Re: 2026 Nikon Speculation Thread. What’s the next big thing?
NIKON must do a *much* better job on their menus. So, yes, start with a major Z9 firmware update.
Following is just one example of many: This morning I needed to quickly switch from pre-release to normal shooting with just one button press (with my Z8). Nope. Can’t do that. Am I missing something? If so, please tell me how to do this.
The very helpful folks at NikonUsa in Philly told me that Menu banks won't do that. I converse with NikonUsa often. I greatly appreciate their excellent customer phone support, and I often thank them for that support. So…my issue is not with NikonUsa; it is with the parent corporation.
Speaking of pre-release, isn't it about time they created pre-release with RAW?! How long have we asked for this ?
Nikon menus are much too complex and slow to use. I've been with them exclusively since 1984 and this is my only complaint along the way. Fix your menus Nikon!
