Nikon 1 J5
The Nikon J5 is a compact yet capable mirrorless interchangeable lens camera with a 1" format BSI (Back Side Illuminated) sensor and the highest resolution of any Nikon 1 series camera ever made. The J5 is a really great little travel camera with a solidly useful feature set, very useable ergonomics, and well thought out controls. Even though it's a small handy take anywhere camera, the J5 packs big speed: the camera features a super responsive hybrid AF system that covers a very large area and allows continuous AF while shooting at up to 20 frames per second (at full resolution no less!).
Originally introduced in 2015, the J5 replaces the earlier Nikon 1 J4 from the prior year. Notable upgrades beyond extra pixels include: a screen that tilts 180 degrees up to make selfies and group portraits easier, a protruding grip with a textured surface so it's easier to hang on to, and expanded external controls that sophisticated operators want like dual control dials and a PASM mode dial.

1 Nikkor 10-30mm f/3.5-5.6 VR PD-ZOOM
The 1 NIKKOR VR 10-30mm f/3.5-5.6 PD is a superbly portable 27-81mm equivalent lens that takes great images. The 10-30mm PD is noticeably shorter and more compact than Nikon's previous 10-30mm model thanks in part to simplified external controls. The quiet PD (Power-Drive) Zoom arrangement not only saves space but it also allows the lens to smoothly zoom while shooting video. Other convenient features include a motorized internal focus system and a built-in lens cover.
