Nikon Asia is hosting a session now with 6 photographers.
One person said that Z9 turned on immediately and she could start tracking bird with 3D tracking
in about 1 second flat after hitting the power button.
A Singaporean photographer said that in auto subject focus, Z9 was tracking bicycle at long distance but switched to rider focusing on helmet and visor at closer distance. But Nikon Asia did say that best way to track helmet is just to use 3D tracking.
I asked about noise level whether it is comparable to Z7 ii, Z6ii or D6. Nikon Asia said it is better than Z7 ii I guess with base iso of 64, it is hard to expect it to be better than Z6ii or D6 .ง But jpg output at iso 16000-25000 was surprisingly good but they did not show raw file though.
Shooting wildlife silhouette against sunset, AF will pick up animal face/head.
One photographer mentioned he shot 2700 shots in one session and battery was only half empty but I guess with high FPS shooting, you tend to get loads of photos anyhow.
In AF-C mode, focus point does not stay red the whole time like Z6/Z7 and will turn green to confirm focus.
Nikon Asia recommends Prograde Cobalt CFExpress card.
at 1.37H, there is a short video clip for bird photography and a few short EVF captured video for bif.
PS 1.39.23 hornbill shot, you can see large grey circle in the middle of the frame. I was told that this is a new
metering mode where the camera assume the object in the circle is the main subject and outside the circle is the background.
Suppose to work very well in metering bright background to prevent hilight overblown and still keep the subject better lit than usual metering mode.
PSS a)from evening local Q&A f/u session, from switching power on, camera is ready to take photos in 0.4s.
b) a whole day shooting at motorbike race, > 10,000 shots, still 40% battery left.
c) warm display color turn LCD screen black and orange/red for night time shooting where you don't want light from lcd to interfere with whatever.
d) motorcycle if you select vehicle, it will focus on the motorcycle, if select face detection, it iwll focus on helmet (an EVF captured video was shown).
e) motorcycle coming directly toward the camera at 250 km/hr was no problem
f) at almost 7pm after sunset, tracking a dog running toward camera at iso12800 was no problem. I think it was with 50/1.2 but he did not say at what SS.
g) TTL flash with face detection, TTL is measured at detected face only.
h) touch screen has glove mode.
