The Nikon Z9 is the mirrorless high-performance all-rounder in the Z camera series and is equipped with a 45.7 megapixel resolution 35mm format sensor (FX format). The multi-layer stacked CMOS sensor is equipped with a 5-axis stabilizer that can compensate for up to 6 EV stops with compatible lenses. The Nikon Z9 now has an extremely fast Expeed 7 processor, which according to Nikon is 12 times faster than the two processors in the Nikon Z7 II.

Excellent autofocus and 3D tracking

The 493 AF point system includes 405 automatic AF points – five times more than the Z 7II, and 10 AF point modes to provide the optimal AF setting for any task. Deep learning AI enables the most advanced simultaneous detection of up to nine different subject types. Combined with 3D tracking, a new addition to Nikon’s range of mirrorless cameras, every important moment is captured. Whether people and their identifying features, animals or vehicles – the Z9 recognizes the subjects and reacts immediately to changes in position, orientation and speed.

Groundbreaking video features

The Z9’s incredible imaging performance allows photographers to capture exquisite 8K 24p to 60p and 4K 24p to 120p movies as well as time-lapse movies in-camera. 8K 30p footage can be recorded for around 125 minutes at a time – the longest recording time among mirrorless cameras. There is also compatibility with the ProRes 422 HQ recording format, which reliably meets the diverse requirements of video production. An upcoming firmware update will enable RAW 8K movies to be recorded at a smooth 60p. Constant AF/AE tracking and Eye AF support filming, while Nikon’s N-RAW format keeps file sizes manageable.

Powerful speed

Shoot more than 1000 images in high-resolution RAW at 20fps in one burst. Shooting at up to 120 frames per second at approximately 11 MP in JPEG normal image quality with full AF/AE capability in C+ mode is also possible. The world’s fastest sensor sampling rate virtually eliminates rolling shutter distortion, so the mechanical shutter has been removed. Exposure times of up to 1/32000 s, combined with the camera’s ability to capture images at ISO 64, allow you to work with an open aperture for perfect exposure of the subject, even in extremely bright light.

Constant visibility, in real time

The Z9 is equipped with the brightest* (3000 nit) electronic viewfinder display and, thanks to dual-stream technology, offers continuous shooting without phases of black at any time, so photographers never miss a moment. The Z9’s display offers a truly continuous real-time display, meaning movements of the subject or the smallest changes in the scene being photographed are continuously displayed to the photographer.

Ergonomics and stability

Another first for Nikon, the Z9 is equipped with a vertically and horizontally tiltable 4-axis monitor, allowing photographers to adapt to the moment with fast, flexible framing. The ergonomics of the camera, such as the arrangement of the buttons, were developed and improved together with professional photographers. The Z9’s robustness goes beyond that of the D6 and ensures that users can rely on their tool even under harsh conditions. The AF mode button allows you to intuitively switch the AF mode and AF point control while shooting. The top and rear LCD displays and buttons light up when the main switch is pressed to make it easier to change settings in the dark.
