Nikon Z 9 Body Only Full Frame Mirrorless Camera

The Technical Details Behind The Nikon Z 9 Camera

The Nikon Z 9's powerful AF is the result of three technologies: an unprecedented AF calculation speed of 120 cycles per second, intelligent subject detection developed using deep learning, and rapid, constant communication of AF information between the lens and camera body via the Z mount. These technologies combine to perform a higher level of AF tracking performance for erratically moving subjects, even during high-speed continuous shooting. The AF algorithm is also tuned to nail moving subjects with confidence in low-light situations. Furthermore, the Z 9's AF being controlled independently from live-view exposure enables powerful AF even in backlit situations.

Detecting world's largest range of 9 different subject types - for stills and videos

In order to achieve reliable AF for a variety of subjects, the Nikon Z 9 employs an advanced algorithm developed using deep-learning technology and detects the world's largest range of 9 subject types. With human subjects, the camera can detect and focus on a person's eye even if it is small in the frame, which helps when cropping the image. It can even focus on the eye through goggles or sunglasses, or if upside down. In a dynamic situation such as where a gymnast performs a somersault during a floor exercise and the AF loses the face, detection will automatically shift to the head or upper body, maintaining focus on the subject. For wildlife photographers and photo enthusiasts, it also detects birds, motorcycles, bicycles, cars, and airplanes, as well as cats and dogs, allowing you to leave focusing on the camera while you concentrate on your image composition.

Persistent tracking lets you focus on the best moments - 3D-tracking

3D-tracking has long been praised for its tracking performance with Nikon D-SLRs, and the Nikon Z 9 brings this feature to the Z series for the first time. Coupled with subject detection developed using deep learning, it continues tracking a subject such as a racing car that approaches close and then moves away quickly, or a swiftly moving athlete.

Maintain focus on a subject exactly where you want - Dynamic-area AF

Many professional sports photographers decide exactly where in the frame they want to achieve focus before going into a scene and maintain it on a subject with dynamic-area AF. Taking advantage of the vast AF coverage, the Z 9 brings new advances by offering three dynamic-area AF modes: (S) with a focusing area equivalent to that of the D6, (M) with an area as big as that of the Z 7II, and (L) with an even larger focusing area. Effective use of these depending on the situation helps nail decisive moments in scenes such as soccer and basketball.

New stacked CMOS sensor achieves world's most minimal rolling-shutter distortion

The Z 9 incorporates Nikon's unique stacked CMOS sensor featuring 45.7 effective megapixels, which enables approx. 12x faster readout compared to the Z 7II. The world's fastest scanning speed makes it possible to minimize rolling-shutter distortion. It realizes a design without the need for a mechanical shutter, enabling silent release at any time and for a vast number of shots without worrying about shutter wear.

Powerful EXPEED 7 for high-speed, peak performance

The core of a mirrorless camera's performance is its image processing engine. The new EXPEED 7 image-processing engine is Nikon's most powerful yet, taking full advantage of the stacked CMOS sensor's potential and approx. 10x faster processing speed compared to the Z 7II to raise performance to a whole new level across the board. What is unique about this engine is that by processing dual-streamed data from the image sensor separately, it realizes the Real-Live Viewfinder, while also achieving high-performance AF, 8K in-camera video recording, 4K/120p, and more advanced features.

Superb view under harsh light - the world's brightest Quad-VGA panel supporting 3000 cd/m2

Photographers need to shoot even in very bright conditions and sometimes face difficulties in confirming the subject through electronic viewfinders. That's why the Z 9 incorporates a new Quad-VGA panel, in which brightness can be manually raised up to 3000cd/m2. This allows you to see your subjects through the viewfinder more clearly, even if you are shooting on a beach in summer or snowfield in winter. What's more, the Z 9's EVF offers a smaller display size option for those wearing glasses to be able to view the whole frame.

High-Speed Frame Capture+ at up to 120 fps - revealing moments that last for less than 1/100 second

When you want to capture the exact moment such as a high diver's fingertips hitting the water or a tennis ball momentarily deformed by the impact of the racket, the Z 9 offers a new High-Speed Frame Capture+ with AF/AE tracking. Rotating the release mode dial to the quick release-mode selection and selecting C120, you can take approx. 11-megapixel still images at 120 fps. This helps press coverage by revealing amazing, previously invisible moments that would otherwise be lost between the frames. With C30, you can shoot approx. 45-megapixel images at 30 fps.

Capture long sequences from start to finish - high-speed continuous shooting at 20 fps for more than 1000 frames

To capture the decisive moment, sometimes you need the whole story. Thanks to CFexpress Type B's fast writing speed, the Z 9 allows you to keep shooting more than 1000 frames at approx. 20 fps in JPEG (L) fine and High Efficiency RAW. With remarkable AF performance, you can continue shooting figure skaters or rhythmic gymnasts from beginning to end.

Silent mode, ready for a variety of situations

Featuring a body design eliminating the need for a mechanical shutter, the Z 9 lets you release the shutter without a click sound. Fo...
