Z9 V5.0

Note. If the GNSS module's version is 0.7 you need to do the update twice to go to G 0.17 GNSS module update.

Interesting to see how different this update is to the recent Z8 one with pixel shift - Nikon is making a clear distinction between these 2 cameras: Z9 for sports, indoor action and press, with Z8 for landscape, fine details.

Actually Z8 is very similar to that of Z9 in terms of focusing.
New update of firmware is coming for Z8 soon, I'm pretty sure.
Many people use it for Birds,I'm included.
In one source, I don't remember which one, rated Z8 to be the best for Birds and Canon RF 100-500 to be the best lens for Birds.
I have them both but you cannot put them together, LOL. However, I like the Z180-600 and Z 400 f 4.5 very much.
