Posted on by

DPReview published the Nikon Z9 mirrorless camera review and test results: the new Nikon Z9 achieves an excellent 94% overall score and Gold Award from the experts at DPReview.

Nikon Z9 Key Features:

  • 45.7-megapixel stacked CMOS sensor
  • Nikon Z mount
  • 5-in 3690k-dot (Quad VGA) OLED electronic viewfinder
  • AF scene detection system
  • 8K Video resolution and internal recording
  • Fast 120 fps shooting
  • Dual card slots
  • Fast scanning speeds
  • Integrated vertical grip

Conclusion from DPReview:

The Nikon Z9 is perhaps the most complete camera we’ve ever tested. It shoots excellent 45MP images at up to 30fps (20 with Raw), it captures 8K video in everything from 8-bit MP4s to 12-bit N-Raw. Its autofocus system is both powerful and easy to use and works well for both stills and video. It’s larger and heavier than some of its rivals, which make it less well suited to some applications, but overall it combines the best of a DSLR and a video camera in a single body.

Good for

Sports, photojournalism, wedding and events, video

Not so good for

Travel photography where size and weight are critical.

Nikon Z9 Body: $5,496.95 at Amazon, B&H, Adorama.
