I first want to stress that this is my experience when pixel peeping full res Z9 files at 100%.
If I shoot at single point, AF-C, VR on (sport), with 2000 SS handheld while blasting away at 20fps on a well lit, well contrast subject, single point, should I expect (and I stress pixel peeping) reasonable sharpness with little variance across the entire sequence? I'm finding if I get one bang on image, I expect 2-3 slightly off images before I hit another tack sharp one again.
Same scenario while shooting 10fps and I'm getting more (for lack of better term) "keepers". Trust me, even the slightly off images would clean up well if I was really worried about it.
I guess my question is, does the Z9 in AF-C focus have a harder time keeping up with subtle variances (be it slight camera movement, slight subject movement etc...) across 20 fps vs 10 fps. Is this normal expectation? Initially I expected more across the higher frame rate as it's blasting away so fast.
I should add that I'm using telephotos (last test was with z400 4.5 with and without TC...always wide open) with a subject...oh let's say 30 - 40 feet away.
Are my expectations too high? Curious as to others experiences.
If the answer lies in Steve's Z9 book, don't worry, I'll be ordering today. Thanks for the discounted offer Steve.
TIA,
