Interesting, thanks for the heads up. The Z9 has 1.11 stops less DR at ISO 400 compared to Z7.



[...]ISO400 is clearly an abnormality and one ISO to avoid with the Z9.[...]

Agreed.

I use ISO 64 whenever possible, but ISO 400 is my next most used setting when constant breeze causes foliage to move. I’m not going to take a -1.11 stop hit in DR when my Z9 arrives so I guess I will move to ISO 503.

Nikon set the dual gain at ISO 503 on the Z9, compared to ISO 400 on the Z7, that’s why we see the 1.11 stop difference at 400.
