If they are going to put the same sensor as the Z9 in the Z8 with the same FPS and other features, I can't see them using the same battery as the Z6/Z7's.   I would *THINK* they would develop a ...

I've been shooting the Z9 for over a year now and tons and tons of wildlife shooting.  Yes there are scenarios I've encountered whereby the Z9 will not focus dead on a target; however I challenge ...

You just can't get enough light!! I wish I had a 100-400 F/2.8, but alas that is Nirvana.  You also can't have enough reach, for wildlife.  So ideally, 800 F/2.8 would also be Nirvana.  I used the ...

Maybe the 24-120 as well even though its not a 2.8

After using the Z9 extensively for BIF, I can tell you the camera tracks just fine. It will occasionally fail to focus on distant targets against a white or blue sky, but I have found in my ...

My point is; Creatives post their Z9 photos weekly in threads like the one I sent you.  Hover over the photos to show the Exif information showing camera and lens used.

I don't think this discussion is a matter of IQ, I think its a matter of composition.  To make shooting wildlife compelling and interesting, one needs to fill the frame with the subject at hand.  ...

I found the 200-500 to be very slow focusing with the Z9 and FTZ.  So much so, I got rid of it and used the 500 PF and the 100-400 exclusively.  I would bet dollars to donuts, the 200-500 cannot ...

I love my 500 PF, but its still an F mount and requires a separate TC and FTZ adapter.  Nikon released the 400mm, 600mm, and the 800mm, but the 500mm 5.6 can be the sweet spot for most wildlife ...

Congratulations! Very happy reassuring for your favorable outcome.

Thanks for posting this Michael.  Is there a list of software supporting HE* anywhere? I have the Topaz suite and also the Luminar tools.  Neither of which support HE*.

Matt Irwin does an excellent review / comparison of all in this range https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TRDxXDYjrPo&t=81s

These photos exemplify that edict.  Just go out and shoot and don't worry about corner sharpness.

Very frustrating indeed.  Its always a crap shoot with such high tech devices.  I know its no consolation, but I've had and have abused my Z9 since January and it has been rock solid.  All the ...

I see it plain as day and this would annoy the crap out of me.  I would contact either NPS or Nikon support and report this as an issue and ask for a solution or at least log a case and ask for a ...

Excellent shots...Love the train tracks photo.  I get more and more impressed with that Z50 each day.

I personally wouldn't regress back into the F mount platform considering the amazing growing selection of Z lenses.   I added a Z62 to my Z9 and its a great pairing if you don't need the pixels of ...

This has got to be frustrating indeed. I would turn lemons to lemonade and replace it with another long PRIME depending on your budget. You already have the 100-400, so you have the FL covered. ...
