The good part is it is easy to change modes through a button to get the focus as shown in the images below .The first one shows focus, the second one shows loss of focus in the same AF mode & the third one shows proper focus with a different modeThose AF issues (lock on background or no reacquisition like you describe) do exist even with the A1 and time will tell if the Z9 got those issues resolved. We have seen each camera generation get better - Z6/7 were bad, Z6/7ii improved but still fairly plagued by the issues, R5 and A9ii both much improved but not failure proof, A1 a bit better still but not 100%. We'll have to see if the R3 and Z9 have solved that problem completely or not but with the A1 it usually happens to me once or twice per half-day of shooting
