I have never shot sports with either camera but my EVF looks pretty dang steady and smooth (without blackout) shooting outdoors. The aspect ratio looks very similar to me on the image. The extra pane at the bottom looks different. I don't care if the fonts are a little bit more jagged, the image looks good.

I can definately see dropped frames or stuttering but im not sure if its just due to the recorder.... what im getting at with the aspect ratio is the Sony EVF only uses a majority of its pixels for the actual image.... the black bar with the settings at the bottom is full of pixels that are counted toward EVF resolution but really are being used to display info NOT the picture.

I shoot more sports than wildlife and find that every sport like every wildlife shoot is different. Like bears vs birds, football vs volleyball brings a different set of challenges, settings, and practices. I don't know if I will every own a "flagship" camera but I do believe that sports photography can be successfully captured with many of todays DSLRs and MILCs. Yes, I am sure that a Z9 might increase my keeper rate some but I just don't feel like my Z6ii is failing me in sports photography now.
