Z 9

While the Nikon user in me says “Z9 ftw” the space exploration aspect for humanity makes me happy that they got cameras with them regardless of the brand.

Two D5 DSLRs, and one experimental Z9 that is being certified for use on the moon. Z9s are already certified for use in space, they're on the ISS as we speak, but apparently not for the lunar surface. My guess is that the z9 will pass it's tests and by the time the actual landings happen the D5s wil

No one over the age of 16 should be taking social media or 'techtuber' influencers seriously. They're just long form advertisers. Buy whatever suits your needs. I wasn't a fan of Nikon's first gen mirrorless cameras and didn't buy them. But once the Z9/Z8 came out, I was more than happy to switch ov

According to NASA's site they've got a Nikon D5, Nikkor 14-24mm 2.8 ED and the 80-400 f/4.5-5.6 ED VR 10+ year old camera kit there, though certainly nothing bad, they'll get great photos (as already seen!) Kinda wish they'd snuck a Z9 onboard with some modern Z lenses to get even better photos. Tha

Artemis II cameras are vastly superior to Apollo in every way except resolution. They use 4K/8K digital, 30+ internal/external cameras, and handheld Nikon D5/Z9 digital SLRs for sharp, instant and consistent imagery. Apollo relied on analog Hasselblad film cameras, producing incredible detail but re

I just personally love how these astronauts are using two of the most capable cameras produced by Nikon and comparing and contrasting the image quality, and it's not a 15 sec sound byte of some dude who just says "DSLR's are dead! Look, this has a-bajillion Megapixels, and this thing only has 20! Th

No Z8 II soon, it will be at least a year after a Z9II, and the only pro Z cameras (settings banks like you're used to) are the Z8 and Z9. The highest-end DX Z body is the Z50II, which is a D5x00 replacement camera and not nearly up to the pro standards. Why not just send it to Nikon and use their f

"....looking on upgrading to the Nikon Z6ii or Z5ii next year." The Z6II will not feel like much of an upgrade. When you do get around to upgrading, don't bother with anything other than an EXPEED 7 body - they are an order of magnitude better in the AF department. Currently that means a Z50II, Z5II

All speculation. I doubt we will get a z7iii. Nikon expected the z7 and z6 to sell equally well, but the z6 line consistently performed better than the 7 through the first two generations. Given the price difference that will have been disappointing. With the z8/9, they took the more 'traditional' (

Well, I have a couple of D850s still, but I moved to Z9's when they first came out for a few reasons, and it's an absolutely incredible camera. I do a lot of stuff where I really need the speed, and video things where the new features come in handy. And even though most of the current primes were no
