This is the new Nikon flagship. A breakthrough algorithm developed using deep learning enables the Z 9 to automatically detect and track a wide range of subjects, including people, dogs, cats, birds, cars, motorcycles, bicycles, trains, and planes, in stills and video with no menu changes. Autofocus and auto exposure calculations are made at 120 cycles per second with rapid, constant communication between the lens and the camera through the Z mount. Even small, erratic subjects like birds in flight are tracked with ease. Eye Detection Autofocus automatically tracks the eyes of people, dogs, cats, and birds, even when they’re small in the frame, covered by hair, glasses, or goggles, right-side up or upside down. The power of Nikon’s acclaimed 3D Tracking is now available with deep learning subject detection. Effortlessly lock onto fast-moving subjects and track them moving toward you, away from you, and everywhere in between.
