You really don't need 4k to record a single presenter, so the cropping is not really a problem in the auto-tracking mode. 4k is only useful in high information density shots, like landscapes or...

Nobody really cares about you. You are only as relevant as what you provide to others - the 'market'.

Every jack hole thinks they're the only thing that matters. But it's the market that gets to...

I wonder if Nikon will come out with a drone with a Z-mount camera, or a gimbal.

What the Z9 needs is an electronic variable ND filter, and wireless mic interface built in. That would reduce a lot...

Glad Nikon is focusing on video. The still photography market is dead. No one even posts still photos on Instagram anymore. It's all video.

Literally several billion people on social media posting...

I have no interest in a stills-only camera, so Nikon better make sure they have video.

I bet you see Nikon anamorphic lenses for the Z mount within 5 years, with full auto focus and power zoom.

The current line of Z lenses are already perfect for non-anamorphic video. They could use...

Great read. The D3 and the D3x were my first full frame cameras. Amazing advancement in ISO causing previously impossible images to now be captured.

But I don't share the feelings about the Z9. I...

How completely untalented does Amazon have to be in order to delete a site with millions of active users?

Like, all you have to do is leave it on, turn off commenting, and have one guy maintain it...

Wow. Sorry to hear that. Hope things work out in the end for every team member.

Do we know if these are officially supported by Nikon?

Basically the best lens lineup in the industry. RIP Sony and Canon.

Can we just get rid of stills camera then, since there's no market for it?

At this point all cameras should be video as well.

Readout is just one part of the sensor activity during a shot. There's also electron well recharge time, which happens during the dark time.

Simultaneous photo and video is never gonna happen since video shoots at slower shutter speed to add motion blur, while photography doesn't. And then you have the ND-filter problem... so a camera...

For the next version of Z9:
240fps (4k or 8k raw gonna need to upgrade CFExpress to PCIExpress 5+)
Shutter angle control
built-in variable ND filter
Wireless microphone support built in
External...

No. Gimbals aren't used for photography. Only video.

So far ALL of the Nikon S-line lenses have been incredible. I only wish they made them with gears for Cinema.

A better option for smart cameras would be to add a third position to "Photo/Video" mode where it is now "Photo/Video/Phone" mode and when in phone mode, it becomes an Android phone with a grid of...

I'm wondering if they're going to make actual power zoom lenses available to match the zoom control here. I know they have one coming for DX, but that's only for small vloggers, not the Z9 system....

RIP Sony
