@@ThePinoyAggie Nikon USA has the worst online store. They have never figured out on how to do Apple Pay well. Even charging on AE doesn't work for them. I called AE and they told me that they did not reject any charge from Nikon. They cancelled my orders twice due to error on their end. I have better luck on using Amazon for payment with the Nikon web store. Now, I am keeping my fingers crossed for getting Z9 so that I can use it in next Jan. Nikon on-line store needs to keep up with today's world since their online store is failing the customers.

Not going to lie, watching this was very satisfying. For years I've felt like Nikon is leaving their customers in the desert compared to Canon and Sony, but the results you're getting now finally look like good news. I'm very much looking forward to getting a Z9 loaner in my hands (in like 10 months or so I'm guessing). If it indeed adapts my f-mount lenses well , I can just buy one instead of selling my glass and looking for Sony replacements. Not that I need the framerate or 8k video, but I'm not waiting another two years or so for a D850-like Z8.

@@Spock105 Well, that's unfortunate for you but honestly not really a problem that Nikon is likely to address, now or ever, I think. I'll hazard a guess and say that the vast, vast majority of people do not use those old lenses anymore, except for fun shoots where manual focus is good enough, and the niche group of people who do aren't worth the R&D effort. Nikon isn't swimming in money, so assigning priority to tasks according to how pressing they are makes perfect sense.

Partly motivated by this video, I've just done a shoot in the same alleyways that you used in Kwun Tong. My Nikon D7100 with D50 lens was on ISO auto just like yours but unfortunately my ISO readings went much higher than yours and the resulting noise was much greater than I expected! (no speedlight). My Nikon D7500 with Tokina 11-16 for a wide background view and with speedlight only did a bit better. Though I was there in overcast weather near the end of the day so I must have had even less light than you. But even so, out of the many pics I took, after post processing some turned out very nicely as just like you I was also lucky to have an excellent model!

Great video Matt. I use a D500 with 500pf for wildlife (normally in low light conditions) I would love to see if the Z9 could handle this .

If i go this route of getting a Z9 i'll be using Nikon Glass. Matt this was indeed a welcome video! It's a lot of food for thought. Thanks again.

Hello Matt thank you for the great videos Is that true that Z9 doesn’t have an option for 5:4 aspect ratio? This was my favorite output ratio on my D850 and most used one.

I had the 24-70mm f2.8 g lens the first edition and whilst it was sharp on the z bodies with the adaptor it was found lacking in low light where it would chatter and hunt to lock focus especially in continuous autofocus. it might just have been my copy but I updated it to the z 24-70 f2.8 and no such problems.

Hi Matt, I have preordered a Z9 plus adapter…amongst other things I like wildlife photography and have an f mount 200-500 f5.6 plus a 500 PF f5.6 ( I have been trying to find a good 600 f4 but they are very scarce in the UK.) My question is if I use my long lenses with either my D5..D850…D500 they focus well on their own but add a 1.4 converter things slow down and are less accurate. I am hoping the Z9 will improve this issue considerably, what is your view?….also have you used the Z9 in low light conditions and how does it perform??….love your posts they are really informative and easy to understand keep up the great work, thank you

Hey Mat, Great vid, looks promising for 3rd party lenses.Can you try some sigma primes and maybe 150-600 sport? Also with no mechanical shutter, is it possible to still do front or back curtain shutter? Cheers, Andy

Nicely done. I’m not going to get a Z9 because I’m not a professional and it would be a bit big for a day to day camera. Sure do like the performance even with adapted lenses. Might be nice to show us same lens on a Z6ii and Z9, since i do own the Z6ii.

Fabulous video. Please do test the performance of Z9 with FTZ II on 70-200mm f 2.8 VRII, 300mm f2.8 VRII and 500mm f4 VR G lenses, if possible. That will be very useful.

Hi Matt I have a question about DOF preview on the z9. On the z7 the dof on the photo mode stops at f5.6, and you have to map a button to see the dof at higher aperatures. In video mode the dof works fine on the z7. I have not found any details in any reviews

Mister Granger i have a question. I don't know how this works but i wonder when you use an FTZ adapter on your Nikon camera and you put a F1.8 lens on it. would it still work as a 1.8 lens ? i wonder because 1 as far as i know with a teleconverter it will change right ? and 2 because the lens will be further away from the camera sensor plus you change the mount size ? sorry for my mediocre English but i hope you understand what i mean

Simple question Matt, can you see the virtual horizon in the EVF ?. I have this feature in my D850 and it comes in handy yet it isn't an available feature in my D5.
