Hey guys,
As many of you will know from my Instagram my Z9 landed at my door a few weeks back and so in this video I want to talk all about my first impressions of using the camera as a wildlife photographer out in the field! I've had the camera out with me almost daily, testing it out on some local subjects, trialling the AF, speed and whole shooting experience and so thoughts I'd share some initial impressions. This isn't a full on review - I won't do one of those till I've used the camera fully for many months, but just my early thoughts as a professional wildlife photographer.
In this video I'll talk you though, the design and feel, AF and how its working, Buffer and more, plus show some early examples. As always with these things I know there will be loads of questions so feel free to drop them below and I'll do my best to answer them all!
As always guys I know loads of you watch these videos and aren't subbed, so if your not please hit that SUBSCRIBE button to help me out and keep up with the latest videos - I'll be sharing more on the Z9 from the field as I shoot and experiment!
I won't lie I'm loving the Z9 so far, it's blazing fast, the mix of high resolution and FPS is awesome, all packaged in arguably the best feeling Pro Nikon body I've ever used...And I've used a few! I really can't wait for the next few years this this camera, shooting stills and video out on location!
