Not sure if interesting, or where this should be placed - here it is
Yesterday I was notified that 'large wild birds' were in a field a mile from my home. I failed to set my Z9 from last project and totally underexposed the few images of tame chickens. What the heck, try to edit for the fun of it. Photo one is the exposure from camera, 2 is after edit of the Z9 NEF file. Totally amazed me

How many stops you think you added? 4? 5? It's a great sensor.

Thanks... It was very overcast yesterday, shutter speed of 1/160 or 1/200th may have nailed it. Original was a raw file and I did the editing in Adobe Camera Raw.
You can right click the first image, copy and paste drop it into your software, take a look. But that will post as jpg so unlikely it will edit proper
