The Nikon Z9 is one of those rare cameras that I bought right at launch, so I’ve been using it for years now.  Today Nikon released yet another firmware update and, needless to say, I am really excited about it.

Every year it seems that there is some major upgrade to the Z9’s already mature firmware, giving us essentially a brand new camera with respect to its functionality.  I hadn’t expected another update so far along the product cycle, but voila! Nikon has given us an early Christmas present.

(For those keeping score, the only other two cameras I’ve ever, ahem, “clicked with” and kept for years were the Nikon D3 and the Leica M9.)
