Size: Z9 vs D500 with Battery grip?

[AstroEd]

Would anyone here have access to the Z9 and a D500 with the battery grip? I would love to see a size comparison between the 2. I have the D500 with grip and it is harder to get in and out of my camera bag now, and wonder if the Z9 would have the same issue.

Thanks, I need to rethink my partitions in my bag going forward. And I actually found that link almost immediately after posting this question By the way can I have a battery in the D500 body AND the battery grip? or just the grip when it is attached?

With the D500, you can have a battery in both.

You can also program which battery you'd like the camera to use first and have the other as back-up. For my D850, I have the camera using the EN-EL18c battery in the grip (ease of access) and the EN-EL15c in the body for the "just-in-case" situations.

Might upgrade from camera bag to a camera backpack.

Get a bigger bag. I have 4 different shoulder bags of varying sizes for the various combinations of cameras and lenses I plan to take out in the field. I have 3 different sizes of backpacks as well.

Easy to measure your camera and lens and determine the ideal inside dimensions for a new bag. Then go to the B&H website and use their filters for width and depth and height to get a small selection and then check the reviews by people who have bought the bags.
