Basically, pending EU trade law will restrict sales of electronic devices, reliant on an internal battery, to only those that can be charged internally via USB-C (ie Power Delivery). Basically, this means cameras can only be sold if they can charged with a plug in USB-C PD cable. Several current...

Hi, all. Two months ago I jumped from Sony to Nikon for a number of reasons, lens selection being the primary reason. The ONE thing I truly miss is the three Custom Shoot Sets that Sony offers (and I'd take more of this invaluable tool); Nikon offers only one. I exhort you to contact Nikon to...

Absolutely love the combination of the Z9 and 800 PF. Anna's Hummingbird taking a drink.

I believe a Z-9 is as good a pro camera as any. After having it for over a year, I know the menu and settings inside and out. Thanks to Steve Perry initially and then lots of perseverance. It's worth it. It's a great tool if you know how to use it and the combinations and creative choices one...

I recently sent my 750 in for premium maintenance WITH a body cap, no battery, no strap and it had a shutter count of around 75k ish. I got back a 750 without a body cap, WITH a battery, WITH a strap and a shutter count of 11k ish… a 50mm 1.8g was included too. This new 750 has a different...

Hi everyone, I recently purchased a Nikon Z9 and excitedly updated it to the 4.0 version of the software. That's the most up-to-date as far as I'm aware. I've had it "freeze" on me twice so far, which I'm not too concerned about (maybe I should be). But I've noticed a bug on a few different...

Has anyone heard if Nikon will be addressing the overheating issue in camera shooting mode? I experienced this (yes it was hot outside), but only taking small bursts of like 5pfs maybe 10fps. And not for like 10 or 20 at a time.

I am going to Lake Clark in Alaska and dealing with equipment travel limitations weight limits on small planes as well as my desire to get the best, sharpest photos of bears possible. I am a dedicated prime lens photographer whose go-to equipment is a Z9 and 800mm PF and previously a 600mm...

Hello, as per the title I'm deciding on my next move in equipment, I'm currently "in-between" my big lens, and as I am relatively new and don't have an endless pocket I can only really afford upgrades far apart. My setup was a D500 and an older 500mm prime, but as the big lens has been returned...

I’m currently a Canon shooter but I’m not particularly happy with the camera and lenses for wildlife. I have a R6 mark II, RF 100-500, 1.4 extender, and 800 f11. I’m looking for a stacked sensor, higher mp, and better glass, so Nikon sounds like a a good choice, particularly with the...

Beware - this a speculative post ;):) .... One gap in the telephoto options of Nikon's Greater Ecosystem is a super telephoto zoom [chart / map appended for comparisons]. Yes, there's the roadmapped 200-600 in Z-mount but as it stands it's not a S Line optic, so we have zero clue about its...

Yesterday I was out to do some shorebird photography with by beloved Nikon 500mm F4. during this session I heard a noise when I opened the diafragma from F8 to F4, after some testing I came to the conclusion that a soft noise appears in the switching from F5.6 till F4 and vice versa. every...

Hi folks, I currently own a Nikon 500 pf that I pair with Z9. I am considering switching to Z 400 f4.5 with 1.4x TC after selling the 500PF. A few Youtube reviews that I have seen suggest that the 400 f4.5 with 1.4x tc in place is considerably sharper than the 500 pf with the added benefit of...

Interesting besides the usual provocative statements by Thom Hogan. Beyond brand differences etc, are old inadequacies that still persist - in Size and Control mainly. Quality has been less issues. I agree it's major aspects of Control that remains unresolved by camera makers...

Hi All, I have been using my Nikon 200 to 500 mm lens for years with no problems.... except I've now noticed that when using Lightroom (Library details of the image) the lens focal length only states 480mm - has anyone any ideas why this should happen? As I say the lens is working fine and...
