CIPA figure measured with the non-VR NIKKOR Z 24-120mm f/4 S at 120mm.
  7. 7Ricoh GR IV, In-body image stabilization: Ricoh's 6.0-stop rating applies at frame centre; periphery is rated 4.0 stops (CIPA 2024).
  8. 8Panasonic LUMIX S1II, Sensor readout speed: Measured by DPReview using the electronic shutter in 14-bit stills mode.
  9. 9Ricoh GR IV, Sensor type: The sensor is a back-illuminated (BSI) CMOS type; mapped to 'cmos' as no BSI option is listed.
  10. 10Nikon Z5IIC, Aspect ratios: Native FX (36 x 24) stills are 3:2; 1:1 and 16:9 are selectable in-camera image areas.
  11. 11Ricoh GR IV, Aspect ratios: 3:2 is native to the 23.3 x 15.5 mm sensor; 4:3, 1:1 and 16:9 are in-camera crop modes.
  12. 12Nikon Z5IIC, Continuous shooting (mechanical): Spec table: extended burst is approx. 14 fps (15 fps with silent mode); rates apply to non-RAW quality.
  13. 13Ricoh GR IV, Continuous shooting (mechanical): The review cites 4 fps continuous without specifying shutter type.
  14. 14Nikon Z5IIC, Continuous shooting (electronic): C30 is fixed at JPEG [L]/NORMAL; Nikon advises use of a recommended card.
  15. 15Nikon Z6III, Continuous shooting (electronic): 60 fps is full-resolution JPEG only; Raw bursts top out at 20 fps, and 120 fps uses a DX crop.
  16. 16Nikon Z5IIC, Max mechanical shutter speed: The 1/8000 s figure is the overall shutter-speed range; the fastest mechanical speed is 1/4000 s.
  17. 17Ricoh GR IV, Max mechanical shutter speed: 1/4000 s requires F5.6 or a smaller aperture; at F2.8 the limit is 1/2500 s.
  18. 18Nikon Z5IIC, Pre-burst capture duration: In High-Speed Frame Capture +, Pre-Release Capture is fixed at JPEG [L] NORMAL.
  19. 19Nikon Z6III, Pre-burst capture duration: Pre-Release Capture records JPEG only.
  20. 20Ricoh GR IV, AF subject detection: Only face/eye detection is offered; no animal or vehicle subject recognition is listed.
  21. 21Nikon Z5IIC, 4K max frame rate: 4K/60p is recorded in a DX (APS-C) crop.
  22. 22Panasonic LUMIX S1II, 4K max frame rate: Maximum 120 fps in 4K requires recording in MOV format at a 24.00Hz system frequency.
  23. 23Nikon Z5IIC, 4K max frame rate (full width): 4K/60p uses a DX (APS-C) crop, so full-width 4K recording tops out at 30p.
  24. 24Panasonic LUMIX S1II, 4K max frame rate (full width): 4K at 120fps requires an approximate 1.24x sensor crop; 60fps is the fastest at full sensor width.
  25. 25Nikon Z6III, Video dynamic range (log): Nikon states "13+ stops" for N-Log in H.265 10-bit at ISO 800.
  26. 26Nikon Z5IIC, Battery life: Approx. 390 shots per charge with [Energy saving (photo mode)] set to ON.
  27. 27Ricoh GR IV, Battery life: CIPA-rated at 23°C with a fully charged DB-120 battery.
  28. 28Ricoh GR IV, Memory card slots: Single microSD slot, plus 53 GB internal memory that cannot record to both at once.
  29. 29Nikon Z5IIC, Weather sealing: Complete dust- and drip-resistant performance is not guaranteed in all situations or conditions.
  30. 30Nikon Z5IIC, Weight: 620 g is with battery and memory card; the body alone weighs approx. 538 g.
  31. 31Nikon Z6III, USB charging & power delivery: In-camera charging and USB power need a USB-PD source such as Nikon's EH-8P.
  32. 32Ricoh GR IV, USB charging & power delivery: Battery charges and camera draws power in-body over USB-C; fast charging needs a USB-PD adapter.
  33. 33Nikon Z5IIC, Headphone port: Shared 3.5 mm output doubles as remote release; set its function to headphones for monitoring.
  34. 34Ricoh GR IV, HDMI port type: Video output is DisplayPort over USB-C; there is no HDMI connector.
