p.107 #1 · Z9 and Z8 ! : A thread for Z9/Z8 images and *discussion*


My first wildlife/bird shot with my trial new Z9. It was real hot (87 degrees F) and humid today and very bright sun all of which doesn't make for the best conditions (atmospherics). But got one anyway. I'm still learning the in's and out's of this focus system. The Sony is more of an "automatic" shooter as compared to the likes of a Z9/Z8, but one is to have more control which isn't a bad thing. Loving that 100-400 as it's so well balanced and sharp too.

A little help please with lens focus distance set and recall for the Z8. On the 100-400 I set LN to set and LN2 to recall. I did a test to see if it works. However I no longer can get minimum focus distance with the lens. The manual says to detach the lens to reset it. I have three times and even put on a different lens. The 100-400 minimum distance now is set to the distance I set to test it which was about 15 feet. What am I missing? Thanks.


You haven't by any chance changed the limiter switch position?

Thanks. Yes I did. It’s a switch I never use.
