I have ordered a Z8 and have a rather specific autofocus question for Z9 users, since everything I’ve seen says the autofocus performance is identical to the Z9.
I shoot a lot of osprey’s diving. When they’re in the sky, my Z7 locks on (AF-S Wide with AF sensitivity at 5), when using my 500PF without issue, but when they dive, the camera almost always transfers focus to the trees in the background no matter how much of the bird fills the viewfinder. In similar situations, did your Z9 hold lock on the subject in such an environment? If so, what were your settings for such a situation? Thanks.
