Let’s have a look

z9 has lower res viewfinder

z9 has lower resolution rear screen

z9 doesn’t have eye focus

z9 doesn’t have advanced hot shoe

z9 has no mechanical shutter

z9 doesn’t have incremental adjustment of shutter to eliminate flicker

z9 is slower frames per second

the z9 is more a r5 competitor

i will stick with the r3 order I have placed to go with the r5’s

don’t get me wrong I love Nikon and I hope the camera is a big success, I have a d850 and d6 and various lenses but they don’t get a lot of use alongside my canon kit.

let’s wait to see the price of the new Nikon 400 with built on 1.4x tc, I will predict £14000 here in the Uk

Even if R5 can do 95% of what Z9 can do with time-limits, there's some major differences:

- 1/270 read-out speed which basically eliminates rolling shutter (and the need for MS)

- Blackout free shooting

- 2 hours of 8K30P/ 4K oversampled from 8K

On the other hand I'm quite surprised Z9 only does 20fps raw. It seems low for a flagship like this. The buffer seems to be 1000+.
