Anyone still using "lossless compression" image quality with Z9?

Tried HE* again still not for me because I still want to see images in apple preview ... funky personal preference ... otherwise would use HE* ... It has been a long time and no movement to support HE* by Apple.

Pre-capture uses jpegs only, not raw. So unfortunately, HE* is not available for pre-capture now. I have been hoping Nikon might add HE* raw for pre-capture for the Z9 and Z8 in a firmware update, but it hasn’t done so yet.

Tom, I thought that Nikon added pre capture for raw on the last Z9 firmware upgrade? I haven't tried it obviously.

I don't understand. How would using HE* files versus lossless raw change your workflow? Whether you start with a lossless raw of HE* I believe the workflow is the same.....except that moving files from card to computer might be faster?

Fair comments! I probably shouldn't have posted but all I mean is I see no need to change as I am happy where I am and so am just registering for the community that I am still using lossless compressed. I may well change at some point in view of findings on here but at present I don't use so much disc space nor am in such a rush that it has an impact on what I do. When I have time to read up more widely it's possible I'll change. I'm not averse to occasional change ;-) Tbh I mostly shoot film but that's for different types of photography.
