Post them up I'll start off with what I think is my first "keeper" at one point the subject detect jumped to the fish and seemed to be on the eye.

Its a tough call generally those are more for a person to show off and this is more meant for everyone to post and discuss the Z9 and its output.Nice photo. Wouldn't you put this in one of the presentation gallery sections though?
I'm so glad it seems to handle adapted glass well. I was really worried I would NEED to swap out all my F glass ASAP but now I feel comfortable holding onto it and waiting for deals to come my way
not at all - F lenses work fantastic at Z. Esp with the Z9 and it's focus performance! I have both the 500PF and the 600FL on the Z9 and the focus speed is just as good if not better as it used to be on my trusty old D500 (at least my perception). What I like most is focus accuracy -- no need to do focus fine tuning anymore when changing body or adding a TC Certainly I'll keep all my special F glass. The only one I sold is the F 24-70 2.8 as I'm just too happy with my Z 24-70 f4 which came with my Z6 originally and I just stopped using my 24-70 F.I'm so glad it seems to handle adapted glass well.

How did the Z9 do in that dense foliage? did you use any subject detection or just single point?
That is a bad ass shot. When dealing with that much foliage you nailed incorporating it without it being a distraction. Well done!
Not to bash but i think the top of this image is indicative of a little too much topaz in the processing. Something funky going on in the bark of the tree.Nice shot.
Not starting a brand war however I would say it is safe to say the Sony A1 is the closest camera to the Z9. Here is an image I shot with the A1, 600GM of the same species of bird. It is a fairly similar image and you can tell the Z9 sensor is producing great results.

Yeah I noticed that, posted off my phone saved roll and it does look odd.Not to bash but i think the top of this image is indicative of a little too much topaz in the processing. Something funky going on in the bark of the tree.
Great image! I took a similar shot with the same species of bird a couple months ago with a Sony A1 and 600GM with 1.4x. I would say the results of the Z9 with 500PF and the 1.4TC are pretty outstanding!Red-bellied Woodpecker, Z9, 500pf, x1.4 TC
