    Nikon Z9 Teaser 3 AF tracking box fake (digitally added)

    In the video, Jared states that he reached out to Nikon about the Af tracking in Z9 teaser 3 and that Nikon confirmed that the AF box on the athletes were digitally added in post but based on the EVF recording. It seems factual to me as the AF boxes in Z9 teaser 3 were perfectly plastered to...
